I feel your pain. I make "pizza salads", loaded with olives, onions, peppers. It is not the same. But helps.

Fitness tone, yes. I saw a female skier in a thigh high dress, her legs look like Arnold Schwarzenegger's. I say, if you have thick muscled legs like that, really, skip the thigh slits.

It depends. I have had partners who just lay there. Literally. That means zero calories for them, 2500 for me.

Eat what you want. But half of the portions you normally eat. And really, food is fuel. Just stop eating what you want. I have a friend who is size zero, all she drinks is Diet Coke mixed with skim milk. She eats like a bird. She never exercises. But, the key is that she is a very picky eater. She hates meat, cheese,…

I would get thrown into the pit by my team.

Slow is better than none. I also think just getting up from the sofa is a start. Look at cleaning and organizing as exercising. Just anything off the sofa is a starting point. Park in the far corners of parking lots. Something is better than nothing.

Her kids are 7, 9, and 11. When they were younger she dumped them in the childcare at the gym. The gym won't take kids over age 6 at the childcare. So, you need to find a gym with childcare.

Asianfashionista takes me to her favorite boutique, she decides to be my stylist, and puts together a great outfit for me. We go have pedicures and hit a new trendy sushi place in town, where all the food looks like "Hello Kitty". We end the date on the roller coaster at the Stratosphere.

Be like my neighbor, go to the gym after work for two or three hours, and leave the kids home alone. She had a great shape and body.

A big bowl of chicken broth, filled with veggies.

A fresh, crisp Jongold apple. Looking forward to Fall!

"Sure, I am a "Fat Chick", but not desperate!".

Your BF is giving you the wrong information. His CO would have to refer him to the dietician. The CO can't make medical determinations for eligibility. Or discharge. That is medical, and he would recieve a letter. The letter would be a warning, and give him a time frame with body fat percentage and goals. If his CO did…

I bought a pair of Capri length sweatpants an Old Navy, and a tank top with a loose t shirt over that. Works fine for me.

Messed up. But, it also goes to prove that losing weight is not the end all solution to all of life's problems. I had this epiphany myself when I weighed 125 and my husband still cheated on me. He kept telling me I was too fat for him. No, he was a jerk.

Get a spiralizer and start using zucchini

Tough choice. I gotta go with ice cold chocolate milk.

There was a Facebook posting about a woman who felt fat shamed at Old Navy. I would think when you have an experience like that, rather than make an issue that the world is "mean to fat people", really own that experience and use it as an opportunity for change. I am not excusing fat shaming, or making fun of her…

Not eating dinner and grazing all night.

Bread is the Devil.

No. Visibility factor during winter is lower. Same as running in rain, if you are crossing streets, at dusk, dark. Daylight hours, no, I have fallen on ice, it is not a "run". There is fitness, and there is having sense to stay safe.

I eat my food before going, a piece of salmon, large salad. Then, at a party, I may have a piece of watermelon.
-
Stay away from chips, alcoholic beverages, request a large salad, no sour cream, cheese or guacamole. Salsa dressing. Skip dessert.

I was stupid and had low self esteem. Glad I am cured now, and left for good.

I shop at Walmart, and stick to veggies, and shop the "edges", not the aisles. Although I was looking for a tea, and found a huge section at Walmart that was dedicated to "gluten-free" foods. Salmon? I got a big bag in the frozen food section, wild caught.

Interesting how versatile cottage cheese is...I have never tried it with cocoa or peanut butter. I will dump a cup into a Lean Cusine spaghetti. Or add seasonings, I have an Asian blend that makes cottage cheese delicious. My favorite is to make a "faux" egg salad, mixing it just like egg salad...yummy!

We all "know" what to eat, and how to lose weight. You keep yourself trapped, because you lose focus and motivation. I KNOW I need to lose weight, for my health. But, exercise is SO difficult at my weight, just thinking about it is exhausting. So much easier to eat a bowl of ice cream... Just do one day at a time. One…

Set up for fail. We try to "diet" and change everything in our life on Monday, by Thursday you are sore from working out too much, and ravenously hungry from lack of food, so you stop at McDonalds on the way home, because there is nothing "good" to eat at home. And the binge starts. Then, Friday, you feel like crap, and…
