I don't do Aytkins because it's proved to be so dangerous. I am low carb but with a big emphasis on no grain based carbs, no sugars, no booze. I eat a lot veggies, as much as I can. I've known for a while that cutting out sugar and fast carbs makes my appetite so even and manageable, it's crazy. So when I just remember…

I eat within reason on cheat days, but allow for foods that are "dessert" in my diet - sugar, dairy, alcohol. I don't binge. To your point - in years of maintaining, gaining and losing weight I found what works for me. To lose weight I have to be exercising and eating until a certain calorie count, etc. A whole system that…

hey! I am starting a new 30 days abs/squats/push-ups in 2 days. I am looking for someone to check in with, too :) if you want we can be mfp friends. my real life buddies dropped out from our no guilt exercise group text

the track is still right here. it hasn't gone anywhere :) just put the fork down and do what you know you like to do, that you know you want to do. think how great, healthy, energetic you are gonna feel after just ONE day of eating well and that run/yoga/ whatever you do. close your eyes, imagine yourself in that moment.…

I noticed that MFP suggests that I can eat more bc I exercise that day and I really really dislike it. Food is a not a reward for me, I actively fight that mindset in…

motivation is my old photos where I look fit and hot. Recently I changed my routine - meditation and exercise is the first thing I do when I wake up. Yes it's an adjustment, but it's such a great sense of accomplishment! You are already a winner and it's only 8:30AM :) Seeing my stomach getting flatter is a great…

hey! so as Cherimoose said, you can't melt fat in certain spots, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't do your abs! When you do core exercise, you stomach looks flatter and more toned even if there's some fat. Same goes to any muscle group. Your butt will go up the hamstrings if you start doing squats daily, no matter how…

I think that there's a lot of people who would be polite and not tell a person they have a problem. And that is okay. I think that it is great that you care, that you offer help. Because you know what, backing off and letting someone destroy themselves is not love. Imagine she was a closeted drinker. There's only so much…
