Bunny - You are an amazing person! Reading your story and seeing your photos was what got me hooked on this site in the beginning. If I could achieve 1/10th of what you have, I'd be satisfied! Shoutout to a fellow redhead and (i'm guessing) Irish las. Love the tat, my husband has a clover on...
Back from my trip - did good all things considered. Finished up Friday on program, and used Saturday as my cheat day. My cheats were a small ice cream cone and 4 marshmallows (we were camping). I ate less overall that day to compensate for my junkfood and we walked for 5 hours straight at an...

Ladies, thanks for the hellos. Your photos are great - I'm a redhead (now it's more auburn, actually) and have always admired blondes ;) I am a pasty mo-fo!
The good, bad, and ugly:
Woke up this morning with sore arms, so Monday's workout is still paying off.

Hi all. Having lurked for quite some time, and being totally motivated
by everyone here, I'm ready to start sharing ;)
I've been doing BFL for about 3 weeks now. I've been a steady gym-goer
since about age 15, but this is the first time I really feel focused
and have goals in mind. I'm working...
Thanks again - I'm going to up my cardio to 3 30-min HIIT sessions and 3-4 hour long walks (I keep the dogs going as fast as they can!) a week. I do enjoy the HIIT, really destresses in a way that the long and droning cardio never did.
I've read that morning cardio is best, but I've never been...
Thanks for the input everyone! I'll work on my patience ;)
Que - I'll take measurements tonight. I've got that on my to-do list anyway, along with photos for extra inspiration. I haven't been using the scale at all since starting the lifting b/c I know from experience that the #'s are pretty...
My diet is mostly good - except for my cheat meal, which I have been taking on Saturdays. At that meal I usually have something with a lot of sugar (like pancakes with syrup). And always feel like hell afterwards.... you would think it'd help me break the sugar cycle, but it hasn't yet.
For...
Hi all,

About me:
I'm 27 years old, 5'6" and about 130lbs with a BF...
