Hi tall ladies!! 5'11 here looking to lose at least 10# more, and need to get back on track! SW was 230#, now at ~180-185#. Added you all!

Have added several of you - looking to refresh my friends list! I am 28 years old, 5'11 183# - down 45 in about a year, and looking to lose at least 15 more pounds!

Okay .. so I'm 28, but figured I could be an honorary member! I'm 5'11#, 193# about 25# to go until my initial goal weight .. and we'll see what happens after that! Feel free to add :)

5'11, CW - 197 GW - 170 (for now!)

Finding tall ladies like myself is my jam! 5'11 here. Added you all :)

I'm 28, and down nearly 30 from my heaviest ever with about 30 to go to my goal weight(for now!). Would love a supportive group of women to encourage each other!

Hi!! I'm 27 and looking to lose about 45 more pounds. Added you!

Love it! Sending out requests to you all. Age: 27 Occupation: Registered Dietitian (Geriatrics) College (alum/current student): University of Wisconsin Madison BS 2011, Benedictine University MS 2013 Location: Minneapolis, Minnesota Fitness Goals: 45# to go until my goal weight. We'll see after that :) Exercising: Goal is…

I'm 5'11 and my goal is ~165#. But, goals are fluid and can always change :) I haven't been below 180# for about 6 years, so I can't really picture myself like that anymore. I mostly just want to feel sexy in and out of my clothes again!

I'm a dietitian, and for healthy people we recommend 0.8-1.0 g/kg body weight. So, divide your weight by 2.2 and that's about how many gm you want to aim for. Obviously, when dieting some people prefer to adjust their macros, but that's a good baseline.

I use the Optimum Gold Standard as well.

Me me me! A native Sconnie but now reside in Minneapolis :).

I'm in Minnesota and ultimate goal is 60 lbs loss. Feel free to add :)

Another binge drinker here -- moderation is not my strong point in any facet of my life. I'm abstaining for awhile and being honest with myself and recording ALL alcohol calories. Glad to find friends in a similar boat!!

I'm one. Sent you a message!

Thanks ladies, sent lots of adds! Keep em' coming!

I used to work at VS -- and we no longer had "quotas" to sell but we did try to measure as many people as we can - so do NOT feel obligated to buy something! (and yes, some of us do actually know how to do it correctly, but haters gon hate!)

24 as well.. added!!

It is very rare, but there is such a thing as water intoxication. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_intoxication If you start feeling dizzy, lightheaded (despite drinking lots of water) or have altered mental status - then I'd cut back on the water.

Just like my coffee - strong, dark, and hot!! :laugh:

Bananas are high in potassium -- which can prevent cramping. Also, they are a good source of carbohydrate for energy before a workout!

24 and just getting started again -- anyone can feel free to add!

Dessa! my goddess!

I recently have started growing mine out from a short bob as well -- I started taking Nature's Bounty - Hair, Skin, and Nails vitamins in September and have noticed a HUGE difference -- especially in my nails! I have had people ask me if they are my real nails because they are so strong and look acrylic! My hair has grown…

bump bump thanks ladies and gents!

The only thing i have read in regards to a ketogenic diet and neurologic conditions is that it is effective for people with intractible epilepsy but is only recommended if nothing else (medications, lifestlye changes i.e. sleep patterns, alcohol use etc.) has worked. I wouldn't recommend it -- but if you can find…
