I have the same issue, my boobs have shrunk marginally compared with the rest of me, so I'm about a 34DD. It's really hard to find bras and shirts that fit, and fit well. I have to forget any dress or camisole with a shelf, or any style that has what I like to call "triangle boobs" because it just doesn't look right. For…

My sister was a serious DC addict, she drank probably almost a 2 liter per day, sometimes six or seven cans. Definitely didn't help her ADD! She was able to kick the addiction by just drinking WAY more water than Diet Coke. Now for something sweet she drinks coconut water (which is mucho expensivo). I had a brief high…

I just get regular plain ol' flakes of something - I like the Kashi 7 grain flakes, and then I add honey, whatever fruit I have, and a little bit of cinnamon. I also eat it with almond milk which is lower in calories and tastes sweeter, even the unsweetened kind.

Yes! It works quite well for me, especially with a smaller sports bra. The sports bra prevents bouncing and escaping and the regular bra prevents the Uniboob.

Are you starting from a habit of working out regularly or are you starting from scratch? My boyfriend just did one day of the Insanity workout after not working out AT ALL and he's been too sore to walk normally for three days now.

My favorite homemade dressing (works well for cold pasta dishes too): Two gloves garlic, chopped a bit of onion, chopped very small let the garlic and onion soak in 1/4 cup of lemon juice add 1/4 cup EVOO and 1/4 cup white wine vinegar add 1/2 teaspoon of basil and oregano 1/4 tsp salt OR 1 squirt of brown mustard 1/4 tsp…

I sometimes do something similar during the week, I get stressed and busy at work and don't find enough time or appetite to eat anything until I get off around 6...so I went the whole 8 hour work day on no fuel but coffee and water. It's awful and tiring and makes me make bad food choices when i get home, even if the…

I went vegetarian because I was the cook of the house and I was sick of making two separate meals since two of my sisters are vegetarian. I kind of gradually phased meat out before I realized, hey I haven't had meat in a while maybe I should keep going. So it was a really smooth transition, and I can honestly say I haven't…

I don't think this actually helps, but I always weight naked and lift up my boobs while I'm doing it.

Oooh I have a few of these stories! I'm gonna go through and read everyone's little by little, because it is sort of painful to hear all these experiences. But this is how we got here, right? When I was at my biggest, I went on a college trip to England, and there was a night when we had to run to catch the last train back…

:happy: Thanks for the feedback everybody! The general idea I'm getting is that I shouldn't obsess, but still log most of what I use. I do use a lot because my pans are craptacular, and I got out of the habit of microwaving when my mom got rid of hers so everything I heat is on the pan. And now I'm thinkin I probably…

highschool graduation, 2007, 210 lbs college graduation, 2011, 190 lbs! heaviest at 230 lbs, 2009 last month, 165 lbs! edit: sorry that last one is so huge! my face is totally in your face haha

I bought an electric scale from Walmart for like 10 dollars a year ago, and now it plays pranks on me. I'll get on and it'll be like "5,000 pounds!" and I'll be like WHAT? and it'll be like "Just kidding, you reached your goal weight!" and I'll be like WHAT?!? and it'll be like "lol just kidding, same as last week." I…

I didn't personally notice any difference after I took it for six months, but when I went back to my hairdresser who recommended it she showed me the new growth near my scalp and how much thicker it was. Like any vitamin, I have trouble remembering to take it every day, so I can't track consistent progress since then.

Thanks guys! It probably is a little loose fat around my stomach and arms that can be toned up, but it's definitely just extra skin around my breasts. I'll try more toning exercises in that area but it's tough! Haha.

Definitely! I went from a 22 to a 10, and I still find myself holding up pants and just the distance between my hands makes me feel like they won't fit. I spend waaaay more time in the dressing room, and I usually have to take 3 or 4 different sizes of each thing with me. When I was big, at least I knew my self. I could go…

I agree with the above, I took it to keep my hair healthy but didn't notice anything else except my skin was a little brighter. It doesn't matter if you take a little more than the daily recommended or not (600-800?) because you will just pee the extra out.

Thanks to you both! I am proud of myself for making it this far, but I'm not satisfied just yet.

Thank you all! Good tips, I will keep it all in mind to stay on track and not cheat myself out of time!

I love your attitude! I wish I had the strength to look away from the scale, I use it everyday even though I know I shouldn't. Something about those little numbers makes me feel more in control. I'm glad your significant other is supportive, that is very important! Anyway, Happy Almost Birthday! Good luck on your goals, I…

Truth! I find I'm way more successful if I vary my diet as much as possible. I'll have one day where I hit way below my total calories, and then the next day I go over a bit. I'm a big portion, lots of meals kind of person, so I have to be careful what I eat due to the large quantities. For example, yesterday I made black…
