You can actually incorporate weight loss and muscle training together and still have success on both. Weight lifting is actually what's going to make your body fat percentage change. You could be at your goal weight but still have a high body fat percentage. Weight lifting helps build muscle which can up the scale but will…

Texas Roadhouse actually originated in Indiana where I'm from but been in San Angelo, TX for about 3 1/2 years now.

Those are great results for 30 days. You should be extremely proud!!!:flowerforyou:

I had mine done when I was 23. I have a daughter and a son and knew that I didn't want anymore. It's a personal preference so as long as you are sure it's what you want then it shouldn't be an issue.

I'm 5'4 and my goal weight was 135 but I've passed that and am at 129. I don't really feel like I need to go any lower than this and now do mostly strength training.

I don't think my lifts are anything spectacular by any means I just try and go higher every workout but if I can't I don't sweat it. I'm on Stage 3 and completely love the structure of the book. Thank you!

I got to Golds and pay 20 a month. Includes all classes and up to two hours of childcare a day.

I'm trying this recipe out today. Great thing to have for a snack or dessert as long as it turns out haha... http://shrinkingjeans.net/2010/11/peanut-butter-banana-bread/

Right now it would be because it's been about 110 degrees outside in Central Texas and I'm not willing to risk heat stroke to be outside.

I just started New Rules of Lifting for Women and so far love it. I do go to the gym so use the weights there but they do give you at home options for a lot of the exercises. Also some suggestions on items you can invest in if you plan on staying at home to do your strength training.

We have a bod pod available at the base we're located at.

I customize my protein because I personally think the goal that mfp sets for you are way to low. Especially if you are doing strength training.

Everyone looks so great :)!

Where did you get the super cute two piece?! [/quote] I got the bottoms from Marshall's and the top from Wet Seal

i can see your abs. i'm jelly! [/quote] They are a work in progress but thank you!

Just got my hair done and a new two piece. Ready for vacation!

You can tell there is such a difference. Congrats on what you've accomplished so far!

The banana cream is delicious! I just ordered strawberry banana so I'm hoping that's good.

I love banana cream. I don't use it as a meal replacement just after a workout but if you added things to it I'm sure it would be plenty filling.

That is amazing! It brought tears to my eyes but was well worth watching.

My husband had PRK surgery a couple of months ago. They take the top layer of tissue off your cornea with that surgery and sometimes it can take longer to heal then lasik but he's so happy with it. He could barely see anything if he didn't have contacts or glasses in and now has no issues.

I personally would recommend upping your calories so that you don't feel the need to overeat. If this is something you want to maintain be realistic in the fact that 1200 calories isn't going to be something that lasts forever.

Off topic but I had to say I loved the Purdue shirts!

The imgs need to be lower case otherwise everything else was fine

I don't have as much to lose as some so I can't speak for all. I do eat most of mine back though. I plateaued and upped my calories and actually started losing more then I was losing in the first place. I don't necessarily eat all of them but everyday I try to eat some of them back. I'm working on building muscle and doing…

Thanks for this thread. I'm doing the one in OH in June and these are some great tips!

I'm still working on it but have really noticed a major difference with strength training and core classes.
