I'm with you. I would LOVE more breakfast suggestions. Typically I have 3 egg whites + 1 yolk and Ezekiel Bread... Or 1 serving of oatmeal and the same eggs.... Or a pack of plain instant grits and the same eggs. Lunch suggestions: - Grilled chicken breast, black beans and a small salad - Grilled chicken wrap (wheat) with…

Good job! Keep up the good work.

HA! Knowing my hubby he'd suggest me seeing that movie alone or with some girlfriends. There's no way on God's green Earth he'd even suggest goin' with me to see that movie. Lol! You couldn't pay this fool to see half naked men prancing around on a stage.

Yes, I feel the same way sometimes. I've tried switching up my rest days, taking vitamins (I'm vitamin D2 deficient), and yoga/sauna/hot bath. This helped a little but there are still those days when I feel spent. Sometimes I'll take a couple days back-to-back just to give my body a chance to re-energize itself. I've never…

I believe we all have those days. In my mind I weigh 200lbs more than what I really am. On those days when I feel heavy/fat ((after sulking & feeling pity for myself)) I stick with my routine. First thing is to stop weighing yourself everyday... Or every week... Or bi-weekly. Try to stay off that scale for at least a…

If you're loading up on protein I sure pray you're getting a healthy dosage of fiber. The porcelain throne will not be a pleasant visit if you have to sit & strain. Hehe! Honestly, I go over on my protein a tad bit on those days I workout. Only because I know I need to start repairing the muscles I've just worked out. How…

Great job!!

Going down very VERY very slowly. I've lost side boob & a lil off the chest -- but I'm still a 36DD. Now, I would love for them to go down to a nice C cup. So, I've been doing lots of upper-body exercises like chest, shoulders, back, biceps & triceps. Obviously, it's working because I was able to fit a sports bra I haven't…

SMH. You're right about that... family will be the FIRST to call you out. They'll be the first to call you fat and when you begin to get smaller they think you're sick--then immediately want to offer you food. I understand where you coming from though. My family is the exact same way. Unfortunately, my boobs are the last…

I think there's a difference from being just plain sloppy and being dolled up. Sloppy, in my opinion, is seeing people in the gym with raggedy or not properly fitted clothing and didn't even bother to spruce up any before they hit the gym. I think the code should be wear deodorant, wash those private areas if needed, wash…

I tell myself to work hard and finish now so I won't have to do it later. I can take a day off if I just finish it now.

Thanks for the responses. :smile: On those days I workout I try to drink as much fluid as I can. I also take a bottle of water with me to the gym. After any workout I have a smoothie with protein. Also, I do not weigh myself right after I workout.

That is true. Weightlifting will make you HUNGRY. That's because your metabolism will be higher. But aside from just cardio weightlifting is essential. It helps your bones and guard against other injuries. However, the week I decide to take body pump or strength training classes I'm heavier. I feel heavy. So, I do not…

When my body reached a plateau I changed up my workout. Your body is getting used to the same routine. Sometimes keeping the body in shock can help out because it's not getting used to the same old. Lifting weights would be a good idea too. Although most women think it will bulk them up.... it doesn't. It actually helps to…
