I have a 9 month old golden retriever who thinks that whenever I work out on the floor that means its time to give me kisses- believe it or not the cat is worse and tries to get pets all the time.

The spreadsheet needs to be changed to edit mode. I'm logged into my gmail and still unable to add my info

Hi! I'm Sara and I'm 21 (but will be 22 on March 20th). My goal for this challenge is to be 125lbs by May 10th. The hardest part about my journey will be that I am going on a cruise on March 10th. In the past I find it hard to count calories for so long- I have a habit of drifting off and maintaining for a few months at a…

No, one pound of muscle ways the same as on pound of fat. Now if you want to argue that one pound of muscle takes up less volume than fat- then go right ahead.

I'm 5'2 and I weight 145lbs and my first goal is 120lb and after that maybe 113-107 depending on how I look. I want to be lean and athletic

I went to the gym today and over heard a personal trainer trying to get someone to buy into personal training. She made the poor lady get on a scale and then explained to her that she was obese. After that the personal trainer used this to show her what her body fat was. The worst is when the lady said she was eating…

Against popular belief you don't have to eat every 2 hours to boost your metabolism. If you want to loose weight just count your calories. BUT if you want to eat every 2 hours, you can do whatever makes you happy. Also, your body doesn't need to be detoxed. You have a liver for a reason- but like I said before, if you want…

This is the recipes I use: 1 can of tuna 1/4 kosher dill pickle 1/2 celery stick 1/2tsp of mayo 2 tbsp horseradish mustard smoked paprika celery salt pepper onion powder

Mine is acting up too and not.. yesterday I burned about 700 calories and today my burn from yesterday isn't showing. My calories burned today are also oddly low compared to other days where I have done the same

Feel free to add me too. I leave my diary open as well. I don't specifically track my exercise since my fitbit does it automatically.

If these were sugar-free gummies you could do a cleanse instead of a diet

I'm in the same boat. I'm going on a cruise in a month- thank god its only a three day cruise so it won't be terrible with calories. I plan on working out and swimming everyday. I have 5 weeks till cruise so I'm just hoping on losing 10lbs which I feel is doable.

Add me! I leave my diary open

Add me!I'm a total nerd! And I love cats- I have one named Fuzzball. I'm also working on a novel :)

Holy cow! I spend about $80-100 a week for my boyfriend and I on food. Nearly 90% of our food is fresh too.

I was also a overweight kid. In 7th grade I weighed 180lbs and over the course of a few years I lost 40lbs but was never able to get to a healthy weight. I would recommend maybe just having healthy foods in the house and making low calorie meals. Also try hiding veggies in everyday foods- I have a fiance who eats like a 5…

When I was 15 I started going to the gym. At the time, I had no idea what I was doing so the gym recommended me a personal trainer. The trainer made it seem like the only way to loose weight was to work out. Never ONCE did anyone explain to me how important diet was. In a span of six years I went through five personal…

I'm going on a cruise in March- so I would like to be at a average weight by then

Yes and no. Depends on the type of anxiety and your triggers. For example, I could go to the gym everyday and workout for hours on end but if my fiance/mom/sister/anyone I know is still late coming home from work and doesn't pick up his phone I'm going to have an anxiety attack in fear of the worst possible situation. I…

Can I just say that, if you are worried about staying in shape go to the gym after work. About a year ago I worked 6 days a week as a server in very busy restaurants on my feet for about 6-8 hours each shift and I gained 30lbs. I was not in shape and I worked a very active job. It wasn't till I started to out calories and…

I'm going on my first cruise in March and am super excited! I want to lose 25lbs before then, but we will see what happens.

If by chance you do gain weight after starting birth control it is most likely water weight( as long as you are still at a calorie deficit). The extra water weight dissappears after a few weeks.

I generally prefer my food cold to room temperature because I feel like cold food has more flavor than hot/warm food. I have no problem eating food straight out of a can as well ( though I prefer Italian Wedding soup over clam chowder). I also eat cold/ non-cooked hot dogs. I also enjoy frozen waffles( I feel like they…

Hi! I'm a server and work three- four nights a week from usually 2pm-2am. What I do is I pre-make my meals and pack them up for me. Everything that I will eat for the night I pre-portion out. I usually bring a salad as one meal, a fish and vegetable as another meal, popcorn (never under estimate the snacking of popcorn-…

Can I be honest? I've had about four personal trainers across a four year span and not a single one of them taught me the importance of calorie counting versus exercise. Not a single one.Up until I joined mfp I thought that the amount of exercise you did was what caused you to loose weight! NEVER DID I THINK IT WAS WHAT I…

I;;m 5'2.5'' and I'm currently 160lb and my goal is 115lbs! I could use some friends to help keep me motivated
