Chocolate VegaOne (blended with almond milk), but I HAVE to also blend with a banana otherwise the taste is weird, but the banana makes it taste great (magic?). I also need to blend it, shaking won't do squat.

I'm 5'5" but I started at 181 pounds. I was able to eat 1,200 for a little while, but it soon became too little and I would be hungry a lot. I can and could eat between 1,200-1,400 and lose weight and I've been successful doing that. If you are finding you are hungry throughout the day, eat a little more, but make sure you…

Thank you! I am 5'5"

That some people (friends/family) will start to ask you if you are sick, starving yourself, and/or are too skinny. This has been one of the hardest things, and it has only been happening recently. Right now I am in the middle of my healthy BMI (range 111-150 and I'm at 132) and I'm definitely not "too skinny". People had…

Don't let a bad day escalate to a bad week, month, year+.

Only when I hit a pant size 6 (dress size 4) at ~135 pounds did I stop getting bad chaffing. I definitely do NOT have a thigh gap lol. Occasionally there is still some chaffing, but I can now go for a three mile run in shorts and not regret it. I feel much better about wearing dresses in the summer though, and that is…

I wish I had been able to figure things out in college and that I was able to lose it all and keep it off when I was 18. I was able to lose weight, but I yo-yoed a lot and was never able to get under 147 (from 181). But I realize now that I just couldn't get in the right mindset at the time, and that's okay. I am doing it…

I lose between 0.5-2 pounds a week. There have been a very few amount of times where I have lost three, but I think it was only because I was retaining water from the week before. Now that I am closer to my goal weight I don't really lose more than 1 pound a week.

I posted a while back and I am down another 6 pounds, but I took a photo last night that compares well with another I had taken a few years ago, so here it is! Sorry they are not in order - the two pics that are ~170 I am not entirely sure how correct that is, but my highest weight was 181 and those two pictures are…

I'm in medical school - I yo-yoed a lot in college and I am actually doing my best and losing the most consistently IN medical school. Grad school is an awesome motivator to lose for, but you can still lose in grad school too if it doesn't happen as fast as you want :) Feel free to add me!

So excited! I love Game of Thrones (books and series). All about that House Stark! Winter is Coming...

That happened to me - I ended up with a BMI of 30 and was shocked that I was obese (I was on the edge, but the wrong side of the edge lol). I was in denial, but I also hated photos and thought they were just all terrible angles. I also hated the way my pants felt. I just decided that I needed to make a change, take charge…

I'm getting married in July :) I would love to lose my last 10-15 pounds by then!

This is great. It also says that I will get to my goal weight the weekend of my wedding lol.

My thighs! I've lost some inches there but they are definitely the last thing I will be losing.

The biggest thing for me was to learn that there can be no "all-or-nothing" response to losing weight. I would yo-yo because I would mess up and that would trigger old habits and I would go back to the way I was before. Now I realize that if there is a special occasion, sick, or just super hungry one day, I should eat more…

I feel like I am learning/noticing new things all the time! - Like everyone says, YES I am so much colder all the time - Mentally I am way behind my body in what I think I look like - I realize what my body is actually supposed to look like and that I have a smaller frame than I thought - Picking something out to wear for…

Ditto - I hope some spots open up!

I fluctuate between 8-10. My diet is always super on par but my exercise waxes and wanes depending on my schedule. I do always make sure to get out on some walks though, especially now that the weather is better :)

I would love to lose 5 pounds to go from 135--->130. Although at this point I expect only to lose a max of 1 pound each week :)

I'm currently in medical school but I also lost weight in college (I was originally 181 and I am down to 135 and still losing). I think realizing obtainable goals is the key thing in college. Even now, I realize that I may not be able to exercise the way I want, but I always have control over my diet. I am doing better now…

I like my shake because I can make it taste awesome. I also tend to feel bloated easily so if I drink something instead of eat then I don't feel so icky. I use VegaOne chocolate flavor with almond milk and a banana (which is the magic ingredient that makes it taste great). I also usually fall short of my protein goals…

Mine is my profile picture :) I started from 181 pounds although in the before picture I think I am in the 170's, I can't remember. I am pretty sure I never had a picture taken of me at my highest. And then in the After picture I am 139 although now I am 135 and probably won't update it again until I am 130 or maybe at my…

I was wondering too :) ! This sound like so much fun!

This happens to me alllll the time. If I let myself I could eat my oatmeal/banana/peanut butter/cinnamon breakfast for each meal of the day lol. It will change too once I get bored of something. Allowing myself to eat too much of one food tends to be a binge trigger for me, so I do not let myself have 'seconds' of…

Before: Shirt (L), Pants (14), Dress (12/10) After: Shirt (S), Pants (6), Dress (4/6) I've lost 46 pounds and would like to lose another 10-15 :)

I've gone down from 181 to 135 and would love to be around 120. I am in medical school and I would love to have more energy and feel physically better during my medical education/training and for eventually being a doctor! I felt so sluggish and low energy when I weighed and ate more, now things are much easier :) And I…
