don't care to much for calories, hun. Care about NUTRIENTS! eat as clean as you can, exercise, learn to love and appreciate your body first. Weight loss will take care of itself afterwards.

Hopping on the treadmill after 4 month of not running and knock it of for 30 minutes intervalls. I am soooo proud of my body and especially on my (post-surgery) knee for being able to do this just like that. Looks like I am getting fitter every day and I loooove it :)

She exercises and tries to stay healthy???? Who else thinks she tells BS???? Although her doc sees no psychiatric problems, I see a ton (noticed the pun here? hehe)

I already got my bike ride in today and I will do Bikram Yoga in the afternoon. NSV for today is PERSISTENCE in my effort to stay fit and healthy :)

Don´t worry to much about it, honey. Sure, boxed cereal isn´t great nutritionwise, but toxic? I don´t know. Sounds a bit dramatic to me. Usually I avoid boxed cereal but I looooove my breakfast grains. I use Quinoa, Barley and Oatmeal on a regular base. And on a sidenote: I hope you are not too discouraged by this article…

And have you ever noticed that the women obviously always wear some sort of spanx to make their silhouttes appear perfect and none of the men have to do that? I smell sexism, fellows!

I would suggest to alternate between both. One day swimming, next day biking and so on. But in the end: do what is more enjoyable for you and stick with it. Forever. :)

Wow, that is sooo disrespectful! I am really astound of your assumptions here. Without EVER talking to her you know exactly what is best for her, her NOT EVEN CONCEIVED child and all the other screwed up people out there. You are also able to judge her stability and diagnose her with a psychosis. Respect, dude!

She is getting help for her ED currently. While I definititely appreciate your concern for the unborn child, let me point something out real quick: It is her effing right to want to be a parent and not your job to judge her. Raising a child is not a perogative of the perfectly perfect people (if there are any). She is…

Naaaa, I try to stay healthy and make good choices but sometimes I pig out. This is not tied to a specific day but more an occasion like dinner with friends. If I made some not so healthy choices I try to make up for it by working out harder and cutting back on calories the next day.

bump :)

You are very welcome, honey :flowerforyou:

I am currently preparing for pregnancy, too. My nutritionist advised me to stay active and only eat 300 cals more a day. You can apparently do all the things you did before the pregnancy but in moderation of course. She also made it very clear that pregnancy is not the time to increase physical activity. :)

It will definitely be worth buying a bike! I have no car, so I bike literally everywhere and I love it! It adds 3 hours of biking to my exercise routine every week :)

bump for later, need some advice in that department, too :)

First of all, I am very sorry you have to go through all of this stress! What strikes me the most reading your posts here is your anxiety of losing control and your focus on your body solely. I think that it might be helpful to you to talk to somebody who can help you with that. Obsessive thoughts of any kind and the urge…

It's such a relief to find out, that others are struggeling with this issue as well! I am constantly over my carbs and sugar, sometimes even over my fat. My protein is way to low according to MFP It is harder for me to stay in my calorie range for the day ( I have no idea why!!!). Maybe it is just the transition and it…

Thanks, Holly! That sounds really delicious! :)

First of all: Welcome to the club! :) We´re glad to have you amongst us for this journey. And now to the "unclean" foods. I have them once in a while and I do not feel bad about it. I try to eat clean 80-90% of the time and feel very good with that. It is a transition and personally I can't go from 0-100 instantly. And…

I am not quite sure what is going on there with your sis, but honestly, she seems to be very insecure and anxious when she constantly has to make sure to put you down. Obviously, girl, you got some mojo going on and she is pretty jealous :) Have you tried to react in the opposite way than she would expect? She wants…

I try to eat the clean the majority of the time. Once you got into it, it definitely gets easier. Sure, it needs a bit of planning ahead, but I also feel that I save money. And it is really exciting to try new things and have that "oh, I just made that from scratch" feeling while cooking. Good luck on your journey, it will…
