  • Feel free to add me if you like. My rule is once my head hits the pillow today is over. I don't carry the negative into the next day and beat myself up over it I start fresh!!! You are human you slipped, kick yourself in the pants right now and then forget about it and move on and make today be the best day ever!!!
  • Why is your diary closed now?
  • Find a new boyfriend...sorry girl but that's no way to treat a woman and if his family abuses you like that too you are just setting yourself up for a lifetime of unhappiness. On another note, just ignore the haters...they will always be there, keep doing what you are doing and doing it for you and no one else!!!
  • You don't have to count because you wont overeat if you eat 5-6 smaller meals in correct portions and combinations. Have you tried it it works :)
  • There is F, FF, and FFF before you drop down to DDD. I've gone from 42H to 36F and the F is tight, but G's are too big. Waiting for an FFF to come in to see if it will work.
  • I completely disagree with you. When you eat clean you don't have to calorie count at all, it's all about balance and eating smaller meals more often. I eat way more now than I did counting calories or points, I am satisfied for longer and don't crave anything as long as I stay on plan. The best book that is very well…
  • Dairy is often limited or not consumed at all. Same with wheat. It's all a decision on what kind of results you want. I personally am very goal driven and could care less about giving up processed foods to reach my goal. You may not be the same way, it's all about finding a balance that works for you if you want to succeed…
  • Google or you tube!!!
  • I plan my meals on here a day ahead so I have a target to aim for that is right on track. I often modify as I go but I find having a blueprint really helps.
  • I have to disagree with you on that. She can get into lifting and modify her diet and re-shape her body if that's what she desires. She will most likely go up in weight but if she can get past the numbers and learn to love a shapely muscular body she may find the satisfaction she seeks.
  • Can you afford to hire a trainer? It really makes a huge difference in how you can change the shape of your body. I started with one in January and he has made the biggest difference in my life and how I feel about my body and how it is changing. If not I recommend googling New Rules of Lifting for Women and working that…
  • I find that working the muscles again doing different exercises to be the best form of relief for the soreness. Are you giving yourself one day off a week for recovery and re-building...this is a definite must as overtraining will just lead to injury sooner or later.
  • I work with a trainer. I was doing the same thing as you before I started working with him. What I learned is that you have to build core strength first then go to the harder stuff. Check out google or you tube for beginner core moves and get yourself a stability ball if hiring a trainer is out of the question for you.…
  • I thought the same thing...someone needs attention......but then I thought more....people in he op's shape can have body issues just like those of us that would love to have her body. We all have things we are not happy with on our body. Who are we to judge her for looking the way we would kill to look and not being happy…
  • Nothing refined, processed or pre-packaged. Protein, whole grain carbs, fruits and vegetables. Just google clean eating and you will find a ton of information on it. It makes a huge difference in losing weight and re-shaping your body. I personally cannot succeed at both without it.
  • I see a slight difference. If you really want to see your hard work pay off I recommend dialing in your diet. Ditch the processed pre-packaged foods and go for eating clean. Combined with exercise that will get you noticable results faster than you ever imagined.
  • I am an f and they don't work for me. I stick with Ulla, not pretty but so functional!!!
  • Hire yourself a trainer...best motivator ever!!!
  • Hire a trainer start lifting weights and make sure you are eating clean and you will see the results you are looking for in changes in your body shape, but you may see the scale go up instead of down due to the changes. You have to decide if you want the shape or your body to change or the numbers to go down. Where you are…
  • You really don't need to worry about sugar as it is a part of carbs. Focus more on making sure you are staying in your carb range. From what you posted you are getting the sugar from natural sources so again that is not a worry, if it was all from processed sources then you have a problem. To hit your calories with low…
  • My trainer started me very simply with no complicated methods whatsoever. 1 mile on the treadmill then go faster as I felt comfortable and try and beat my time weekly. My first mile was 18 minutes 2 months ago. I now do a 10 minute mile. He has now bumped me up to 3 miles and I did that in 33 minutes this week and will…
  • You might want to experiment with not eating back exercise calories and see how your body responds. Your diet looks pretty good, you just may be eating too much for your body. It's about finding what your body responds to not always what everyone else says will work.
  • Great job!!!
  • I really wanted to get a tattoo to show my journey in some way but since my husband absolutely hates tattoo's on women I'm thinking he will be buying me some jewelry!!! Otherwise the main thing I plan to do it tell the world and share and help as many people succeed too as I possibly can!!!
  • I have PCOS too. I need to eat small meals every 3 hours in order to feel full. Each meal must contain protein, a fruit or veggie and 3 out of 6 meals need to have a low gi carb. This helps me feel full all the time. In order to succeed at weightloss with PCOS you need to do too things, keep your carbs under 100 grams per…

  • It's not the amount of calories or even the exercise that is the problem it's what you are eating. I looked at your diary for a couple of days and didn't see many vegetables, fruits, lean protein or whole grains. You might want to try "cleaner" eating and see what it does for your weightloss. I plateau whenever I introduce…
  • Hire a trainer!!! He/she will ensure you lift and workout with proper form and also encourage you and get you to push you limits. Hiring one was the best thing I've ever done for myself.
  • Save your money and just stick with on specific scale at the gym. As long as you weigh in on the same scale every time it doesn't matter if it's a bit out it will still show losses or gains the same. I think getting one in your dorm room will just have the negative effect of making you scale obsessed.
  • Calories aren't really the big deal it's eating more frequent smaller meals more often and what you eat when. Try and eat every 2-3 hours. Make sure you eat a protein selection every time you eat and try cut sodium and processed foods and stick to healthy grains. This should help you feel fuller for longer and see better…
