And when I say "tea" I'm mainly referring to black tea. Herbal tea is not caffeinated.

The thing about coffees, teas, sodas, etc...they contain caffeine and other additives (even the "decaf" has caffeine), and caffeine can dehydrate you. There is a point in time where too much water is officially too much water! Cells denature and things kind of turn into that senator off of X-Men where he turned into a…

Mine is pretty standard, mainly because I am lazy in the mornings. All my breakfasts are 250-300 cals. Coffee with creamer is a must and the only thing that does not waiver in my routine. Half a cup of greek yogurt, a drizzle of honey, quarter cup of dry old fashioned oats, and either some frozen blueberries or some…

I'm 5'8" with a goal of 170. That seems high, but I'd love to be around there. I am 197 right now. You can add me if you'd like :)

Hubby is currently attending OSU, so we're Beavers. But my heart will always be a Hustlin' Owl--Oregon Institute of Technology all the way!

I have a difficult time too with emotional eating. And having sick babes on top of it (not to mention your hubby) just makes things worse! I find myself emotionally eating as "something to do" especially after my boys fall asleep. It's difficult not to resort to a trip to the fridge or cabinet to search for munchies. Try…

Grapes are also a good source of potassium! In response to agentscully51: True, the body is smart. For example, the human body can get hydration from fruits and veggies that you eat--up to 20% of your water. However, especially since we are all basically working out pretty hard to loose weight (thus sweating), and some of…

Yogurt, coffee, and dried apricots are where I'm getting my sources of potassium from. I also go off this web page for a quick, easy source: http://www.vaughns-1-pagers.com/food/potassium-foods.htm Also, in response to the water--how you're only supposed to drink when you're thirsty--that is wrong. If your body is telling…

Physically--a guy with broad shoulders will always catch my eye, pair that with muscular arms and well proportioned hands, well...yeah, my engine is running. Mentally--definitely a guy with a brain and sense of humor! In other words, my husband. Damn, I hit the jack pot!

I do the same...I log it as circuit training, and I leave out the cool down session minutes.

Isn't it such an awesome feeling!? Good job!

No matter your body structure--if you're naturally thin or naturally inclined to gain weight such as myself--it's important to be healthy. Eating the right foods and exercising is what it is all about. I, personally, like the looks of the old movie stars, but I also know that is more what my body type would be if I hadn't…

I don't have any kitties right now, but I used to have two: Danger--black and white furball who was my best friend growing up(passed away at 19 years old from old age, just a few months before I had my second son) and Bucky--a big, black, burly beast who was a birthday present from my husband before we were married, he was…

The last time I went in to see my lady doctor was right after having my son. She mentioned that one of her patients was about the same start weight as me, and in 6 weeks, due to nursing, had lost around 30lbs. With my previous son, I knew my body didn't work like that, and I told her that I gained weight during nursing.…

Radiation's the way to go :D Thanks for the answers!

Anybody?? According to the ones I record under, I supposedly burn around 350-400cals...that just doesn't seem right, almost too high.

Hi Jamie! I'm Ana :) I'm 27 and looking to loose around 30-40lbs this year! I'm also looking for more support as I head down this road. It's kind of overwhelming and daunting to look at those numbers, but boy are we worth it!
-
This is my second time here too! I need to stay consistent by coming here and tracking every day! I have about 30lbs to get to my first goal of 170.
-
I am 5'8.5"...a pretty large frame (broad shoulders and barrel chest), and my goal is to be around 170. I'm 199 right now.

Yes! I am a SAHM of two little dudes ages 4 years and 15 months. I am in dire need of people to remind me to check in and stay on track. If anyone wants to yell at me, please add me as a friend! :)

I'm taking my little dudes out on a walk for hot chocolate for them and coffee for me!

I have finally figured out a plan that works for me. My hubs is a college student, so he's rarely home, so I go to him. On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, I meet him at the campus gym, give him the lil dudes and work as hard as I can for half an hour to an hour...depending on if I have dinner ready at home or not. During…

Hi Ladies! I have two little dudes (ages 4 and 1) and I want to loose at least 20lbs by next June! This site is pretty darn awesome :)
