Hi All! So glad to have this space to cheer on others and keep myself accountable. :) I'm 30 and (like so many here) have always struggled with my weight. I lost 24 pounds between March 2013 and November 2013, reaching my all-time low weight of 130 pounds. I felt great and only had 10 more pounds to go to reach my ultimate…

Sigh... to the woman suggesting "just eat meat"... I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you actually don't know why this response is unhelpful, insensitive, and ultimately rude.

Fellow vegetarian here. First of all - can you share with us a bit about why you aren't eating more? Are you not hungry? Are you afraid of eating too much? The previous poster who suggested finding a counselor to sort through any psychological hurdles behind your food struggles is a really good idea. Suggestions I have for…

Just say no to weighing yourself during your period. I won't believe any number on the scale until a few days after my period is over, because it's usually total BS. Also, you could have gained muscle weight in last month. Are your clothes fitting better/too big? Do you feel awesome for working out like a sexy beast? THAT…
