My First Lipstick
My profile picture is of me wearing the very first lipstick I have ever purchased. All I've ever worn until now has been gloss. This pouty red lippy is courtesy of MAC a la Russian Red. I am in love.

NSV!
I had the courage to change my profile picture to one of my actual body. Not only that, but my body in tight gym clothes!! HUGE victory for me. I have always been to shy or embarrassed to post images of me. While I recognize that I still have a ways to go, looking at this photo made me realize that I have come quite a…

I love the fitness motivational posters as well, a big…

Hey! I'm Healthy!
This morning's weigh in brought me into the "healthy" BMI range. It's taken a loss of 26 lbs and about 6 months to get here, but it feels amazing. I am definitely a SLOW loser. .4 lbs a week for months at a time. You all can do this! 19 more to go!

Always Low On Protein...
Does that mean it's time for protein powder? I only have protein at dinner as it is tough to make healthy protein at lunch at my place of work. I never have it for breakfast unless it's the weekend when I can take my time making eggs. I have turned my nose at protein powder for a while, but now I am starting to think it…

P90X and Fat
So I was doing some research on exercise programs as I am hoping to kick one off again this week. I was going to do P90X, but the research I was doing kept coming back to say, "don't do P90X until you are within 20 lbs of your goal weight." If you do it before this, you are going to add muscle but the thick layer of fat on…

Next Step?
I have been plateaued for ~5 weeks now. I raised my calorie limit up to 1540 cals (MFP says I will lose 1 lb per week) 3 weeks ago and my weight hasn't budged. I have switched up my exercise routine. I am drinking a ton of water and watching my sodium intake. What do I do now? Do I lower my calories again? I am at a loss.…

Increase Calories for Weight Loss - Link to Info?
I have been pondering a calorie increase for a while (I am 5'9" and my limit is 1200 cals right now). This week I went up 0.8 lbs instead of down my usual pound or so. People are suggesting that I look into it now more than ever. Increasing calories is probably the scariest thing ever (for me). I have this deep seeded fear…

No Appetite After Working Out
Is there anyone else that is like this? I tend to do my work outs right after work in the evening, before dinner. Getting up earlier in the morning is not an option (I commute a LONG ways) and I simply enjoy the routine that I have going for me. Anyway, I could be on the verge of hunger before I do my work out, and…
