wow you look good! this definetly motivates me :) how much did you weigh when you started? you didnt look too bad. i started at 204 (scale at planned parenthood) and currently am at 196 and started 3 weeks ago. I got kinda sad when i saw the scale and gained a pound. plz tell me more of your secrets and your workout…

yea i do...and i dont buy food at my house, my mom does so she pretty much controls the food. she cooks and she runs a day care so sometimes there isnt food to eat so i try to grab a quick bite on the go. my mom doesnt really make healthy foods. and she does have a point when she says healthy foods cost more. i cant afford…

i will try this before working out!
-
ok im getting now all your opinions. make it into more of a habit, rest my body for 2 days at the most, do something else when feeling lazy. now another question for you all: what should i eat??? someone brought up about my food diary and i like the honesty! i live with my mom im 20 yrs old and she makes some good mexican…
-
i totally agree! its the mental demons! nice idea on ''if you dont feel like working out'' another question, if i go walk, how do i know how many calories ive burned?
-

-
i like what youre saying. i cant right now im too tired i have class in the am...but i get what youre saying. my lazy *kitten* for sure is going to the gym tomorrow. i cant be putting off. i guess i can always take the weekend off from working out
-

-
i been going almost everyday for about 3 weeks. i lost some and then i gained some back. honestly gaining a few pounds discourages me...what to do?
-
thanks much! you gave me more motivation! well i want to go back to my size 11s the most! idk what waist that is but i wear like the 2nd to big waist size at the buckle which is waist 34 :( but youre right! it will take time i just gotta keep working at it!
-
thanks that helps so i shouldnt get my hopes up right now. just gotta keep doing what im doing and hopefully see results at the end of this month. i really want to lose 50 pounds by the end of the summer or something. i know this takes time but im going thru it
-
hey i started last thursday and i want to lose 50 pounds as well! i want to get back to the way i was in high school! so hmu
-
ok i didnt really understand what the guy above you meant, but what youre saying is easier to understand. i feel like after these 5 days of watching what i eat, my body is getting used to it. im not eating fast food or large portions of food and drinking lots of pop. so youre right when you say you can live off 1200…
-
well everyone i just changed some of my goals. i got a new calorie intake i believe its about 1270 a day because i plan to excersize about 5 times a week ( i go to college so that kinda gets in the way). but since im paying for the anytime fitness membership i plan to use it as much as i can and reach my goals. you guys…
-
i want to lose 2 pounds a week. well i havent reached 500 calories yet! so far its like 220-250 calories i burn...but i do eat some of those calories back. can you explain more what the deficit means?
-
wow thats ****ed up. guys like that are jerks and dont deserve your love. my bf may call me chubby sometimes and i call him fat cat as well, but we are not messed up to each other. were currently starting MFP and excersize so you need a man that will support you. im 20 as well. find yourself a REAL man! no jerks that didnt…
-
so far i been doing a decently. i think its just finding foods to eat around the house since my mom mainly cooks mexican food which is fatty and greasy. i have some of the chocolates ive only eaten 1 so far. i only like the dark chocolate ones. i think that if i dont excersize ill feel hungrier. but when i do excerzise and…
-
so youre saying 1200 calories is bad for me?
-
i absolutely love those kinds of cats! what kind of cat is it? love it!
-
im starting to feel fine with the 1200 calories. usually after working out which is about after 830 pm cuz of work, i eat a bowl of cereal, sometimes i add a granola bar with it and drink some water. i dont feel ''low on energy''. its just at first i still felt hungry. i think im getting used to eating less cuz i would eat…
-
wow good job on losing weight! in a way, i think my body is getting used to it. i used to eat no breakfast a lot of fast food, overfill my plates, drink hardly any water. i go to school so i try to get in a bowl of cereal at least for breakfast. and ya ive been learning how many calories are in a certain item at a certain…
-
yes im eating some or most of my excersize calories. thats what im supposed to do, right? because you need some of those calories back that your body loses. since i just started, im on the eliptical for 2 miles at the gym. i will increase my distance this week. boneless chicken with rice and veggies sound good! so is this…
-
hmm well its kinda hard at my house cuz my mom cooks a lot of homemade mexican food food and some of its greasy and fatty...and when i drink water i feel like that makes me hungrier :/ but im still trying!
-
so what does this mean? as time goes by you try to intake what youre supposed to instead of figuring out how to be under your intake? im not used to eating like this...but i noticed now that i have to keep it at or under 1200 calories my meals and portions are smaller. i ate 2 scrambled eggs this morning with a peice of…
-
well i havent weighed myself. im on day 4. ill prolly weigh myself next week or so. this is really helpful cuz i do want to get used to it. but it sucks being hungry at the end of the day!
-
wow thats really good! i been doing so far for the past 2 days 2 miles on the elliptical and working on my arms. so far i feel sore in my arms, shoulders, belly, calfs, and a little on thighs/butt, so im guessing somethings working
-
so you do get used to it is what youre saying? well i hope my body does adjust cuz i didnt realise that i ate 2000+ calories a day :( but hopefully this is worth it. i really want to lose 50 pounds. 3 yrs ago in high school when i met my bf i was about 150 i did cross country and track. 3 yrs later im 204 :'( but he gained…
