I like number two. The occasion calls for a dressy shoe and i think number one is too basic between the color and the style. Have fun!

The weight loss process is not stopped due to menstruation. Extreme hormone fluctuations can change your metabolism rate but do not prohibit weight loss. Men and women both can have their weight fluctuate several pounds in just a day with changes in hydration/water retention/salt intake. Daily attention to hydration helps…

How about planning some rewards for your progress like a manicure or massage for every five or ten pounds lost? A shopping trip for some new jeans at goal weight. Go sell any clothes that are too big that are not worth taking in and make sure you feel good about walking out of the house everyday by wearing something you…

Way to go darling! You are doing great!

I used to work with makeup (in a store) and keep my personal supplies hygienic to last longer-I don't dip into a product again after the applicator was on my skin,use fresh clean set of brushes each time especially for each client, etc. I could not have people randomly dipping into the same supplies I would use on clients.…

I agree that you need more support ASAP!!! Teen Line (800) 852-8336

It would be great if you could find someone to talk to in person about what you are going through. Wishing you all the best-just know every awkward teenage moment will pass and most other people are too busy worrying about themselves. A nutritionist could really be of help to figure out what you need calorie-wise as a…

First-Shawna you have a darling profile pick and started a great thread, thanks! Re; above quote-I don't think your formula works for everyone. Maybe if you are in close range of your goal. Per MFP, to lose my net calories should be 1200 and my BMR is 1600, creating a deficit. If I eat my weight +0 I would be above my BMR…

Oh boy, how many calories do I have left today for a sweet snack? No butter to make cinnamon toast or I would try that. You guys on higher calorie allowances may not have the same problem but the sugars are prohibitive for me at 1200 net calories a day/24 grams sugar. Have not mastered the solution to sweet cravings, even…

If you really want to be accountable...open up your food log and post what your exercise goals are so we know what to keep you accountable to, ok?

I have been using the Jergens Natural Glow tinted moisturizer with sunscreen. So multi-purpose! Also like Heidi Klum's version, "In an Instant". Occasionally will want some concealer to cover spots, then I use Bare Escentuals powder foundation.

Congratulations! Not a fan of the cash bar. Open bar not a necessity though for some groups. If you want to keep it simple, you could have a midday wedding with reception featuring beer, wine, champagne, cake and light sandwiches. No one will be anticipating a heavy feast or heavy drinking at that time and you are off to…

Awesome progress in three months time. keep up your good new habits and the daily exercise!

Tracy Anderson has a highly regarded workout program, "Metamorphosis" with three options based on body shape-you might want to check that out. Adding a little muscle to your back, chest and arms helps to visually balance towards a hourglass look.

I have found it super important for me as part of a couple to find active pursuits we both enjoy together. I recommend it whenever possible. Otherwise to spend time together is becomes all movies, food & drink. My former roommate & I would ride bikes, take beach walks and check out competing farms stands on the weekends,…

Congratulations!!!!!!

Challenge accepted!

I asked a trainer once how to prepare for a big hike-he said the best thing was to do shorter hikes to work up to it & when I could not, to do the treadmill on an incline. Walking on flat surfaces and treadmills does not prepare you for walking on rock or gravel so outdoor walking is important for training or else you…

Every day is a chance to try and do it all better than the day before. There is a good video online that explains how to manage your energy input vs. output. Go to https://herbdocblog.com/# then scroll down to The Simple Science Of Weight Management: Calories CONSUMED Vs. Calories BURNED Exercising three days a week is a…

Oh, btw, I start the day with 1-2 glasses of water, have water 1/2 hour before meals or 1 hour later. Not more than a few sips with a meal as it dilutes your digestive enzymes

I have three suggestions. I am no expert on this but your body is going through adjustments walking that you are not getting from the stationary bike. Proud of you for not letting this issue stop you from exercising. I think that you can work through it. 1. Keep well hydrated throughout the day, it is important when you…

No! My SO has no idea how much I weigh! Only one person knows the exact number-the weight loss coach I met with a couple of times before I found this website. I got brave enough to tell a friend the approximate number of pounds I wanted to lose and the approximate weight I wanted to end up and her response was really kind,…

This is what I would like to find.

Congratulations Megan!

Nice to see your smile getting progressively larger as your body shrinks. Keep up your determination!!!

What helped me ten years ago was setting a weight and fitness goal. I committed to a vacation hiking trip with my brother 4-5 months in advance and knew I had to train for it and that I would have an easier time the more fit and lighter in weight I was. I got about four pounds from my goal weight and did some good training…

Honestly, it is me three years ago at my sister's bridal shower, a few pounds and an extra chin lighter. Have not taken too many photos since then as they don't seem to look like me. I wear glasses now.

How awful. There is no reason to be mean and ugly to others like the comments you were receiving. Steer clear of these people on and offline.

I wasn't true to myself, didn't behave or eat true to myself and ended up here, chubby but wiser!

Opposite stereotype below. When I traveled outside of the rural area of cornfields and dairy farms of home, people would ask where I was from and I would answer "Washington State". Then, they presumed the answer to the next question and could not get past it. Next question/STATEMENT was;"Oh, so you work for the…
