lol! I feel u...Its a mental thing. You feel like you wasted all the hard work you do. But keep in mind our bodies need a 'break' and its ok to manage your meals and still eat things you like. This is a lifestyle change and not just a 'diet'. In 'real life' we will have work luncheons, banquets, bday parties, etc and we…

Hey- I would suggest you checkout these Youtube posts and learn about TDEE and BMR. From your diary, it doesnt appear you are eating enough and not eating very balanced. I would up your protein as well if possible and green foods some too. If you are working out, be sure to incorporate weight training; go lite to tone up…

Give it time...when u make changes like increasing your cals, you may see an increase before decrease. If you are lifting weights, I wouldnt get caught up on scale, But make sure to look at body fat % and also measure your inches and document on MFP. Checkout this great video blogs about Eatng more to weigh less:…

Hey, Thanks for posting this...I've been there and met w/ a nutritionist to see what I was doing wrong once I hit my plateau..... What I learned was 1. Vary your workouts and include light weight trainining. If you do the same workouts 24/7, your body learns it and doesnt have to work as hard to burn calories; So maybe do…

Often they are truly feeling bad about themselves and hate their lives and thats why they have to tear u down to feel taller and better about themselves! uugh! I'm sorry.

GO GIRL!!!!!! HAPPY JOURNEY

LOL! OMG I fall off sometimes on the weekend, only because I get out of my 'work mode ' routine. Im a Realtor so I am constantly packing my cooler, meeting clients, on calls, in houses, so I am too busy to cheat and only have time to eat what is with me. I do perfect! Workout a million times, etc :) The weekend comes and…

I got the Timex HRm but was sooo off. It didnt ask me to input my gender or height, etc. I heard they are more geared towards men. So took back and got the Polar brand (which is what I went to get and got off track)lol! I believe its model FT4. Love it and wayyy more accurate! I wore during my salsa class to get reading…

I likes and agree. My nutritionist said ok, but at the end of the day, its all about personal preferences. I totally fell off today, but was traveling and didnt have my cooler of food w/me. I usually just do maybe a cheat meal/week and it does help me stay focused all week. sometimes my cheat 'meal' is my fav ice cream…

bump stomach is mainly kitchen....watch the food! Also, I wear a body wrap when I work out and sit in sauna to get rid of some of the water. But you can work your abs all day, but if the fat is there, those sexy abs will be underneath. Focus on healthy foods veggies and lean proteins :) happy journey

lol!My niece would appreciate this post!! You look awesome girl! It goes to show that weights and toning is key! You are right, you have to measure and check your body fat % Keep it up!

Hey I am like you, work from home and night owl. I hit the gym later in the morning. My nutritionist said to have SOMETHING before myworkout, even if its half a protein shake or bar. Then high protein after my workout. I take something before workout so I can take my vitamins and B12 as well. Happy journey

lmbo! ya'll are killin me!! ha

i luv it! hilarious! (spell check)

Nice!! u look amazing! keep going!

VALID!! Cookies sure are good though...lol! I just try to remember that the things we put in our body is important. If we could turn ourselves inside/out...what would we look like? Important to feed ourselves healthy foods, so we have beautiful insides, to match our hot and beautiful outsides :) #jusayin
