If most of your bulkier goods are dry goods, order that from Amazon or other grocery delivery to be shipped straight to you. Then use your backpack to pick up the perishable essentials, plus maybe one more bag, and perhaps look into uber or a taxi, or carpooling.

I think I screwed up a couple of weeks of this, looking back at my log. The math doesn't match up, probably because I was trying to remember numbers hours later. Anyway... here we go to fix it and weighing in a day early. W1: 0 (I counted the wrong week as week one. That explains my math I guess) W2: -4 W3: -3.4 W4: -3.6…

I weigh myself almost everyday because it's a good indication, to me, of how my body responds to certain things. When I walk more or do a LOT of bodyweight exercises, I retain about X number of pounds of water weight; during my cycle, I lose X from bloat, etc. I don't take it as a good or a bad. It's on a downward trend,…

I lost 30 pounds playing just dance and eating well before and during my pregnancy. It's basic cardio that can be done in short spurts, if you do the harder songs -- good for people who only have 30 minutes to workout, don't have a gym and can't go outside to workout.

Well, I like people to generally follow social rules of polite behavior, so no. Weight might not be such a taboo thing to discuss if people could discuss it politely, but they rarely do.

Soooo I am way too into tacos. Here are some of my faves... Skirt steak + pico de gallo + cilantro + light sour cream + refried beans. I use less than a tbsp of beans per taco and only 1 tbsp of sour cream per taco! Fish tacos: I don't batter fry. tilapia + corn + red bell pepper sauteed together with just a bit of oil and…

I have had colds I could exercise through and colds I couldn't. Take it easy and don't exercise if your symptoms are below your neck or are making it too hard to breathe.

Eat only up to half of your exercise cals back, and if you're having trouble meeting calorie goals, add healthy fats like nuts and olive oil. That will get you there.

Mine is too little to be a drill instructor, but she lays under me on my yoga mat while I'm planking... It's why I can hold a plank for so long. Can't drop on her! She also pretends to exercise next to me. Sometimes I give her fake exercises to do along with me. She's only three but she gets into it, haha

My October goals are to finish my squat challenge and drop another 5-7 lbs. I think it's doable.

I prepack my food even though I'm at home all day because it helps me stay on track. Sometimes it's a Greek salad with tuna and a sweet potato on the side, sometimes it's a turkey sandwich with chips and carrots, sometimes it's a stir fry. Today is stir fry with chicken, snow peas and broccoli, with some chips and salsa…

I'm good at harry potter, I wouldn't mind helping. Feel free to message! :)

Buy masking tape at store, date and name everything you have in the fridge, and get an emergency pack of nuts or beef jerky and keep them hidden in your room. I think your family is being a bunch of jerks and that really sucks, and I'd be making someone go out and get me more food or drive me to get it.

1/2 c pistachios shells on (160) + clementine (35) + hummus + cucumbers. That should keep you full and depending on the hummus, be around 250-300 cals.

Baby greens, chicken, tuna

Is nugget like sprouts? It looks like it, but the closest one to me is in Vacaville and no way am I driving that far to find out. Trader joes is comparable to fresh & easy, both are very cheap compared to my local safeway or raleys when it comes to certain things.

Old navy, target, and I have some zella pants from nordstrom. Depending on your size you might be able to squeeze into target and old navy xxl pants/tops, I have a pair of old navy compression pants that are xxl and fit me well even though I normally wear like a 2x in ON workout clothes, same for targets C9 pants.

Four, plus three workout tops with built ins. Gets me through a week!

I'm doing a squat challenge and using a heart rate monitor, those are new. I was getting too obsessive with the fitbit...

Just joined, been sick this week. 9/26 1.5/100 I have some catching up to do! Better get it done over the weekend.

I have fifty billion food allergies. I make a lot of meals where things can be subbed/switched. Ex: I have a dairy allergy. I buy all the things for tacos that my family likes, leave off the dairy and add sauces. If someone was doing low carb in my house, they could use low carb tortillas, corn tortillas or lettuce wraps,…

Broke my plateau this morning! I don't think I've ever been so happy on the scale! Usually I give up what I'm doing during plateaus but I did not give up this time...

Congrats!!!

You added me already but I'm posting for more friends. Why not, I could use more encouragement. ????

I'm going through this right now and guess what... I'm bigger than you! But I can feel my body changing and I'm putting my all into workouts until I break through. It's going to happen for me and you! Sorry about the diet bet though, ugh!

If you're shopping at kroger, also buy fuel from there. Once you spend over a certain amount per month, they send you custom coupons, make sure your address is correct in your plus card membership info (you can log in on kroger.com) There are also some coupons for organics and fresh foods online. Harder to find, but they…

I just moved from Ohio to California, I'd pretty much sell my soul for kroger prices again! That said... Have you looked into the website budget bytes? She has great recipes for low prices. And you don't have to make huge dinners, if that's where your costs add up. This time of year, apples are suuuuper cheap (especially…
