Eh. DOMS don't do anything but build muscle under fat, IF you don't do anything with your diet and round out your overall health program. I've seen too many bros at the gym that are just bulky with no muscle definition because they "lift heavy", don't do cardio, then eat crap afterwards. That's not a resolution. That's…

Well, while I could be disappointed that I'm excluded from searches based on on my "body type", I don't wanna deal with those dudes anyways. It's cool. I guess all one can do is post real pictures of themselves. I'm pretty sure guys can figure it out for themselves. IMHO, my body is pretty fly, yo! :)

Hilarious!!

7 minute workout- google search and it'll come up Gorilla Workout- a free app that gives you daily exercises Any 30 day challenge- again, Google search and you'll find a variety of workouts I don't use any gym equipment whatsoever and I get some killer workouts using the above. Sometimes, I'll modify them to give myself an…

I'm having the same issue as you- I'll be traveling the next 3 weeks for work, and my schedule is *tight*, as in early mornings to late nights. I've been researching healthy snacks to have on me while I'm working all day and night. Most suggestions involve dried fruit (too high in sugar), "health" bars (usually loaded with…

Forgot to add my name: kmyers4545 DOH!

Hi all! I've lost 20lbs so far and have 60 more to go! Please feel free to add me! I need all the support i can get! Thanks! ~Kim

I think Gap has a curvy line of jeans. I straight up alter my jeans. If you can't sew, you can take them to a seamstress and have them put in darts in the back. Sucks to have to pay more money, but until the fashion industry adjusts its sizing, we're stuck with altering our clothes or wearing lycra or no pants at all :)

My moment was when I went to the hospital for sever stress ans anxiety. Blood test results came in and the doctor said I was in the pre-diabetic range. Diabetes runs on both sides of my family and both my parents have it. I look at how sick and miserable they are at such a young age, and it freaks me out. I do not want to…

Yeah I've totally dropped like 5 lbs in a couple days after "that" time of the month. Blooooat. I think it still counts! :D

Amazeballs! That is my goal! I'm at 211 and my goal weight is 155! It can be done! Woooooooo!!! *applause*

Girrrrrrl. Firstly, welcome back! Secondly, I'm pretty sure a vast majority of folks, including myself, have been exactly where you are right now. The important thing is that you are here NOW and you are reaching out for support. You will get it! "Fall seven times, get up eight." - Japanese proverb YOU CAN DO EEET!! We're…

Thank you all! I love all the support- feeling not so alone. I certainly appreciate the suggestions. I have to break the cycle and force myself outside. Being alone in a new city doesn't help with this, but yeah, gotta put the big girl pants on, make like a Nike swoosh, and just do it. Or get therapy. Something's gotta…

Yep, I totally realise this, just having a hard time figuring out a strategy to avoid being home with wine. It's not always easy. But thanks for the tough love :)

I'm just starting out, too. I'm about 2 months in. I used to beat myself up when I didn't lose the weight fast enough, or when I cheated. Now, I focus on being consistent about logging in. I think logging in consistently to watch your eating habits is a great way to start. Then you can sloooowly start to modify your eating…
-
That was a great article- especially reminding me to not get obsessed with the minutae. As for consistency, yes, I think I need to commit more to logging daily. It's just easy when life gets in the way, BUT I know that's not an excuse. As for the 800 calorie day, I was really sick (but I still logged! yay for me!). Trust…

Girl. I'm so in the same boat. I get super gung ho, lose weight, then yo-yo back up. I fractured my ankle last March and I've ballooned back up past my heaviest weight *sigh*. I have Hypothyroidism which makes things a little tougher as well. I have talked to my doctor about it. He said some people just have it harder…
