Over a yr ago y'all posted.. are you still here..? I love it and just started!

Feel free to add me! I'm doing the Spartan Super April and looking to reboot my physique again after taking last year off!

Hey there! I'm currently training for the Super at the end of April, it will be my 2nd ( did my first in 2014 and then took a year off - got married )

Took my Level 1 Krav Maga class again after a long Hiatus and a insanely intense MixFit where I did 2, yes TWO pull ups.... then had to static hold that for EVER.. ok 10 or so seconds likely more like 5 Stronger, faster, leaner every day!!!!

BUMP I want to see MORE!!! Keeps me inspired!!!

You know it!

I was doing pretty good until today...Although I think I have had 4 days where I either choose to eat foods that trigger or plain ole binged in the past 3 months. Prior to getting serious I was out of control, daily/weekly .. was awful I have been slipping lately, and even though I don't like the food all that much or the…

Great advice!! Thank you! I am praying 4 months is sufficient time so I can get my arm strength up and do rapid fire burpees!!!

Question on the Super race.. does it (usually) have the cold water dip?

So encouraging to hear.. what is a Burmese? Is that like a burpee?

I'm doing the Spartan Super in May and would love to have some additional support! Their emails, workouts are intense! I am currently doing the 30 day challenges they send - 30 days of 30 burpees, 1 mile a day.. and I do a lot of Krav Maga workouts.. need more arm strength so I can do some pull ups so could use some help…

count me in!

Hahaha have to laugh!! I am painfully shy when I get attention.. so I usually trip, look down, blush and bolt.. if a conversation ensues then I am sure to say something completely ridiculous.! I do need to get better at shoving off the creepers .. ugh

I'm 5'3" and started at 160 (my heaviest ever) I had been hovering around 143 then 148 then 154 and I had enough. When I started I did not think I would make it past day 1... One day at a time!!!! I am not at my goal weight but not I feel absolutely AMAZING. Did not know that it could feel so great to try on clothes when…

I love these!

I did great on Atkins until I got addicted to Atkins bars, shakes.. etc.. then I just abused those foods like I did candy /junk previously (suddenly everything I wanted had sugar alcohol) Had to deal with binging and then could do low carb correctly. It does work, but for me my character/behaviors had to change

So true, would love to see a picture :) I really enjoyed P90x when I did it too.. I want to get my BF down down down

Oh I like this thread! I'm 5'3" and currently 135lbs and yesterday officially joined the size 4 club ... with a small top. :) This was taken last night as my transformation nears completion!!

This made me laugh because I totally get it!! I remind myself that I DECIDE when, where, how and what I will eat, not my crazy sugar ogre which behaves exactly like a crack addict! My "tricks" besides changing the thinking: 1. Having a 90% Cocoa square with fresh almond butter and planning when I am going to have it. It…

Absolutely agree with JJJJ25 and Geekyjock76. The more friends you have that have been there and recovered the better :) The websites posted are great! Thankfully there is a more knowledge than before for this, sounds like you are on the right track indeed, congratulations!!

Thanks Xvinatepearl! That totally makes sense. So do you do 'after burn' measurements too? I see that sometimes.

Judging by your incredible success.. I am encouraged! I guess I think either I will see that they were all lies previously and I am going to drop dead trying to meet the previous burns, or that it won't work and I'll gain :)

Adding to my collection!! love 3&4

You could try switching up your macros for a bit, see if your diet impacts your loss/water retention.

I make myself eat a min of 1000 but usually can get in 1200. Feel free to add me, my diary is open. I know I don't want to not eat because then the hungry ogre will show up in a day or two.. but my system is "special" i've had multiple health stuff so my body doesn't always work quite right so I trust the process and it is…

OOH I like that one!!

What got me moving yesterday when I did NOT want to!!! "SOMETIMES... you just have to put on your BIG GIRL PANTIES and do it whether you want to or not."

bump!

Those jeans are WAY to big!!! You probably are smaller than that :) Great job!

Don't be discouraged.. slow and steady! You can do it.. I am in progress and working on strength and body fat %. I'm 5'3" on a "tall day" :) Started 160 Current 136 Goal 118 The picture that made me realize I was in denial! ICK Current weight: edited to resize!
