Lifter here too! Been lifting since July 15th, 2014. I couldn't imagine not being in the gym. Now it's time for me to take my diet a little more seriously. Feel free to FR me.

I ended up using the gym time as my alone time, break time and even when I needed time to think things through. You have to enjoy what you are doing. So find an exercise activity that you like and stick to it. Whether it's walking, running, zumba, yoga or lifting...just get up and go do it. :) Good luck!

I tried dating and that failed horribly. I either get told I'm too busy because I have children or because I spend "too much time in the gym". ;) This is normally from men that have children of their own and won't go out on a date when they have their child(ren). Excuse me, single parent here, their father is NOT in the…

I wear black leggings and go commando. Thongs aren't the most comfortable things, I hate panty lines with regular underwear even those that aren't supposed to show and commando is just more comfortable at those times.

These pics were taken from June 2014 through last night (10/14/14). I started really working the SL5x5 program on July 15th. This past month I have been really focused on eating better. I love the program! It gave me the confidence to keep going since I wasn't starting at a weight that was too heavy. The progression was…

Bump for later.

I would love to go to the gym with the guy I'm seeing but when he benches 2.5x my weight as a workout and I can barely put up 80#, he's a little intimidating. Although I may have to give it a shot. It might be pretty fun. Most of the time I do go alone though. I like the alone time but it would be nice to have a spotter…

I was told that if you are able to remain friends with an ex after the relationship is over then it's one of 2 things: 1. You were never in love with them to begin with. 2. You still are. I will have to concur with this statement.

I will be the Cat in the Hat and my two daughters will be Thing 1 and Thing 2. :)

I'm going to go with 50 miles this month. Hoping I get more but this is a start. I'm trying to incorporate running into my lifting routine.

8 although I live in a house full of girls so there are at least 20 sports bras floating around our house between me, my 11 year old and my 8 year old.

I eat as soon as possible after my morning workout and getting my girls shuffled off to school.

I'm in! Doin it for the vine! lol

My best friend asked how my workouts were going so I sent him a picture and his immediate response was "WOW". He then apologized and said I look great and he needs to get back in the gym. Everything since the 3rd grade has been a competition between he and I. lol

I was never one that had great company with "the girls" I was and still am an A/B cup. Thank goodness the boyfriend is a "leg/booty man" cause I would be in trouble.

You do your thing and I will do mine. Mine consists of a calorie deficit, weight lifting and minimal cardio. I prefer it that way. :flowerforyou:

I have two daughters, one named Danni after my Dad who's name is spelled Dannye and the other is named Leeyah after my grandfather's middle name of Lee. With that said, if I ever had a son I would name him Lincoln Michael. I always liked the name Linc cause I thought it was cute. After watching Prison Break, I decided that…

I can't remember since it's been so long since I have said it for the first time. The "casual boyfriend" and I have been together since March. We have both mentioned that we truly care about each other, we have both said that a "love" for each other has been established, we throw out the "you love me anyway" line, but…

I went about 6 weeks before I hit a wall on the weight progression. Since then my progression hasn't been as steady.

Does your tablet have GPS on it? If so then you probably could. But as far as banking on making money off of Pact? Don't bet on it. Yes it pays you for going but not like it dings you for not going. You have to be at the gym for at least 30 minutes. Not a big deal unless you have a really short work out day or short on…

I skipped yesterday and regretted it all day. I don't go to the gym in the evenings because those are spent at home with my girls. Didn't feel like going this morning and I was running late. But I got up, got to the gym and glad I did now. I feel like I accomplished something for others got out of bed. After it became my…

Some of them may require you to purchase their "pro" version in order to compare.

Inactivity and not eating right were why. I put on 20 lbs with my second pregnancy and didn't lose it like I had with my first pregnancy. Plus the office job cause me to put on 20 more lbs since I wasn't up and moving around. Single mom to young kids and not making much made it difficult for me to exercise. Then I married…

I'm a 0600 person. I get up at 0530 to get ready to go to the gym. I prefer the early mornings because I spend the evenings with my kids and whatever they want to get into.

Get'em girl! :flowerforyou:
