I also walk during my lunch breaks I leave straight from my office so that I can get a full hour in. I just eat my lunch at my desk and work at the same time so I don't have to use that as my lunch hour. I usually get a little over 3 miles in. I try to do leg lifts under my desk when I remember. Another thing I do in the…

"def my fave... "bradley & friends", right? album still gives me goosebumps and makes me sad." Absolutely, it is definately the best, and I am a huge Sublime fan :)

LOVE the accoustic album the most :) Some of my absolute faves over all though are bad fish, 5446 ball and chain, and Pool Shark

I absolutely love the skinny girl margaritas! Thats all I have tried so far but I really like them. They don't have that sickeningly sweet taste that other margaritas have. I would recommend them blended though because I thought it was a little too strong tasting when I had it on the rocks. As for sodium content I am not…

Hello. I have 10 year old identical G/G twins and a 3 year old daughter. I gained a ton of weight being pregnant with my twins and it kept on going from there! :) Now 10 years later I am finally doing something about it lol!

Cows milk is for baby cows. :wink: I use Silk Organic Soy Milk (no GMO's) in my cereal every morning or once in a while when I want something sweet I use Vanilla Almond Milk.

Absolutely positively HATE pushups! I can only do about 5 and thats doing cheater push-ups (on knees)! Man they make me feel like such a loser lol!!

I think of all the times I gave up before and how long it took me to get back on track. I also don't want to gain all the weight back that I have worked so hard to lose. Another thing I do is look at catalogs with cute skinny models wearing cute clothes and visualize myself being able to wear those cute clothes, that helps…

Hi this is something I have struggled with as well. I have had some negative experiences from telling people about my decision to be vegan and so it has caused me to shy away from telling people. I tend to try and stay on the down low about it as much as possible and like other posters have mentioned either eat before hand…

Great job! You look amazing! :)

A fitbit! That is what I am trying to save an extra $100 for at the moment :)

Great job!!

Wow thank you all for your wonderful responses! I workout at home and take walks outside so I'm not getting those gym bugs (thank goodness)I do try to wash my hands all the time too but, I think its is probably a combination of things definately the season changing. I do get some seasonal allergies so that is probably a…

I swear they do it just to annoy Vegans, lol! Daiya does not contain casein by the way if you are looking for a brand that doesn't have it :)

Ever since I became Vegan about 4 months ago I have been reading books on the topic non stop! I really just want to know all that I can know about the subject especially since all of my family and friends are omni's I really want to have some research to back up my choices to be Vegan when people try to bring up an…

I do love a good margarita on the rocks once in a while when I am indulging or a beer, but mostly I will stick to Grey Goose, Club Soda, and Lime, its low cal and yummy! I don't drink very often especially now that I am trying to lose weight but once in a while you have to have a few after a busy week :)

Wow great job!! You look amazing ;)

Yep! This is what helps me get out of bed in the morning, the anticipation of what the scale is going to tell me! :happy:

$800 on a Sea Monkeys Penny slot at the Venetian in Las Vegas, it was my honeymoon so that made it even better :)

Best decision I have ever made. My advice is that you do tons of research. Read books, online articles, etc. Veganism makes so much sense for so many reasons. My original reasons for being Vegan were because of health reasons, and then after diving into more research I am now doing it moslty for ethical and environmental…

I also was super thin all my life until my early 20's. I was actually underweight! In high school I was 5' 10" and between 115-125 pounds. I remember towards my second year of college when I hit 130 I was in complete shock and thought I was soooo fat lol! After I had my twins at 21 I started putting on weight and it kept…

I am not sure about the difference between losing alot or a little but I lost 38 pounds in 6 weeks. Gained it all back in a month and a half and then some and was MISERABLE the entire time I was on the diet! Worst experience of my life, I will never do it again however I do know someone who sweasr by it and think its the…

*Bumping* In hopes of some more responses :)

It is a great show, the book is also really good and I would also recommend "The China Study" if you are into reading and want to do some more research on the subject. Very good info. I have been working on my veganism since February of this year and the show just reaffirmed everything that I had already believed about an…

I just want to say I am going through the EXACT same thing as you right now. I was losing a ton of weight in the beginning (2.5-3.5 pounds per week) and ever since right before I hit my 3 month mark. The weight loss stopped dead in its tracks. I will lose a 1/2 a pound here and there and then gain it back a day later. It…

I love Kraft Zesty Italian Reduced Fat. It is low in calories and really good, and I am kind of a salad dressing snob :)

Congratulations, what an inspiration you are!!! You look fantastic!!!!

Awww! Tears and goose bumps! What a cute story, thank you for sharing it that totally made my day :)

Girl I am right there with you! I hate waking up early for work but Im not going to lie sometime the excitement of getting up and hopping on the scale is the only thing that gets me out of bed in the morning lol! I am working so hard and I just want to see the results of that hard work and I can't wait. I have told myself…

Don't give up! You have come so far already. 70 pounds is amazing and inspiring to me as I am trying to lose over 100! Try purchasing or checking out a new recipe book and try new things. There are hundreds of great healthy recipe books for quick and easy meals that might inspire you to keep eating healthy. Also try adding…
