Thanks for all the advice! So I should have mentioned that I tried 1200-1400 cals about 2 years ago and did get down to 120 lbs but all my hair started to fall out. It's finally growing back so I am super weary of eating less than 1500 a day consistently. I did take the advice to try a tape measure so I'll keep on that and…

8 (cuz I can't see the face well)

I wasn't goth enough

intense

I think 1200 is way too low, thats what MFP had me on originally. It's too hard to each the right foods at that low of calories. I put mine at 1600, I still lose a little bit every month but it is slower. However, Im happier and less obsessive over every single bite.

Ants on a log!! (celery with peanut butter and raisins- fun to do fire ants on a log- use craisins) Or what I've named bananas on a plate- rice cakes with a thin layer of peanut butter and sliced banana on top SO YUMMY

Pouring milk means you can eat cereal! Eat something high in fiber or protein. Kelloggs All-Bran is pretty good

Looks good! I'd suggest eating more often (same amount just throughout the day instead of 3 meals) and make sure to start eating early in the morning to get your metabolism going!

Dancing!!!

Make sure you weigh yourself in the morning, after you go to the bathroom and before you eat breakfast.

Ok this response is about to sound really cliche, but someone has to say it. Its ends when you decide to love your body no matter. Stay healthy because that's part of loving your body. But don't worry about the number on the scale. Eat when you are hungry, get all the nutrients you eat (go for variety in fruits/veggies!),…

http://authoritynutrition.com/5-brain-nutrients-in-meat-fish-eggs/ I was vegetarian for 6 years and a nutritionist told me that as long as you get a good variety of good foods (and take supplements for things you know you are short on) you will be fine.

how do you post pics????? Im not stick thin, but I am definitely petite and I got curves!

are you putting a lot of salt on? The other thing is that you may have an allergy to one or more of those foods causing your stomach to inflame.

sexy bod!

I may be incorrect but as far as I know you cant absorb the calories from alcohol out with food. You can absorb the alcohol so you are less hungover with things like bread or my personal fav- cheerios, but the calories count no matter what you eat with your drinks

Thanks so much for all the suggestions! I'm going to try them all over the next week or so. THANK YOU!!!!!!

They make unflavored?!?!?!?!?!?! Where do I find this?

I will have to try it with almond milk. I looked up some recipes and it seems no one likes the vanilla (because it overpowers any fruit it is blended with). Next time I will go for the chocolate!

I do the same kind of thing. My theory is that we never hear of people gaining weight from too much food so maybe fruit sugar doesn't count in the same way. Though I could be wrong...

Are you guys going to be going to a gym? If yes, I highly suggest springing for one day of a personal trainer to walk the two of you through a few different workouts. If not, then come up with a different workout for each day. For example: Day 1- strength training- lots of lifting free weights Day 2- cardio-…

Yes, eat back your exercise calories. There are a lot of messages on this, so just look it up if you want more info

My boyfriend and I joke the same way, but sometimes when a really hot girl comes on screen he'll find a flaw in her. I think in his head he's doing it to make me feel better- finding flaws in those perfect looking women. I bet your husband doesnt think of your butt as having cellulite. I wouldnt worry about it, good men…

I know the feeling. But I have found when Im getting super stressed, getting an hour of intense exercise really helps. Plus finding healthy snacks to chop on during studying helps- plain popcorn, grapes, etc. Also, if I go to a library to study, then I'm less likely to mindless munch.

Yea, I wear long leggings. And then long sleeve under armor type shirt with a sweater over. That way if you get hot, you can take off the sweater and tie it around your waist so it wont get in the way. If your moving fast enough, your legs shouldn't get too cold.

I did a 5k zombie run; I will say it motivated me to get in shape really really well.

hey, i know this is several months later from the post, but i just got on Metformin for PCOS and I have been having super bad nightmares and feel just awful. And I havent been able to stomach food before noon (which sucks, cuz Im a breakfast person). I take it at night with my dinner around 7pm. It's been about 3 weeks; I…

I'm just under 5'2" but people never notice until they stand right next to me. It's all in how you handle yourself- stand upright, shoulders back, chin-up, and assert yourself when you talk. I want to work in law enforcement and every now and then someone tells me I'm too small. Well I met an officer who's even shorter…

You're friend probably experienced her weight loss due to the placebo effect as many people who take diet pills do. The problem is, since you're already skeptical, most likely no diet pill will work for you.

If you used to drink a lot of sodas, then it could be a caffeine headache. One way to combat this is to drink tea or black coffee (caffeine itself isn't bad for you, it's all the other bad stuff that's typically in a drink with caffeine.)
