I'm 21 and 155 and want to be around 125 or whenever I have a smaller belly that I don't feel self conscious about. I should reach my goal by summer 2017. Add me! :)

Just realized you already answered that question. Sorry

How tall are you? I'm just over your starting weight now and also apple-shaped and would like to know if I need to get down to 115 like you to have a flat stomach. I'm 5'4.

Add me! I'm vegan except free range eggs!

How depersonalizing your body change can be. Sometimes you feel like you're in the wrong body, like you snuck into someone else's. Last night I was casually grabbing my belly and there was much less to grab than before and it actually shocked me. Like my heart flipped over for a second. It was actually scary. Hopefully…

Feel free to add me, especially if you think we're similar! I'm 20 yrs old, 5'4" Starting weight 145 (highest ever was 153, but usually stayed around 145) Current weight 136 Goal weight 123-126 I also want to get fit and build a little muscle once I reach my goal weight! I'm also a vegetarian and dairy-free!

I'm 5'4", 137 pounds, and trying to get down to the mid-120s and then gain muscle when I get there! I'm also vegetarian and dairy-free! Feel free to add me, I have an open diary. Especially if you are vegetarian or have similar goals! :)

Also, my picture is of the bikini I ordered for my March break trip... I hope I lose enough to feel confident in it!

Hey, everyone! I'm 20 years old, Canadian, 5'4". Heaviest weight ever was 153 in 2013 during my first year of university (just into the overweight category), but since then have hovered around 145. Now I'm down to 137 as of a few weeks ago, but I'm weighing again tomorrow to see where I'm at. I've only really been…

Thanks everybody. I didn't realize that potassium isn't a required listing. I eat lots of veggies and legumes so I'm probably getting enough.

I've always had an abnormally large waist, I think. I've always been at a healthy BMI but have been asked if I'm pregnant by people. I hate this part of my body more than any other. Right now my breasts are 36.5, waist is 33, and hips are 38. I'm 5'4", 20 years old, never had kids. At one point by waist was around 36…

I started on birth control, Depo Provera, which is known to cause weight gain. Well, I'm not going to let it. In fact, I'm going to fight it to the death and LOSE weight. I also have a spring break vacation coming up and I want to wear a bikini comfortably for the first time in my life and look good on the beach and at the…

Technically vegetarian since I eat free range eggs occasionally but I am otherwise vegan! I will add you

Hi, I consider myself vegan, although I do eat free range eggs and am not against eating clams, oysters and mussels. I started this in June of 2015. My definition of vegan is to reduce harm to animals as much as possible and I think my choices reflect that. However, this can be hotly debated in the vegan community. So…

I agree that veganism can be hard to get into for some people, who rely on animal flesh as a staple of their diet. However, if you're already eating a healthy diet, it's really just about little changes here and there and won't affect 85% of your diet. Of course, most people aren't eating healthy diets, so I think you're…

Again, everybody needs to supplement or eat fortified foods. It's the nature of our current agricultural system. It is not some special thing for vegans. Anyone who eats cereal has iron-enriched cereal and calcium-enriched milk, so they are already supplementing. Switching to soy milk enriched with calcium and B12 is not…
-
Sure, take supplements if you feel like you aren't getting enough nutrition. But that goes for all people, not just vegans. I don't appreciate people saying as a vegan you NEED to supplement. All styles of eating can have nutritional deficiencies. For example, osteoporosis, lack of calcium in the bones, occurs in most in…

To be fair, it may seem like an extreme diet if you are switching from eating prepackaged pseudo foods containing dairy and meat to eating homemade whole food vegan meals. However, I would argue that eating meat and dairy every day is extreme. Nobody needs to eat that much. A healthy diet is about 85% vegan by default.…

To the people saying that veganism is such an extreme diet or that you need to supplement every meal.. Simply lies. What is so hard about replacing the meat and eggs in your diet to beans, lentils, tofu, nuts and seeds (these contain no cholesterol and low amounts of saturated fat, unlike animal flesh, as well as…
