Hey :) 5'2 here currently at 184, started at 189.5 my goal weight is between 125-135. Have awful sweet cravings as well especially during my monthly gift.

I use No Explode pre workout powder. They have yummy flavors and it really helps me out especially if I feel too tired to workout. It is expensive at GNC ($50) so I buy it online on amazon and spend about $18-$20. I like to add a green tea bag to certain flavors too, makes it taste amazing and seems to give me a little…

Watch what mints/gum you eat though. Get sugar free mints/gum otherwise it can destroy your teeth! Got two cavities one year from eating so many livesaver mints. They now have sugar free though :)

Silly and outgoing

@roseml6792 it's not letting me add you. Can you send me a friend request?

Exercise for at least 30 minutes. Stay under my calorie limit with healthy foods. Make this the first day of the many healthy days to still come.
-
I don't have a success story yet because I just started but I am almost 5'2 and am currently at 187 :( I started at 189. I am going to get down around 125 and reset my goals then if I need to. Although I've always been curvy so I think I would be happy and healthy around 120. I've always tried to lose weight as fast as…

I know some of you say this isn't healthy but everyones body is different. I know I've lost 13 pounds before in 2 and a half weeks.It wasn't unhealthy. I ate a lot of healthy foods, ate at least 1,350 calories a day. I also exercised an hour a day 5-6 times a week. After that first 13 pounds came off my body adjusted and I…

That's awesome @xtrain321 and @GetThatRunnersHigh :) I'm so happy you two were able to reach your goals! What were some of the things you did to achieve your goal weight?
-
@missjones513 well if you were able to lose 30 lbs before you can do it again, and lose the other 40 on top of it! I lost 15 before in 3 weeks so I know I can do this again. You just have to be strict with yourself. I know you said your not very active, you should just take a walk once a day or something, it helps a lot!!
-
@shianeg that's an awesome plan and goal! I know you can get there! @lucylu7406 your doing great! Add me we can help motivate each other :) @deannster1 that's an awesome goal, you seem very determined! Congrats on the 45 days of logging @oddlyotter great job on your weight loss so far, were around the same weight and…
-
That's awesome @shianeg what is your plan to lose the weight and when do you want to lose it by?
-
Haha of course.....so what was the rest of the post @Frenchers11?
-
Wow :) haven't been on this in a couple days and was sooo happy to see all of your replies! I added everyone who sent me a request and I'll be adding more of you too. It seems as if everyone has similar goals :) So exercising isn't a must for losing weight, a lot of it is what you eat. However, it does help a lot! So I'm…

Thank you! I genuinely like green tea so I'm still going to drink my one green tea a day, mainly cause I get tired of water :P I should start infusing my water to give it taste too. I didn't think green tea could have that kind of impact on weight loss. I also thought 5 cups a day was a lot haha.
-
Alrighty, thanks :)
-
Easier said than done :/ especially when I feel like I've just over ate....constantly. It's about 1,200 calories a day though.
-
Thank you @Orphia of course I'm going to listen to everyone hahaha I mean obviously it's working for them. Haven't had the chance to buy a scale yet, going to tonight though :) I think it will help a lot! @christinev297 that's a great idea! I don't know why I never thought of that haha! Thank you!
-
I'm almost 5'2 hahaha 5'1 and a half. I started at 184 and I'm at 179 right now I just started about two weeks ago. My goal is to get down to 125 so I have quite a ways to go, but it will happen with time, a healthy diet, and exercise. Feel free to add me as well :)
-
My dog does that to me too
-
What do you weigh everything out to? Are their set amounts I should be doing?
-
Alrighty, I'll go buy a scale :) hopefully that helps.
-
No I don't measure out my food. I don't have a scale :/
-
I really do appreciate everyones input on this subject by the way :)
-
I am logging my food, I stay within my calories most days. Sometimes I go a little over by 100-200 calories. But it doesn't happen often. I mainly eat fruits, veggies, salad, shrimp, fish, rice. And I allow myself one cheat meal a week. Not a whole day because I feel like that's ruining my whole week, so I limit myself to…
-
I didn't get depressed because of the diet. There were other things going on in my life at that time that caused it. I do eat healthy now and I do exercise.....I have a hard time losing weight so that is why I considered doing this again because it helped me before. And if I'm exercising and lifting weights I shouldn't…
-
I guess I used the wrong wording. Not technically jump starting my weight los. It's just if I see some results right away it gets me motivated to keep going and work harder. Its not like I'm just doing the diet, I exercise and still will eat healthy on the 4 days I'm off of it. I understand a lot of these are just for…
