  • When I lived in NYC, it would annoy me to be waiting in a bus line next to a smoker and be hit in the face with second hand smoke for the 20-30 minute wait. Numerous times I even offered to hold their place in line, and they refused to step back even a few feet, resulting in me then having to ask someone else to hold my…
  • I'm nearly 20 lbs down now, and I still don't SEE it, but my clothing is all hanging off of me, and I received a few comments. I usually don't notice the difference until about 30 lbs, but I am very critical of myself.
  • I'm on day 4 of ETL (visiting my parents for the week), and day 2 I felt like crap. I think a lot of it was the caffeine withdrawals. I just ate my food, didn't make any attempt to work out, and went to bed early. It goes away.
  • Both of my parents (in their 70s) have been doing Eat to Live for about 3 months now. My Dad has lost 50 lbs and no longer needs hypertension medication. My mom went from a size 6 to a 4. I'm visiting them for the week, and am eating the way they do, and it is REALLY tasty food. I did what I consider a similar…
  • My husband was 32 when we married, and is an absolutely wonderful guy. We met when we were 18 and were friends and off/on dated in our early 20s.

Bring along a snack to eat on the way home too, such as a little baggie of almonds or apple slices. If you MUST hit the drive through, get a beverage…

  • My SO helps cook and does the majority of the grocery shopping. I'm a nursing student and I work part time, so he does everything in his power to make sure I have the food I need in the house. He also stopped buying things like ice cream and cookies, knowing they are my trigger foods. When he wants something junky to eat,…
  • People who use "segway" instead of "segue." Segway is the trademarked name of a personal transportation device with two wheels. A segue is a smooth transition from one thing to another. Also, "irregardless" makes my toes curl.
  • You can add me as well! My husband and I had our small civil ceremony in July, but the ceremony and reception is going to be in October, so I'm hoping to use that to jump start my motivation. =)
  • Heya. I'm an Austinite living in San Antonio now!
  • I just turned 30 and am really looking forward to being healthy and breaking out of the pattern I fell into in my 20s of yo-yo dieting.
  • I have a crap ton of songs from Zumba on my iPod, and Robyn. Robyn makes me run so much faster for some reason.
