I highly suggest focusing on weights for best results :) I usually do about 20 minutes on the stair master and then alternate between arms and legs each day and I go as heavy as possible. Weight seshes usually last around 30 minutes for me so I'm there at total of 50 minutes or so!

I'm a little shorter (5'2) but I eat 1800-2000 to lose about 0.5-1 pound a week. I exercise about an hour a day, 6 days a week.

Less than 1500 calories is extremely low for an "extreme athlete." I don't think your body wants to lose anymore weight.

Thanks guys. I think @JeromeBarry1 and @Christine_72 are right.... I didn't realize how many carbs I'm actually eating (compared to others). At the same time though, it's a healthy amount. It's recommended to eat 45-65% of your daily caloric intake as carbohydrates, and I fall right in there. Also, I love carbs, haha. If I…

I've only tried Arctic Zero and it was icy and terrible, so I've been turned off to all those low calorie brands. But if many of you say it's good, and creamy, maybe I'll have to give it a shot!

I was vegan for 8 months. I've never in my life loved meat as much as I have since ending veganism. To this day I love it. I never used to until I started craving it on a vegan diet. I fully support the vegan lifestyle, but I rarely felt satisfied on it. I thought I'd lose weight and be in optimal health when on the…

Haha, me too! I don't know what it is. I'm kind of thinking it's because: winter, I can't overeat or my jeans are no longer going to button. Summer, I'm in loose clothing so bring on the beer and bbq, I don't have to worry about my clothes not fitting! Or, maybe it's because I'm just so happy around the holidays I don't…

Eat whatever baked goods, sweets, and rich foods that I want while staying within my daily caloric intake. :) No restriction over here, I ain't missin out! But it's all about mindful eating; naturally, I pick foods that make my body feel good, aka healthy foods, but sometimes I feel like a pumpkin spice latte or eggnog or…

Well, I've been binging 1-2x per week so I'm just maintaining my weight right now. I'm trying to get through a week without binging so I can accurately see if I'm losing on the amount of calories I'm eating. I do get plenty of sleep (7-9 hours most nights). I definitely don't want to reduce my exercise since I just love it…

Stop binge eating

Woah. Ok, you're eating far too little everyday... that's really unhealthy. Are you full off the amount you're eating? A 2,500 calorie day was good for your body and your metabolism! I'm not sure of your current age, weight, and exercise habits, so I can't say what your daily caloric intake should be, but I can assure you…

I've taken this twice in the past and once I got introverted, once I got extroverted. Ha, this time I got: INFJ Introvert(3%) iNtuitive(19%) Feeling(41%) Judging(19%) You have marginal or no preference of Introversion over Extraversion (3%) You have slight preference of Intuition over Sensing (19%) You have moderate…

If you want to and have the time, do it. This summer I hiked half of the PCT in which I was backpacking for 10 hours a day everyday. So, my personal opinion is unless you injure yourself, there's no such thing as too much exercise :)

You're making me nervous- I start nursing school on Oct 4 and I have a history of emotional eating (stress eating, particularly). I'm trying to lose 10 pounds, but I'm worried I will end up gaining weight. When I used to be in school, I'd go for a quick run every morning. I would sometimes study on the treadmill or…

I usually eat dinner around 6-7 and try to go to bed 11pm-12. I'm always starving before bed, but try to stop eating at dinner. :|

All Noosa yogurt... my friend told me it was the best, I tried it, and it became my new favorite yogurt in the first bite. I especially like the coconut, chai, and pumpkin flavors. Also, Trader Joe's pumpkin cream cheese!

That happens to me after a week or two of self control. It gets exhausting and I get in "screw it!" mode. One day of enjoying myself usually gets it out of my system and I can get back on track the next day :) you did great all month, you deserve it!

I'm very active on here, feel free to add me :)

Hey! I'm 25, been on here for quite some time, but still working at it :) I will add you!

I eat at or just below 2,000 calories a day. Feel free to add me!

Work- Rihanna. Guilty pleasure. Lose yourself- Eminem. Rap in general. Makes me feel like a baller/badass which makes me work harder. ;)

This girl! Ugh, something about the weekend vibe and as you said- freedom- makes me lose all control and I'm just like, woooo, time to relax and go out with friends and do whatever the heck I want! A few things I'd suggest that help for me though is continuing with exercise on the weekends. I'll sleep in a little, wake up…

I just bought some pumpkin bagels and some pumpkin cream cheese from Trader Joes :) Sooo good! My favorite time of year

Goals are best accomplished with intrinsic motivation- when you're doing it for internal rewards, such as having more energy, getting better sleep, being more physically comfortable, etc. Research suggests that most people do not stick with goals if they're doing it for an external reward, such as winning a bet, rewarding…

Me. I was diagnosed with anorexia 9 years ago and following came the binge eating.... its never fully stopped since. It's usually caused by emotional reasons (boredom, loneliness, stress mainly). I know when a binge is coming on, and I've TRIED occupying myself with other things, but it's like something takes over me and…

5'2, 120 pounds, size 2. Goal: 112lbs

I understand where you're coming from... you feel good off of 1700 calories, if not slightly hungry, and so you don't want to lower your intake further. I've been there, but for me it was 2,000 calories. And for me, that resulted in very slow weight loss. But that was ok with me, because I want to feel good, not be hungry,…

If skipping breakfast works for you, then I say do it! I'm not hungry right when I wake up either and so I wait till I am hungry. Plus, fasting can be beneficial for weight loss. 12-16 hour fasts cause gluconeogenesis to occur (the making of new glucose when your body runs out) which uses ATP and thus uses energy…

I haven't purposely banned any foods because I don't believe in deprivation, but I subconsciously ban foods. Like, I tend to avoid foods that aren't filling and those that I know I'll be hungry an hour after eating them. These include cereal, pasta, bread, etc... These are also the foods I'm tempted to binge on. I wish I…

I used to be vegan and yes, I would still eat these products... they don't actually contain the egg. It means the facility may use eggs in other products and a small amount MAY have come in contact with this food. This is more for people with severe allergies to be concerned about.
