I think I added everyone here, if I missed you let me know!! Thank you for responding!! I did my first 5x5 today and calculated my IIFYM to make sure I'm eating my way to toned as well. Felt like I barely did anything, but I've been assured that this is how you start... that it's important to get your muscles moving and…

You forget, if every response isn't spilling over with rainbows and unicorns.. it's snarky. Damn snarky I tell you. :huh:

DO IT...

Just watch what you eat. I lost the last 30 pounds in 6 months without any exercise. IF you want to exercise, there are free weight loss videos online, you can walk or run outdoors, play with your kids, ride bikes, etc.

Yeah, Gluten has nothing to do with Diabetes... =/ In fact going Gluten Free increases the sugar content in some foods and therefore is WORSE for diabetics.

There is no reason to EVER hate your body. It does what it does because it believes it's protecting you or it's trying to process how you feed/condition it. If you think about it, years ago having weight on your body meant you were well fed and healthy. Now I don't mean excessive... but a size 14 or 16 girl who is 5'7…

and... Where are you getting this information? The truth is Fast food isn't any more or less "real food" then what you choose to consume at home. It has the same nutritional, caloric, and macro values as it's home purchased version. MCD's Fries: Potatoes. (Potatoes, Vegetable Oil, Citric Acid, Dextrose, Sodium Acid…

I'd never want to envy someone elses body... they aren't me and I'll never be them. I'm excited about who I will be and that's what I reach for.

I haven't had cow's milk since I was 14 years old... no trend or bandwagon here, it just grosses me out. I've experimented with Soy. Rice, and Almond and Almond is freakin awesome.. Plus it lasts forever.

Muscle does NOT weigh more then fat, five pounds is five pounds. Muscle is more dense then fat and therefore has less volume per pound. And carbs do not make you fat, over eating does.

There are one of three problems: 1. You are eating too much. Try staying closer to the 1400 mark and only eat back cals when you expend them. 2. Your under estimating your cals. Get a scale to make sure you are eating what you claim to be. 3. You are over estimating how much you are burning. 4. You are gaining muscle. It…

Do your cardio outdoors as a natural activity. Boredom = fixed.

It totally depends on your body really... someone who is severely overweight could lose five pounds in a week and it's still a healthy regime where as someone who only has 10 pounds to lose might just drop .6 of a pound and it's still great success. The biggest problem with the diet industry and all of the blogs and such…

This is so easy it's difficult, seriously. PLEASE don't google diet plans of any kind. Concentrate on altering what you do naturally. There is no reason to eliminate anything from your diet that you love, you just limit how much of it you consume daily. Make this simple stupid and I promise you'll stick to it AND see…

Thanks so much guys!! I'm pretty happy with my progress and excited to not have to give up on food I loved!! There is no "cheat day" if you cheat every day!! Lol!

Oh and one other thing... Even though I find the OP's post to be ludicrous? I'm just as flabbergasted that a few of you claim you "struggle to eat 900 calories" let's not be silly. A couple spoonfuls of peanut butter is 1000 calories. One piece of cake can be 500-800. A value meal at McDon's is 1,400... It's not hard to…

1. You will not "gain all of your weight back" as long as you're eating maintenance and monitoring your cals because.... science. 2. "Eating clean" has no real baring on weight loss, calorie deficit however... does. 3. Exercising aides in cardio health but if you are not in calorie deficit you will not lose weight. (Again,…

Mine is't as impressive as many others... but it is 31 pounds!! (Big photos current... small photos before)

No Ice Cream eh? Welll......
-
I eat anything i want that fits in my calories goals... I've had cake, McDonalds, Arby's and Salads all in the same week. Just budget for your day and stick to it. There is nothing you "shouldn't eat" except maybe a full tub of crisco... cuz that's gross... but I mean if it works into your diet? Even cookies and donuts are…

You might want to learn to calm down and let thing slide if you intend to survive the internet.

5'7 and currently 148 ish and a size 9/10 (down from bordering on a 14 in January) I'm trying for 140 ish before I add some muscle weight back in, but I can't go below 135 / size 7 or I look like a Skeleton.
-
I had Arby's last night and McDonald's today... Fast food is a staple around here, however I try to eat salads or bunless sandwiches and fries. No bun = more calories for tasty food stuff.
-
You don't really have to "diet" so to speak... just watch your calorie intake. I still have fast food, chips, ice cream, etc. I just watch my portion sizes and stick to my calorie goals. If you give in to your cravings with control you won't have them. For instance, you crave ice cream? Stick to the actual portion size on…

The hawtness in here is astounding.. WOWZAS!!!

Followed by.. How's that again?

That's right!! Because of you.. I'm suffering from sugar overdose.... and it tastes soooo goodd.... ...Where's my dealer, I need my fix! ;D

That depends on your definition of Nutrition. If my body receives energy from it? I'd label it a positive. But like all things must be consumed in moderation and responsibly. There are a lot of things in live no one NEEDS... but it doesn't change the fact that they are allowed to indulge as they choose if they manage to do…
