big good week
So after my mini-binge week, had a great week (except a total fall off the wagon moment at 930pm the night before my cheat day). But woke the next day and did measurements and weigh-in and got bi...
Technically up 0.8 lbs, but down 1" in total inches. Will take it.
Re: Coffee, a thought
Need freshly roasted and ground coffee properly extracted. Tastes awesome.
Re: Celebrate the little wins
I'm nothing but little wins these days. No big changes on scale, smaller drops on total inches. But I think I know why both of these things happened. But I'm all about other things. Clothes defini...
almost officially in stall mode...
So weight has been pretty static for about 3-4 weeks now (some fluctuations, but talking less than a pound per week type deal). And changes in total inches creeping down. And this week I was more ...
50 lbs kettlebell
Is no joke. Going to have to drop down a weight. 75 reps with this bad boy would take forever
Re: Psyched out: What's your typical response to hitting a plateau?
All I think is "keep at it." My weight loss has trickled down the past few weeks. I'm pretty sure I know why it is, but (a) still going (albeit slowly) and (b) my total inches are droppi...
Let the tweaking begin
Feel like I'm really stalling out. I think it's because of the fats I'm eating and small amounts of sugar in random foods. So time to start tweaks to see where I can improve. Also might switch out...

So 6 weeks in, I find myself looking forward to cheat days less and less. I still have random pangs of "I want XYZ on my cheat day," but I find that 10 minutes into XYZ, I'm over it and ...
Going to be a bad week
A little bit of not wanting to be on the scale this weekend. So far this week, I've only had a single meal I prepared and given a ridiculously busy week at work, ate my morning protein within 30 m...
What are quick, easy and cheap sources of protein?
I was under the impression, very mistakenly, that 1 whole egg was closer to 10g of protein for some reason, hence my 3 hard boiled eggs breakfast. Just looked it up and it's closer to 6-7g. That m...
Re: Already bored
Look for edamame at your local Asian grocery if you have one, it's a LOT cheaper there than any other grocery store.
Wish me luck: kettlebells
Starting kettlebells this weekend. Still undecided whether to buy a kettlebell or go the T-bar route. I'm just coming off a rotator cuff injury, but I think it's time to get into it.
Re: I am stalling?!?! Anyone else?
Are you taking other measurements? In my first 3 weeks I lost 12 lbs, but then didn't lose anything the following week, but I lost another few inches off my total inches (and my pants were definit...
Weighing/measuring food?
How strict is everyone with weighing/measure food for portions? I'm just sort of eyeballing it (e.g. dumping a bunch of spinach in a bowl, pouring on beans, tossing some protein on it, and a bit ...
Muscle gain on Slow Carb?
I'm doing the basic slow carb diet from #4HB. I've stalled out a bit the last two weeks, with regard to weight, but it's okay as my total inches keep dropping. I have not been doing any exercise...
