I tend to crave and want junk when I am not eating enough food throughout the day. Perhaps you are restricting yourself too much? I also find that you need to ponder all the potential whys of your eating junk. ie do you eat junk to cope with emotions? do you prefer it over your cooking? Is it easier to buy McD's than cook?…

I was able to buy an xl skirt this weekend! I felt so beautiful!

This reminds me of one of my favourite quotes. "Don't go to a hardware store looking for a loaf of bread." You can speculate why she doesn't support you (jealous, immature, self centred, unhappy etc) but the reality is you have no idea why she won't or can't support you. She does not have the ability to support you so stop…

Motivation comes and goes. You need to make the choice that exercise is a priority. It doesn't have to be a lot, especially in the beginning. Even once a week will make a difference!

You my dear are giving me hope. I'm 6' and am trying to prepare myself that I might never hit onederland...but maybe I will. Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got to go to Canada's Wonderland which I haven't been to in 13 years. I fit in ALL the rides! Some were pretty tight and a couple were quite painful but I FIT. I'm going again in August and I will fit more comfortably :)

Congratulations!! This is a goal of mine for the near future. I joined the running room and start on Monday :o

I grew up in a similar environment. Never made to eat veggies and instead grew up on a lot of crap. As an adult, veggies (and all new foods) would make me gag too. The first time I joined weight watchers was the first time I started to challenge myself - veggies were less points after all! So I would make veggies, or eat…

You can buy vegan protein powders. I try to get all my protein from food but if I can't then I consume some protein powder!

What do you eat before a workout and how far in advance? I find that has a greater impact on my energy levels during and after a workout.

I'm excited for this too! At my heaviest I was a 4x but I always made sure I had great clothes. I've worked in a plus size clothing store for the last 6 years so I would always be first to purchase the best items. But my style at heart is romantic. There are rarely romantic clothing choices in my size. I started sewing…

My goals: -Exercise 3x per month -Try 2 new recipes -Keep up the running intervals -Focus more on set eating times and less mindless eating in front of the television

I'm 3.5 months out and I haven't hit a plateau yet. I've had a couple of weeks where I have had a gain but that usually happens when I have an unusually large loss the week before. My strategy for when I hit one is to focus on my fitness. 2 weeks after surgery I was at the gym doing a couch to 5k walking program for 6…

I started running on the treadmill last week and I am now able to do 5 minutes straight! I started with a couch to 5k WALKING program. It took me 6 weeks. And then I spent a few weeks upping my speed...I can now walk at 3.4 and my running is 3.6 (I started at 2.5). And then I added weight training...I think if you are…

I usually do a fruit tray with some dip.

I go to the Ymca, I LOVE: -that I get a free membership with my school tuition -there is a huge variety of classes -always machines available -4 blocks from my home -the staff is very positive and supportive!! -they have a pool

Wow you look amazing!!

Thanks for the feedback! Last night I was finally able to walk a 5k at a decent pace...I think I will go sign up today for their summer clinic!
