I'll preface this by saying that most of the "skinny shamers" didn't know the smaller me, but I'm wondering if folks are just hating on me.

I have lost about 20 pounds in the last couple of...

So, I have been having some issues with extreme fatigue no matter how much rest I've been getting and things just seemed to have shifted since I hit the big 4-0.

I'm back in the gym, but I...

ITA Kimm4. It just seems like I could eat like crap when I was younger and wouldn't gain an ounce or I could do two crunches and take a good SH** and would have abs all over the place. It's not as...

Hello all! I just turned 40 and can't stand what I see in the mirror. Though it's not HORRIBLE, I miss the younger, more fit woman of my youth. I'm determined to be 40 and Fabulous and need some...

That's unfortunate. I see there's an over 35 page, but since we women have different body needs (especially after 40 - those damn hormones!!!), I thought for sure we'd get some love. OK... I'll...

It's been FOREVER since I posted. Needless to say, I've taken a LOOOONG break from fitness altogether, and I've decided that 40 is FABULOUS and I need to get back on track. The good news is that I...

Though I appreciate your advice... you're wrong. My diet and exercise routine are pretty locked down. That is the ONLY place I carry fat, and despite lifting heavy and eating properly, that pure...

I tried Hydroxycut Hardcore Elite and had an epic fail... I was literally a basket case the entire time I was on them. So, I recently tried to do a Sesamin, Green Tea and Fish Oil Stack and guess...

That's the thing... not much

I have the bar and a 45 plate on each side. I've been going to 90 degrees but I'm not feeling anything where I want (glutes). My quads are nice and firm (and sore as...

... and could use some advice on form, etc.

I have been doing squats in the power rack, but my knees are really starting to suffer. Would dumbell squats be a more knee-friendly alternative?

I survived a week off and didn't turn into the marshmallow woman!!!

I actually did LISS on Saturday (45 minutes / incline 10.0 / speed 3.5) and it felt great. Due to time constraints, I will only...

I'm going to try green tea next week (since it's healthier than my Starbucks). Still at a calorie deficit (although I took a week off from the gym). Heading back tomorrow for a nice long LISS...

OMG! I didn't realize it until I came OFF them, but yes. In fact, the first day I was off them I slept for HOURS. It was crazy. Now I'm back to my old self (and back on my Starbucks!)

All I can say is... wow.

After being on fat burners for two weeks (enduring spontaneous tearful outbreaks and a never-ending sense of negativity), I decided it wasn't worth it.

They may work...

Thanks everyone. I really do think I am having a Yohimbine meltdown (no more Hydroxycut Hardcore Elite)

I actually decided to (GASP) take the entire week off to re-group. That will allow me to...

I know... I know...

I really think it's the stupid fat burner. I'm getting on my OWN nerves.

I've decided to just chill the F*** out for a few more days, get better, let some of this fat...

Well... dang it!! I look nothing like some of the pics of folks that are reporting higher BF% than me, so I have no idea what I am. My upper body is pretty ripped but I'm a fat ass. I have thunder...

WARNING: I'm about to whine...

It turns out that my insistence on going to the gym last Friday despite being a little under the weather was a BIG mistake. By Sunday's urgent care visit, my...

...now I am starting to think its not worth it so much.

First, I still have had absolutely no change in that hip measurement and the side effects are starting to drive me bananas. I think it may...

Totally off topic... @heidismommy...Holy abdominals Batman! I wanna be your ab twin when I grow up!!! AWESOME!!!
