NROLFW NSV!
I am at the special workout part of stage 1 and invited DH to join me since he had done the A workout with me once. On the squats, I had started this stage with body weight only and worked up to 95 lb squats over 8 weeks. So the special workout is to do the exercise as many times as possible with the weight you started out…

NSV!
I put on a pair of size 12 pants today and they fit in a flattering way and buttoned easily. :) I started out EMTWL 8 weeks ago with a two week break in the middle for vacation, so I'm pretty thrilled. And I'm doing NROLFW so my weight has maintained over the last six weeks and I'm still shrinking. Hooray!

I am a whoosher...
When I first began eating more, just over three weeks ago, I immediately lost about five pounds. From that point (with the addition of NROLFW and less cardio) I have remained the exact same weight within 0.2 lbs for the last two weeks. Today, I hopped on the scale and had lost 5 lbs, seemingly overnight. I should clarify…

Vacation...what to do?
I have been EM2WL for about three weeks now and will finish the fourth set of stage 1 of NROLFW tomorrow. I am feeling great, getting stronger, and loving it. My question involves what to do on vacation next week. DH and I are headed to Beijing to visit my brother's family who just moved there a few months ago. I imagine…

This is the first day...
My macros so far are nearly perfect. I always just end up a little heavier on the carbs than I should be, but right now I'm at 38/31/31. Just a small victory, since I feel like it's kind of hard to get that perfect balance. :)

I just turned down...
A butterfinger bite from my co-worker. I absolutely didn't want it. Now, the backstory is that I sit right next to the snack box (for charity) at work and it has probably been half of the reason I gained so much weight over the last year. Now, I come to work prepared with an array of healthy snacks and eat them evenly…

3 days in...
And I'm already so happy I made this change. I had only been on the MFP 1200 calorie standard for three weeks and was feeling miserable. At this point in my day at work (4-5pm), I was starving and only had 400 calories left for dinner. Now, I've just had a snack of Greek yogurt (have never liked yogurt until now), and feel…

Now I know I'm not the only one...
I am on my 22nd day using MFP. A little background... I am a 30yo female, have one two year old child, and DH and I are thinking of trying for another. Well, I am about 50 lbs overweight - 5'5" and 195 lbs and I'd like to be healthier before getting pregnant again. DH is on this journey with me as he has about 30-40 lbs to…
