There's an "walking 3.5 uphill" It's pretty accurate :smile: And good luck with the training for the trails! Im sure there are some shorter ones that you can go on to test the waters.

Thanks for the laugh! I just burned a calorie! I also had relief of "emotional stress and a workout for the muscles of the diaphragm, abdomen, back, and shoulders" :laugh:

Like the others have pretty much said, you're not going to get rid of your cravings. You have to learn how to manage them. And try and use them as a motivational tool! Really craving that fun size snickers? no no no, can't have it until after you've walked for half an hour. Want that extra beer? Not until you've stayed…

I never would've thought of salsa! That seems super low cal! Thanks!

Going to be chilly this year for halloween! Might be some fires I need to put out :wink:

Sent her a request! She's going to think we're all super creepy! Woo!!:tongue:

Thanks for posting this! I was around where you started, at 300 pounds, and now I'm at the tail end (thank goodness!!!). And let me tell you if I can do it ANYone can!! Patience is key to anyone being about to lose the weight. I've done it the slower weigh, but the plus side to that is that i will never allow that weight…

I was pretty sneaky and went into Spirit Halloween and tried on the costume I thought that I would like, and I LOVED it, turned a LOT of heads when I came out (in a not too sexual kind of way lol). But I was feeling really cheap and went on ebay and got it for half the price! Did buy some fish nets though while in the…

Geez! No wonder everyone "walks" so often!!! :laugh:

Would you please just come make this for me:flowerforyou:

First off, pat yourself on the back for taking notice NOW and not after you're done with your first year! Then it's just a slippery slope after that! Especially you'll get caught up in exams and partying, so you'll take off those 10 pounds in no time!! Use this app often while in college!! It'll save you a lot of misery…

No, of course you don't have to run! It's just a faster way to burn calories than a lot of exercises. I couldn't run for more than a few minutes before I started this, and I STILL can't run that long so I don't torture myself! If you do an exercise you loath you're going to put it off even more and be very discouraged. The…

First off, you're a woman, so you're going to naturally have a little poof down there lol. There are no easy tricks, obviously, but like others have said try to reduce sugars if you can. I have found the belly really is the last thing to go, even with incorporating ab workouts a good amount. Just keep at it and be sensible!

Well if it vanished into your stomach it's not your fault, sounds like it's a black hole problem :smile: Your body needs the calorie change up, so it's not all bad! Use it as motivation not to do it again soon, knowing how it makes you feel now!

Get it girl!!

YOU CAN NOT QUIT!! If no one else in your house wants to work out, then what about close friends? Or get OUT of the house! Put your headphones in and go for a quick walk :smile: Maybe a gym membership? And anyone who would think rudely of you for wanting to change your life is an idiot and inconsiderate, please dont let…

Positive: That my continued efforts have made others around me more motivated. Neutral: That I couldn't do the quick weight loss like others. That I would have to make small efforts to get where I wanted, but it would take longer. Negative: I use food to be anti social, because I lack self confidence.

^^ I agree. Again, not to be mean by any standards! And I would also look at what kind of dating arena you're in right now. If you're expecting to go to a bar and try and offer the hottest supemodel a drink and she's going to throw herself in your arms because you've lost weight, it sadly won't happen. Not to be…

This is amazing!!! WONDERFUL job! You look so much happier now too! You should be so proud :happy:

Yup! Feels like eveyone knows and I don't lol. Best is when people just plan don't recognize you, hence why they can't comment on your weight loss I suppose. Also, people may notice a lot but they aren't going to say something everytime. Keep it up!

Right there with you, afraid I don't have any advice to give on it per se :cry: . I have people tell me all the time how diferent I look, and I should feel comfortable enough to "stop". I thought I would feel a ton different at this size, but I still always know that I look so different than other girls (ex: like at bars…

^ I agree. Get people you ACTUALLY know to use this app. It's enjoyable to see others around you making better choices and being in the same boat as you. Then when you actually see you they can see the changes that you've worked so hard for. They won't think less of you for using it. My girlfriends and I actually LIKE to…

Think it gets easier mentally to do the exercise, because you start seeing the results. I learned that I'm not a runner, at any weight. But I've walked for 10 miles in one day with no problem, think it gets easier with trial and error to find the exercises that you can do. Then the main thing is to stick with them. I…

That's wonderful! Hope you keep up those NSVs (odd or not!)

And if you're strength training you'll be putting on muscle. And muscle really does weigh more than fat. You may want to try taking measurements too, you'll see results that way for sure if you're hitting the gym that hard and are keeping to your calories. Keep positive, your body can be in shock too and not wanting to let…

I agree with everyone else, you're going to looks amazing! Your love with your fiance will really show! Couple tips is to get your outfit you plan to wear on and have your fiance take some photos of you with a phone. Then make sure that you like the way it looks or if you need to make constant adjustments. Also, talk with…

I'm 5'11", and currently 175, which was my goal for years. Everyone around me says I don't need to lose more, but they think I'm also about 30 pounds lighter than what the scale says... I'm currently a size 12, and would like to get down to about 160 and be around a size 10? You're getting great feedback!

Rain water intake can be measured be a very scientific process that can be done by anyone. In order to measure the quantitative amount you took into your body you must measure the amount that comes OUT of your body. The formula can be complied as: Seconds of urination/seconds of mouth being opened under rain - all other…

Good reasoning to NOT start a diet tomorrow is that you're only going to have MORE to lose if you keep putting it off. Then you'll be less and less likely to EVER start. Think you need to look at what you're trying to say no to that's making you want to start later. If it's food, then you should know that a little bit of…

Dress looks great on you!
