Looking for new motivational friends too :blush:

I was a 36DD before and still wear a 36DD but before e I filled it all the way out and now it just fits better into a DD. There is just some loose skin when I lay down, not when I stand up or anything

Yesss, I need more friends as well. :)

You'll get there! :)

I don't really need to stay motivated about eating healthy anymore. It's just the way I eat now. Wanting to look good for bikini season motivates me to go to the gym. :)

I didn't really have one actually. I've always wanted to lose weight and be smaller ever since I could remember. I think 6 is the youngest I can remember wanting to be smaller. I didn't start actually dieting and actively trying until 12 though.

Thank you so much :))

Thank you!! :)

Yes go ahead!!

I'm sure you will if not better!! :)

You can add me and see my profile for a longer explanation, but basically don't limit myself so much that I can't sustain what I'm doing and end up binging. I focus more on eating healthy now and not eating empty calories and allow myself a treat in moderation. I also exercise almost every day and really love using my…

No, I just use my heart rate monitor and burn calories. Sometimes I'll stay on one machine the whole hour. Sometimes I'll use three different machines. Just whatever I feel like doing that day lol

I've gotten a lot of messages asking what I eat so I posted some recipes on my tumblr :) http://gethealthy2014.tumblr.com/

Just the calories... I'm trying to cut back on calories right now so I use stevia but I plan on switching back to regular sugar once I reach my goal and am maintaining

No worries!

I'm actually not that big of a pancakes eater myself but it's fine in moderation! Nothing wrong with that :)

Like I said, it's not unhealthy in moderation. How am I spreading bad information with better alternatives to foods people like to eat? I don't know what you base your logic on, but I base mine on science, what I have studied for the past four years, and what I see in my patients on a daily basis.

Exactly! Thank you!

Yes, and it is fine to eat things that taste good but are unhealthy in moderation. But, no one needs recipes for those things. They are easy to find. And you don't need to have a medical condition to worry about blood sugar spikes. It's not healthy for anyone. Yes, some people have more of a genetic predisposition to…

Have you read the nutrition facts and ingredients on the box of pancake mix? Majority of the time the main ingredient is white flour. White flour has a high glycemic index which will spike your blood sugar. Not to mention, it has basically no nutritional value.

Thank you :)

I'm glad! I love inspiring people to get more healthy

Way I see it, any loss makes it better than you were before which is all that really matters

You'll get there! :) Good luck!!!

Thank you :) Some people carry more weight around their abdomen and some do more around their hips and thighs. I'm one of the latter so weight just comes off my stomach that way naturally.

I love motivating other people (:

Just cutting back calories, eating clean, and going to the gym 6-7 times a week! :)

thank you! :) I definitely lost more of my stomach than my legs. It varies person to person. I want to lose more from my legs lol

Thank you! :) This is about 2 months difference
