Sidenote to original thread poster ';): I had heard this once before and was so happy to get a refresher! Thanks :D

Hey dear, It's defn the stress to blame for the creep up I would say! Cortisol has a huge effect on the body and when ure stressed, it gets released more than normally. Personally and no matter what I do, when stress attacks come, the weight parks itself rt there or increases. As soon as the stress eases up, so does the…

u look amazing, congratulations!! my q is, wat types of exercses were you doing from Jan up until April 2011? cause i personally think u looked good before u even started the program lol were u doing a mix of weights and cardio? I want to start the program but I don't think im physically capable yet of doing it, i can only…

Why would you want to live a life that is absent of all the foods you love? I sure wouldn't!! Go ahead and have a slice there's a difference between enjoying what you love in a small portion and letting it all loose and eating the entire pizza yourself. Balance is key! Also, opt for the healthier options when ure making…

as many have said, the problem prolly lies on the food/nutrition side of things...i find it always does :( u might be eating 1400 calories but make sure they are good ones, protein, good carbs and some fat! - grab that water bottle and keep guzzling, dehydration makes the body hold onto water weight, see if increasing ure…

Like the others have said, it depends unfortunately where you store it but 'they' (don't we love 'THEM') say on average 1 size = 20lbs, that might explain ure situation :( Depressing, I know!!!! lol Keep it up though, eventually the denser muscle you will gain will work in your favor!! :)

I hope C25K is as nice to me as it is to you, you look great keep it up!! So inspiring thank you for posting! :)

i bookmarked it, many thanks :)

add away! i visit the site daily! :)

I was looking for this type of thing just today! Needed the names of various exercises! Thank you so much for the resource! :)

Hi there! I do the elliptical pretty much the same amount that you do but i found this helped ne jump start the thigh thinning process (ps I'm pear shaped too) 1. Add in strength training of the legs, increasing lean muscle mass will help rev the metabolism and burn calories - start doing the lunges, squats, inner/outer…

Hey there If u plan and foresee this as happening and u structure ure exercise to accommodate late eating then enter into Friday's plan. Personally, the midnight hours are when the unplanned junk food and/or binges make their appearance, so it's advantageous for me to enter these foods in the Saturday plan. Doing so forces…

add away! i don't always comment on daily food diaries but i log on everyday :)

take as long as you need! this is not a race, you are working out for you - this is about you, your goals and your health. forget about the 'formal' schedule and tweak it to accommodate your level. if you gotta do week 1 over again, by all means do it again! yah it mt take u longer to see results (the basic calories burned…

hey there! performing only cardio exercises will make you lose muscle for sure. After about 35 mins most of your glucose stores are expended and the body looks to the muscles to generate fuel to sustain the workout., hence the muscle loss. You need to build up the muscles with weight both to improve the efficiency of the…

I don't work overnight but I'm an night - owl!! It's 12:45 here, still early in my books! :)

awesome thank you, ure all awesome!! :)

same thing for me today! i still have 500 cals left over to 'use', i'm not hungry and it's 9pm BUT there's a chip bag in the pantry that can mend this situation...oh so easily... lol Should we do it just cause we can?? I think it will lead us to slip back into old habits quickly, seriously. There is an element of truth in…

hi there, unfortunately i don't have an answer to ure question but i have noticed this happens to me too... i predict it might be 1 of 2 things which might offer insight for your situation: 1. i have poor circulation in my hands and feet and exercising is the only time where they get bright bright red from extra blood…

LOL this is fabulous I love it!!! Seriously to the original poster - douchebaggery is rampant!! lol I can't believe the egos of some of the people at these gyms, good gawd. It's like, thanks for sharing ure opinion buddy, too bad I didn't ask for it! lol

I personally wouldn't stress, the initial weighing is irrelevant, the important point is to see a decline in numbers from whichever is your starting point. If you continue to use the work one, than you won't have to do anything. If you start using the new digital one, weigh yourself starting from there and keep on going. A…
