If i get down to 190-195 with 9% fat again the fights between Chump and Cucking Funt over me will be epic.
A little motivation for all of you:
Don't get manboobs.

Dry roasted no salt almonds, peanuts, sunflower seeds etc.
Evil or good stuff?
In small amounts i know they are good. The problem is who the _ _ _ _ can eat only small amounts of these? I'd rather avoid but i get them shoved at me a lot.
Okay, i have not purchased the ellipitical -yet.
We have a field close by that has been as green and scenic as the fields of Ireland with the rainfall.
One huge opening in it has what's like a golf fairway and it goes downhill/uphill at about a 12% grade.
So, wearing my Tim Dunkar knee brace, I've been walking down the fairway 100 yards then jogging back up. Keeping impact minimal, swinging my arms to involve the heart more and also take some heat off the knees. Been doing 30 minutes 3Xs a week. Still swimiming.
Work has been a super stressor so diet has been good and bad.
I'll be happy if i break even at next weigh in.
I simply using this Taylor brand scale for now:
http://www.taylorusa.com/weight-mana...ath-scale.html
Not sure how accurate it is.
ST Posters what is the best reasonable way?
Mrs M can that gizmo you and DOK use measure fat and BMI? If so, how accurately?
I can catch the Trainer at the gym. They are always jonesing to get one to buy their services. Offering a free assesment in hopes of hooking. I can see what method they use.
Body fat percentage shouldnt even be on your mind until youre under like 15% and trying to get abs. If you really want to know though try bodybuilding.com theres a huge thread dedicated to it...its just an eyeball test but pretty accurate. No point in wasting money on a device to get an exact measurement if youre still a fatty.
Youre doing it wrong baby girl. You need to increase your excercise or decrease your calorie intake if youre plateauing, you cant expect to keep losing weight at the same pace (or at all) as you get thinner unless you change your routine. You cant gain muscle on a caloric deficit either.
Going to jump in on this thread too if you dont mind Fabbs. Gonna post weight later on tonight along with weekly updates. Gonna show you s how its done tbh.
Of course i don't mind. This thread is all about support.
Could you tell me which thread on on Bodybuilding.com has the fat % device goods? Too many sections look thru, i tried.
For me i am in a contest and accurate fatty % is going to matter.

Its just a thread though not a device. You post your pic and people give you an estimate based on them, its people that are in great shape and know what theyre doing though. Lots of good info in that Losing Fat section too if you look around.
Yes. Thanks for telling me something i didn't know about.
Damn why you gotta be all feisty, ash? You didnt know that and I was just trying to help you out tbh.
yeah ashbeigh just chill out and s out
Remember when you posted a pic of someone's torso that appeared to be toned and said it was yours
Guess that was a lie
That wasnt me tbh. The other pic I posted was me though, huge difference in the torso length...the toned one was a little hobbits torso. Dont know how yall didnt pick up on that tbh. This is me or atleast it was before I used trying to go on a bulk as an excuse to get lazy and fat as , gonna try to get close to that then try to bulk successfully this time...

Lost some more weight this week, body looking good. Basically just eat well 6 days a week(no sodas, try not to eat too many carbs) plus play sports at least 3 days a week. Do at least 100 push ups a day. Friday is the day I eat whatever the I want.
Next step is basically start lifting weights - but I hate doing that, so I"m gonna see if I can hold off for a couple more weeks and just do push ups/sit ups + exercise and see how far that gets me.
Lost 21 pounds in 4 weeks. 15 more to go.
I'm pretty sure m>s's words were that was the torso of a Mexican hobbit

I give you a lot of props for admitting a plan to "bulk up!" was an excuse to get lazy and fat, the fact you're willing to admit it is something I've literally never seen from the countless people who used "I wanna add muscle!" as an excuse to eat tons of red meat and stop doing cardio.
As for me, I'm 4 weeks into Insanity but I'm going to redo last week so basically 3 weeks in. I've lost prolly 15 pounds so far but need to improve my diet to get where I want to be by May. The workouts do get more intense after 5 weeks, but if I want the kind of results they advertise I need to keep cutting down on starches and carbs with a diet consisting almost completely of vegetables and lean meats. I've gotten a lot better at it the last few days sticking to the 5 300-400 calorie plan with a serving of vegetables or fruit in every meal.
Normally this is around when I get sidetracked with other , but I've already accepted a job offer and this semester isn't too bad school wise so I have no excuses. Insanity is good because it's the most intense cardio you'll ever do while it only takes ~40 minutes a day and doesn't require any equipment. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who's busy and has never been really into fitness. After just a few weeks you'll notice improved lung capacity, improved flexibility, and most notably improved speed/leaping ability.
I just use one of the online calculators where you plug in age, height, weight, and waist measurement. For a female my age the norm is 23-34% body fat and I am smack dab in the middle, I'd like to lower that a little, but generally I'm very pleased with where I am.
The Fitbit doesn't calculate that stuff but there is a pricey wifi scale that pairs with it but I'm not interested cuz I only weigh once a week anyway.
A little late but.....I think the nuts are a good idea, especially for a quick after run snack. I have a real difficult time determining when and what to eat before and after exercise because I prefer to run empty and a lot of times I'm just not hungry. My general strategy in my quest for improved fitness has been portion control. I don't want to give up any foods so I just eat less of what I'd normally eat. Of course snacking is minimal and when I do snack it's fruit or yogurt or nuts. I'm an emotional eater so I overeat or undereat depending on my mood; I've found that keeping an apple near me at all times really helps. When I get the urge, I go for my apple first and then decide if I'm hungry or just wanting to stick something in my piehole. If I'm not hungry enough to eat an apple, then I'm really not hungry.
Tim Ferris has a lot of good nutritional advice for burning fat in the 4 Hour Body.
Unless we're talking about losing 50 lbs or something like that,just stopping eating junk/drinking sodas and exercising 3 times a week is enough imo.Keep it simple,and have a routine that you can follow for the rest of your life.Otherwise if you go really hard on yourself you'll get tired eventually and go back to your old habits.
You download insanity somewhere or purchased it? I know its worth it but Ive just never been willing to dish out the $100+ on it when I know I could drop weight with other methods. Ive heard there are sites where you can download it but never had luck finding them tbh.I'm pretty sure m>s's words were that was the torso of a Mexican hobbit

Are you eating more than 800 calories yet? Do you have enough energy to exercise?
I can't imagine 800 calories. I am pushing it by only eating 1600. Even that is really low.
I bought it but took awhile before I got fully into it and now I'm finally getting my money's worth. It's worth it if you know ahead of time that you'll feel out of shape and in over your head the first time you do it.
I've also lost weight using other methods before, but that was when I had more spare time and a job that was an automatic 3-4 hours of good exercise every day. The big selling point for me with insanity is I know it's only 40 minutes a day to get a great workout.
