  • Me! I'm 5'4, and I currently weigh between 135-140. I wear a 6, and can sometimes squeeze into a 4. I wear smalls and extra smalls in shirts. I have a very small build, so really, I'm focusing on toning/eating right because I tend to look way too thin if I go below 130.
  • I'm 22, 5'4" and I weigh 136 pounds. I started at 145, and I'm hoping to get between 120-125. I have a really small frame and I tend to look emaciated when I'm too thin, so I'm definitely going to be stopping once I hit the mid 120s. I run between 5-6 days a week, and that's pretty much all I do. I'll do sprints some days…
  • English muffin pizzas! Whole wheat english muffins, pizza sauce, and Weight Watchers mozzarella cheese. I'm a pepperoni girl, so I add turkey pepperoni. Bake in the oven for like 10 minutes, and it's done! Good and easy!
  • 6 oz Plain Chobani yogurt. Mix in a Diet Swiss Miss packet and add 1 tsp chocolate chips! Delicious, low sugar, high in protein/ fiber and only 235 calories. High for a snack, but it's really filling because of the yogurt.
  • Have you tried skinnytaste.com? I love her recipes. They're easy, and they freeze really well. Sometimes I'll alter them to suit my tastes if I don't think I like them (ex., leaving out the minced onion in her Mac & Cheese recipe. I definitely recommend it if you haven't tried it already! I'm making her pulled pork as we…
  • I love doing 1/2 cup oatmeal with strawberries. I'll add truvia if I really need my sweet fix. Some days I'll do just raisins, and some days I'll do both! Also, oatmeal with apples and cinnamon! I'm oatmeal obsessed. (I'm pretty sure Truvia is considered clean as it is a natural sweetener and not artificial like Splenda,…
  • I'm trying to eat clean the majority of the time, but I really don't know much about it. I really don't eat processed foods (for the most part) and I stick to whole grains, fruits and vegetables. Definitely cut back on sugar, too. I replaced artificial sweeteners with Truvia. That's really the majority of what I eat. I've…
  • Mine's 5.5 and I'm 5'4". I have a very small frame.
  • Midsection first, hips/thighs last.
  • I've been eating Truvia instead of sugar and only eating "good" (fruit, whole grains, etc.) sugars, for the most part. If I need to make anything sweeter, I use the Truvia. It's supposedly natural. Good sugars include fruits, sugars in whole grains, etc. I don't eat white bread, white rice, white pasta or refined sugars,…
  • Spoon -___- I have really big hips and a very small upper body.
  • Here's what I do: 1/2 cup oatmeal 1/2 cup skim milk 1/2 cup water 1/4 cup raisins 1/4 cup sliced strawberries A packet of Truvia Optional: add about 10 or so almonds
  • I haven't given up anything. I just manage my portions. It's been working so far.
  • A couple Raisinets. Stanley Cup playoffs are stressing me out so I needed my sweet fix.
  • I only wore my HRM twice, because I found that it was annoying under all my equipment. I also had a reading of over a thousand. It didn't seem right to me, so I met it somewhere in the middle and recorded it as about 700-800 calories burned. Apparently I already commented in here - weird!
  • I'm in college, so of course I do. I just cut back on it, is all. I'll go out once a week, if that. I also stopped going out unless my team has parties, which is about every two weeks. I feel that this is a compromise - I'm still getting the social interaction and the fun of parties, but I'm also not going overboard. I've…
  • I made this: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2010/05/lighter-baked-macaroni-and-cheese.html It was delicious. I cut back on the onion a little bit though, since I'm not too keen on the onion taste. I also put broccoli in mine.
  • I've been obsessing over the recipes at skinnytaste.com. I make a lot of them and freeze them, as well. They're not too expensive to make and they taste really good.
  • All right, this is good to know. I'll try not to be too alarmed yet. I only have about 15 pounds to lose, so seeing a gain of two made me feel a little unhappy.
  • I never go ice skating either! So weird!
  • I wore my HRM a few times, and just logged what that said. I didn't wear it every time though because it got annoying. Just once or twice to see if it was consistent.
  • Don't worry about it. Just get back on track tomorrow. We all have these days.
  • I don't really care for flavoring my popcorn, but if I'm craving chocolate, I'll mix a fun-sized bag of M&Ms into my popcorn. It sounds gross, but it's a GREAT combination of salty and sweet! I only do this with smart pop though, because it already has the butter and salty flavor. I'm sure you could do it with regular…
  • Thank you! Seems like an awful lot but I'm not complaining! I'll eat 1957 calories of healthier foods and see where that takes me!
  • Good to know. I'm going to up my calories to a net of 1500 a day and see what that does. I think I wasn't eating enough my first time around. It's good to hear people with experience in eating more and losing more.
  • All right, I'm confused as well, so I'm just going to leave stats in hopes that someone will help me out. According to the Fat 2 Fit Radio, I am: 5'3" Female 22 Years old CW: 140 GW: 125 BMR: 1457 I've been eating 1200 a day using MyFitnessPal. I know I should be eating more than this, but I'm not sure how much. I work out…
  • Ah! Thanks for that link. I'm confused though. Do I eat the BMR number or the number from the chart at the bottom? The BMR is 1303 and the chart at the bottom said 1913. Thanks!
  • I wore tons of layers. Also, in my mind, wearing shorts under my jeans made me look thinner? I don't know what I was thinking, but I know for sure that I won't be doing that again!
  • This interests me a lot. I've been eating ~1200 a day, and I haven't seen much in the way of changes. I think I'm going to bump it up to 1400 and see what that does! I'm pretty active, so the lack of calories would probably explain why I've been so tired lately.
