  • We're in July so that means she lost it in a month, which is a nice healthy rate of loss. Good job!

  • Thanks! Probably just ate too much sodium then. I have been eating frozen food a ton lately. Haha.
  • It's only really okay to say something if the advice is asked for. I don't walk up to random people smoking and say it's bad for them, but if someone asked for my opinion on whether they should smoke then I would tell them how unhealthy it is. Usually people have more of a problem with calling out their weight when it is…

  • I was actually just thinking this week that I'm finally used to my calorie count. I've been doing MFP about a month now. The other post really is right though, doing activities instead of snacking really helps. I started walking and skateboarding if I got the urge to just snack on some chips. Usually you just want to be…
  • She got it from a fat acceptance blog? Seems a bit biased and not only that, what a terrible thing to remind people of. Everyone should be happy with their self-image, but shaming people for trying to be healthier is just hypocritical coming from someone who reads a fat acceptance blog.
  • I make a smoothie every morning with basically all your ingredients plus kale, spinach, and chia seeds. I also add vanilla protein powder. I love it as a breakfast because I'm never too hungry in the morning anyways. It keeps me energized too, which is nice. I notice a lot of people don't like shakes much because they…
  • Thanks for all the help. Much appreciated! Gonna up my calories and take up some more strength training. I was just in fear of upping my calories cause I'm a short guy and didn't want to start gaining, but it's worth doing to check the progress.
  • For sure, thanks a ton. I'm good on protein then, but I'll have to look into other strength training stuff. God I hate strength training though. I'd rather skate or do cardio, but I guess that's not enough. Oh well, I'll fit it in somehow.
  • I started the beginning of this year.
  • Well, I started at 240 and lost ten pounds quickly probably due to water weight. I slowed down and picked up MFP at 222, so I don't think it's all water weight. It recommends that because I put 2 lbs a week as my goal. I figured it was healthy too because I guess a healthy weight for my height is 150. I feel fine on 1500…
  • I was able to skateboard today! I'm down about 30 lbs from 240 and even though I still have a ways to go it was great to be able to actually be able to do tricks and skate around again. It's something I've desperately missed doing since highschool. I started college three years ago and began a much more sedentary…
