My coworkers laugh at me daily. My work provides bottled water and each day I line up 10 17oz bottles on my desk. My rule: Can't go home unless they're all finished. And, one diet coke (major weakness)

Your goals and mine probably aren't the same LOL! I love lifting weights, and, for me there is a LOT of ego involved! As a now 44 year old woman, there is nothing like looking across the aisle at a man in his 20s and out lifting and our rep-ing him. I finally dragged my ultra fit marathon...

Interesting workout today. Could you tell me a little about the light weights in the work out. I always lift heavy and am intrigued by changing it up. Are you doing the reps slowly with a great squeeze? No rest between? I've read your other threads and got the impression that you typically...

It's been almost 2 months and just wanted to post an update. Like many, the holidays certainly messed with my workouts/diet but everything is back on track! 😄 I love my new doctor! After 2 rounds of blood tests and a 24 hour saliva test, diagnosed with Hashimotos disease, anemia and...

I have been taking the princess stack from needtobuildmuscle.com for about a month. I have been quite pleased with the results as an add on to the clean diet. Do give some thought to increasing your weight training instead of or before your cardio. This has also been a big help in my fat loss.

I say snip snip. Vasectomies work well. No weight gain! LOL

Yup, fighting middle age with everything I've got!

Figured I'd give a little more information. While waiting for medical type work, I went on needtobuildmuscles' "princess stack" needtoslin, forged burner and bridge. I have been VERY happy! A lot of my thyroid related symptoms have lessened: Crazy itchy skin Water retention Body temp increased...

Hi all! Been doing decently but crazy busy. I test for my black belt in 2 weeks so now have 5x per week 2hour sessions in dojang on top of work and lifting sessions! Had new doctor meeting Friday and think I have found a good one! 😀 I have more blood tests to do and follow up December 6...

Yes I have an appointment November 15 with a doc whose reputation includes being willing to prescribe armour instead of synthroid as well as t3 and t4. So hopes are up. In the meantime, just upped gym weights 15% across the board! Workouts were great this week!

FYI per Nate and after looking at all the ingredients in the stack, it shouldn't mask tests. It is need2slin need2burn and bridge.

Yes. I would be concerned with YAZ seems like more potential for ill effects than other choices.

Honestly the easiest way to lose baby weight is to keep breast feeding. That's 300-600 calories a day burned right there. She can work out and breast feed too its not mutually exclusive.

Personally, I didn't react we'll on oral contraceptives. Water retention and unexplained weight gain in my twenties. Have her look into a non-hormonal IUD. No muss no fuss no issues and nothing extra in her system. Of course, the best was when we were done and hubby got snipped! LOL

Oh and personally, I think it's all about gaining muscle mass and not the cardio. But, the ladies here know more than I and will chime in.
