First off CONGRATS! :) When you and your healthcare professional think you are at a healthy weight that you want to maintain, things get a lot easier. Just eat more than you were when you were dieting. Maybe 1900-2000 calories a day to maintain. Stay active. Eat lots of good fats. If you feel healthy, I think it is…

The Smart Pop 100 calorie kettle corn is magnificent! I also love a light string cheese & almonds... A piece of 35 cal bread with a little PB and honey....Homemade trail mix (almonds, walnuts, raisins, pretzels). :)

and yes- it could be mono or a number or things. Who knows what I pick up at work. (I work in a nursing home..)

My instincts really seem to tell me that I have some sort of virus or something (like mono...), but I'm not sure if that's the case. Will be seeing my doctor this week. Might also be due to my wisdom teeth growing in. I have 3 partially impacted wisdom teeth, and I am going to the oral surgeon tomorrow. Maybe infection…

I'm 20 too. I am a double major in elementary and special education! I also went to community college and have just transfered. I've gained about 30-40 lbs since I started college. I totally understand!

I won the FFA state dairy judging competition in my state in high school. Yes...just like napoleon dynamite...and YES "the cow DID get into an onion patch"

Everyone is going to bash Dr. Oz on this post- do your own research & decide. Dr. Oz has some great ideas and tips, but make sure you ask your real Doctor first.

I hate hate hate exercise too. By the time I get off school, work, and everything, I JUST WANNA REST. But again...exercise really helps you build muscle and lose more weight than without it.

I am not a big yogurt fan either. I love crunchy-fatty things, and it is always hard for me to fit healthy yogurt into my diet and snacks. I use PLAIN greek yogurt for a lot of things. Here's some of my fave snacks using yogurt: Greek yogurt veggie/chip dip: Greek yogurt (plain) + spices= chip/veggie dip! Add ranch…

Lucky...I only eat organic beef...spinach and kale if I can. Everything else is so expensive. I know it is worth it but it LITERALLY cannot afford it. It is hard enough to buy CHEAP grocceries!

It has a good information. I was also under the impression that it was extremely biased against many farmers in America. Many of them have no choice other than to sacrifice their organic values and follow what the government wants them to do. I love living in a rural area, and my whole family consists of farmers coming…

PLEASE watch Food Inc. I would love to discuss everyone's thoughts on it.

POPCORN. get 100 calorie packs of them for the microwave. I also like string cheese (50 calorie kind), and I LOVE LOVE LOVE CRISPY BAKED GARBANZO BEANS (chickpeas) so good. google a recipe. they are great and so good for you

I never really thought of that, but it is so true. At least you live in America where everyone is tall and fat! Also.... It is better to be tall and fat than short and fat like me! I can gain like 5 lbs and look like 50 lbs heavier. ANNOYING!

Adding to this....it is kid and husband friendly...Kids won't really like a taco salad with gross ground turkey lol

Nutella is basically sugar sugar sugar and oil. Peanut butter is way less sweet and has protein. Don't buy nutella! It is TERRIBLE for you. Also, it is expensive, and SUPER SUPER SUPER sweet. So if you are used to PB you won't like it so much. It is so sweet it hurts my fillings :\

I do wii Just Dance 4. It is pretty fun, and you really don't notice how long you are playing. It isn't very intense though! But still a great workout and fun.

Holy crap you guys are so tall. I'm only 5'2" :( Good luck everyone!

Sorry people...Tubes of meat are really just pre-portioned packaged ground meat from walmart. It's like a pound or so? It's a lot cheaper to buy them than flats of meat. Also, I hate plain ground turkey. Mixing it with beef gives that beef flavor that I am used to, but the turkey cuts out a lot of fat & is really cheap.

Everybody took this post really way too seriously. The point was to help visualize where all that fat is going. So everyone needs to stop being a brat and be a little more supportive. LAST TIME I'm posting anything interesting. Thanks for ruining it! :)

Then ask your doctor about it if you think I'm making it up? The point is...Keep eating healthy...

OMG really guys?! Even though Dr. Oz is a quack it is literally right in front of you. It is disgusting to see how unhealthy it is to be overweight! The point is not that I am like obsessing over Dr. Oz or something, but look at the crap that is stuffed into your body. And I'm not sure why everyone thinks he is a quack.…

Thanks! I am seriously a peanutbutter JUNKIE. I always eat if for snacks & breakfast usually every day and a low cal version would be great. :)

I wasn't sure why the pic isn't showing up...Just follow the link

I can't wait to be a senior in college! Light at the end of the tunnel!!! I really want to be fit for when I go in for that first interview. It is will be a huge confidence boost.

YES! This is great. So glad you worked it out. It is sad to see how many people split up or divorce because they just don't want to work it out. My parents have always been a great example of that. Even though their marriage has a lot of issues sometimes, they always work it out! GREAT. Love this.

SO glad you posted this. I use tea in smoothies in place of water or milk. You could make an apple pie smoothie! Just put in blender; some apple slices, greek yogurt, ice, a banana, and your tea! It'll be great and easy.

Also, I'm a huge control freak...Not as much now, but it used to be alot worse. My boyfriend would get so fed up with it. I would get insecure if he went to the gym, and I wouldn't want him to go because he might meet a better girl. A lot of my control issues come from issues I had growing up, and I think this might be…

Men often encourage their spouse to eat more or aren't so supportive because they don't want other men to look at their woman! It is a jealously/insecure type of thing. OR He could honestly just not like seeing you struggle with weight loss. Many times I would get really upset because I ate too much or I just couldn't get…

Chocolate cake mix tasted a little funny when I tried it BUT I used the pumpkin puree with spices already in it. Do plain pumpkin and some dark chocolate chips! YUM
