The hardest part for me to wrap my mind around is that an apple has 16 grams of sugar, and I'm sure that no has been diagnosed with diabetes or gotten fat from eating a moderate serving of fruit daily. so 20 grams, when i'm eating all of these plant based sugars seems too extreme.

I am shameless about making my boobs look better than they actually do, buying the right size bra, stuffing a bra with socks, safety pinning the straps together to make a racer back affect, applying appropriate bronzer and highlighter, wearing two bras... the only one who gets to see what they really are like is my…

128? you said you were 5'9"? I'm 5'4" making it easy for the next person

screw dairy and any alcohol hahahaha. I have gotten down to 21% and that's as far as I've gotten, my problem is lack of strength training and working out because of my surgery :/

you have a playful smile and your glasses make you look very intelligent :)

i would say i know more about nutrition at 25 than most of the older people i know. really you should look at people's credibility rather than their age before listening to them. I'm not going to take advice from a 40 year old taking raspberry ketones and drinking green coffee. i know i thought i knew a lot at age 18, now…

better idea, try adding 10 more minutes to whatever cardio you do. :)

1RM is 110, 5'4" roughly 120 lbs. my goal is to squat my weight.

Thank you! Much easier than I thought!

Need to learn how to make dried beans!

also i live in a really rural area so everything is going to be way more expensive, i was wondering about buying health foods on the internet, but then there's the guilt of not buying it at the local food co-op :/

i forgot to mention i am stocking up for my new gluten free "vegan" lifestyle right now, so a lot of expensive things (gluten free flour, gluten free ketchup etc) are things I have bought recently to stock my pantry. it will probably level out to 350 and this is including all toiletries etc. thank you for all of the…

saturday :)

36. it is hard right now because people keep commenting on my body because i lost about 10 pounds and i have to get used to it, i have social anxiety so the attention makes me very nervous and self conscious. i am working hard on having a positive self image and hopefully i can love myself more and more

spirutein? http://www.spiru-tein.com/ this post has me looking up all different plant protein powders on amazon, i had no idea there were more options than just soy!

thank you! bump!

explaining the 500 calories under TDEE a pound of fat is 3500 calories worth of energy, if you have a 500 calorie deficit below what you require to maintain your weight you should lose 1 lb per week (7x500=3500) this deficit can be created through exercise and through dieting :)

i have heard that rodney yee is amazing. i started out with 10 minute yoga on netflix. it is great for beginners, and on netflix! total win!

you look like a new person :)

i found out that the lightlife soy dogs i found appear to be gluten free from my examination of the ingredient list :) THERE IS HOPE! thank you everyone :)

i feel like a keto diet is a waste of time and a waste of animals. why not just start incorporating healthy habits in your life that you will keep forever rather than speeding up weight loss that you're just going to gain back anyway because you never learned appropriate eating habits? just my two cents as someone who…

one more question, for those of you who take melatonin, what mg dosage do you take?

Thank you so much! I have been eating soy and not having symptoms from it so I think that's okay I may have to take a trip to tucson with a cooler to see what I can pick up. You gave me the idea of making my own black bean burgers Maybe I could make them and freeze them... thank you!

also, is it a grass or grain fed cat?

my boyfriend and i were wondering for the longest time how many calories were in a baby (human) if you find out how many are in a cat, maybe i can estimate...

Vanishing back? As in no rolls on my back!?!?! Count me in!

Lol! Sorry about the song! I have found that VS has nothing my size. I am probably a 30 or 28 f now. I have no idea where I will find something that size. Nordstroms sounds great we have a dillards here that might have something. I also like the idea of custom bras! I buy expensive ones so it really irritates me when the…

Do you know stores that carry those brands in the states? I should just Google it but I'm lazy :/

Aww thank you! That is so nice! No one has ever said I had abs before! I started out at 148 in 2009 and as Ive told people... about 500 little changes later and suddenly I'm one of those health freaks I didn't understand 5 years ago haha! I started by tracking food and counting calories and this year my main goal is to…

I wish for at least an ingredient list because I am gluten and lactose intolerant :(
