I am drinking on average 100oz of water a day (i aim for 200 but get at least the 100)....and when i mix a soda in during the day with the water consumption...it's like i jacked everything up. it really bloats me bad. and KNOWING THIS - i fell for the buy 3,…

I tend to buy quick fix microwave stuff for sides that come in single servings - then i just make the meat count that i want at time of dinner. like uncle ben's ready rice bowls - and steam veg bags - etc. only time i tried the make a batch and freeze some for later method - i did hamburger helper, and the noodles were…

i'm on a big breakfast green smoothie kick right now myself - i wonder, at the mention of the flavor it gives off...if it might go well in a smoothie?

joining in the rant! this is my 1st one yall. lol. I agree w/ this ranting here - which goes with kinda the op rant. that's the one off-putting thing of the website - is that there are 50 different versions of the ONE thing i need to register. pineapple, potatoes, etc. or even for the fast food listings - there are at…

Hi my PCOS sisters! lol. I am 31 (as of march this year) and I have been dealing with the PCOS monster for about 1 year now....(i guess longer, but medically aware of what it is for about a year now)... AND I have been w/o a thyroid/on meds for that since 2005 - I got the weight gain blues from all angles lol - from my…

BABY SPINACH! I put that stuff on EVERYTHING! - breakfast smoothies, sandwiches, pasta dishes - etc. It's something in the neighborhood of 4CUPS=20CALS....i realized early on, i like to eat a lot. HAHAHAHA (duh) But later on I realized, I could still eat a lot of LOW CAL stuff - such as the magical BABY SPINACH :)

^^mind = blown. this made me giddy like a school girl haha awesome thread people!!! :)

don't know how many oz you have to/want to drink in a day - but what has helped me is the jumbo smart water bottles. It's 50.7 fl oz. I chose personally to operate under the idea of "half my body weight - in oz of water a day" as oppose to the basic 8, 8oz a day. So I thought, "JEEZ I'll be swimming in water by the time…

don't know if you are into youtube makeup videos...but you might go there and look up Michelle Phan, or Promise Phan - they are really wonderful Asian (I believe) makeup gurus there and I'm sure they'd have loads of tips to help you. :)

Hi ya Ken (I assume your name is Ken from your username anyway lol) I'm sending you a friend request - I'd be interested in following along with you on your journey to October, and cheering you on when you reach goal! :) As far as your question - the thing that has helped me the most...... soon as i realized I CAN have…

That's exactly what happened to me. i was getting too scale obsessed, and using bad #'s as an excuse to do whatever i wanted and eat whatever. since i changed to 1x a month - MUCH LESS STRESS. you spend your time looking @ quality of foods, how they make you feel - do they kill the hunger, was it worth eating etc - as…

something i recently discovered: 1 lil' debbie pecan round (100 cals) 1 cup of mixed fruit in the pre-packaged lil' small bowls (80 cals) YUM-MEE!

Wow what an awesome idea! I am probably the last person on the face of the earth without a facebook (had one but gave it up for resolution 2012 and never went back lol).... so I may borrow the idea for myself to do at my home. thanks!

Turn the negative feelings about the comments, into positive feelings! :) Maybe consider them saying those things to you because you're clearly doing a good job, and it's showing - not that they're trying to bring you down. People are noticing the weight, and instead of falling all over you with compliments and stuff -…

Nothing feels worse than a family member telling you that you should look into gastric bypass surgery, or any other weightloss service. Your logic knows they only say it because they care, but your heart says - OF ALL PEOPLE they should be the ones to believe in me the most! I know how you feel 100% pal. Friend request…

^THIS 100% - I've found personally my best route is to make a daily effort to do my best. If things don't pan out 100% perfect, it appears I'm still doing better than in the beginning, so I pick myself up, dust myself off, and start all over again asap. If food is motivating you, but you're not progressing as quickly,…

100% honest here - my job allowed it as an approved website to use while on the clock - and I work at an answering service and it can get boring, so I started tinkering around with it. Glad I did though - loving the place! :)

probably around 28 - when other people casually mentioned it this year at 31 is when i started seeing them myself - like up around the crown area and stuff. but i'm a fan of tinsel at christmas time and stuff - and to me they kinda shimmer against my naturally dark brown/black hair - so i just think of them as sparklers…

Hi ya Sammie! Feel free to add me if you'd like. Now I won't be necessarily the yell at you kind of person lol - but I'd be the person to chit chat with and share stories of what's working for me. Also - trust in the fact, and be comfortable with the fact that - there are people in the world bigger than you are right now.…

Arby's junior roast beef from their dollar menu is pretty decent. For me it's more like a "snack" but for your size it'd probably fill you up lol. I went around to several of my fave hot spots and picked up their printed out menus - goal to make a quick list in a mini notebook to keep in my purse for times like this - for…

Welcome! Hope you stick around. The site is so user friendly! And I'd love to read your blogs. I fancy myself a writer too - but don't do it nearly as much. Sending you a friend request now :)

well let me mention I tried mine with a tomato in it this morning... I don' t like to eat tomatoes at all - but i still want to get the benefits they can give me...so i thought heck it's technically a fruit right? We got this 1/4 of a tomato left - so let's throw it in a smoothie with other fruit and see what happens.…
