  • Sunwarrior Classic Protein - Natural. Tastes better than Garden of Life, but I do love the ingredients in GOL
  • Dior Hydralife BB Cream Aloe Vera Gel! - I keep a mini tube with me literally everywhere I go Maybelline Baby Lips lip balm Stila In the Light Palette (I like it better than UD Naked) I need a new mascara though...
  • First, I would cut the cream+sugar and the salad dressing I eat a lot of Egg Whites Nuts (only a handful!) + avocado + beans TONS (i mean mass amounts) of veggies Grilled Chicken, fish I've also noticed that I don't tend to eat a lot of dairy products (butter, cheese, yogurt) or starchy foods. I eat bread/noodles in small…
  • @mineboy 160...15%?? gosh I'm terrible at these
  • Running. I'm not talking about the intense HIIT pounding it out kind of running though - more like a slow jog, preferably outside, with some good, relaxing music (: Also therapy helped me out a ton too. All I can say is if you are considering medication, please be careful with benzos. If you are prone to addiction (I have…
  • Ugh I know how annoying knee issues are! Lateral meniscus repair + removal surgery in both my knees 15 months ago = not fun. I highly recommend you go speak with your doctor before pushing your knees too far. If you're doing HIIT on the treadmill, try doing a slower pace (6-7mph) for a longer time, at least for now.…
  • congrats on your weight loss so far!! that's amazing
  • I can't buy a jar of peanut butter or a box of breakfast cereal, ever. cause I will finish it in one sitting, for sure! Also, I don't trust myself with Cheez-its, potato chips, or nutella so I haven't had those in a while
  • Tea, gum, kombucha!
  • A couple of months ago I was restricting to <500kcal. What I did: I upped my intake by 200kcal every week until I got to 2000kcal, and made sure to workout on a regular basis (cardio + weights), and eating back my exercise calories. I seriously damaged my metabolism, but now I'm the fittest, healthiest I've ever been and…
  • Hmm I'm not sure this would fit into your situation, but if I want the alcohol to hit me pretty hard without drinking away half my calories, I usually go on an empty stomach. And stick with shots. If I keep drinking TONS of water throughout the night, my morning after isn't bad at all. I usually also pack a pre-portioned…
  • Yes! - Upped my daily net kcal to 1400+ - Not completely banning any food. If I want it, I'll plan it out and fit it into my intake. I NEVER thought I could practice moderation but it has stopped my binges completely and I feel so much more in control - 5-6 small meals a day - Eat every 2-3 hours - Focus not just on…
  • Bagels get a pretty bad rep just cause they so much denser than a regular slice of bread, making them calorie-heavy. If it's a 100% whole wheat bagel, and it fits into your calories/macros then I say go for it! Bagels are one of my absolute favorite foods :D

  • Hmm I'm not sure I can offer much advice but I used to be a diet soda addict (3L EVERYDAY). I cut out as much diet soda as I could starting last month (maybe have 2 cans a week, max), and it's honestly one of the best decisions I've ever made. Whenever I drink it now, I get stomach pains, headaches, dizziness, and I can…
  • So inspiring, you look amazing!! I love your figure
  • I've had trouble controlling binge-eating in the past, so I always make sure I plan out my "cheat" days very carefully the night before. I think they're great - it helps with cravings, I never feel deprived, and I'm always enjoying the foods that I love! You should never feel restricted/deprived...it's mentally so much…
  • No, I don't think so at all. I'm 5'5" and weigh 122lbs EXACTLY and people don't consider me fat at all (nor do I)... I'm focusing now on gaining more muscle, reducing my body fat and just getting fit/healthy. EDIT: I just saw your post saying that you grew up in Asia. I spent 4 years of my youth in Asia too, and yes, the…
  • Protein (: I always have these: nuts, chicken breast, hard-boiled egg whites, broccoli, plain greek yoghurt...I usually have a very busy schedule without too much time to eat so these can be a life-saver to get me through the day!
  • Hi I'm 18, going to be a sophomore dual-degree with English and Business! Trying to lose the last 10 lbs and gain some muscle - feel free to add! (:
  • 18 here! just starting out too (:
  • I used to be downright addicted to binging at night but I've finally learned to get in under control. This is what helped me: 1) Eat small meals every 2-3 hours. I never noticed how sensitive my blood sugar is until I tried this 2) Make sure you're eating enough calories! The cravings at night happened when I was on…
  • Under Armor and Moving Comfort for sure - I'm a DD and investing in a good sports bra is a definite must!! The band should be tight but be careful that it's not TOO tight to the point where you have trouble breathing during intense cardio and/or get back pain
  • It really does have to do with your genetics/body type - at my lowest weight (116lbs, 5'5") I wore a 32DD. They did get a bit smaller as I lost weight but because the rest of my body was getting smaller too, they still looked proportionately big if that makes sense?
  • I'm almost 19 (close enough?) 5'5" HW: 135 CW: 122 UGW: 112
  • I picked up smoking when I was 11 - I'm 18 now, and I've been 6 months cig free. Just keep sticking to it - I gave myself rewards everytime I reached a goal (cut down to 3/4 a pack for 1 month, 1/2 for another month, etc.) and it was also around that time I started to seriously work out/eat clean. Exercise definitely…
  • I'm 5'5 and I'm 122lbs now. My goal weight is 115lbs - originally, I wanted to get down to 112, but I don't know if that's possible if I keep wanting to gain muscle!
