IM 5'5" 146 LBS. I would like to be 135LBS, that is where I am comfortable. Im having a hell of a time though. Ive only lost 3 LBS in a month.

just start saying you eat Paleo-ish. LOL so you won't get so much scrutiny

I love my Planet Fitness. It has great cardio machines and a good selection of free weights. Its always super clean. I guess it depends on what you want the gym for. I just like to lift weights and do a little cardio so its perfect. I don't want to spend a crap ton of money on a gym that offers a bunch of classes that I…

I eat gluten free and low sugar. Mainly because gluten and sugar cause me tummy troubles like you wouldnt believe. For example today i had Bob's Mill Gluten Free Oatmeal with a scoop of cookies and cream protien powder 3 fajita sized corn tortillas with black bean salsa, avacodo and sour cream 2 Brown rice cakes (lightly…

I hate the free pizza and the free bagels they give out. Stupid. Why would I want to work out and then on the way out grab pizza? May as well go home and sit on the couch. However the tootsie rolls have helped me a couple of times when my sugar suddenly dropped and i needed sugar quick!

I am a member and I really like it. There is a lot of cardio equipment, I never have to wait for it. They have a special room for abs and streching and a 12 minute ab circuit room and a 30 minute full body circuit room. They also have free weights and smith machines. Im a big fan of it because I lift weights and do cardio.…

I too have been cutting down on sugar. Trying to do less than 30 grams a day. It is not easy since everything has sugar in it!! Its insane!! But I have had tummy troubles all my life and since I cut sugar, I have a lot less pain! The hardest for me was my coffee....but now Im used to just using cream!

I absolutely love this!! Fantastic!!!

Ive always read that you should have 1/2 to 1 gram of protein per pound you weight depending on your activity level. I try and reach my body weight in protein on days that I weight train. On days that I don't weight train I still eat high protein (keeps you full and satisfied) but I usually don't have a protein shake if I…

I dont think it matters!! I get off of work at 5pm and then go to the gym right after. Im usually not walking in the door until 6:30-6:45. Then I must shower prepare dinner and pack my lunch. Im usually not eating until 7:30-8:00. And Im 125 pounds and fit so I really don't think time matters!!!

Im at 130 this morning. However, Im not feeling well and havent really eaten or exercised in 3 days...so I dont think this number counts! lol. Prior to this weekend I was 134.

I am going to a baseball game tonight (beer, nachos, hot dogs OH MY!) :drinker: And then my family reunion tomorrow! (ribs, pasta, etc...) So Monday will be rough lol!!! Good luck to you!

Here! Yes, we can call me Katt!! Weigh in on Monday huh....sheesh

i wouldn't mind a Trent Reznor Marilyn Manson sandwich....nope....wouldn't mind one bit...:smokin:

hahahaha! yes!

Im a Marilyn Manson fan....mmmmm....LOVE HIM.

Im with these guys. Just add some more calorie dense items that are also nutritious. Peanut butter for sure! Almonds, walnuts etc...Even instead of Italian dressing, make your own with extra virgin olive oil! Add some cheese to your eggs in the morning...these things wont neccesarily fill you up, but they will up your…

I throw it in everything. Soups, salads, pastas. Plus sauteeing it with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper and crushed red pepperflakes--OMG so good!!!

I started on Jackie Warner as well. The one on one is great so is the Total Body Circuit. I must admit I hated the Extreme workout!! I also love Cindy Whitmarsh. She has great ab dvd's!

It only took about a week for me. I was stuck at my weight for months. I upped my goals from 1200 to 1500 and a week later I had lost 2 pounds.

Do whatever makes you feel best. I actually split mine up. Cardio either in the morning or at lunch, then I lift weights after work. There are also days I will just do cardio and no weights and vise versa.

I use one or two scoops of GNC Pro Performance 100% Whey Protein powder (chocolate) with 1 frozen banana and water in the large cup for the Magic Bullet. I use the Criss cross blades, not the flat ones. It is so yummy!! Tastes like a chocolate banana milkshake...no lie! Its my motivator to work out hard. If I dont have a…

I use Aussie!! Shampoo, conditioner and leave in conditioner spray. My hair is so soft, shiny and smells great!!!

I totally support vegetarians and vegans. I just can't do it. No...I probably could but I don't wanna. I love meat. And besides, didn't cavemen and early humans eat meat? I dont know cause I wasn't there lol. But i believe they did and that humans have always eaten meat. I could be wrong but I dont really care lol. Im very…

Wow...I really wish I hadn't read this thread...especially while eating. *gags* lol. Well, Im new to running-well lets be honest, it takes me 12-14 minutes to do a mile. Im a trotter lol- and have not had this happen yet....ewwwww.

LMAO....I posted the same thing a few weeks ago. I suck. I just give in...but drink lots of water! I try not give in completely!! But if I want chocolate NOTHING is gonna stop me !! lol

My dad's been drinking almost a 2 liter of diet coke a day since he was in his 20's...He's now 60 and fit as a fiddle. Now...I don't know whats going on inside his body from all of that....lol. However, he is not overweight. He was overweight for a period of time and just changed his diet *except for the diet coke* and he…

Am I too late? Oops...I should have read all the posts before I butted in...sorry!

hahahaha...im always on here while Im at work avoiding things lol. Im currently doing Cathe Fredriech's Slow and Heavy weights workout. I do cardio (ick) when I have to...I hate it. I try and jog 1-3 miles a day. Well Monday-Friday. Saturdays and Sundays I dont workout....I have to have a life!! lol
