If I had 600 calories left for dinner I'd get a freaking cheeseburger from McDonalds!

I lose when I don't exercise. As long as I eat at a deficit. When I exercise I eat half my exercise calories back and usually lose the same, maybe a tad more on the weeks I do exercise. I exercise because I don't want to lose what little muscle mass I currently have, and so when all the weight comes off I will look toned…

Get a Heart Rate monitor and wear it while you are goat tending :)

It doesn't matter what time you eat, you can eat right before laying in bed. As long as you are at a deficit, and stick to it, the weight will come off. If you always get hungry at night, just make sure to leave enough calories that it fits! I eat ice cream every single night around 9-10pm while watching shows, I make sure…

Back when I lived in Arizona, I always cut our lawn. Even when it was 115 degrees out. Never bothered me, especially since I had a pool to jump in after. When we moved to Florida we didn't take our mower and now have landscapers. I must say, I kinda miss it! (PS I would never let the hubby do it, I am too OCD and he would…

I was craving a snickers ice cream bar until I just ate it, I am currently licking the wrapper :) But thanks to y'all now I am also craving 5 guys!

I always eat 2-3 normal meals (sometimes I eat breakfast, sometimes I don't) and I snack all freaking day long! I usually even eat a fidgsicle or frozen snickers ice cream bar right before bed. As long as you weight and measure everything and log it accurately and stick to a caloric deficit you will lose weight!

I just found out yesterday that my friends dad was stabbed and in ICU. To be fair, we have grown apart quite a bit but still, I've known her and her dad since I was in 4th grade!

If you go from no exercise and start exercising your muscles retain water. The get little tears in them and fill with water to repair them so that is why the weigh more, once the water is lost you'll see a big loss one week. Keep it up!

Same thing here! I want to say something so badly but don't. I'm like No, Cleaning for 20 minutes, moderate effort does not equal 350 calories! LOL Then I know they're putting that in just so they can eat an extra 350 calories today, which makes them go way over since the overestimates exercise calories and underestimated…

Me personally, I would make dang sure to get there before they do and hog all the equipment you know they use until the very last minute before you leave. Do this several days in a row and just stare them down LOL But then again, I am a total B*tch like that LMBO But, from the scenerio you've given above, they weren't even…

Wow what a difference! I bet it feels awesome to go shopping now ;) That's the best part for me, to go shopping and look for a smaller size than I used to LOL You look fantastic! Keep it up!

Just do the C25K program and do your best on your first 5K and that will be you goal to beat. If you finish in 48 minutes, the next one shoot for 45 minutes, then 42 minutes the next time and so on. I started as a NON runner. I have been doing c25K for quite a while. I am still not up to running the whole time. I have done…

I have 6 tatts and just my ears pierced, not sure why tats don't bother me but I am scared to death of piercings LOL Yes, I actually cried when I got my second holes in my ears pierced, I was terrified LOL As a reward when I hit my overall weight goal, which I still have 31 pounds to go... I want to get my biggest tat…

Wow! You don't even look like the same person! If it wasn't for the tat on your arm I'd think you were pulling our chain LOL Amazing job! You are super HOT by the way ;)

Well OP I am not into girls and your profile pic make ME want to stalk you, so yeah LOL

First off I can not for the life of me think why anyone would be concerned about an obese infant?!?!?!? That sounds like an extremely unhealthy parent/child relationship if anyone is concerned that their INFANT is obese? OMG! Childhood obesity can be a problem. But, that has absolutely nothing to do with formula vs.…

Thank you for posting this, it is very inspiring for me. I am 31 and a mom of 4 :D and I have all those struggles with "kid food" in the house, you know dying to sneek a chicken nugget or popsicle lol seeing such an amazing transformation like you've gone through really inspires me!

I eat a fudgesicle almost every night, usually I have string cheese every day and I eat a lean pocket chicken jalepeno cheddar almost every day. YUM

Will a big trampoline do the same as a mini? I have both but the mini is in such bad shape Im sure it'll break if I jump on it LOL But, I do have a big trampoline, I could totally go out there for an hour a day, I haven't thought of it!

I did the HCG drops with the 500 calorie diet. It was the most terrible thing I have ever done to myself. I got horrible migraines, was starving and tired. That's probably because of the 500 calories though, not the HCG. The food you are allowed to have is bland and terrible discusting. I did lose lots of weight but gained…

I think it's pretty funny when someone who doesn't have kids judges us that do and our parenting techniques. I have 4 kids. Most of the time I make something for dinner we all will enjoy. However, now that I am watching my calories, I usually make some type of low calorie dish for me and then something else for my husband…

Well tonight I am having 4 shots of coffee liqueur I bought a while back and have been dying to open! Its so good, 53 calories per shot. I put 4 shots into MFP! I am excited LOL

As others have said, it's just your muscles getting stronger and retaining water to heal themselves. I always weigh in on Monday mornings, first thing. If I exercise Sunday my weight is usually the same as the previous Monday or even a pound up (even though I probably actually lost 1-2lbs of actualy weight). So then I…

Well I wear a 38DDD but my cup size shouldn't change much since they aren't real ;) Before I gained the weight I am trying to lose I was a 34DDD

#1 with boots. I just think #2 will look like too much is going on with boots

Next time so you know, you can replace butter with applesauce, I do that all the time in cakes and brownies ;) also you can use plain greek yogurt instead of butter

I've lost 16 lbs since January 1st and I have gone out drinking once a week! I'll be drinking tonight and possibly tomorrow night as a matter of fact! ;) If I know beforehand that Im going to be drinking, I eat less calories for the day and exercise that day. I normally eat around 1400-1500 calories. Today I will be eating…

Thanks everyone. I had NO idea there was even such a thing as bike shorts that has padding down there to help with discomfort! I will definitely buy a pair and maybe even pair it with the padded bike seat. Yes, it hurts me that bad! LOL I appreciate everyones input!

I saw on Ebay I can buy silicone seat covers, but will I look totally stupid walking in and slipping on a padded seat? LOL
