SW: 275 CW: 207 GW: 202ish Weekly goals for May: Ugh, figure out some sort of strength training, thinking maybe yoga designed for strength? I'm just too intimated to do the equipment at the gym. I wish I had friends lol.

Punishing myself, meaning "I ate x, so now I can't eat dinner" which made me give up. That was many a years ago and I've since learned the importance of having compassion and forgiveness for yourself.

I eat white rice, potatoes, pizza (yes delivery), cake, cookies, whatever I want and I've lost almost 70lbs now and still going. I just budget for the things I want. That said I do encourage adding in fruits and veggies. I find a healthier diet is easier when you focus on adding "good" things instead of banning the "bad"…

😥 Yes, I used to bleach my upper lip but I still felt like it was noticable and the whiskers on my chin are black demons that resist bleaching at all cost. My skin changes colors before they do. I can get in some pretty fierce sideburns too.

*Takes a deep breath* So here's the thing, odds are you use a sulfate shampoo, sulfate strips the natural oils from your scalp that your scalp wants to be there. So the more you do this the more oil your scalp will produce meaning you get a greasy scalp faster (there's a gray area here for people going through puberty…

I have a noticable amount of facial hair for a female. I hate it and religiously epilate/pluck it. I won't shave it because the idea of my partner touching my face and feeling stubble is horrifying to me.

Well a few years ago when I was 275lbs my goal was 200lbs now that I'm at 207lbs, I dunno, I still just feel like the same fat girl I was back then. 160ish maybe? I'm not really sure I'll ever feel like I'm not just a fat girl.

I don't shampoo but once every other month or so, and my conditioner varies, currently it's either Shae moisture or not your mother's. I always pick sulfate and silicone free products cause curly. *I don't recommend going without shampoo unless you have soft water.

This - out of sight, out of mind.

From my own research bcaa can help muscles recover but will not help with the actual growth of them. Do what you want with that information. I take vitamin D supplements, extra in the winter cause I get seasonal depression. I wouldn't recommend taking supplements "just because" - that's a waste of money. Figure out what…

After I had already lost a significant amount of weight, my mom told me she was proud of me. My mom has always tried to gently nudge me down a heathier path often times by doing it herself and trying to lead by example. I was just boasting one night on the phone with her about my weight loss and she stops me and says "I'm…

I went over today. I had a wonderful event with coworkers as one of them is retiring. It was beautiful, fun, and so tasty! I might have teared up a little cause I'm really going to miss that lady. You can't live life in a box. Enjoy your events, do your best and tomorrow go back to heathy eating habits and control. If you…

Keep in mind those statistics include the countless people who are tricked by the get thin quick lies and fad diets the media drowns us in. There is significantly less information readily available for heathy sustainable weight loss/heathy living than there is lies being sold by big companies. Not to sound like a…

PJs and messy hair but still have eyeliner cause can't be bothered to take it off.

I had this problem and I used a mix of the previous commenters' suggestions. Eating fruit everyday curbs my sweet tooth by an impressive amount, but it takes about two weeks before I notice(I've fallen off my wagon a few times). Then when it's a legit craving I have just a small amount of ice cream, or I make myself a…

I fourth(?) Adrianne, she's funny and easy to follow.

Gargle warm salt water, and/or lemon water. Neither of these are fixes but they should ease symptoms somewhat.

I would love to see your progress, if you do it I might be bothered to figure out selfies in a mirror. 😁

Definitely volunteer. Maybe get back into art, definitely sew, and hopefully write a book- something I've always wanted to do.

Teeth, straight, white teeth - on anyone.

You poor soul.... And at $150.00... That's intense. The only advise I can think of is homemade soups. You control what's in it and make large batches for minimal money.

I have a list of feet problems and started to have issues with shin splints. I found out it was because I was trying to correct my steps with my toes, so I would be unconsciously clenching my toes while walking. As soon as I realized that and made myself use my thighs and calves more they went away. Just my 2¢.

So cute. I think it also helps me eat slower too. I might try and find some cute dessert cups. There's something so endearing about a little plate filled up with my food.
