^ my way of measuring is by tape measure na and pictures.

dumating na kasi ako sa point na nag-meet na yung muscle gain at fat loss. i know, malabo.

Basta tipong, nag-g-gain ako sa weighing scale pero yung measurement ko sa waist and thighs lumiliit.

Tapos nagkakaron na ng shape yung arms ko.

Something like that.

Nag-m-measure lang ako kapag merong pangsukat body weight from fats.

Anyway, I think ok pa din ang weighing scale for those na overweight talaga. Medyo nasa range na ako ng ideal weight e. So ang goal ko na talaga yung shape ng body, by toning, etc.

specifically, FFMI or fat free mass index will let you know your muscularity.

andami nilang mga echos no, eh ang important lang naman satin is to be healthy, look sexy and feel confident.  LOL

[rae]

^ haha, oo nga, nagbabasa din ako ng mga ebook. Nakaka-nosebleed sa simula. Had to find easier ways to track progress etc.

Hindi ko naman career ang maging maganda ang katawan

Hi mga sis! Im anne and i am overweight..

5'2" and i weigh 155 lbs.. So ang punggok ko diba... So i need to lose at least 38 lbs to reach my ideal weight... I have PCOS and me and my hubby been ttc for more than 2 years .... Super yoyo dieting ako... Been exercising on and off... On and off.... Right now it is SO ON!!!

So ive decided to enroll sa gym so sa monday start nako.. Since sunday i do ab and upper body workout i use barry's boot camp my exercise ball sya kaya lang capsule yung shape nya and power cord ba tawag dun.. I still eat 1 cup of rice a day.. D pa masyadong strict and diet ko baka sa monday start ko yung strict diet... Hopefully this would work kasi super na de-depress na ko of not having baby i went to repro endoc na took clomid for months na.... Though na-ngingitlog naman ako... And in good size ha.. But still di pa rin na-coconceive.. So right now i want to prepare myself to be healthy first para naman if ill undergo ulit sa treatment my body will be ready...

Mga sis this will be my plan... On monday ill weigh again then post ko dito my starting weight.. Kwento ko ano ginawa ko that day sa gym and dito sa bahay... Tapos every week ill update if i lose or gain weight... Maybe this time would work kasi i lo-log ko sa iphone app ko and im thinking to make a blog about it... Baka mas maging effective...

Mga sis help me naman... Lets give advices and tips to one another na effective dieting...

Thanks!!!

HI Anne01,
I wonder how much weight have you lost now? Siguro para has effective ang pag lose mo ng weight, dapat ma control muna ang Polycystic Ovarian disease/Syndrome  mo. Tama ba jun ang PCOS? Kasi baka ang reason for your obesity ay hormonal, parang si Sharon Cuneta. 

Right now, I'm also into dieting. What worked for me is to stick with healthy foods. I don't at whiter ice and white bread. I stick with red rice, kamote and wheat bread. I drink grapefruit juice at night. It helps naman kasi rich in fiber siya. I stay away from sweets (cakes, ice cream, chocolates, desserts). Then I discovered Turmeric capsules. I take 1 capsule at lunch and dinner. I lost 5 lbs in 1 month.

Lalo na siguro kung may aerobic exercise like Biking, walking, dancing, swimming.

Have you tried the 3 day diet of Atkin's? Thanks. Sana nakatulong.

Hi yabbikins,

Actually parang gulong ng bike yun. PCOS is due to hormonal changes kaya ang effect overweight, irregular menstrual cycle and worse infertility. Paikot-ikto lang sila. You can control the symptoms para di ma aggravate ang ibang effects. But of course kailangan ma address ang root cause nya.

sa sister ko rin, pinapapayat siya para maregulate period niya.  ako nga din, kasi medyo nag-gain ako ng weight, tinanong din ako ng nutritionist ko non kung regular ako kasi for sure daw hindi. 

^^ wow sis yabbi, way to go

[prettynvain]

Goal weight: 45 kg
current weight: 56.5 kg

lost 2 kg in less than a month.  pero bumaba naman ang muscle mass ko kaya closely monitored ngayon ng nutritionist ko protein sa food ko.  i think need to do more weights sa gym din.  pano sabi niya balanced diet at 'colorful' e panay tuloy ako gulay, hehe...nakakalimutan ko meat

Siiis, pano yung 2kg in less than a month? Ano ginawa mo?

[phurple0515]

^ i didn't skip a meal sis pero for my breakfast and dinner, i just take meal replacement - oatmeal + fruit shake.  then i drink at least 3 liters of water a day.  plus , most important - i exercise kasi at least 5 times a week no coffee, no soda, no junkfood, no fast food for me too, so totally healthy lifestyle tinatry ko ngayon, and it's working

[kaiz]

^sis ilang minutes yung exercise mo?

[nixx88]

Has anybody tried Nutrimeal shake? It's super effective. You just have to have the discipline kasi may 5-day diet program sya. My boyfriend tried it and sobrang laki ng difference. It's a complete meal na, not just a weight loss something.
