This just reminds me of this girl on youtube who is SO hard on herself about "eating clean" all the time. She even does dairy free 6 days a week and I just think its madness! To make yourself feel so bad about food is ridiculous. Shes super healthy and tall and lean. I recognize I do this to but not as bad. Its just sad

Do you exercise so you can eat a bit more?

my mom did weight watchers and lost 45 lbs and had cheat days once a week. Meaning she ate whatever she wanted to that day. Shes since gained maybe 10 lbs but she is still ate a great weight and she works out harder then anyone I know and manages it somehow.

I used to but now I just log everything and eat at maintence on Saturdays. I tend to overestimate calories & "bank" calories too for the weekends, just in case.

Ehh I drink one day and I notice it makes me fuller bc of the carbonation. I enjoy having one with my dinner bc I drink water pm allll day long.

I wanted the sleepytime tea but its all got mint in it :( i hate mint!

wow, I may need to try that, thanks! I slept well last night but woke up a few times but still slept which is fine by me!

I went 3 weeks without any losses showing and then BAM I had lose 2 lbs. Dont get discouraged!

I have about 9 more lbs I want to lose so far I've lost 5, and I've been doing .5 a week. I typically dont eat all my daily calories (usually have 200-400) left over. It just depends on the day, I also do this bc I tend to eat more on weekends so I'd rather have some wiggle room for those days. I also overestimate even if…

Thank ya. I def will. I've had to take a day and half off because of missing sleep and I wont do it again. I have pretty bad OCD/anxiety my OCD is purely obsessional thoughts and I think this becoming apart of it. I worry about my sleep so I need to treat it just as I would my other OCD type thoughts.

I work out 50-60 mins doing a mixture of cardio and strength training. Some days I jog also.

I'd like to be about 130 by June, thats only 4 lbs from where I'm at now

Yeah, I want to lose about 10-15 lbs depending how I feel after 10 lbs. Its taken me about two and a half months to lose 5 lbs BUT I wanted to lose .5 a week so its actually right where I need to be. I'd rather it take longer and be able to maintain then try and lose quickly.

6:40- wake up, go to the bathroom, weigh myself, enter in happy scale app, and feed dog/let him out 6:50- brush teeth, get ready for the day/makeup/hair/clothes 7:10- eat breakfast/play on phone talk to husband a little (were both quiet and crabby in the mornings) 7:25- leave for work 7:45- arrive at work 7:45-2:45-…

No I ate carbs and sugar and lose 13 lbs before..restarting now and Ive lost 5 lbs in the last couple months

The thing was I took two melatonin before bed and fell asleep but woke back up and couldnt fall back asleep. I decided to take one more after that.

Took a shower last night at 1:30 am also and after i got out I shortly fell asleep. Wish we had a bath for times like that!

we live by a train so sometimes that will wake me up at night. not much to do there, but i appreciate all of the good techniques you all have given :)

I even drank two beers before bedtime last night :( and read! Thanks for the advice though

fitnessblender is my life lol. so much variety and I love incorporating strength and cardio, great workouts!

amazing job you look fantastic!

You've gotta really want it, keep going forward, and doing give up so easily! I used to give up when I didnt lose after a month or so, dont do it!

Girl enjoy your honeymoon, its only once in a lifetime! I went to the domincan republic for mine and it was all inclusive, I ate and drank whatever I wanted but we walked a lot, swam, and even played beach volleyball (holy hell was that a good work out!) Just dont go super crazy and you should be fine! Have fun and…

This was nice to read! Ive always gotten discouraged at the number on the scale. Meaning as Ive only went down a couple lbs since the end of Jan and its discouraging at times. But I wanna be happy and healthy and thats all that matters

I have gotten better at getting frustrated at 1-2 lb fluctuations. As others have said use happy scale to track your progress and it will help!

White chocolate and reg reeses eggs YUM!!!! And the cadbury creme eggs too. I can only have a couple bc I have the stomach aches I get afterwards :(

Just give it time, dont give up! I hadnt seen a change for a couple weeks too and this past week I've went down a 1.5 lb! Youve just gotta stick with it and re-evaluate if you still arent seeing changes after a month or so.

I get nervous doing even though I make sure to weigh everything and log it. I'm still afraid I might miss something somehow so I just dont even bother.

I felt like I was at a plateau for twoish weeks too. Weighed in yesterday morning after not weighing in since the 19th of feb and I was down two lbs! So I've realized to just keep going at it

you've gotta want it.
