It is exaggerated, but if the poster keeps eating less than 1000 calories a day, she'll eventually get into starvation mode.

1. Have a bit of brown rice or whole wheat pasta with lunches 2. use full fat dressings (or make your own using olive oil) 3. Avocados, fish, almonds, dark chocolate, and the above-mentioned olive oil all have monounsaturated fat which brings your bad cholesterol down and is good for your heart. These are all high-calorie,…

1. Body "cleansing" 2. No carbs 3. Lifting heavy makes women look like a bodybuilder .....................................................................................................

Technically..... yes, buuuuuuuut...... There are a million different answers we could all give you. For instance, if you are a runner, you should probably keep lots of carbs in your diet. Or, if you're lifting alot of weights you should eat your body weight in grams of protein everyday. Like others above said, it's a…

Greetings friends! I'm Hanna....I'll be 35 years old in July. Mother of four, ages: 14, 11, 8, and 2. I work full-time and hit the gym on my lunch hour. I started heavier lifting back in October but I've recently felt like my program needed some guidance. Then I got NROL for Christmas and here I am. My first workout was…

Haha! Hey Beeps, I swear i just opened that link before i came back to check this topic. i found the link on the Stage 1 topic that is tacked at the top of our group forum. i guess after reading through some posts, it seemed like this program may be geared towards body recomp and not fat loss. I DO realize i would be…

EXCELLENT info. Thank you. (Just started program Monday.............)

Thanks gals... Now, at some point I'm going to have to figure out how I'm going to manage a workout that's longer than one hour. i use my lunch break to go to the gym, and i really can't take more than an hour......... cross that bridge later.

Thanks for asking this ? I just started and i'm freaked out at the thought of eating anywhere near maintenance since I still have 30 lbs. to lose. I realize we'll be gaining muscle and the scale may go up a bit. I'm fairly educated on the matter, so why do i still feel confused?? It seems contradictory..........

Here's the link for the group (just found it myself). Looks like there is some helpful info here... http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/102-new-rules-of-lifting-for-women-nrol4w

I just started today, and i have to admit that the prone jacknife was VERY hard to do. It was hard to mount and dismount (?) LOL!!! But i got through it without killing myself. We'll be doing these workouts for 6 weeks, so i'm sure we will get the hang of it. Wanna be friends?!!

lifting weights? makes a HUGE difference.

do squats instead...

^^^ I'm sorry, but this is freaking hilarious. And i have to admit, i agree (by just a smidge). Let it go.........

Just saying 'great job' or 'way to go' REALLY isn't enough here. You did an extremely difficult thing, and I hope you are so proud of yourself for reclaiming what was lost! Pure dedication and a true inspiration.

how do you prepare your butternut squash? I'd like to add that to my "try" list....

It was hard for me until I stayed dedicated for a few weeks, then YES, it did get easier/better. Now, I'm about 3-4 months into regular exercise and I seriously get grouchy if I can't get a daily workout in. If you told me i would ever say something like that, i previously would have laughed in your face!!! and on the food…

Let me also add that i could seriously fall in love with this device. I shall report back after i have calmed down and used it for a week or so.

start lifting weights.... and lift HEAVY!!

BAHAHAAAAAAAAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAA. that's awesome.

I really L.O.V.E. hearing all of your personal journies.............keep 'em coming please!!

TinaDay.........THANK YOU for that. Very inspirational indeed. And tell your friend, that I may adopt her idea of the forearm grunt words!!!!

Solid info, John...THANKS!

LOL!! Thank you for your straightforward answers ;0)

I'm such a beginner that running 5 miles seems so far away! but i WILL get there. And, my pretty long-legged friend, race we SHALL.......................WARRIOR DASH 2012!!! (And maybe a 5k before that???????????????)

MY LEG DAY IS ALMOST IDENTICAL TO YOURS...... you gave me some really great info to look back on...

Well, i won't always be doing chest twice. It's a rolling schedule, so wherever i leave off I pick back up. Like this: (week 1) M- CHEST/TRICEPS T- LEGS/SHOULDERS W- CARDIO/CORE TH- BACK/BICEPS F- CHEST/TRICEPS SAT- CARDIO/CORE SUN- REST(week 2) M- LEGS/SHOULDERS T- BACK/BICEPS W- CARDIO/CORE TH- CHEST/TRICEPS F-…

you look FANTASTIC!! I'm around 150 now, and can't wait to get to where you are now. Great work!

i've also used the dry shampoo and yeah, it helps SOME. My hair is also thick and curly, and the minute i start to sweat it gets mad frizzy. The only other thing i've used is these Victoria Secret hair refresher wipes. It's like a towelette, and smells great. They worked a little better than the dry shampoo, but not enough…
