I almost always go over my sugar too but I eat a lot of fruit during the day. I dont worry about it because the way your body handles and breaks down natural sugars found in fruits and diary is different than refined sugars. Your body breaks down refined sugars rapidly and increases your blood glucose very fast and tries…

Im adding you all right now :)

I also deal with the short struggle. I am only 4'11 and was up to 160 pounds after having my children which put me in the "obese" category by my BMI. I have some health issues and just feel absolutely miserable at this weight. I started my diet/exercise routine about 3 weeks ago and I am feeling amazing! I am losing about…

I have the same problem. I am never hungry- I have to remind myself to eat. Just a few days ago, I looked at the clock and realized I had gone over 8/9 hours without eating anything. My calories are always around 800-1000. I started eating natural peanut butter on pretzels or bananas as a snack because its a quick 200-300…

Thanks everyone! I accepted/sent requests to you all. I have been at this a week and I believe I'v lost a pound or two. I remember doing low carb a couple years ago and I lost nothing for 10 or 12 days and then one morning had a 4 pound loss. Stick to it :)

Yes, I struggled with this too. I have two children (almost 3 and 1). At first, I bought at home workout videos. I bought Jillian Michaels 30 day shred because it is only 20 minutes everyday and I would do it when they went to sleep. But now that I am in nursing school, I hit the gym for 45 minutes after my last class and…

Guilty, hahah. Loved this :)

Do exercises you feel comfortable with. Walking short distances, sit in a chair and do arm punches and leg movements, join a pool if you can. If you do small exercises everyday you will get stronger with time and be able to advance.

I had a horrible addiction to sugar. I would get up and eat donuts, drink pop throughout the day, snack on candy all day. Two weeks ago, I gave up all sugar! The first few days I had really bad headaches, mood swings, and could not sleep. But now, I feel great! I am losing weight and I have so much energy. The last couple…

My husband quit smoking almost four months ago and has put on 15 pounds so far. Your lungs are thanking you! Good luck to all of you in your weight loss journey!

I do not work third shift but my husband does and I feel for you. I could not imagine dieting and trying to work out while working all night. My husband has tried to go to the gym before and after work and he just can not get on a good schedule. The best thing I have done for him is make healthy meals ahead of time. When…

I will eat healthy, exercise and diet all day just to consume a million calories and grams of sugar at night. I would give in to my cravings, eat a ton of junk before I went to bed, and then be mad at myself for wasting that whole day of exercising because I mostly eat sugar late at night. Well I have successfully had no…

You have many things on your plate, lol! I have two children, 3 and 1. They keep me very busy. I am in nursing school full time and then come home to playing, cleaning ,and cooking for my hubby. There is just not enough time in a day!

I bought the 30 day shred yesterday at Walmart for around $9-$10. Today was the second day doing it and my legs were burning so much! I love that it is only 20 minutes a day.

I drink coffee every morning with one pack of splenda. I could not diet and give up my coffee!

I can relate to your story! I am only 4'11 so being 150 pounds makes me feel miserable! I am in nursing school full time and have two young children. I will get stressed before tests and exams and do nothing but study and eat all night long. I am carrying around fruit and vegetables at school now and doing home workout…

I feel like that too! I will exercise and diet all day so I can eat candy before I go to bed. So I am not losing weight, just maintaining. The first day I started dieting again, I couldnt even stand it so I had a fun size bag of M&M's!

Of course fruits and vegetables will be a good choice, I also eat many many beans and nuts!
