  • 15 lbs is not 60! You can do this! Feel free to add me as a friend- support is key to success in weight loss!
  • Hi!! Feel free to add me as a friend! I teach Zumba- and because of it lots tons of weight (that and diet of course). Nothing wrong with chocolate- everything in moderation. But sugar in itself can be a major problem- its toxic if consumed in high quantities- plus weight gain. A great book- Sugar Busters- learned a lot…
  • good job! You look great! I am finally hitting that point of weight loss where people are really noticing- and its a little uncomfortable. I don't want to draw attention to myself- I'd like to just fit in- especially in the fitness world, because I teach fitness- I want to look the part. Go by your sizes- you are a 7/8?…
  • Its true! Mirrors lie! But photos don't. As I had begun my weight gain the last time- I had gotten down to 170, (which for my height/frame is a very ideal weight). I looked great- so although my clothes were getting tighter- and I knew I was blowing my diet- I just ingored and thought I looked fine. But photos don't lie. I…

  • You know- been down a similar road- and those comments can often come before a spouse cheats. I am not saying he is, but if he is mid life crisising- and now telling you this, instead of helping you get fit too, and working together as a team, its a definite reason for concern. Tell him you aren't attracted to him right…

  • Thanks for sharing- you look great!!! And I am sure your quality of life is so much better- very inspirational!!!
  • If only there was one magic answer...............!! There is- remember that this is a journey- not a race. You will have good and bad days but giving up is not an option. Maybe for a day- but realize your health and wellness will continue to decline if you don't make changes. Not sure how old you are- but life will deal…
  • Hey- take what you learned about this and yourself and learn from it! I can't go on a mass carb intake- my body flips and I gain fast too! Yes even a week will undo months of hard work, depending on your body. Have a good cry- its ok, this is frustrating - then take what you have and learn. Instead of a new years…
  • "LIKE"!! Great advice- don't trade one vice for another- the whole point of MFP wanting us to log our water is we don't get enough. We need clean hydration- and its the cheapest form out there.
  • If you cut out too many things at once- just for a NY resolution, you'll fall off the goal without change. I gave up sodas almost 20 yrs ago. My dr made me- it wasn't Pepsi it was Coke- but same addiction nonetheless. I'd take it down to as few as possible- do you drink coffee? Much better for you (as far as natural) than…

  • If I had 400 remaining calories at night- I'd fit in a workout- personally I need more than that for dinner :)
  • Taught Zumba 60 minutes- approx 700 calorie burn. Done til tomorrow- another class to teach and then taking Body Pump!!
  • Original OP- why do you keep posting only 7700 calories when you are clearly hitting above that - often doubling it? Is it to show off? I thought the point was for us all to challenge ourselves based on week before?
  • Week 4 Goal : 6000- This week is going to be a real challenged- I was scheduled to sub 2 classes on Friday that both got cancelled. But I am going to do all I can anyway (teaching classes forces me in the gym) wink My gym is closed today but I found another one open - 1 day drop in fee-thats fine, I am determined to hit…
  • Yes- I eat them back, if I need them. Rarely do I eat them all back, but I do eat when I am hungry. I hydrate (water only) when I get hunger pains to first ensure it is real hunger

  • hate to give dating relationship advice- so I won't. But this relationship, if you can call it that- is one sided. What about your needs? Life is just way too short to waste good energy on those who hurt you repeatedly- wish you the best!
  • There is a great book out there called sugar busters- I learned alot about that. Best thing you can do is remove it- you can't eat it if its not there. You'll go thru a few rough days of withdrawal but your body will thank you- and cravings should stop completely
  • A couple days of overeating won't destroy any progress- maybe a minor setback that you can fix within the next week. Now if you decided to say screw it and eat one you want from Thanksgiving - Dec 25th (or like many- just wait til January) that is a whole lot of work to get back to where you were before. No I did not gain-…
  • No foods to be blamed- just my own self control and education about what is really in the food! :) Now- I don't shop like I used to. I buy candy- but I buy mini candy bars- and 1 or 2 max is all I will ever have. If I know I am going to eat something unhealthy- like this week invited to a pizza party- I knew it was homeade…
  • Glad you are all here!!! Weight loss is a journey- and there are hiccups- we will push you! :) Feel free to add me as a friend!
  • Don't we all??? :) That's the point! I'd talk to a nutritionist first, or a personal trainer- find out your BF %. Let them help you set realistic goals. You are still young- your body is 18, and could very well still be in developmental stages. I know image seems like everything, but your pictures show a very healthy…
