Oh another holiday weekend!! This is always so hard for me.

It seems like you could not be eating enough high quality meals throughout the day. If you are still craving a full meal after dinner, then you should look closely at EVERYTHING you are eating. I like to eat something healthy and nutritious every 3 hours or so. This keeps me satisfied and helps increase my metabolism. If…

That is good to know. The last pre I took kept me up all night and I would usually workout around 3! So yes, I was pretty much paying for caffeine. I should have just had a cup of coffee, I would have been better off that way.

Standard multi vitamin in the morning, C4 typically for my pre workout, but I haven't used it in a few weeks. I am looking for a good supplement that I can use as a pre workout if I want and something to help me lose some weight. Does this exist?? I went to a supplement store the other day and there were too many choices…

Looking good! Congrats! I will hopefully be where you are within a month or two. I am down one and ¾ of an inch so far but no fat loss yet but I will get there. You and others have shown that it can be done and that makes me feel so much better about my weight loss journey I am taking now!

Wow! Way to go! You are looking great! You are such an inspiration to all of us, I’m sure. I can celebrate the fact that I am down one inch and ¾ using what I have been using but you are doing awesome! Thanks for sharing your success.

Way to go! Congrats! I have a lot more to go so please add me. You are an inspiration to me and, I’m sure, many others here.

That is awesome! Way to go! Keep doing what you are doing and you will get there in no time at all.

I think you should give yourself more time. I just started not too long ago myself and although I am losing inches from what I am using, I am not losing fat yet. However, within the next week I will start working out again because we will finally be in our new house and my exercise equipment will be out of storage finally.…

I live in Ohio but we can still be online friends. I find my online friends are better than friends closer to you anyway.

I have cheat days every day, lol. The reason? I am not starting my diet until we get moved next week. We are moving, hopefully, by next Thursday. I will start my diet once we are moved because that is when I will also start my exercise plan. I have an exercise bike, a Pilates machine, and I am getting a treadmill. We have…

I want to be friends with everyone, lol. I want to lose 100 or more pounds.

I don’t really see a problem with your eating pattern. I think it is fine the way it is. Just my opinion.

I feel the same way. I always feel this way around people that act like that and it scares me.

I totally agree with you too! I don't want to be too skinny or too big but I want to find my perfect size. I want to be at a weight where my back won't hurt so much.

I will be a friend and we can mentor each other. I am 34 with about 100 or more pounds to lose. I think we can be friends and help each other out. Add me as a friend and we can exchange contact information.

I also have PCOS and am trying to lose weight. The advice about cutting carbs is true. The doctor will tell you to cut them out. It is really hard though, believe me. Best of luck to both of us!

I feel your pain for real. Although I am not depressed currently, I do suffer from depression and have been on meds for it for years now. However, I am happy now although I am a little overweight as well. I know I will lose it soon. I just have to try harder and once we get moved into our new place this month, I will have…

I have a hard time staying focused with everything, including sticking to weight loss and even my work. I am a professional writer and have gained a good bit of extra weight while sitting here at the computer writing articles for clients and news sites. I want to lose this extra weight but I need help staying focused on it…

I made some New Year's resolutions and am working hard to keep them. Mine is to make more money from my writing career and write what I love to write, which is the news for my news sites I write for. I also want to lose weight but so far, that hasn't happened. I would like to make it happen now, however, We are moving to a…

I have lived in Ohio all my life. Born and raised! I am currently living in Steubenville but moving to Brilliant this month. Add me!

Hi, I am in a somewhat similar situation as you. However, I don’t have children so that is the only difference. I am 34 years old and weight 225 pounds currently. I would like to get back down to 170 as well or maybe a little less but that is good enough for me. I will definitely be your weight loss friend! If you would…

I think it is nice that you want to help your friend out. I understand that you want to help her out while not sacrificing your own level. Maybe you could just show her the ropes real quick and then get back into your own thing.

I wouldn't worry about speed either too much. As long as you are walking and jogging, I think that is good. Where I live, I can't walk too far right now but where we are moving to, I can and the weather is going to get warm soon so I plan on walking a lot. Also, we are going to be living close to my parents again so…

I am 34 and feel old as it is, lol. I know at 34 I am not old but I sure do feel it. I know it is because I am not as healthy as I should be and this is why I plan to get healthier for now on. I have been reading a lot of weight loss and exercise forums and websites and have received a lot of great information so far. I…

I think doing squats or lifting barefoot sounds good. Everyone has given such great advice here. I am totally new to this exercise and losing weight thing but I am willing to give some of these ideas a try. Especially the squatting and lifting barefoot idea.
