    I am here too for reasons that people get very cranky over my posting about healthy foods, working out and losing weight on facebook. I don't get that, in all reality shouldn't you be glad someone is doing something about their health? So, yes.... I came here so that I could have a network of people who are goal oriented in the same manner as myself.

    Ew I hate healthy food.


    Then what do you eat to stay fit? BTW, I did catch the sarcasm :laugh: :wink:

    I eat a lot of cookies. True story.

    Is it weird that even though I am trying to shed fat, that the scale didnt budge for a good two weeks while eating a low carb diet... then I ate a nutty bar and the next morning I dropped a pound? lol

    Not weird whatsoever, weight loss ain't linear


    All in moderation right?

    Thats your body saying "wtf give me carbs because they're a readily available energy source, delicious, and will not have a negative effect in weight loss assuming you have no medical reason to avoid them and remain in a deficit."

    Not a full-time medical reason, I know doesn't make sense. When I was pregnant I was a gestational diabetic even though I was of average size and didn't eat crap.... I wasn't diagnosed until very late in my pregnancy so it was uncontrolled and I gained 70 pounds, so when I had my daughter and it came time to lose the weight.... nothing worked but the diet plan the nutritionist put me on the last 3 weeks of my pregnancy. Which was very low carbs. only 15 in the am and then gradually worked up to 25g during the afternoon and at dinner. SO, I am assuming that even though I am not diabetic when not pregnant that my body controls carbs poorly.

    When I was cutting I was eating like under 100g carbs a day, but I'm trying really hard to actually reach the 35% a day it gives me now.

    Nice, yeah I am reaching at about 70g a day. Its worked for the first 41 pounds but slowing. Also, could be seeing it slow down since I now have less to lose.

    1.5 pounds a week would be acceptable with 40 pounds to go. then 1 pound with 20 to go, then 0.5 pounds with 10 to go

    Well I started back up on Jan 7th again after a small holiday break and lost from then til now 3 pounds. So, I guess I am on track. I am just use to seeing 2-3 pounds in a week since I started from 212... And no I never starved myself... lol

    1. Track my food.
    2. Track my exercise/calorie expenditure.
    3. Seek fitness advice/feedback from more knowledgeable users.
    4. Socialize with friends I've made along the way.
    5. Have fun joking in the forums and feeds.
    6. Show off my progress/attention *kitten* myself for motivation that I'm on the right track.
    7. Creep other people who are doing the same, and craft elaborate fantasies involving them in my imagination.

    I friend invited me here around the new year. She hasn't been on in 15 days.

    And I'm just really *kitten* bored. People get mad and catty when I try to share my progress on FB. I get virtual high fives here. So I'm staying.

    Creeps profile

    Hey uh. You know if you need support Zach and I have a tiny chat and uh...we'd be glad to discuss your goals and dreams and observe your progress.

    Just saying.

    I'd highly recommend this option.

    I'm here to be tricked into showing off my progress

    to meet unattainable and highly sexualised men for naked KIK/snapchat texting

    and to attention *kitten* myself out while attaining my dream goal of a shapely cooter.



    true story.
