  • There's wireless headphones?! Haha I'm so out of the loop! That's awesome!
  • **also type of headphones that are best?
  • Lol okay yea, maybe I'm just extra hungry, I'll just keep on going!
  • Thank you everyone!! And yes we all had fun, we want to do one at the end of summer, this time some training lol! It was a lot of fun, really neat to be racing than being on the side cheering on!
  • Thank you that helps! Although I do have to keep up with my 5 year old, she does try Jillian michels with me sometimes lol!
  • I am thinking of sending my hubby in my place
  • Number 4! A cheat day, for me, is a cheat DAY! Although, I will admit when that happens, I feel like complete garbage that night and the next day!! I tend to do it on special occasion or on some holidays (made it through Easter with zero cheating!) I watched a video once showing that once a week, and only once a week…
  • And I agree- don't cut out fruits! Just watch your daily sugar intake and don't go overboard... you can have what you want in moderation!
  • This same thing happened to me too.. I thought, well my calories are less and years ago I lost it without working out... For me, I wasn't eating the best food choices compared to doing this years ago, plus I have to work out at least twice a week to lose... Are you sure you're measuring accurately? I agree get a scale and…
  • YES!!!! My sister in law drives me INSANE! She's so baffled that I lost 80 pounds, and keeps going from fad diet to fad diet, and with this new one she "can't wait for it to be over so I can eat good food again!" You don't need a fad diet to lose weight, there is no magic way to lose it, like you said, it's math! Eat less…
  • Thank you everyone!!
  • I always gain 1-2 pounds during ovulation!! I gain 2-3 days leading up to my period, I just hate that ovulation weight!
  • Honestly I eat my "dinner" for breakfast lol, maybe switch up your meals one morning
  • I actually just realized after I posted this and my hubby tried this saying- sorry but it tastes like cauliflower... so I guess cauliflower is the ONLY vegetable I like!
  • I love butter with certain foods- sometimes it doesn't taste good without it- I literally open one end of the butter stick, and rub it quickly around the pan, it coats it in a very thin layer of butter, and I end up only using a hair of it, so I usually don't count it. Otherwise I agree to weigh it first then count it!
  • I used to be exactly like your friend!! This time around I've been eating clean, and it's clearly a better choice. I do know it's hard to not want to jump in and tell her that your way is better, even though it is (and I indulge sometimes) but I think the best thing you can do is just keep doing what you're doing, the more…
  • You "salute" him? He is in no way helping her mentally or helping her understand what she can do to help her situation; he gave her an extremely dramatic hypothetical (400 and bedbound? That's a 100 pound weight gain, and the more you weigh initially the less your body packs on during pregnancy). He gave her a quick fix…
  • Also; you may have to lose some weight on your own to convince your OB that your issue is not weight related, and have him get you checked out for other issues- although from what I've read, obesity can cause some infertility, so either way losing some weight over the next few months would show him that, 1- you don't need…
  • This is completely ridiculous! Your is clearly way more educated than I am, but I am against weight loss surgery unless you are obese enough that you're having health problems at a HUGE weight, and cannot lose it on your own after attempts. I got pregnant at 280. I was surprised because it only took one try, and I had been…
  • I have depression and anxiety, and the past couple years I started to get anxiety attacks- the physical symptoms of anxiety- for me- have gone down since losing weight, mainly working out.. I'm more focused on my diet than my anxiety, it's like exercise is my body distracting itself from anxiety. I completely agree that…
  • I drink more water! I honestly just suck it up and exercise more when I know it's coming to distract myself from just sitting and thinking of eating all the chocolate I can find! There have been months where I gave in a bit, just don't over do it!
  • I'm right there with you!! Started at 215, 6 months in I made it down to 158 Gained back to 170, lost 5 pounds then gave up Gained a to during my pregnancy and was up to 246! Got down to 212 with breastfeeding and a good diet ... few years passed and I was at my highest weight- 278 ☹️ I seriously couldn't even think except…
  • Great job getting out and running! I know exactly what you mean, and I think the hardest part is getting back up and starting again, and you've done that! Wish you luck!
  • *** this isn't me! I saw it from a link on Facebook! I just liked how it showed how strained our bodies must be when morbidly obese, I still have a ways to go to be like the pic on the right!
  • I've done low carb before, and definitely agree that you lose more weight- which is usually just water- and gain it back quickly- can you keep eating that low of carbs for the rest of your life? If not then you will gain it back!! Since low carb can be low or extremely low, I suggest you do what works for you, something…
  • This is EXACTLY why I made the full switch over to MFP from weight watchers, which was always my go to even as a teen!! They say you can eat what you want, but of course you pay for it in more points.. problem is, most people, from what I've seen or heard, including myself, are under the 1200 limit!! No one should be…
  • I know for me, personally, eating small meals with water with and between meals keeps me more full, rather than 3 bigger meals and I tend to feel more hungry and want to snack.. I hope it boosts your metabolism, but I don't think if it does that it would be some huge difference
