I've actually never gone to that one, I'll have to make a point to go this year. I'm checking out the one in Forest Hills on Sunday!

not stupid AT ALL, thats great! Awesome motivation and proof that your hard work is paying off!

I am also participating in my first organized race/ride on July 7!

I just recently got a new bike (the one in my pic) and a trainer so I can even ride my bike in the house. I LOVE cycling and especially living in NYC, it seems the be the fastest way to get around.. I'm hoping to become obsessed with it this spring/summer since I didnt get a bike until late in the summer last year and now…

I found mine at a bar in Brooklyn lmao! My bike is a brakeless fixie. My last bike was a single speed but they make "flip flop" bikes that you can switch between freewheel and fixie, that would be a good place to start! Check out zyclefix.com, they have some really awesome looking bikes!

When I was 15 I worked at Orange Julius at the mall food court. I worked by myself all day which is scary as hell at that age lol

I wonder how she calculated the calorie content LMAO. and thanks, my bf built it for me! Its so girly, I love it.

Oh and finally the people that have unhealthy goals.. If you're 5'7 and you want to be 100 lbs, we can't be friends.

OH HELL NO

What I don't like and Ive actually had this happen to me.. A "friend" whom I didnt actually know looking through my food diary and picked apart each day and what I did wrong.. I felt like I was being scolded. I understand wanting to help and giving advice but some people just go about it the wrong way.

I have been on synthroid for a little over a year now.. My dosage was increased every 3 months until it seems I've finally balanced out at 100mcg (for 6 months now). My hair was coming out by the handful any time i brushed or washed it. I was getting headaches and diziness. I will say that I feel it has helped with my…

Is this group still active? Im pretty stoked I got tickets for the Yanks vs Red Sox for $35 in June!

I take: Synthroid (100 mcg), Vitamin C, B12, Fish oil, probiotics and a green tea caplet.

Love this thread.. Not every woman aspires to weigh the same! You all look amazing & healthy which is most important!
-
The way I see it.. I would rather struggle with food than struggle with my health. it will never be easy to pick the right things to eat 100% of the time but if something is easy, its not worth it. Be proud of your accomplishments and never let anyone make you second guess your success.
-
wow you are amazing inside and out!

I usually eat out once a week (the only day i get to see my bf, we usually go out) but even then I keep within my calorie goals. I base my day around what I eat at a restaurant. There are also ways to track the calories in the food you eat when youre out, I find that to be helpful before I order my food.

Same here! I dont have any kids, so I have no excuse! my arms and legs are little, all of my weight is right smack in the middle! ::throws chair::

Hey everyone! I'm Jess, I popped up in here briefly last year. Just put together a new Leader brakeless fixed gear. Planning on doing the "tour de queens" (20 mile bike ride in NYC) in July. Its my first organized race/ride/event. It gives me a good reason to get out & train myself and work on endurance. I also just got a…
-
I've never done it either. All I really know is that its about 20 miles and theres a rest stop in the middle lol
-
Really?? We should meet up!
-
I ride a bike and I live in NYC! Just got a new one this past weekend :smile:
-
Ive been riding a single speed for almost a year and my first fixed gear build is almost done, just waiting on a seat. So excited!
-
Healthy choice makes greek frozen yogurt! Its like eating ice cream and each cup is 100 calories. Its awesome.

I've had a few.. One was my dad's gf asking how I was going to get my stomach out of the way when we took a picture (i think i was like 10 at the time) A few people over the years have asked me if I was pregnant. In high school they weighed us in gym class (in front of everyone) and yelled the weight across the gym to…
-
Its true about not knowing what a healthy weight looks like.. I have never been a healthy weight and I can't figure out how I would look if I was to be 130lbs.. Maybe one day I'll get there lol
-
I'll definitely be checking these places out.. Hopefully all of them!

:smile: I'm Jess, 26. Grew up in and still living in Queens :smile:

I work in a medical office and I am forced to constantly see a BMI chart on a daily basis and calculate it for all patients. According to this, I am "obese" however my blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose and all levels are within the perfect range. I have been told by physicians I work that the BMI chart is more commonly…

This is what I do, there are a ton of websites where you can find out the nutritional info.
