Hellloooo! I'm Nabila from Houston and I'm 22 and I'm right there with ya girl! I've been trying to lose weight for years but I'm in the long haul this time and it'd be awesome to make a few good friends to stay motivated with cause it gets pretty hard at times. If you're still looking for some motivation buddies give me…

No way! I go to UH, but I'm taking a couple classes at HCC at the moment. What about you?

Me me me! Pick me! I'm desperately looking for some motivational buddies to help stick to this healthy lifestyle! I'm 22, I'm a college student, and I'm from Houston

Hiiiii girl! I'm not necessarily new to MFP but I'm not as consistent as I'd like to be either. I'm 22 and I'm Houston, TX. I'm looking for motivation buddies as well! I've tried this with friends and family but they always seem to get bored of it after a couple weeks and I'm trying to stick this out for the long haul! I'm…

Hiiii!! I'm from the Houston/Katy area and totally down to have someone to keep me motivated/maybe even work out with!

Thank you so much! The downward scale looks much better then fixating on my weight each morning!

That's a great way of looking at things! Its more adaptable to daily lifestyle. I'd hate it if I was having to miss out on going out or enjoying time with friends and family because I'm limited to eating such few things. This is the whole point I chose to do IF rather than a strict diet with limited items and strict…

That's amazing!! I hope it works out that well for me! So on fast days do you eat the 500 cals as well? The 2 meals within 7 hrs on eat days sounds great but it's difficult when I'm around family and friends. We tend to go out and I indulge a bit or eat later in the day then when I was hoping. It's lost about 3-4 in the…

Also, what do you guys eat on eat days? Some people may say just eat anything you want but that doesn't seem right. What are you guys eating? I'm working out 3/4 of my eat days so I can just eat anything or I feel gross at the gym.

Just ordered the book. Thanks!!

I've been doing IF for about a week now and I've lost a couple pounds already but it also fluctuates daily...is that normal? Should I not weigh myself everyday? It's a bit discouraging.

So you're actually supposed to eat the 500 calories on fast days? I had heard that you can start that way but are supposed to move off of it when you can. I just get such mixed reviews on IF altogether, it's hard to stay motivated.

So we're the days that he had the banana and coffee and the chicken and veggies considered his "fast days"? I'm usually good with not eating until about like 6:30-7pm. That's when it really gets to me. I even feel guilty about eating those 500 cals.

This article really helped me out! https://medium.com/@sumaya/myifguide-38037b3b1ec4#.udsrwpyez

Yes I do, I stick to water. Sparkling water definitely helps when you feel that pang of hunger. You can eat up to 500 cals and still be considered as fasting.

Yup 3 days! Definitely not consecutive days though. I fast MWF and eat TuThSaSu

I need some friends to keep me motivated as well pleaseeee!! P.S. I'm sometimes funny
