One day of what you did, fortunately, didn't ruin you. That's why I love this quote... "Saying I ate like crap today so I might as well quit is like saying I dropped my phone so I might as well smash it into a thousand pieces." Lol. Not suggesting you thought about quitting, it just reminded me of the quote because I've…

Hahahahha me too!

I have an occasional treat or slice of pizza. Just yesterday I had a delicious piece of banana nut bread & I've lost 23lbs so far in 3 months. It helps keep cravings away. There's nothing wrong with eating treats on occasion just as long as it fits in your calorie goal. Best of luck!! :-)

I love Chic-Fil-A's grilled chicken cool wrap. Very filling & 340 cal. Leaves you room for their delicious soup too. Or a fruit cup.

If I crave something I eat it. Makes the craving go away. The other week I was craving tacos so I just went to Taco Bell & ate 2 soft shell tacos. It was delicious, my craving went away, & I still lost weight.. Because I stayed in my calorie goal for the day. If you crave something then eat a little bit of it as long as…

I'm the same height as you & had close to the same starting weight. I've lost about 23lbs. I set my goal at 2lbs a week with a 1200/day calorie goal. I was definitely losing 2lbs a week. I'm now losing around 1lb a week & I'm completely happy with that. Just take your time. I realized I was being discouraged when trying to…

That's exactly what I do.

You're doing fantastic! Thanks for sharing!

Happened to me too. Went to a restaurant with my sister & the hostess as she was taking us to the table asked me if I was pregnant. I just simply said no. She couldn't say anything & just sat us down & left. Needless to say.. I didn't eat my lunch :neutral_face:

I've been sucker to this sort of thing before. I tried the military diet. I lost 8.5lbs in 3 days & then guess what happened.. It all came back. It's so easy for us to want to try these sorts of diets & fads because all of them promise a couple of things.. Quick weight loss & minimal effort. It never works. It wastes your…

OP, you'll notice quickly on this site that NO ONE likes to see any suggestions such as this one. I agree with everyone that it sounds gross & it's all about just your calories in & calories out. Simple as that. If you're interested in it though, absolutely go for it. & if it helps you.. That's awesome! I'd just refrain…

Great job! Keep at it. Stay focused.

I pretty much eat it everyday too. I LOVE IT! I usually add blueberries to mine.

As of today I've lost about 23lbs. It took about 15-20lbs for me before people starting making comments.

LIFT!

I've been on MFP for about 2 months. It's truly helped me so much! Keep going, press on!

Way to go girl! I'm 23 & my starting weight was 193lbs. I weighed today & was 161.8. My goal is to be about 140-145. I saw earlier you have someone the advice to make short term goals. COULDNT AGREE MORE!! When I was 193 my short term goal was to get into the 180's, I hit that & my next short term goal was to be in the…

I also have that implant in my arm due to come out this October. I didn't gain any weight with it & have had no trouble losing since I started my weight loss journey. It's all about how the BC affects your specific body. My best friend has it also & she put on 35lbs with it.

I just started lifting a month ago. I lift twice a week. I LOVE IT. You can tone your muscles without 'bulking up' From what I've read, it's important to tone & strength train during your weight loss journey. I think your husband may be incorrect in suggesting you start weights after weight loss. You can do that of course,…

Someone asked me if I was pregnant :o

I am so confused by this post :#

Granted but you can't feel love. I wish I knew everyone's secrets.

Granted but now you have a disease. I wish I had a million dollars.

If I was a lesbian, yeah. She's gorgeous.

Granted but you're missing 2 fingers. I wish I could fly.

As long as you're continuing a deficit then it's fine. But I'm with her ^^^... If I was aloud that much, I'd eat it :smiley:

Nope!

Definitely not. Would you eat a live spider for $200?

Is it cardio that you dislike? Because, yes, that can be boring and monotonous. You don't have to go all crazy, but start either lifting weights or doing body-weight only exercises. Just a couple every day. Try not to rest in between sets. It will elevate your heart rate a bit and you'll start to see results.[/quote] Yes,…

Drink so much water! It's super helpful. Other than that, just the basics. Eating healthy. Good Luck! Of course, exercise helps a ton!
