We buy in bulk at BJ's club (which helps reduce the impulse buys!) so we don't always go every week but some of our staple items are: bread eggs english muffins waffles milk reduced fat shredded cheese cheese sticks or mini baby bels hashbrown patties bacon fruits of all kinds avocado, shredded cabbage, tomatoes, onions,…

I had my first cheat day last weekend and I pretty much regret it. Mainly because when I checked my nutrition for the week I was over my net calories. I have no problem with being over one day and it evening out by the end of the week because that means I'm still within my 7000 calorie deficit to lose approx. 2 lbs/week.…

Amy I feel sure all the lesbians here have already sought out your friendship lol you are ms. popular!

cottage doubles, greek yogurt, cheese sticks or baby bels, milk, eggs, veggies (onion, tomatoes, squash, cabbage...), lunch meat, baking potatoes/sweet potatoes, chicken/pork, bacon (I can't live without a little bacon or sausage for flavor in cooking stuff), special k cracker chips, some type of easy quick breakfast (I…

Me too! And it's so true lol my partner and I have chapsticks stashed all over our home, car, backpacks, etc.
-
Lesbian, female, and neither femme nor butch, at least not stereotypically. More of the "chapstick lesbian" variety :) My partner and I both have dominant personalities but she is dom in our relationship, which I guess makes me submissive lol. We don't really draw lines though- we do what works for us.
-
In my relationship we both do what we want, and don't adhere much to the dom/sub, butch/femme stereotypes BUT my partner has made it quite clear that she intends to do the asking and it's important to her and she would feel awkward if it were the other way around. So I respect that because I don't want to take that…

I have some clothes already from about 6 years ago when I was at my lowest adult weight. Mainly a couple pair of jeans that I've just never been able to throw out because they are practically new- and I always save my jeans in all sizes because I have to buy tall/long lengths and I usually have to order things. I'd rather…

Not really a recipe, but when I don't want a plain old steamed veggie I use Kernel Season's popcorn seasonings on my veggies. They have butter, white cheddar, nacho cheddar (my favorite) and ranch- they are all REALLY good and only 2 cals per 1/4 tsp. I use the butter one instead of butter and I swear it tastes just like…

I walked 1.3 miles today, which puts me at 5.76/15 miles for the month.
-
My goal is set at 150 but I will see how I look/feel when I get closer to that weight. I'm not set on it. I just want to like my body and feel comfortable and feel like I look good. I have some serious hips and I wouldn't want to ever look bony so I'm cool with whatever looks good on my frame.
-
Oil is pure fat- that's as calorie dense as it gets! Definitely needs to be counted if you want an accurate log. I measure everything out using a measuring spoon for oil or butter EVERY single time, no matter what I'm cooking. I had no idea how much I was using before but now I try to decrease it in recipes and use as…
-
I will do just about anything to not go over my calories, lol. I'm kinda OCD about it. I would either go to bed early, or do a workout to earn some more calories and drink a glass of milk to hold me over til I get to sleep.
-
I like the butch/stud kind of look but when I see 2 together it's just that much hotter lol. My partner is I guess more of a soft butch and she considers me femme (I think?) but I really fall somewhere in between in my mind. I do not relate at all to femmes, but I'm not butch either. We do what we want :) I think everyone…

Something similar happened to me when I weighed about 265, so it definitely depends on your proportions, not just your weight. The roller coaster I wanted to ride actually had 2 of the ride's seats on display in front of the entrance so that people could see if they would fit before waiting in line. I told my husband at…

mmmm.... talenti... my g/f got me hooked on that stuff!! So yummy!
-
I'm a student/mother of 3 and I am making time 3x/week to get out and walk. I can either go on the weekend when my partner is home, or go during the week while my big kids are at school and little one is home napping (my partner works nights so she is home all day, although she is asleep). I'm looking to start adding in…
-
I walked 1.49 miles today, so a total of 4.46 I believe out of my goal of 15 miles.
-
I just remind myself that the only way the scale will go down is if I stay on track. Something has to give eventually!
-
I won't share anything that I've meticulously measured and weighed out and figured up calories for! My kids can be total mooches but they know better than to think they can sneak a bite of mommy's meals now :) I want to enjoy every single calorie I log!
-
My partner wants me to carry some when I walk. So we're looking into it I guess. I'm not opposed to it- I feel like if someone was seriously going to try and attack me they deserve whatever they get. I only go out in broad daylight on a fairly busy street so it's not a huge concern anyways. Honestly I should probably be…
-
I'm 5' 9" and my goal is 150 just because that's about the middle of the "healthy" BMI range for my height. I have always been told I carry my weight fairly well though and I would like to be tone when I get closer to my goal/end weight so I will really be happy with whatever weight looks good in my opinion. I'm guessing…

I like to watch my friends' diaries to get food ideas and see what kinds of meals are low on calories, etc. After a while you will start to learn what types of things to avoid, and also your taste buds might adapt to the new diet and you may find yourself craving and enjoying some of the healthier foods more than you ever…

Hi, I started with the same amount to lose to reach my goal as you did! I've lost 26 (I think) so far- my goal is 150. I'm on here every day logging my food and exercise and my diary is open too. I'll send you a friend request. Also there is a group called 100+ to lose or something like that which is all people who started…

You have to get to the point that you want it so bad and you are so motivated that it doesn't matter what anyone else is eating. Their choices shouldn't affect your choices, but I understand it can be much harder to resist temptation when it's staring you in the face. That's life though and you just have to decide the best…

I walked 1.47 miles today. My total so far is 2.97 out of my goal of 15.
-
I think mine would be a tank top. I've always dressed very modestly due to my size, and I've never worn anything sleeveless because I'm so self conscious about my upper arms. I would love to feel comfortable in a tank top and jeans or maybe even shorts- who knows!
-
I walked 1.5 miles today out of my 15.

You are in control and you can't find reasons why it won't work- you have to find the reasons why it will work. Focus on success and make the changes you need to make to get the results you want. If you aren't comfortable in the gym I agree with the previous people- maybe find a way to workout elsewhere. I can't afford a…

This sounds like just what I need, I'm trying to get into the habit of walking more and I only have 1 walk that I tracked to go on as far as setting my goal.... so I'll start with a goal of 15 miles for my first month. That's only dedicated walks for exercise- not regular day to day stuff.
