Really though I think this is going to be my strategy. That was the only way I was actually able to not have a donut this morning. I started working here the same time as this other girl and I've watched her balloon, I almost caved but she took two donuts right as I got there. I just turned around and logged cheese in my…

Soups! Pack a large pot with whatever veggies you like, add a protein and your favorite seasonings and water. Viola, just skip the creams, potatoes and rice/noodles/biscuits and add large amounts of filler veggies like cabbage. My current favorites are Cabbage and white bean, roasted red pepper, chicken noodle (with only a…

Roasted red pepper soup is good too, fills you up more than you would think.

Cabbage and white bean soup - my recipe is only ~168 calories for 2 cups of soup (so room for a sprinkle of hard cheese or some extra lean protein added!

The main reason was that she would lie to herself about how much she was eating and…

It will get better. At my worst, I was 230 at 5'5. I couldn't even walk to class without being winded. I use to have to pause and catch my breath before walking into a classroom so no one would know I was so winded. God forbid if I had to go upstairs. Now it's much better. I am still not in shape, but stairs and long…

This place only works for me when I have some people to be inspired by. So lets be friends!

I first started using this app/site a couple years ago with a friend of mine. It worked really well, I was just trying to get control of my eating habits and kinda stare the amount of food I put away a day in the face. I lost near 60 lbs. Then my friend stopped using it, then I stopped using it, then I gained weight back…
