  • I feel your pain! I think lots of people are having the same feelings! I'm all about giving myself a piece of candy or cookie on occasion, but when you see them at work everyday its hard (for me personally) to resist. When I'm home I keep nothing of the sort in my house, so temptation is no where around. Just before you…
  • Hey Brittany! You'll be running circles around your boys soon! Just stay strong :)
  • Do you find yourself eating more foods you shouldn't, like high fat/sugar/carbs? Maybe try filling your day with lots of protein to help keep those craving down. Lots of veggies are great too, you can have a ton of them and keep the calories low. I feel your pain and my biggest down fall is at night. I go strong all day…
  • Added you as a friend! I log daily and my longest streak was 60 days!!!
  • I'm very sorry to hear about the things that you have to worry about. However it seems that you put so much worry into everything else but yourself. It's understandable to worry about your kids and grand kids, but you have to remember that you matter as well. You are just as important to them as they are to you. Take a…
  • Sorry to hear about the thyroid disease! That has to be tough. I'm sure if you research it a bit there must be some good food/exercise plans for people that have a thyroid problem. I'll let you know if I come across any in my research, which I am always doing!!
  • I'm ready more into switching up or confusing your body is best. I too think I will try and change it up next week and see what happens. At the end of this journey I'll be a weight loss specialist lol!!
  • Good advice and good job on the -84 - go you! - for the last month my eating has been clean, with the occasional meal out (like 1 a week) but even then I always try and pick the cleanest thing! Maybe I just need to give it more time
  • My main forms of exercise is kickboxing, which I do about 3-4 times a week (an hour each session), and I go jogging/biking 1-2 days. I have cut out just about anything processed, I mean I'm not perfect and I have a cheat day when I will go out to eat. No gluten, really no carbs except for what you get from veggies. And for…

  • You had me with peanut butter out of the jar binge. Soo happy to hear I'm not the only one that takes the spoon to the jar !
  • I'm on a bit of a "high" motivating myself and would be more than happy to help others!! I too see seem to go strong for a while and then stop. I had double foot surgery in May (yes, I do have these silly feet issues that keep leading to surgeries!) and that set me back once again. However since I got the okay to start…
  • Everyone looks like they did great on the first week! I'm down 1lb, which I'm totally fine with! I really feel like this month will be successful. And I don't always believe the scale haha, because my tight pants were not so tight yesterday morning lol! Good luck in week two!!!
  • I lost 1 lb! Haha, nothing special, but I will take it. I had a really bad eating weekend due to schedule, so I kind of expected no loss. I'm sure like most of you, it's sometime difficult to balance life! Setting aside time to work out is a must though and this week I am putting that first. So it looks like it will a lot…
  • For anyone looking to help keep those hunger pains down, I recently discovered these amazing tasting protein bars that have helped me. QuestBar, they sell them at GNC. They actually taste really good, you should heat them for like 5-10 seconds if you can. Low in sugar, high in protein. They are so good last night when I…
