I've been working on my posture to combat back pain, but now, I feel where my abs are from working on my core two days in a row.

One of the You-tubers I watch carries it in a zip-lock bag that she labels protein powder not drugs. I always found that hilarious.

I recently looked at my weight tracker since I joined mfp. I wish I hadn't. The last time I was close to breaking under 200 was several years ago. It was both saddening and humbling to realize that I am almost to the heaviest I have ever been. I am hoping that I will get back to becoming healthier for myself. I am…

I love this math. I would need to lose my almost seven year old daughter to be considered a normal weight. I have trouble carrying her too but most of that is because she's so tall.

I'm Five foot two inches and my goal weight is 157 lb. I feel that once I am at that weight, I will have the option to reassess my goals.

Just for today, I will make my lunch like I did when I was posting pretty pictures of it.

I confess that I spent the whole weekend eating pasta and pizza while stressing for my finals and life.

@livingleanlivingclean I understand that people get paid to do this , but I was asking for an example not a full weeks worth of food planning and macro setting. I respect you opinion even if it did make me have an adverse reaction. I have tried to pre-plan a day and edit it along the way but I find that I am not grasping…

Today, 1) I will eat dinner at a decent hour. 2) I will go to bed before midnight. 3) I will pre-log my food. 4) I will exercise when I get out of work.

Just for today, I will 1) Log my food before I eat it. 2) Exercise despite my stress

I have just started using a heart rate monitor. I was very annoyed to see that my equipment was low balling my numbers. It's a love/hate relationship right now because my heart rate monitor also has a training program integrated into it and this week it wants me to go at lower rates which I find harder to do.

La Tortilla Factory makes a low carb tortilla La Tortilla Factory - Original Low Carb Torilla, 2 torilla (36g) 100 20 4 10 14 16 If you're not into strict corn tortillas

My suggestion would be to tell them before hand that you are trying to eat differently to help your health. I was put on a low-carb diet by a doctor and although everyone had an opinion about it, the easiest out was to tell them the truth: my stomach doesn't like that food and I don't want to feel sick later.

My biggest problem is people start noticing and commenting when I lose weight. I am very much an introverted person so all the attention whether it be good or bad gets to me. The next thing that starts bothering me is I start looking deflated because I have so much fat to begin with that any loss makes me look oddly hallow…

This sounds incredibly interesting. I would love to try if you're willing to have me.

I lived there for a while during my High School Days. Worry not, the commissary is rather good. You can walk between Vilseck and Graf.. I actually found German's to be rather understanding but you know people are people; they vary between each other. I also lived in Frankfurt, Ansbach, (Katerbach)and a few other cities I…

I'm going to San Antonio for the weekend and plan to eat like a starved person but only because there is a Korean Market I absolutely adore. I also plan to wander around the park most of the weekend so I am hoping it will balance itself out.

My favorite way to swim is by doing "Ladders". I do a couple of 50s varying my stroke then I progress to my 100,200,500, a lap of as far as I can go and then practice my flip turns. Unfortunately, where I am currently lacks an indoor pool with lanes so I haven't gotten to swim in about a year.

One of my daughter's many friends "reported" to my daughter that she had seen us both at the grocery store and that her Momma was really fat. She informed me that she told the other girl I was not. I told my daughter that I am over weight but it was not a nice thing for her friend to say and she shouldn't worry about it…

Beyer's makes a low-carb/ carb smart vanilla ice-cream that I adore. I tend to plan my meals in advance so I know if it will fit into my day or not.

First, let me say your math through me for a loop. When I was on low carb, I got down to about 20 g of carbs but I was eating a lot of protein, no breads, some dairy ( full fat cottage cheese), etcetera but I was often above my calorie goal of 1200. My best advice to you would be to pre-enter your meals for the day so you…

I totally need to steal your lunch. It looks divine.

You shouldn't be ashamed of yourself, Mrs. Sherry. We all allow ourselves to fall for various reasons. You have come a long way by admitting you want to change, now you just have to take it one day, step, moment at a time.

M yX did tons of things that would annoy me. He would do the video games or watch t.v. all the time but you know what? I enabled the video games ( I was the only one staying up in line to get the Wii when it first came out ) and I wasn't the best partner either. When I got tired of being ignored , I went online to read and…
