Back before life, work, and injuries shut me down. I did cardio everyday. Sometimes before weights and sometimes after. All depended on how hard I wanted to push myself each day. On leg days I only did about 30 minutes of light cardio max, to warm up my legs before lifting. Other days I would PUSH the Intensity of my…

i've never done a green smoothie.this has spinach in it,so hope it counts. today will be my 1st go at it. it will be for breakfast it will contain. 1 scoop muscletech protein powder choc or vanilla not sure on flavor yet (protein source) 1 banana (potasium) 3/4 cup baby spinach will probably do a whole cup…

my 1st time around i lost 54lbs by watching what i ate and doing c25k. all in about 7 months. it can be done without the gym.

BOTH! i usually i have a protein shake and a banana(not all the time) at least 30 minutes before my workout, need some fuel for the workout. afterwards, i try to eat as soon as possible. usually about 30 minutes to an hour after.need to refuel after the workout. also helps with the recovery. sometimes i'll have another…

CONGRATS and best of luck on your gym membership. take it slow and staedy,don't over do it and end up getting hurt. search around and find a workout routine to follow. i prefer one i can print out and take to the gym with me. that helps me keep track of my progress and on track with my workouts. i also suggest some very…

i haven't ran into this issue yet, but was thinking the other day about giving my body a break for a couple of months and just try to maintain my weight. just to see how my body would react.

inches for me as well. my 1st go around at losing weight,i got down to 206 from 260+.mainly lost it by running and eating right. stopped running during the winter(injury) and put most of it back on,got back up to 245 :( this time around i added weight trianing and some cardio(bad knee still).i'm down to 218 but size wise…

I've been reading about it as well and was wondering if anybody here has tried it.

heres one i make once in a while. 1 banana,can be frozen 1 tbs natural low sodium peanut butter 1/2 box fat free instant butterscotch pudding mix protein powder of choice, vanilla or chocolate flavor. i like either way 1 cup skim milk or water, your choice ice for thickness

Request sent. Anybody can add me as well. Need a push to get back in track with my weightloss goal

CONGRATS!!! on the achievements. 2 thumbs up. looks like you've put on some lean muscle in place of the fat. i've managed to lose just under 30 lbs .my gut hasn't gone down much but,i do have a problem keeping my jeans up now(a problem i can happily deal with) and can see a difference in my face.will be starting some…

i like all da boobies,i'm not a picky person :) .i see nothing wrong with a lift or reduction to help with back problems,or even a little enlargement for self confidence. the thing i don't like is when some ladies get them so big that they are not proportionate to their body.that is a big(pun intended) turn-off for me.no…
