Immmmm Baaaaaack
Well I went through a few life changes and now I'm back and ready to recommit to health and fitness! During my break I had an injury that really set me back, which made me gain a couple pounds and lost a lot of muscle. My wrist is still not 100% but I refuse to let it hold me back any more. I still aspire to hit the…

Calling All BODYBUILDERS!
Supplements???? I just got an online trainer to help me reach my goal composition (somewhere between a bikini and figure build). Right now I'm focused on lowering my body fat so, she suggested BCAA and L-Carnitine as my supps? BCAA is obvious to me but I haven't read too much on L-Carnitine? What are you thoughts on this?…

My Motivation
This February 5th will be my 26th birthday. Every year I usually splurge and buy a whole new outfit for the occasion. Last year I managed to squeeze myself into an older dress and hide my stomach with a blazer. Now I'm far from having to squeeze into anything but I am still a long ways from my goal. The black dresses below…

Can I keep my curves?
So I never thought I'd say this but how can I shape up without loosing my (small) curves? Boyfriend says he misses my "thickness"....(eyeroll)...Not that I'm trying to appease him, but I do happen to like my current size. I just want to cut up now. Is it possible to gain definition without loosing overall size?

NSV Fail :-(
A few years ago when I "first" lost weight I did it through pure calorie counting, so of course I was still chubby and "soft". Still, because I went from a size 12 to an 8 I thought I'd give a bikini a try. I ordered this hot red two piece from Victoria Secret but was soooooo disappointed when I tried it on that I shoved…

My Sister Wont Stop
Hello All! Happy Thanksgiving Eve! My little sister and I (five yrs apart) grew up eating whatever and whenever we wanted. Good genes kept our weight under check until puberty hit. Then we both slowly BLEW UP around the same age. We both went up and down through out high school and both got the freshman 15 in college, so I…

One Thanksgiving meal???
Can someone please tell me where they got this idea of thanksgiving being only one meal for one day??? Am I the only one who lives in a household with people who cook enough food for an entire week? Not only are we talking dinner, but there will be cookies, cakes, sugar-filled drinks, and who knows what else! I have to sit…

Stuck AGAIN! :-/
This is my second go round with weight loss...My first bout was over 5 years ago...and to my surprise I have stalled at the EXACT same weight as before. The only good thing is that this time I'm not starving my self and I'm actually "smaller" at 141 than I was the first time. Yay for muscle! Have I hit my body's natural…

Calories......
My initial MFP goal was 1200 cals/day. Now I've gone up to 1400-1600, but now I've plateaued :-( Whats your caloric intake since starting Insanity?

Help! Need Advice!
My boyfriend and I have been together for 1.5 years now. He's always been quite outgoing and not the least bit shy. He's incredibly charming and flirtatious with everyone! Half the time I can tell he doesn't even realize he's doing it. Occasionally he gets paid to do celeb impersonations and he'll go all out giving lap…

Morning Insanity Workouts
Ok I usually do my insanity workouts in the evening; however, I have other commitments on some nights, so unless I workout in the morning I'd have to skip the day. Does anyone else to insanity in the morning? if so do you eat anything before?

The perfect body....from the right angle....
I've had a huge weirdly shaped stomach all my life. Of course along with my weight it gets bigger or smaller, but it is always embarrassingly large...since I've started working out and eating right, I've notice that when I hold my stomach in I can see some cuts and I actually appear rather skinny :-)))) but then I release…

Is it just me? or am I losing weight?
Hello All! I'm 5'5'' and my goal is 140lb. I started at 155 and now 148 but no one seems to see it but me. I've been doing weight watchers for almost two months now. I make sure I consume lots of protein and keep my carbs down. My stomach is half of what it was and the muscles in my arms are really starting to show, but no…

Howdey Yall!
I made this profile back in college a couple years ago, and sad to say I'm back still tryin to achieve the same goal today. I've started doing weight watchers with my mom and sister and I'm really seeing the difference this time around. The point system makes it a lot easier than trying to kill myself calorie counting. So…

Daddy is trying to kill me!
Soooo I wake up and think what healthy breakfast can I have today. Then I go to school and wonder what healthy lunch can follow up that breakfast. After feeling good about what I've eaten to far, I decide to award myself with something tasty.... Then I go home to find my dad has gotten THE FATTIEST FASTFOOD ever! First…
