Wow. You stomach and arms look more toned. There is def a difference.

I love the fitbit! I use both (obviously). I use MFP for food and fitbit for activities they sync up with eachother. The only thing is that the fitbit will tell MFP the amount of calories burned for the day for exercises and MFP tells the fit bit all the macros and cals for each meal (not the food itself though). MFP- food…

Thanks guys :) I feel a bit better. It just stinks when I am working my tail off in the gym to see my bf% go up....grrrr. I try to think nothing of it because I don't typically trust its accuracy. Thanks again :)

You are NOT old!!! LOL. And she was probably right ;)

You look amazing!

Totally agree!

ME, ME!!!! April 14th here :)

Thank you for your responses! Much appreciated. I am considering getting some, but I am a vegetarian so I look closely at the amount of protein in stuff. (protein is the most difficult for me to get, but when I actually track, I am always on or above protein goal). Thanks again!

Honestly, I think it is genetics. Just like pregnancy, there are some moms who get NO stretch marks and their skin and belly is mostly normal after giving birth, there are other moms who get tons of stretch marks and will always have some saggy skin on their belly. Don't listen to anyone that says "oh, you didn't apply…

Thank you for your story :) I have back issues. You are a motivation.

Thanks! I haven't done a whole lot of ab exercises standing up! I will def try. (and yes, crunches, planks, v-sits all make me wanna puke, but today I did planks and v-sits)

Thanks! I should add that not eating a good b-fast is not normal for me. I had a lot of self-imposed time pressure. First we woke up late. Then I wanted to walk to the gym (which is 1.5 miles from my house), but here is the thing, my gym has child care until noon on Saturdays, so I had to make it there in time to get my…

I was at a conference and we were talking about work-life-balance. Someone said--- Your first priority has to be you. There is no work-life-balance if you are dead.

Thanks! I will have to try that! Maybe if I get more protein that will help. :)

Well, this morning I ate some almonds and drank a bunch of water and walked 1.5 miles to the gym. The abs portion of my work out was at the end. hmmmmm.

Bump....

Not helpful, but my thought is "Yummmmm" and my stomach is saying "growl growl...feed me...feed me some sweetcorn"
