I liked the last day of senior year, when I never had to go back to that fu(king place! And choir. I loved choir.

@Knitormiss, where do you get those drops? My grocery store doesn't have them anymore. And where does one find xylitol?

I was using them, but apparently in excess, probably up to 30g of aspartame per day, which adds up to about 28 carbs. Turns out they are less than 1 carb but still have carbs. I wasn't logging them bc I thought they were 0 carbs.. Had long conversation with my dr and dietitian about this and have now decreased to maybe 10g…

Stay within calories. Stay within carb limit no more than 10 g over Exercise at least 5 days a week.

French fries Ben and Jerry's chocolate fudge brownie ice cream I don't even need them to be healthy. I need them to have no carbs :)

This website has some amazing recipes. http://www.ibreatheimhungry.com/category/recipes/low-carb-dessert-recipes

I use a tracker as well called P Tracker. I gain/have cravings before my period, not really during but it helps when I'm super hungry yo look at the tracker and say "oh" and it makes sense why. But I try to eat on point and drink extra water, and I take pamprin, which helps with cramps, water weight and some pms symptoms.

I like Powerade zero personally.

Bring your own food and eat it before pizza, take a small slice and eat very slowly, or pick it apart so it looks like you ate it.

Just because your mom had a traumatic childhood doesn't give her the right to make you her punching bag, or your kids. Time to set some boundaries instead of letting her words affect you so deeply. Maybe less time together would be a good place to start. If she insults you, leave. You don't deserve to be treated like that…

Hard to judge without knowing your height. Your mom is a total biyatch for saying that to you. You don't look extremely overweight. My guess is that you carry it all in the middle. I'm going to say 135 and a big FU to your mother.

1/2 cup ricotta cheese 1 and1/2 tsp unsweetened cocoa 2 packets of your favorite sweetener Blend Add in what you like, chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, strawberries This has become my go to sweet treat.

Usually gyms will give you a free pass to try it out. You can go and see what you think, get the vibe and then decide.

If you have passports go to Puerto Vallarta. It's beautiful and there are affordable hotels/resorts.

Bacon and eggs with a slice of cheese.

Worst first date #1 Guy didn't show and I waited in an outdoor cafe for an hour for him. Worst first date #2 Went to a restaurant and sat at a table. Table means dinner. Bar means drinks. I ordered a dinner and he orders shrimp cocktail saying he wasn't hungry. This was when I was over 200 pounds and already self…

I'm in New Jersey in an affluent area. We aren't affluent, we just rent here. I spend about $800 a month on groceries. This includes all of our breakfasts lunches (I eat at home, husband brings his lunch) and dinners. We eat out maybe 1x a week. I shop at the least expensive supermarket usually 2x a week as we're always…

That's awesome. I saw one 4 years ago in Mexico. Truly amazing!

Women look best with one thing Confidence. And maybe a smile. The rest is subjective.

Face yoga?

60-80 grams of carbs is kind of low already. I only eat low carb because I have to. If you're losing successfully the way you are, why change? If it ain't broke, don't fix it. It sounds like you're doing really well already. Keep it up!

Shaun T CIZE is a lot of fun. It's not for building muscle but you'll lose inches and pounds.

I took Saturday as a rest day

I've been doing CIZE for several months and have lost many pounds and inches. The beginner calendar doesn't tell you a specific rest day but that doesn't mean you shouldn't take one. I like Saturday rest days so that's what I used when I followed that calendar. If you search the community section for CIZE you will find a…

Switch your breakfast. I was a hardcore cereal eater for 40 years. Now I eat bacon and eggs with a slice of cheese every day. Have lunch and make it a protein, like tuna and a fat, like avocado. Eat the chicken and vegetables, just make sure the vegetables aren't the starchy kind. You can still eat fruits in moderation,…

I'm much more dedicated working out at home than I was going to a gym. I've lost pounds and inches using DVDs and workouts that are on my cable OnDemand for free.

Peanut butter Chocolate croissants Flourless chocolate cake Red Velvet cake with Cream cheese frosting Pastries and baked goods in general are pretty hard for me to be around. I have a bad sweet tooth!

I had a tummy tuck almost 6 years ago. Parts are numb to touch, and it definitely can be uncomfortable if I eat too much. Still the best decision I ever made. Can't wait for the leg and arm lift!

I don't have chest days or meals most of the time, but I had a cheat week while on vacation. Ate everything I never eat and more. It was awesome and delicious and I felt sick as hell by the time we left, with an extra 5.5 pounds. Lost all but one in the week we've been home. It feels good to be back on track!
