Lifting your max.
I haven't found my max yet. As in the greatest amount of weight i can lift, with only a single rep. I usually lift reasonably heavy. I'll get maybe 10 reps in a set, sometimes 8. But for some reason i'm terrified of straining myself to the point i can only do a single rep. I know it'd benefit me to know what percentage of…

What food are you craving?
Cravings, we all have them. It takes strength to resist at first, but once the moment has passed it gets a lot easier. And i imagine as time passes it will get better. But, i still crave all kinds of things i probably shouldnt eat too much of. Right now i am craving spanish rice! What are you craving right now?

Healthy" Fast Foods"
I remember before i started eating healthier i would often make the excuse of stopping by fast food places for a bite to eat when i was short on time. More often though, i would just skip meals all together because i was short on time. Which isn't very healthy either. I am sure we have all done our fair share of eating…

Was it really every about being "thin"?
When i started relapsing, i forced myself to think back to the reason why i wanted to lose weight in the first place. My first dabble into anorexia had little to do with losing weight. I realize now, i was merely forcing my body to its limits, punishing the pre-pubescent body i felt trapped in. But upon my relapse, i was…

He found out. Reaction was strange.
My boyfriend is a lovely boy. Gorgeous really. Cute face with silky black hair, a warm complexion and a rockin body. I really love him to death. He has no idea about my ED. Or at least he didnt. Recently he had the tendency to stalk all forms of media i use. I dont know why, he just does. I never really minded at first but…

Healthy places to eat: PHX, AZ
I’m visiting my sister in AZ soon. She isn't the healthiest eater, so I’m hoping to shop a bit so i don’t end up eating nothing but junk. And i was also hoping to be able to eat out, preferably somewhere with healthy options. So if anyone happens to have some recommendation on places to shop, and your favorite healthy…

Calories (vs) Macros: Whats more important?
What do you think is more important? Hitting all your macros or hitting your calorie goal? I usually focus on my macros over my calories. I figure if I'm getting enough protein/carbs/fat, then it doesn't really matter how many calories i've eaten. What do you aim for when it comes to your intake?

Ew... (ED rant)
I've been in denial for a long time for some reason. I knew i was relapsing. Falling into my old habits on occation, but i always managed to pull myself together. So i though i was okay. I thought that this wasn't going to be an issue. That i was prioratizing my health above all else. I guess was wrong. The past month i've…

Organic Must Haves
Is there anything you ALWAYS buy organic? Or for the most part prefer to buy organic? I personally buy a lot of my fruits and vegtables organic. Partially because i worry about pesticides, but also because there are tons of local farmers markets here. Also i live on an island, so i think its important to support the local…

Intermittent Fasting Question: Nutrient Timing
I fast from 7pm until 2pm with a 5 hour feeding window. I work out at 630 am. Which means i dont eat for up to 7 hours after working out. Is this bad? Its really the only time i have to work out...and i prefer to eat at night versus the day time. :/ I am thinking of perhaps going for the 16/8 approach just so i can get…

Restrict,no. Restrict, no. Restrict, NO!
I've been doing really well lately. I went from a diet of 600-800 calories to 1500-1700. I've been working really hard on eating more, and eating as healthy as possible. Yes i am still avoiding certain foods, and i still feel guilty after i eat most days. But i haven't purged or restricted in weeks. I just feel so fat…

Should we change up our diets?
So i don't know about you guys, but when i started doing the Ripped in 30, i went from working out 3 maybe 4 times a week to working out 5-6 days a week. Not to mention my only form of exercise previously was going on runs/walks. So i suspect i am burning more calories than before. Does this mean i need to eat more?…

One of those days...
So i weight myself this morning after breakfast as i always do and i've gained. I am not use to this. I am disappointed. I thought i was doing everything right. I'm eating enough. I'm working out A LOT. I am pushing myself harder than ever towards a healthy weight loss journey and here am, staring at the scale and number…

Check In: 02-06-12
I know I'm not a mod, but i thought that i'd be good for all of us to check in every Monday and talk about how we've done so far.
