It's so easy to fall into the couch potato syndrome after being away from it awhile. I know, I've been there too. I just had to make up my mind that this is what I wanted and get my butt up and do it. It didn't take long to get back into it again but yeah, you just really have to push yourself to start. Remember why you…

I'll share your journey with you if you'd like! I'm still a work in progress but at one point I hit 240 lbs....and decided enough was enough. Slow and steady wins the race!

I have managed to lose just over 100 lbs. so I know you can do it too!! Break it down into small steps...5 or 10 lbs. at a time. When you reach that goal, then set another. It's way less daunting that way! You ALL can do this! And to add someone as a friend, just click on their image. You'll get a screen asking if you want…

To add a friend, click on their name/picture. You will get a screen that asks if you want to send a message...click on their picture at the left and it will ask if you want to add them as a friend and you can also send a message.

I'm not a meat eater either but I get protein from egg whites, greek yogurt, beans, tofu, and the occasional use of protein powder or protein bars. Keep playing with it, you'll get the hang of it!

That is AWESOME! Keep up the great work!

I am also a work in progress but getting closer to my goals every day. I found the least stressful way to do it, besides logging all your food, is to break your big goal down into more manageable goals. I set out to lose 5 lbs. Once I hit that goal, I went for 5 more. It is far less daunting to do it in that manner and…

You can so do this. One day at a time.

Babies certainly don't make it easy. They put you on THEIR schedule. I know it's tough but try not to skip meals and don't save your calories for dinner. You need to fuel your body throughout the day so you're not starving by dinner time. I have found that when you can fuel regularly (or as often as you can anyway)…

Hey there! At one point I was up over 240 lbs. I tried everything too and one thing I can tell you, the low carb, high fat deal isn't the way to go. It might work for the duration but go ahead, eat some carbs and see what happens. LOL I learned that one the hard way too. I have changed my macros and honestly don't remember…

Hi! It certainly CAN be a struggle sometimes. What it is that you struggle with? Healthy meals or meal planning? Or is it snacking?

Your friend has to have their diary settings set so that friends can view it. Once they do, you should then have the option to VIEW DIARY.
