I retract my response and am now standing behind this one.

I'm definitely a lot of eggs. I'll leave the actual answer to your question to better people.

Any time I go overboard, I spend the next day drinking plenty of water and watching my sodium. I don't starve myself or work out so much harder that it feels like a punishment, but I do put in a little more effort. Just be good to yourself. Be mindful the following day. Log it, and learn from it.

If she dumps her genius boyfriend, she'll definitely lose weight.

Looks like a whole lot of this went around this weekend. I know I wasn't the only one on my feed regretting various life choices this weekend.

Oooouucch that does not sound okay at ALL. See your doctor right away.

It's pretty simple, I'm on week two. Example of the first month/phase Monday: Phase 1/Workout 1 Tuesday: Phase 1/ Workout 2 Wednesday: Cardio Thursday: Phase 1/Workout 1 Friday: Phase 1/Workout 2 Saturday: Cardio Sunday: Rest You repeat this for two weeks, then follow the same routine for Phase 1/Workouts 3 & 4 for the…

Okay 14-15 packs a week? Sure.

Well you're no fun.

Sympathy, no.

This sounds like a nightmare for anyone within a 1 mile radius of you.

Oookay. Perhaps its how you get messed up. For me, my goal weight is just a general goal for me. There's a certain weight where I feel like I'm in control and feel balanced and generally healthy and comfortable. Is this a perfect number? No. Probably not. But it's like my North Star. It's not any exact way of getting to my…

Good work! I totally get the length thing. When I gain weight, it goes straight to my thighs, and all my skirts/pants hike up too much. I'm finally wearing certain dresses to work again because it no longer looks inappropriate. :X

This sounds like what happened to me way back when, and I had no idea how I'd managed it. thought it was a happy accident that at 5'4 I was 133 lbs and still fitting into small/xsmall clothes. I'm gonna keep an eye on this thread as I get closer to GW, so I can do this with intention this time around.

I used to donate about every other month or so. Only special thing I did after donating was have a Coke and then eat when I got home. I don't think I'd log it as burning calories at all.

Jack: Cookie in the middle of the day? Liz: I gave blood! Jack: Does that burn calories?

I just bled on my new running shoes yesterday. But this happens to me with basically any friggin' shoe I buy. Luckily, I have Furiosa as a running commentary in my head from here on into eternity/Valhalla: Everything hurts out here. Now pick up what you can, and run.

I'm not very overweight (just a 10-15lbs goal, of which I'm down nearly 9), and made the mistake of explaining why I didn't partake of the offfice cupcakes. You'd think I told them I want to amputate both of my legs. "YOURE SKINNY YOU DONT NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT WHATS WRONG WITH YOU" then of course some commentary about how…

*stars this*

Not unusual, whenever I increase my cardio I immediately get hungrier. However, I tend to get the bulk of my carbs and protein in my breakfast and lunch, do my cardio in the evenings, and then my dinner is mostly protein with some sort of fat to satiate and keep me from running back into the kitchen in the wee hours. Not…

I haven't taken pictures of my legs, but I noticed just last night my thighs are slimming down for sure. I have the fat knee thing too, but I don't care. I like my monster legs.

I'm like 80/20 on cooking vs eating out. Diary is open.

I'm gonna agree that 76g of carbs is kind of on the high end, but I guess it depends on your nutritional goals, yeah?

WITNESS ME, BLOOD BAG

This whole time I thought men were afraid of feminism because their tenuous grasp on the concept masculinity might be threatened, when in reality it's words. They're afraid of words.

I think I found my online girlfriend.

College. This one's in college.

Shhh.... I think he thinks he hurt my feeling.

That guy up there is the reason I generally work out at home. Men, come get your friend and take him back to his mother.
