Thank you Michelle your feedback and personal situation were so helpful :) Good luck on your weightloss journey :)

Heres what I did I used a tdee calculator and set it at no activity so that it isnt accounting for any excersise or activity. I took that number and subtracted 20% Which gave me 1500 so this is my daily goal UNLESS I excersise then I just do my best to eat back as many calories as I burned ( I like to stay 100 under tho…

Okay good so I am not crazy ? :) I just feel like I can be more accurate and rally understand my body and its needs better if I am customizing my days based on when ever I feel like excersising LOL .

The reason I dont is because I burn diff and do diff excersises all the time. Today I burned almost 900 calories tomorrow will prob be non and then friday may be 300 . I may got 4 days without working out... you know? so I feel like this way it all evens it self out. I know exactly what I am getting and why and I know as…

I am 23 years old 5'7" and 185 pounds My TDEE is 2,000 set at sedentary I subtracts 500 so My daily goal is 1500 calories a day and I eat back my excersise calories I workout 3-5 times a week but didn't include that in my calculations so I could eat back cals and make it easier to keep track on MFP so this morning I bunred…

I ignore sugar completely as long I know it is coming from a natural clean source such as fruits, veggies, honey, male syrup, stevia, or organic forms of it. If you are eating processed foods with added sugars then I would deff limit those. You should also always buy plain non fat ypggurt and sweeten it yourself using…

Dear Time4hard, WATER- fast ;)

^this

I don't think you are gonna find much motivation or support on this subject. This just isn't the right way to treat your body. End of Story. There is no way to stay sane or on track. You are just going to gain back the weight you "lost" when you stop. If you don't pass out, hurt yourself, or end up in the hospital before…

THANKS SO MUCH EVERYONE!!! OKAY- SO - 1. Deff washing my face before and IMMEDIATLEY after a work out 2. buying bacteria bar 3.buying face wipes 4.doing a honey cinnamon mask once a week 5.More Water 6. Not touching my face as much 7.getting a organic moisturizer and using it once in the AM and once in the PM 8.Mutli…

Aw you are so nice! Thank you! I mean I dont have acne... zits and pimples all in one area... and its not so pretty.

I have heard al ot about the coconut oil too and I have organic coconut oil. but how do you use it as a face wash? Just plain? do you heat it up add exfoliants or baking soda???

My diet has been pretty SPOT ON my diary should be public I mean I have cheats, but Who doesnt?? I deff eat much better than I was 2 months ago and my skin was great. I drink lotts of water that is all I drink besides one cup of coffee a day. I havn't chaged ANY of my make up, or used any weird new cleansers. I am not…

Thanks girls!! I do not work out in make up. But will prob end up doing it sometimes since I am joinging a gym. I am a stay at home mom so I really don't wear it unless it's an errand day or family day or date night. I wash my bedding once a week, I wash my face every night but not RIGHT after work outs, and I moisturize a…

You shouldnt feel self concious around your partner. I hope he is not making you feel this way. You are eating helathy. When you are hungry you should eat! I eat more than my hubby but he snacks on CRAP and Im chowing down on salads, and wraps, and fruit and yogurt. He actually trys to make me enjoy junk with him that is…

SO TRUE!! Well Said. Never seen name calling ??

Real Organic unsalted butter is considered a clean/healthy form of fat. It is made from sweet cream and that is it. Other butter spreads or margarines are made of oil and artificial ingredients and sodium. If you are going to flavor your food using fat you should use small amounts of real butter, light olive oil, or…

Do: Whatever you can to make your(small) meals beautiful! Dont: Think negative thoughts-" I cant" "its impossible" "Im too tired" "Im not meant for this lifestyle"

UMMM... NO.

Im pretty sure any sane 50 year old would know that a cup of hott chocolate does not qualify as dinner? She knows what she is doing is not HEALTHY. If you read what I wrote before I said exactly the same thing you did. If she is writing a post raving- this works, its great, I am not doing any thing wrong because I am not…

Your whole day is like... my lunch.THIS IS CRAZY. You need to go to a pro ana site or something if you are looking for support you are not going to get it here. this is my FITNESS pal not my weightloss pal. We are all here for one reason- to get fit and healthy not starve ourselves.

The truth hurts :/

No offense I dont mean to sound harsh or judgemental. But it sounds to me like you have a eating disorder. There is just no way your are not hungry or you wouldn't have to pick at a small salad three times through out the day. Soon enough you are gonna stop dropping pounds- and hit a plateau- because your body will need…

I did not join a gym because I have four kids and didn't want to pay the childcare... But after this thread I am so glad I made my husband buy me a treadmill and weights... I never realized that people were really this judgemental at the gym!!! I hang on to my handlebars all the time.. if it helps me do 60 min of cardio…

HAHA That is not real life!?!?!?!? I would have died laughing.

love your style <3

umm both guys NICE abs ;))) nice skin nice ... everything ?? ;)

It's okay to "blow it" sometimes. It's human. Good for you for taking the steps to lead a healthier lifestyle. For setting goals for even trying to change. Change is hard. You can do it :) Tomorrow is a NEW day with new chances to make healthy choices. You go girl!!!!!! I beleive in you :)

Honestly i would skip the stuffing or filling all together. Mushrooms are delicious rosted with olive oil and garlic and sea salt all by themselves. No need to fix something that aint broken ;)

Thank you :) As a stay at home mom to four kids 5 and under- I've got to be a good thinking, budget savy, diva :)
