When I started off, I was 190+ and very unhappy with myself. Now I'm noticeably healthier and more fit, and down from a size 12/14 to a smallish 10 - but I'm frustrated by a combination of plateauing …
I'm making turkey burgers today, and every time I've made them in the past they're a little drier than I'd like, even though I do use feta cheese and some oil in them. I was thinking of adding a littl…
I really wanted to incorporate strength training into my routine, but because I don't have much experience, I wanted to a) build my strength up before hitting the free weights and b) get someone to sh…
So I've been stuck weight-wise lately, but I feel like I've been getting fitter, so I decided to go back and look at pictures of myself at higher weights, and compare them to me now. I have "official"…
Hi ladies! I finally bought NROL4W and I'm starting today, but I only have my boyfriend's set of adjustable dumbbells and no gym, so barbells are out. Has anyone else modified the workout and used dum…
I've never really done strength training and I really want to start, but I have no access to a gym right now. However, my boyfriend has a set of adjustable dumbbells, so I've been looking for a routin…
Sometimes I look at how far I've come and where I want to be, and I feel great — and then I see something like this (Moderator removed images) This girl is the same height as me, and her "start" weigh…
So I've been in recovery for 2 years now, and even though I've slipped occasionally, I hadn't purged in 4 or 5 months, now. Then life turned into a giant trigger. My manager sat down to talk with me a…
Seriously though! I've been frustrated at being stuck in the same weight for a few weeks, but I've been noticing lately...I can actually feel my hipbones! I'm so used to them being covered by fat, it'…
So I've lost 20+ pounds and I'm only 8 pounds away from my original goal weight, although I'll probably adjust it 10 more pounds once I get there. Now that I'm getting closer to my goal, I'm easing up…
So I went dress shopping the other day because my old clothes are really starting to not fit, and for the first time, I actually liked the way everything looked on me! I ended up getting two dresses I…
I feel so sh•tty about this, but with helping my parents move on my days off work (they live an hour away) I've ended up only working out 4 of the first 8 days. I certainly don't plan on missing any m…
Honestly, I’ve hated my legs (and especially my thighs) for as long as I can remember. They bulge out in the front, they’re big, they’re noticeable, and they’ve always made it hard for me to wear tigh…
This past Thanksgiving, I realized I was up to 190 pounds, which was edging very close to my HW of 195. At 5'8", it wasn't a great look for me. I joined MFP shortly after and started counting calories…
I joined MFP and starting committing to a healthy lifestyle right after Thanksgiving, and even though the scale hasn't been budging much, I'm noticing a difference in size. That's why I use pictures t…
I just got Ripped in 30 and want to start this week, but I'm wondering what size weights you guys started with? I was thinking 5 and 8, but I'm not sure.
