It wasn't one big, miraculous moment for me- it was the culmination of about four months of feeling miserable and berating myself for getting to the size I was before starting to make little changes step by step. It took a while for me to get my head in gear; I had to stop the negative self-talk and start telling myself…

drink a TON of water. it gets easier with time. just keep chugging and you'll notice a difference, promise.

as far as drinking all that water, get a water bottle you like- that you don't mind being seen drinking from ALL. THE. TIME. because If you like your water bottle, you're more likely to drink from it. Be practical when picking it out too- there's all kinds- a giant 1-liter nalgene ( like I have), the camelbak better bottle…

I finally became happy with the person I am and I wanted the outside to reflect the inside. I was tired of being the biggest out of all my friends, of not being able to buy the clothes that I want. I started thinking about who I would like to one day marry (I'm only 21) and the man I picture is healthy, active, and- of…

store onions in the fridge and it'll be so much better

red grapes are so sweet. just let your body and your taste buds get acclimated to healthier, natural food, and they will taste soooo sweet after a while.

I'm in college too, I'm a senior, and it definitely is hard managing weight in college! just find a friend or two and make a date to go to the gym once or twice a week with them and it'll become a fun thing that you just do. As far as what I'm doing, I just go to the gym every day and eat lots of veggies, protein, and…

Congrats on coming back to the site! please realize that you've come a lot further than the people who don't know what they aren't doing- you know what you need to do and are doing it- that's not nothing! :D I too used the site regularly for a while, then during winter break (I'm a full time student) I got out of the habit…

I'm overweight too but athletic-ish (I can run 2 miles, slowly, and not be dying by the end) and I LOVE Zumba. Nobody cares what anyone else is doing once the class starts, but if you're a little self-concsious, like me, then just dance in the back. I'm not going to lie- the first class is difficult just because it is fast…

I too have had this problem since I started consciously losing weight about a month ago. I asked my Dad, who is a paramedic and a nurse, and he said that, because estrogen and testosterone (both men and women have some levels of both hormones) are fat soluble hormones and I am burning fat, the hormones get released and…

I got my running shoes at ****'s Sporting goods- they're Asics and were on sale for $50-ish. If you want shoes and input from knowledgable people, I would find a good ol' mom-and-pop running shop near you- there's one near me and, once I lose enough to start training for 5k and eventually half and full marathons, I'll…

try any of the Zumba albums, even if you're on the elliptical or whatever- the songs have a steady, quick tempo that I tend to move my feet to automatically. Also, when I do my mile or two on the elliptical, I listen to "My Body" by Young the Giant on repeat, it is perfect for completing a mile in ten minutes if you just…

your body might be intolerant of certain foods you're eating. if you can, go see a nutritionist and they'll be able to help figure out what it is that isn't working in your system. if you can't go to a nutritionist, try cutting one thing out like steak or eggs or whatever for fourteen days at a time and see which one…
