I am vegan, my husband isn't. We live in peace ;) Edit: Sorry half my reply got deleted on my phone 1. I am for ethnical reasons and the environment 2. it is easy for me. I was a vegetarian for a really long time and was never a big meat or fish eater. I loved yogurt and cheese though. Now I make my own yogurt and when I…

I always think of this picture when someone says humans have canine teeth used to tear meat. I honestly couldn't chase a cow and then rip it apart with my teeth.

You have to do what is right for you. Would I prefer that everyone has the same believes as I do, of course, but don't we all?! I hope that you'll feel better soon.

Lavelle, I hardly post (as you can see) in the forum, but as a vegan I would think it a shame for you to giving up a plant based lifestyle (no judging though) Have you checked your vitamin d? is your b12 low? B12 is just something you'll have to supplement, it is not bad to do so. And don't forget that even omnivores and…

Tagging along for all the great information

Thank you. I exchanged mine and am more than happy with it since then

I agree with what jimmmer said. There is really nothing wrong with soy. Just remember that no matter what you eat, if you eat too much of it, it can be bad for you. I just buy non gmo soy products :)

I use Plantfusion vanilla and mix it with almond milk and banana or in my smoothie and really like it.

A bottle of seltzer water cost here between $0.57 and $3.00 depending which one you buy. A gas tank for about 60 bottles costs between $3.00 and $15, first time purchase $29. You can refill the gas tank with dry ice yourself if you feel comfortable and secure enough to do it right (see YouTube). I like my water with a lot…

They are my go to pasta :) I really love them, but haven't found them as zero calories, just 15 or 20 per serving :) Definitely have to keep my eyes open for yours though :)

Couldn't agree more. And I am a vegan solely for ethical reasons and don't think that means I am not paying attention to what I am eating and will be fat - almost all my vegan friends who chose to be vegan for ethical reasons are fit and far from being fat - and being vegan doesn't stop at what you eat and don't eat. And…

I supplement Vitamin B12 and I know my vitamin D was a little bit low but that's it. If you have any further questions just let me know.

I try to plan out my meals ahead so I know what I will be eating during the day and now instead of eating in between I start working out (at home or the gym) or I drink a glass of water. What helps me too is to eat things that make me feel being full instead of drinking a hot/cold chocolate, eat ice cream or chocolate (I…

that is amazing and I think over 20 cm is a lot :) congratulations :)

I would love that too, because I only get sometimes an email notification. I don't get notifications if some friends of mine post on my wall so I have to scroll all the way down each day to make sure I see if they replied and it doesn't look like I refuse to answer to questions etc EDIT: I think this thread should be…

Conratulations on such an amazing transformation, you look amazing :)

I did go to my exercises and added "Ripped in 30 - Jillian Michaels" (I am doing that one :) ) under cardiovascular. To log the calories burned I use my HRM

You really look amazing and congratulations on such a big weight loss! You have done fantastic and I am sure those last 20 pounds will be gone before you know it. And you are definitely inspiring! Thank you for sharing your pictures with us! :)

amazing transformation and you look great :)

I have bad knees too but no problems with the workout yet (Ripped in 30) which includes a lot of squats etc BUT I don't know why squats work for me, walking up the stairs is sometimes no fun for me so I don't know. I would look at the videos on youtube too and try some of the moves and if you can feel like it is ok for…

I was so sure I did it again. I thought I might smell bad and that's why I always kill threads, but since I live not close to anybody I guess it must be something different :D

if you have space in it a %20% will automatically be added in the link and that has to be removed again. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/262875-need-help-adding-pictures-look-here-pic-heavy edit now that I can see the pictures too :) Really an amazing result! :) You did great.

I am pretty sure the thread will be dead now, since I posted something, happens to me all the time, so here we go .......

this :) I bought Quinoa but never knew what is was before I have read about it online and now I have it in my kitchen not knowing what to cook, because the recipes I found online were nothing for me, but the pilaf sounds delicious since I am a vegetarian :)

^ this :) Congratulations on the loss and being healthy :)

Congratulations!!! You look really amazing :)

congrats on winning and of course on losing the weight and lowering your body fat and I don't think what you wrote sounded crazy at all :)

that was really interesting, thanks for sharing. so now I know it is good that I always have an incline when I am on the treadmill.

Since I know you for a while now I will kick your butt when I notice that you fall of the wagon :) don't get mad at me though I will try to make it a soft and nice kick :)

stupid question, planks like in the video or with arms straightened out?
