All this scale talk, I was checking out the small pocket ones, you know to store in my purse, how cool...BUT I live in central kentucky and every other day there's a METH bust..... Ma'am, why do you have a scale on your person? ummmm to weigh my FOOD! yeah.... I just don't know now if I want that on my person, cause i'm…

I Use international delights sugar free fat free and it's only 15 per tablespoon AND they just came out with Pumpkin spice to go along with the vanilla and caramel flavors.

You really have to be choosy with these "energy" bars, I agree, some are so full of sugar and crap that they are glorified candy bars, others have the consistency of horse feed, super dry, crunchy and gross. I got a gatorade bar and it had whey and left this horrid film in my mouth, great on protein but high on sugar. I…

My biggest clothes were so pitiful I had to throw most of it away, I had 2 pairs of joggers from old navy that were about as threadbare as they could get and not fall apart. I have packed my spring/summer stuff up till next year when I can trade it at my local thrift store and I have given things to people who needed it…

heck yes! I have to break, snap and tweek every thing trying to get that .98 oz up to 1 but nonono not the 1.02, dang try again LOL Like the weirdest game, forget ANGRY BIRDS, it's WHAT DOES IT WEIGH?

"sob" why can't pasta be the one thing that goes the other way!?

I use my scale regularly but i fruit didn't dawn on me, lol, but I have been known to weigh prepackaged items to see if it really is what it says, that started from measuring all the chicken and beef in packages to see if the store lied!!!

Oh that makes me so mad, looking forward to something like that and YUCK! I too love the coffees! I would have drank it also because of the "i paid money for this stupid thing so I'm going to drink it" factor. LOL

I felt (nearly) the same way about pasta, and because it's such a high calorie item, i too cut it from the foods I eat. I recently had a "pasta" dish that used zucchini instead of the lasagne type noodles to roll the yummy stuff in, and it was awesome. Now if only I could pass completely on the cheese.....

If you are eating the same things day in and day out, switch it up and go that extra mile working out, like literally a mile LOL

this was good, but no cute gif at the end bummer

I chose to cut fast food out, in 10 months I've only had a sandwich and a mini blizzard. I also try to only eat "healthy" snacks, instead of cookies or candy bars I eat fiber one bars so I get a little sweet but it's higher fiber, lower sugar. I no longer beat myself up over days where I have gotten over my budget or…

I always said I've got a slow metabolism but I lost an average of 2 lbs of week for 6 months, I think the people that I thought had fast metabolisms basically are more active. It's kinda like the old big boned thing that doesn't exist.

I had similar past and would do well then fall off the wagon, this time even with a cruise stuck in there I have lost since January (i started with the lose it app and switched so it doesn't go back that far) THIS time is different because i got my head in the game, I was MORBIDLY OBESE, now i'm down to obese class 1, this…

Dinner!! I can handle a light breakfast and decent lunch but I like that big meal to end the day.

@jgnatca oh wow how cool is that game!!!! love it!

oh my gosh YES!!! I have a running bucket list as goals!!! color, mud, zombies and 80's glow and anything different. Maybe some to help causes, breast cancer, MS etc. we have a runningintheusa.com that lists thousands of races.

Thank you @mwyvr

Get a stand up desk, If that's not possible they have those yoga ball chairs and you actually work your core balancing. Maybe set a timer, to get up and walk around ever so often.

I completely understand! I feel like phoebe off friends when I run (if you don't remember the episode look it up on youtube) I feel akward and weird but i'm like a 200 lb woman running, I'm doing it! and you know what? those people sitting there (possibly judging us, possibly not) are NOT running. We are lapping them! I…

Exactly!!

This is very true and sometimes it's like just a couple more pounds and BAM everyone is taking notice!

^^^^This

My big one that I have hanging next to my bed is Progress Not Perfection! and i've started a smash book, look on pinterest for that, I print mantras and pictures Go Confidently in the direction of your dreams and LIVE the life you imagined-thoreau Courage does not always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the…

Yes! but now if I do eat them it's not oh lord the whole world ended and i'll have to start all over, I just shrug and try not to buy them anymore

Yes to this, I just don't have time for that in my life anymore! I was horrid about posting on all the fakey fake things people share on facebook, now i usually let it all go. I think the exercising has those endorphins flowing and happier feelings going on!

These are the reasons I had might light bulb moment, I didn't want to be that person who couldn't lift themselves off the floor, who couldn't climb up on a bed by themself. I watched my 600 lb life and that doctor was so point blank, I think we need that sometimes. (But not in hate by a youtuber.) I also didn't want to be…

I've said some "gentle" suggestions, like setting myself as the example, "i can't believe I could eat 2 cupcakes from this store they were 750 EACH" but the specific lady that can't seem to lose weight also tells me how chia seeds have ALL THESE HEALTH BENEFITS.....and then, she poured them in her milkshake......

IDK it's says like 200 calories for 10 steps when I synch in the morning, so i'm glad it does what it's suppose to when it converts over to the mfp app

I get up really early and have 2 breakfasts, one as soon as I get up and then another at a "normal" time, or one light breakfast and heavier lunch, like yogurt and coffee, or 150 protein bar with coffee.
