I have anxiety. But working out wears me out so I can fall asleep without medication, and the goals distract me pretty nicely.

I'm extremely adamant about losing weight and nothing will stop me. I may have broken/sprained/really injured my toe last night and it still hurts today. :( My paycheck from my first week at my new job was way more than I was expecting.

Ohhhh yes. Last minute Farmer's Market steals. They're always so amazing, just because no one wants to load everything back up if they don't have to.

First of all... GIVE YOURSELF A HUGE REWARD FOR FEELING SO GREAT AND COMING SO FAR! :) Take a nice trip or vacation where nothing matters. Relaaaaaaaaaaaax. And when you get back to the real world, start up again. Give yourself plans. Plan rewards for yourself for each pound lost, even if its as simple as an ice cream…

How to break a McDonald's habit quick: Work for one week minimum at McDonald's. You'll never want it again. I worked there for a month, and I avoid it at all costs just because I got tired of smelling the food, having to make it, and just generally being surrounded by it. That, and the pay and hours sucked. So, maybe I…

It scares me a bit, because I've bought so much plus sized, and generally bigger clothing in these last few years, and cant really afford to buy new clothes... So I'm trying to go at this slowly, I guess.

Like I said in my last post, yeah, you can get a bag of chips for a dollar. But those chips are snacky food that you'll be going back and forth to all day, and if your household is anything like mine, that big family sized bag of chips will be gone in 2 days. The pound of broccoli, for the extra $0.25, will serve as a…

I understand the depression and the PTSD. I have both as well, and although its such a struggle some days, I've noticed with my new job that when I'm actually up and doing things and working and am distracted, I ultimately feel in such a better mood. I still get caught up in little bouts, but keeping a common goal and…

Good luck! my boyfriend isn't showing too much interest in doing anything together as far as getting healthy, but he respects my choices for healthier meals, and that I want to be more active. He won't join me in the biking or roller blading, unless the blading is done in a rink. His balance isn't the best. But he'll take…

You look absolutely amazing! I love your hair (in both photos!) and that corset is to DIE FOR.

Just joined the site last night, and starting to get healthy! :D Still working out which of the planned goals here would be best for me. :P Feel free to add me!

The eight hour shifts I'm on my feet at work for. However, they're usually pretty lax and mostly just standing around because I work an evening shift in a coffee shop most of the time. However, when I'm scheduled for morning shifts, I plan to put those in the log... because those are crazy and I'm moving much faster than…

Yeah. :) I've been really careful about gaining weight at school. I knew there was a high chance I would, but at the same time, I had entirely cut fast food out of my diet, since I had no car last year. which, i think helped. I actually lost a bit of weight living on campus last year. No clue how! Probably from walking so…

Unfortunately, my school REQUIRES that if I live on campus in the dorms, I have a meal-plan. However, that meal plan is split up in three different levels with cafeteria visits and "dining dollars". Cafeteria visits are a swipe of a card to get into the "all-you-can-eat" cafeteria meals. the dining dollars are used like…

We have a fairly small fridge, but I'm hoping that this year, my roommate and I will do our food shopping together so that we can share most of the food. She's already lost a bunch of weight and is very healthy, so having the same types of things that she does I'm sure can't hurt. We have a microwave, and that's about it.…

My mother does weird things.. Any time I'm hesitant to eat much, or eat healthy food, or try to exercise I get the "hahaha! Are you on a diet? Are you trying to lose weight"?" Any time I have a less healthy snack or lay around the house I get a "you really should eat healthier. How many calories are in that? Get up and go…

My friend/roommate went biking with her father for various distances almost every day for the past year, and along with eating healthy and right, I believe she said she's dropped about 40 pounds. Their rides started off with short distances, and then eventually they were biking to somewhere that was 15 miles away. It got…

sounds like I have a new breakfast plan.

Although exercise helps, you cannot hold anything against someone for wanting a day or two of doing absolutely nothing to be in pain, feel like a ball of poop, and be completely hormonal. Its not even the cramps for me sometimes. Its just the "I do not want to move or do anything I hate the world and the world hates me"…
