It's actually recommended by a doctor that you step away from your computer screen for a few minutes every hour to give your eyes a break and keep your body in motion, so if anyone seems to have an issue with it, just tell them it's doctor's orders! I work in banking and sit in front of a screen all day. I try to walk for…

When it happened to me, it was because my food wasn't being calculated properly. There are a lot of different options in MFP, and there were times when I wasn't using the right one or I was underestimating the portion sizes. In addition, most of the time I would skip adding the little things like coffee/creamer, or crystal…

Rescue!! For every puppy bought from a breeder, another dog dies in a shelter. And most shelters give you a foster trial to see if the dog works well with your family and your lifestyle. #adoptdontshop

You sound a lot like myself..... I have a tendency to feel and think the same thing about my body when I look in the mirror. Sometimes that feeling is what motivates you to work harder and stay committed. I am also the heaviest I've ever been and I know that it's bc of laziness and overeating, so I am tough on myself. But…

Be careful when asking for this type of advice........ some people will get very rude and judgmental at the idea for taking supplements for energy. I learned that the hard way!

I have definitely struggled with this for years as well. I found that cutting back little by little was what helped me. If I was eating 3000 calories a day on average, I cut it back to 2800 for a week. I didn't even notice the 200 calories once I added more water to my diet. The next week I cut back another 200. If that…

I have 2.... one is to feel comfortable in a bikini by August and the second is a vacation planned in October. I'm definitely going to go somewhere sunny and hot so I want to look great!

Yes please!

It really comes down to your deficit. I would guess that your calorie intake or outtake isn't accurate. If you're consistently in a deficit, then you will lose weight. On days that you're not in a deficit, your intake should be the calories you need to maintain your weight, which will prevent you from gaining anything back.

I'm down 11 lbs but I still have 64 lbs to go...... so my plan is to at least be comfortable in a bathing suit by August! This is the heaviest I've been and summer is my favorite season so it's killing me to avoid the pool :(

I've discovered that if I'm consistently keeping my core tight while doing anything, that helps to define my ab muscles. Whether you're walking, cleaning the house, lifting, even sitting on the couch... if I'm mindful about keeping those muscles tight throughout the day, it makes a significant difference. In the beginning,…

Martial arts! There are SO many different forms to choose from. People typically associate martial arts with aggression and heavy strikes, but many of them focus on forms, pressure points, and an overall healthy mindset. I've taken a handful of different forms, just for a little variety and seeing what I like best, but I…

Long-term, I definitely don't want to function. Once I'm in a position to maintain, I absolutely want to exercise for the enjoyment and having a higher caloric intake will certainly help to minimize that feeling of "earning food".
-
That was very helpful! I do love guac, so I can see the drive to run there lol........... To an extent, I see the calorie burn as "earning food" since my calorie goal is only 1,200 right now, but mostly, I think I view the calories burned as a measurement of whether or not my workout was too much or not effective enough. I…

I do struggle with this mentality a little bit. I find it difficult to find that happy medium between not doing enough and doing too much. There's so many different opinions on how hard you should push yourself so it makes it difficult for me to consistently put in the same level of effort for every work out. Is there a…

@AnnPT77 @Ara_the_halfelven @ExistingFish I'm so glad I asked this question! Seeing your responses and looking back on my food diaries, I think my protein intake is too low and I'm definitely not monitoring my electrolyte intake. Normally, I go over my sodium intake a bit bc it doesn't adjust for exercise like everything…
