  • I agree with the above post! My trick is to try my best to plan calories ahead of time. If I know I want to go out with friends, then I pre-calculate my glasses of wine. I try to be really really good the entire rest of the day, and get a cardio session in in the morning. Then I allow myself to enjoy time with my friends,…
  • The four high school boys at my gym last night who were literally huddled together the whole time, chatting, looking at their phones, staring at me and occasionally doing dumbbell rows really really fast. I truly mean no offense to all men, but most men at the gym are the reason I feel like I should cover up, or at least…

  • Chicken breast gets so boring but I know it is so good for me! I love fish so I will try to add more into my diet. And cottage cheese, yes I always forget about cottage cheese! I'm a weirdo that actually really likes it. My caloric deficit is set at around 1.5 lb per week. I do make sure to eat more on days I exercise.
  • I always forget that I can add protein powders to other foods besides shakes! Lol so silly of me. Love this idea for a recipe, thank you. I should also get in the habit of adding it to things like oatmeal and pancakes.
  • I really appreciate the concern that 1200 calories may not be enough but I have calculated my TDEE as roughly 1700. I am 24 yo female, 5'3", starting weight 160 (now ~155) and I work a sedentary job. 1200 calories is a 500 calorie deficit, about a pound a week. I am trying to exercise 4 times a week and when I do I eat…

  • Adding you! I'm also looking for friends
  • I highly highly recommend downloading a weight trend app like Happy Scale (iOS) or Libra (Android). I also get stuck on the numbers and get really discouraged if I don't lose something every day. Happy Scale is awesome because it shows that while to me the daily numbers seem small, overall I am losing!! Really really…
  • My favorite way to eat pasta is to add tons of chopped veggies with it! Like zucchini or eggplant! Then serve with whatever sauce/meat I'm craving. Helps a LOT to add volume with vegetables.
  • Congratulations! Such an incredible accomplishment. Do you have any tips for how to successfully lose it?
