I am back at school now, so I am getting back on track with my eating and working out! Looking forward to re-starting :)

I didn't go home for Easter, so I avoided that problem for now. It also helps that I can't have ANY Easter chocolate until we figure out what my allergy is. I am also missing pastries and ice cream. Not with my hardest exams right after. I forgot to post because I was studying haha sorry. The first two exams (and my…

I won my diet bet! I lost 6.8 lbs in the last 4 weeks :D So stoked! I am starting a new one soon, the competition keeps me motivated!

Thanks! I already went and got a lost of ingredients (my mom suggested the same thing lol).

So, just an update because I am really at a loss right now. On Thursday night, I ate a catered dinner and a cookie. After the cookie, I noticed my tongue was tingling. As an emergency responder for my university, I immediately told my friends I was having an allergic reaction (never had one before in my 28 years!). By the…

So I did it you guys! I got over my fear and went to the gym at 10pm last night and no one was there. So I was free to experiment with the machines and got a full body work out in. The have instructions on them so they are easy to figure out. I think I found a new thing that I love to do <3

IF is intermittent fasting. Personally, I follow 16:8. Essentially, I only eat from noon-8pm which is an 8 hour eating window. I fast each day (mostly at nigh while I sleep) for 16 hours.

For me, its juice! I L-O-V-E juice! This is a great idea! I will give up juice for the week! So stoked that my weigh in today shows I have lost 3.8 lbs this past week. Most of it will be water weight because I didn't watch what I ate during Reading Week, but a loss is a loss!

This is my first time trying it, so I don't have an opinion of it overall other than it has kept me motivated. I joined a game (paid $34) and have to lose 4% of my starting weight. You do an official weigh in and weigh out that is looked at by a referee/host thru pictures. If 50% of the people don't lose their 4% you do,…

I'm actually being very diligent because I joined a DietBet! It is keeping me accountable. I also just finished midterms, so the stress of that is gone.

Thanks! I graduate April 2018!

Potato soup <3 My work used to have one that was a "loaded" baked potato soup. It was essentially a creamy potato soup with bacon and cheese in it, then it was topped with cheddar cheese and green onions. I'll have to take a look, because a substitute would be nice!

That sucks! I live in Ontario, but I lived away from town (out in the forest haha) we lost power (and as such heat and water) for 2 weeks. It sucked, but at least we were able to go to town for food etc. Good luck, stay warm!

I agree that it is really big haha. But I know it will slow down (it has over the last week or so).

I stuck to my calorie goal all last week! I am aiming to continue this trend. I have also logged in for like 32ish days in a row, which is a personal best :) Also, I weighed 178 lbs around Christmas and now weigh 165 lbs. Granted, some of it is water weight, I know that some of it is not. I take it lol.

I weigh myself daily (unless I had an event etc. the day before). I only track the weight change on Sundays as well.

I didn't have any progress weight loss wise this week, however I did go to two Zumba classes and was able to try out my new Polar FT4 HRM! I had a blast at Zumba and am so excited that it actually fits into my schedule this week! My goals for the week are to go to a minimum of 2 Zumba classes this week (out of 3) and eat…

That's awesome. I find that having a menu plan when I am really stressed and short on time (midterms/exams). I actually prep meals for the whole week during these times! I am so stoked for the new year. I received a Gear Fit 2 for the holidays and my Polar FT4 with chest strap just came in! I also don't have any conflicts…

Lol, I just replied to you on the other forum! I am glad it is working for you :)

I double checked and it is set so that anyone with the link can edit. I'm not a computer person, sorry! Hopefully it will resolve. Are you using your phone or an actual computer?

Let me know if you are still having problems!

Added. Where you on your computer when you tried to edit it? Sometimes phones are finicky. Everyone else has been adding there info, so I am at a loss as why it won't let you lol

This looks awesome! Well done :)

No problem! Thanks for sticking the challenge out :) I didn't lose as much as I wanted either (all that holiday cooking! yum lol). You should stick around for the Summer Challenge!

This week has been much better for me stress-wise as exams are done *happy dance*. However, I am in charge of baking which can be problematic haha. I am trying my best to not overeat on only treats and neglect actual healthy food!

I finished finals partway thru last week! Still recovering haha. So far, I have the marks for all except one and have done very well :)

Thanks! Haha, I have a lot of tough ones, including Pharmacy which just might kill me.
