Realized my gym is closing at 6 tonight so no workout tonight. No workout tomorrow. I have to work Friday and I hope my gym closes at a normal hour on Friday and not 6 again otherwise I won't be able...
What a weekend. Hit the gym on Friday for some jump rope and upper body workouts. Went hiking on Sunday, and decided I'd do a cheat day, which I rarely do (like once a month) so I had soda and...
My skin is super prone to breakouts. I've been supplementing with protein powder for a few months now, and actually my skin looks better than ever these days.
I'd measured my limbs and hips on March 27th of this year... I'd forgotten about that til just now, so I looked up my original numbers, and compare them to the numbers from when I measured myself...
No worries about not working out this weekend. Just make sure you stay strong about food! Once, I went to a theme park with my family. My family said one of the points of going was so we could eat...
My hair is pretty good actually! It helps if you get your hair trimmed regularly and use gentle, high quality shampoo and conditioners (sulfate free!). I also use Dr. Bronner's to strip my hair of...
i have wavy to curly hair that i straighten every day. it gets very oily the day after washing it, even without going to the gym, and when i sleep on it, it holds awkward shapes in my hair so i look...
Last night I went to the gym at 7 and didn't leave until 9:30. I am so sore I could die. I want to crawl under my desk at work and cry for my poor gym sore body. I'm trying out BRX pre-workout. I...
Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't see where you said you were allergic to Ibuprofen. Any kind of anti-inflammatory will help, however. I also would suggest heat and massage. I'll give myself little tummy...
The fashion industry claims clothes look best on stick models. This is probably because most clothes hang on a hanger in the stores, and the industry wants their models to look similar to clothing...
Heyyy, been following your journal for a while but just wanted to tell you that your legs look awesome, and you're so inspiring :) Your workouts look killer!
I'd suggest pushing her harder, as well. My trainer, when we first met, looked at me struggling to deadlift the barbell, told me that wasn't good enough, and added 20lbs to it. I managed, with his...
Take a pain reliever (ibuprofen is a godsend) before you get your cramps. Seriously, if I'm on my period, I need to take ibuprofen every 6-8 hours, even if I'm not feeling any cramps coming on. I...
I have always been sort of "skinny fat." I did dance in high school, and that coupled with any PE classes kept me in shape, although it wasn't THE BEST shape, then when I went to college, I started...
I hate hate hate the treadmill. I've started using the Stairmaster. If your gym has one, I highly recommend it. For some reason, 15-20 minutes on that thing goes by so fast.
I too am counting my calories and am in a caloric deficit. I count nearly all of my calories, except with my coffee and creamers and dressings on my salads. I still measure out a serving of each so I...
