  • Doing great! You look wonderful. Keep at it, the numbers are great to see but how you feel is even better.
  • You are doing well! I can see a difference, specially in the side shot of you. Your stomach looks much smaller and smoother. Keep it up :D
  • Thank you everyone :)
  • Finally got it to work, just don't know how to resize them :S
  • I don't know why my pictures won't work. I even made a photobucket thing...
  • alright I'm lost at how to post pictures... :(
  • I'm kind of shooting for December for my weight loss goal. I have to be in a play and would like to be at my best. But if I don't reach it I am not really worried about any other time. It just happens when it happens.
  • I do my clothes shopping for the most part at Goodwill and Salvation army. And I find some pretty cute things there, the normal stores for clothes seem to either be picked clean of the size I need (didn't matter what size I was in, they never had it), to expensive for me to afford, or just plain ugly. Now that I'm a…
  • About 9 lbs for me, but I'm really just starting. I'm sure it will slow down when I get closer to my goal weight.
  • Everyone's different with how their body will handle that sort of stress, however rest days are recommended. Allowing your body to recover from exercise will help you in the short and long run. I was exercising every day for 30 minutes to over an hour each day. I did that for over two months. Needless to say I'm suffering…
  • Try to remember that different angles and lighting will affect even the best picture. If nothing else look at the picture as more motivation instead of defeating you. I often have those moments where I look at a picture or even just a mirror and don't see what I thought I should be and it does hit my motivation but I then…
  • Slightly confused... Are you asking about the ticker that tracks the amount of weight you have, or when people place goals that they have reached on their pages and the dates that they have done that? The ticker shows up on the page regardless (so I've noticed when visiting others), though I am not sure you can put it on…
  • Send apologies to those I've wronged, send a thanks to all my friends, send my love to my family, find the most calming place I've ever been and have a picnic with my husband and son. Take the time to enjoy the smell of the air and the touch of grass, then be happy to let it pass.
  • Sounds like you may have a bit of a memory problem or your video card is to small/weak. I had to upgrade my video card last time I played the game, it saved me a lot of irritation and ran a lot smoother.
  • No, mainly because there is a pause function in the game, also you can save before you leave that way you can back up to where you were before you left.
  • I have noticed that some doctors just prescribe medicines - not necessarily because it's best for you. Not saying all doctors do that but some do. If you are on a medication that you don't really need it brings in money for the doctor to prescribe it, the pharmacy to fill it, and the insurance to cover it. Sometimes it…
  • Congrats :D
  • Everyone's different in the way that their body handles such defects. Check with your doctor to see what would be best for your body and then go from there. You are going to get lots of different views on the low calorie diets like that and many will say that it's unhealthy and not wise because of starvation mode and other…
  • http://www.choosemyplate.gov/food-groups/fruits_amount_table.html http://www.choosemyplate.gov/food-groups/vegetables_amount_table.html Here are the current USDA recommendations for fruit and veggies. I hope it helps :)
  • There could be any number of reasons. Could be that you aren't eating enough or that you are underestimating and eating too much, if you have a lot of salt in your diet that affects your weight as well. Changing up exercises could help the situation that you are having. Time and patience is the best bet. Do more research…
  • I recently stopped breast feeding. I noticed that my milk supply was more affected by the amount of fluids that I drank, less water = less milk. However I do know that your body will convert your body into the nutrition your baby needs, kind of leeching it out of you (thus the reason so many doctors suggest taking calcium…
  • Good luck. Not only will it be healthier for you but you will find that you may have more money. Preparing food at home is often times WAY cheaper then eating out. If you do go to fast foods after a while of being off of them you may get sick to your stomach - all the grease and salt I think. Congrats on taking a step and…
  • I use to be from the central part now I'm closer to Lee's Summit and Independence. You can add me if you would like.
  • I haven't hit a plateau yet but there have been a few threads here that would help you. Try searching through and looking for TDEE, breaking plateaus, eating more to weigh less, and even some of the success stories. I have read many threads that say that people with smaller amounts of weight to loss take more time to lose…
  • Check out youtube for exercise routines for inside the house. Even one of the 30 Day Shred levels is up for free. If you want to do other things that don't require videos try to add times that your child can participate, make it a game for them. Things like chasing games (things like lifting your child up as you would…

  • Everyone has different ideas of how to eat, some eat several times a day and some only twice. If you do end up being one that doesn't eat regular meals or snacks try to up your calories for the meals. Simple things that are healthy for you but are high in calories so that you can feel comfortable with the idea of you are…
  • Frozen grapes. I love them but don't get to have them very often. When you freeze them it makes for a nice sweet snack that has a bit of a chew or/and pop to it. Fresh strawberries too are great for a sweet tooth if they are in season and they aren't that high in calories. Something creamier and sweet would be like a fruit…
  • That is about like the sandwich that has two grilled cheese sandwiches for buns. It's overkill but people will eat it. I think I'll stick with just a Hawaiian style pizza... or a cheeseburger but not both.
  • http://www.chipotle.com/en-us/menu/nutritional_information/nutritional_information.aspx Here is the nutrition info from Chipotle. Add up the ingredients and add grilled chicken to your meal - could make a recipe or just jot everything down individually. If you can't find something in the database but you know what the…
  • It's a personal preference. Some people don't feel that they need to drink water after a workout others do. It's up to you and your body, if you feel you need to then drink.
