True, it might not always work for everyone but thats why we aren't all the same lol. Its all about finding what works for you. :)

Well duh, you'd be very foolish to think your metabolism ever stops. lol

I understand that it doesn't "stop" if I don't eat lol, your metabolism never really stops anyways. I just like to help ensure my metabolism is keeping a steady pace. I have done some research and have also seen and know of many, many success stories of men and women who use the same methods of eating 5 to 6 small…

Yes I did. What's your point???

Thanks but no thanks, I enjoy reading them. Even if I don't always agree with what I find in them, I enjoy reading them for fun.

This is exactly my point. That just because we burn said amount of calories from standing doesn't mean we should count those calories burned, or eat them back. This was exactly my point, perhaps I stated it a little losely but however, this is what I was trying to get at lol.

Yes I do understand that! I'm more saying that I don't know if I really believe that you can burn a significant amount of calories by standing. My job requires me to stand for 6-8 hours a day but I don't think I'd log that I burned 300-500 calories each day from standing at my job.

haha, your too funny. And I know your right. I swear I know I have to stop checking for results all the time but it really gets hard some days. I need to learn patience. lol.

I pay 26 dollars a month on a gym membership and I look at it as even if I put together that 26 or even 40 dollars a month for twelve months I still won't have enough money to buy everything the gym offers me.

I've seen this same diet and it wasn't called the GM diet. But I know two girls who did this and claim they lost around 10-15 pounds doing so.

HECK NO!!! Eat dinner, keep it small and clean and healthy. You shouldn't really skip a meal especially if your body is telling you your hungry. My opinon its about making a healthy lifestyle not a diet and you shouldn't go hungry, it would do your body more harm to go hungry then to eat something small and healthy and…

ok?

Shopping Spree!!!! :p

I am trying to keep my protien higher but I don't think so high to as where I need protien suppliments but they are very helpful. I'm just trying to slim down and tone up. lol.

Thanks, but I'm not looking for someone to tell me what I should do. Just what you do and what works for you. I'm just trying to see what everyone else does to see if I can take from any of it to tweak my lifestyle to better help my weight loss. Good luck with all your goals :)

I take in at least 1500 calories a day and sometimes 1800

Amen sister! I love starbucks and I love Peppermint they are the best and perfect combo.

Any kind of peppermint tea. I think peppermint compliments tea very well.

It has me enter my height. They all do. They give my height as an option in a lot of them as well when they don't allow you to type in your height but rather select it from a drop down menu.

ok?

Feeling AMAZING and a shopping spree. I have a closet full of clothes that are 1-2 years old and a lot doesn't fit because of my weight gain so I promised myself that I will not buy any new clothes until I reach my goal. (unless something is needed of course) so that way I do not get down and depressed when shopping during…

I AM SO DOWN!! I do the same thing. I will get easily down about no progress or very little progress is JUST TWO DAYS I'm crazy I know. lol. GREAT idea!

I am only 4'9 and according to the BMI I should weight between 88 and 111 and I feel that is WAY TOO LOW for me. I have a larger bon structure and I have been at my goal weight before of 125 pounds and LOVED it so I am aiming to get back to that weight. :)

Yeah some things have been on my mind but Its nothing more then normal. I am easily stressed.

I have been thinking that. I have been slacking on the gym so I did think thatbmight be why.

No, some people just like it that way I perfer the water ice cold. :p

You are 10000% right. I know he isn't, and that is why I hope that once I get furtur in my goals and I get more progress then he sees that it is possible and gets more motivated. lol

You got it sister :P
