This is what im currently trying! I have been plateauing for 3 months

thanks! I guess ill just play around with it

why / when did you think oreos were healthy?

honestly most of these can be very healthy. Eating a good about of fruit should never be considered unhealthy, unless you have a specific condition. Skippy peanut butter is not good for you. But natural peanut butter with no added salt or sugar? Thats a really good source of protein and oil. Its not the foods in their…

I have a water bottle, i bring it with me everywhere. Drink water in class, when im walking places, when im at work, when im at the library. If you have it with you all the time its easier. Its so much easier to focus when im well hydrated !

seriously only count water as water. As soon as you add something to water it changes the balance, and when you put it in your body than the water has to interact with the solutes in your water instead of just directly hydrating you.

Oh mann i love black coffee! Also, soymilk

Trying to lose weight is very frustrating though, it might be a defense mechanism. I know I was frustrated that i gained 45 lbs while working out 6 days a week. People just gave me advice I was already taking, so you never really know what somones story is.

People often know what they need to do but they want to vent about the situation first.

From november to january I did this, I ate under 1200 almost every day and I worked out all the time, the eliptical mainly. It was awesome, I lost 26 lbs and i was really happy and proud of myself. However, I have been seriously plateauing since then. I cant help but think its because my metabolism get so slow from the…

anyone ?

there are studies that show that hormonal birth control does not impact weight gain. OBGYNs will often tell you that point blank. From experience, Millions of women know that is not true. If there are new hormones in your body at levels your body did not create then there is a chance your body will change. Im obviously not…

It depends what your experiences with other birth control has been. I literally was a different person on any hormonal birth control, and I gained 45 lbs while I was on the pill. (I tried 3 different kinds). So yes, the paraguard hurt to put in (for like 1 day) and my cramps are really bad, but they are getting better the…

YES fat is harder than thin. I think everyone has had hurtful experiences if they are overweight. That being said, people do seem to be meaner to women who are thin. I have friends Im afraid to eat healthy food in front of because i know there will be some bull**** confrontation.

You know what annoys me way more though? people who dont work out and dont eat healthy are are half my size.

Uggg i totally know how this feel!

It actually could be negating the water you are drinking :( I would suggest cutting up citrus fruit and putting that in your water, or even cucumbers, instead of adding tea.

No! it dehydrates you! only count water as water!

I didnt look at more than a few days but i would say you should cut back on desserts. Sometimes staying within calorie limits is not enough, it really matters what those calories are. I know some people say a calorie is a calorie but that really is not the case for most people.

see a specialist. There are huge ranges on what is a normal amount to poop, but anything that is causing you pain is not normal. please get it checked out!

Girl I can totally relate! lol the gym at my college isnt even open during finals week! I have a few things that have helped me though. 1) Even if everything else is happening at weird times, keep a regular eating schedule. (i know it sucks and its hard but its super important, it reduces cravings and stress eating) 2) If…

It was like this with my ex. I gained 45 lbs in that relationship. Eventually I stopped eating 90% of my meals with him which really pissed him off but I had to put myself first and I wasnt making healthy choices when we had meals together.

is there a link for this!?

weight is a really touchy subject for people. Even if she is not usually catty this may bring out that side of her. I dont want to trash talk your friend though and you obviously know her best. Speaking from personal experience, I have been on both sides of that interaction. If she is used to being the fit one than it…

how long do you cycle for ? 1 week? 2 weeks ?

Im trying this starting today ! i have been plateauing for about 3 months. VERY frustrating!

If your cramps are so bad that you literally cant even go to class (this is my sometimes, very bad news ) then maybe skip it. Anything less is just an excuse.

also, went from M top to S, and 36 DD to 34 D

Im 5'1" I was 172 and a size 10. Now im 144 and around a 6, but im not really sure because im not buying new pants till i meet my goal.

depending where it is from that could actually be a really healthy meal! Not all chinese food is bad for you.
