Vancouver, BC! I love to have fellow Canadians and British Columbians on my page, so feel free to friend me!

I'm keeping under 1600 calories and I'm quite active in my job ( like I said, small children! ) plus trying to get on the nightly work out train. I think you are right, thanks :)

Thanks for the advice! Yeah, I think I'll go back kmto missing lunch and instead having extra snacks during the day. That's how I used to eat and honestly it was much better for me. My boyfriend is a "meal" guy and often insists on me bringing a hearty lunch because he can't imagine getting by on cheese, crackers and salad.

Add me! I'm looking for someone to hold me accountable and vice versa! We seem to have similar lifestyles and goals :)

^ pre logging meals is an awesome tip. Helps eliminate those impulse snacks!

Also, as has been mentioned above, try not to do it alone! If you have a "buddy", it's so much easier to keep going. My roommates and I have a support system between us now. We turned a spare room into a home gym and we try to all work out together. Likewise, I've noticed that my effort is being reflected in my boyfriend,…

Please feel free to add me if you'd like! I'm sorry you are feeling so discouraged. I think we have all been there one way or another. I know something I struggled with was guilt over my weight gain. My thought was always, "How did I let this happen?" However, that thought contributed to a feeling of hopelessness, which…

I went through this a few years ago when I lost 50 pounds. My mother suffered from a terrible eating disorder that nearly took her life when she was younger, so when I started losing weight my family panicked thinking I was going through the same thing. Just explain to people your motivation and methods :) My family is…

I know your struggle. My day starts when I wake up at 5:30 AM. I then commute an hour and a half to work, work an 8 hr, then commute the same time back, usually arriving home at around 6:30 PM. It sucks. The exhaustion of that is what has kept me back for so long. I'm now really pushing myself, and I know I will have good…

Thank you everyone!

Anyone please feel free to add me as well :) I'm new but I intend to log daily and love to have fitness buddies.

Thanks so much, that's super helpful. I was confused about whether or not it was before or after exercise, so that helps. I will try it set as active for a bit and see how it goes. Thank you, appreciate it!
