I hope you feel amazing because is obvious to outsiders you are accomplishing amazing work on yourself.

Words that come to my mind as I read your story: courageous, fighter, beautiful, persistent and cool person

Very Very cool! Great job!!

It sounds like you are serious about recovery so I am going to speak up here. I am a dietitian. You HAVE to get your out patient team together. 1) Get a therapist that you like that specializes in ED (THIS IS REALLY REALLY REALLY IMPORTANT!!!) 2) Get a Dieitian that specializes in ED , make sure those two communicate with…

Quick and dirty way Scale 1-10 aim for a 7 or 8. PS: Some weighs can help improve cardio http://www.huffandbuff.com/2010/07/08/exercise-exertion-talk-test/

Love this!! Great work!

Looks like a pile of garbage to me.

I started to reverse the cycle and bring healthy snacks and offer them to everyone all the time. Evenutally people stopped offering me garbage and just say oh no she won't eat that, whew!!! Who knows maybe u can start a new trend at work. BTW a plate of chopped vegetables is pretty cheap to bring in.

Regular Exercise!! Also, change exercise routine often.

You are awesome!!!!!

You put the work in and it shows!!! High Five!!!!

((Hugs)) 1)See a dietitian, pay out of pocket if needed. 2) Look up VSL#3 3) Avoid gluten 4) Limit fats until tolerated better.

Crappy foods no longer tempt. If I'm going to indulge on calories is going to be homemade/made from scratch with high quality ingredients and love! Damitt! LoL!

The plus side is you must make yummy looking food. Good thing you know how to cook. :)

I love seeing the Maintained pics and stories! Awesome!

For me its continue to set new fitness goals for myself. Some hard, some easy, some fun, some weird. For example: Run a race I have never entered in before Ride bikes/play hard at park with kids until they want to stop (not me) Dance every chance I get-at home, in car, with kid watching christmas light show Take a Trapeze…

1) See a GI doctor. 2) See an allergist that specializes in food allergies 3) Take a prebiotic and probiotic If diagnosed with IBS eat a Low FODMAP diet. Good Luck.

The human body can be a little weird. No wt. loss for weeks then bam down 9 lbs or something crazy. Just keep doing what you are doing obviously people are noticing and you feel great! Great work!

Ask someone to give you a hug. A REAL hug, not a half hearted one arm hug but a real hug. :flowerforyou: After the hug commit to logging in myfitnesspal. Log EVERYTHING the good, the bad and the ugly and just keep doing that day after day after day. Don't worry about the days you go over your calorie amount just keep…

So true. I have been shopping at Sprouts, Whole Foods and Trader Joes exclusivly for about a year (its a big sacrifice financially but I feel its worth it.) Anyhow, the other day I had to run into a "normal" grocery store and was blown away by how little "real" food there was in the place just piles and piles of garbage…

HUGE congrats to you. The best is you likely your family has improved nutrition/health and pretty amazing role model as well.

HUGE CONGRATS!!!

It's another old crappy fad diet. Side Point: A dietitian did NOT come up with this diet. A naturopathic physician named Peter D'Adamo, did.

Low carb diets are called Carb controlled or carb counting diets and they are the standard recomendation for Type 2 Diabetics. Just look at the American Diabetes Association Website. http://www.diabetes.org/food-and-fitness/food/planning-meals/carb-counting/ The general rule of thumb is 45-60 grams of carbs per meal but…

The guy above is correct also. It is usually 300-500 more than if you were not breastfeeding. PS: be sure to continue to take your prenatal vitamin the entire time you are breastfeeding also

Teens are interested in having fun, making money, looking cool in front of friends. Stop talking about "Wt. Loss" just do super fun stuff that is active helps build a healthy life Suggestions: **Jump on giant trapoline *Take the whole family to a dieitian for healthier family eating-DAD ALSO!! *A HUGE gift would be cooking…

Amazing!!!

You look SO much younger! In the first pic you look like you 40 in your profile pic and 2nd pic you look 20. All your hardwork shows clear as day. Hugs!
