Losing this birthday/holiday weight.

LCHF (low carb high fat) for a little over a year because sugar is my downfall and there is really no 'moderation' for me with sweets. Eating more fat and cutting out most processed stuff works for me. :)

Me, too.

You can add me if you want to. I'm also five feet tall. My highest weight was 148.7lbs in September 2014 and I got to 116 a few months ago and I'm sitting around 120 now with the holidays and everything. Best wishes.

OMG, yes. Goldfish or my favorite, Hot n Spicy Cheez-its. *** Plain m&m's. Candy-coated crack. It's all or nothing with those.

I've been using Fitness Blender almost exclusively since I started losing weight over two years ago. I love it. I've bought the abs program and their mass/strength program and both are great. I'm doing FBmass for the 4th time this year; it's really helped me sort of enjoy strength training. Having a schedule and no…

I've lived in the Greater Cleveland area my whole life.

I'm musicaddict90 there. Feel free to follow.

About 6 months. I dropped my carbs from 150+ g to 70g back in November and I've lost 5 more lbs; that's what worked for me. I love eating LCHF (low carb high fat).

Feel free to add me as well. :) More support can't hurt.

I sabotage my progress with sweets/sugar. I love not feeling enslaved to it anymore as my body no longer physically craves it. It's very liberating. I want health more than anything and I will do what it takes to keep these 20+ lbs off. It's not easy or fun, but it's worth it.

I usually drink water or brush my teeth.

I'm 5'0". I'm always gonna wish I was taller so I could eat more. lol Yep. Sweets are my downfall, too. I am learning to be satisfied with less thanks to a low carb, high fat diet. I love my low carb brownies, chocolate peanut butter fat bombs, and "cookie dough" bites. I just try my best to fit them within my calorie goal.

I'm 5'0" and eating 1,400.

Having broccoli and cheese sauce with dinner instead of the mashed baby red potatoes that my mom made and not feeling deprived (I'm eating low carb).

Since I've lowered my carbs and upped my fat since November, I find myself obsessing about food and eating a lot less because I'm no longer constantly hungry. This whole thing has gotten easier and I'm now on sort-of autopilot where I automatically go for healthier options and the carb-heavy stuff I was eating before…

Same here. Stomach and love handles. Everywhere else is thin. So frustrating. Starting my fourth time through FitnessBlender's abs program today. I've lost 1.5 inches off my stomach so far and I've got a bit of tone in my obliques.

I live with my parents and younger sister. I've lost over 20lbs since last September, complete with a food scale and logging. They are proud of me and support me for the most part, but I have never asked them to change just because I wanted to be healthier. They still nag about me using a scale all the time. They eat what…

I ordered 1lb of Delicious Strawberry and 2lbs of Chocolate Mint (their only size); strawberry came today and chocolate mint should be here some time next week. I tried the strawberry with milk and it reminds me of strawberry Nesquik. I'll keep it and order it again in the future.

Yes, this, too! Very important!

Yes. Also: Drink lots of water/stay well-hydrated Use a food scale Log accurately Eat only when hungry

I went back for seconds of everything even though I was full. Still working on that.

Yeah, same here. Lowering my carbs from 150g+ to ~80g and eating more fat and way less junk food has helped so much. I started about a month ago and I'm not constantly wanting to eat and thinking about food. I'm having way less cravings for sweets and carby snacks, too; I can walk past them and be fine, where as before, I…

People who always have to one-up everyone and can never let anyone have their moment. People who slurp anything. My sister slurps everything...soup, cereal, noodles, drinks...it drives me insane.

I've only had ON's double rich chocolate and I'm going to try a few small packs of flavors because my tub is almost gone. I'm not gonna buy a big tub and if it sucks then try to return it or be stuck with it. Has anyone had the chocolate mint or the strawberry?

Godiva dark hot chocolate made with whole milk. Really good.

I have been sick this week and also enjoying the typical holiday indulgences, but I am willingly ready to start tapering my carbs back down tomorrow. I still really haven't had any cravings even while I've been eating all of this excess sugar, so I'm hoping I'll be able to transition back smoothly.

Hitting my initial goal weight that I set when I started...I'm finally sooooooooo close.

Also, nuts, other cheeses, Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and hummus and veggies.
