I think its because there's little changes every day that you hardly notice until suddening you realize your clothes don't fit anymore. Then you really look and see yourself differently.

Two spoons of peanut butter, nom, done, 200 calories in!

That sounds like a tough call. I would see how it fits you now and see how close you are to getting it comfy for you. I'd hazard a guess that 30 lbs could work. In ladies sizing the size chart says one thing but when you try it on you need a smaller size so id try it on to see where you stand!

Seriously?? What if you are smaller than 4??

I started above 200 and refused to buy new jeans. I was living in my work out pants thank goodness I was writing weekends. 25 pounds later and I'm in my 10s and 12s. Today I'm wearing 8s but they are really stretchy and from the grocery store lol. Yesterday I tried on some 8s from American eagle and they wouldn't go past…

I've felt that way too. Lost a bunch till I was my school weight of 165 and short of stopped. Back at it and feeling super accomplished and I'm scared in 20 pounds I'll do the same thing. Maybe I'll buy some small pants and use those to fit into for motivation. We'll just have to motivate each other.

I reccomend a food scale since it is cheap. Others may disagree, but I don't think a hrm is necessary. For me at 180, I have been putting in my running burns at about 100 cals per 15 mins. I used this site to calculate it and it seems decently accurate.…

My android app just shows weekly from Monday to Sunday. I never thought to change the range. So I strictly go by that Listen to your body eat what you can and hope you lose weight, if not, adjust as needed :-) Also thank you, you had me check the settings to see if I can change the week range (i cant) And I found the area…

Is this a trick question?

If I was in your situation I would first try upping protein intake. Or try eating a bit more before my heavy lifting workout (if that is what you are doing). If I wasn't losing weight, I would make sure I am putting things into my diary right and if I am sure that I am, then I would try to eat 50-100 calories less and see…

I found when I had a mix of spinach and arugula and put 10g in, the taste was quite nice. But the arugula has a distinct flavour. Today I have spinach frozen fruit North Coast Naturals vanilla Greek yogurt Vegetable/fruit juice (like V8 fusion but PC version) Water/ice as needed

You are my lifesaver! I have a bowl of chick pea cookie dough that I made up a couple days ago to just eat raw and it did not do anything for my 'cookie dough' craving :( Luckily, I can use parts of this recipe to bake it into something delicious! Thanks!

None of my jeans were close to fitting me when I was 205lbs. I could do them up at 195 but would not wear them out due to muffin top. I am now down to 185 and can wear 3 out of the 4 jeans from before (bought some pajama jeans so that I had some 'fat pants' to get me through the next 30 lbs or so :P). One of the pairs is…

I have always been interested in going vegan and was vegetarian for a year, but is there any way to get 100g of protein while not overloading on carbs? General question, hopefully it's not too off-topic!

I have found since restarting in January, I can keep little chocolate pieces from my fancy chocolatier in my snack basket and just have one or two a night. When my fiance brings out plain chips, I can eat a small handful and be done with it. The chocolate came from Valentine's day sales, and next week I will be due to…

Lol, it is amazing how easy it is to eat so much food. On the flip side, once you are mindfully eating, it is so easy to eat less food :) Today it feels like I have no food at all when I look at it (two falafal balls for lunch) but it works out to get me to my goal...and I don't feel hungry.

Agreed, but she does have a point about the bloating part.

That sounds like it will put you on the right track to lose between 5-10 pounds. You are at a decent weight for your height right now, so why not look into strenght training and heavy lifting to shape the body the way you want?

Sending you a request! Feel free to add me future Canadian readers. Or anyone else, I'm not picky!

I run :) I haven't signed up for any yet, but I plan on doing a 5k for Goodlife at the end of May, a 10k for my local youth resource centre, our 5k Toronto Zoo run, and a 5k colour run this year. Once my strength and endurance improves, I want to do a Warrior Dash and eventually a Tough Mudder. Add meeeeee!

If you are measuring in kg, it's 1g per kg of total weight. In pounds its based on lean body mass

I did South Beach quite a number of years ago and the best thing to come out of doing that was that I no longer drink sugary drinks. I used to just guzzle Tropicana, Fruitopia, and Kool-aid. I now have no desire to have that and instead drink water and loose leaf tea. The same goes for pop. I don't like the sweetness of…

I'd do the celery but with peanut butter.

Same here. The last 3 months went by pretty fast, so it will go by before we know it!

Just going to chime in that those freaking scales are only $20 or so, it's not going to break your bank, lol. I'd say that when you use your measuring cups and spoons, don't fill them all the way up to account for possible error. Don't sweat it if you have succeeded in your weight loss. It sounds almost like you are…

Aw, man! I got Truvia thinking that it was stevia...guess I will use it up and actually get the real thing eventually.

I ate a 1/4 pounder and gained 1/4 pound. WTH?

I prefer Jpop but I do enjoy a bit of Kpop. I personally love BoA, there's a few others I listen to as well. Any suggestions are welcome. Also, feel free to add me!

Send to me in the mail I love love love black licorice

Well for me it was midnight truffle with cookie dough in it, but the flavors are off for me now :( I've been thinking this week actually of grabbing a mini to taste test. Even tho it tastes off I still get cravings for it lol.
