Thanks for the information everyone! I checked with my boss today and they're able to help me out with work benefits. Hopefully I should be able to get checked earlier than September but until then I'll take everyones advice and log as accurately as possible! Thanks again everyone!!

I'm eating 1300 a day and I religiously measure my foods and alway slightly over estimate my calores to be safe. I eat back most of my exercise calories (eat back 500 cals from a 700 cal workout). I'm going in for thyroid testing Monday so that may help.

Wow some people are harsh. I totally understand wanting to use shakes. She's asking what the best kind are because she wants to know which kind are good for weight loss. So great job being understanding everyone!!! It really makes this website seem like a welcoming community. I personally just like any protein powders from…

I also have this problem. I don't like to spend a ton on sports bras so I just wear two sport bras. It's much more comfortable than wearing a regular bra and a sports bra. I just use the cheap, 3 pack sports bras from walmart! They're only like, 13 dollars!

I also take citalopram and gained weight... But certainly NOT from the medication. I've managed to maintain my weight and lose weight while on citalopram. I just have horrible will power and eat everything in sight.

Just getting back on track after a much too long break. Add me!!

WHAAT?! I can hardly stand 6 hours a week. Heck 6 hours a week at the gym is better than most weeks for me.

I log daily, I'll add you :)

I'm 20 too! Trying to lose around 70. I'll add you :)

The exact same thing just happened to me. I lost 8.2 pounds my first week and didnt lose any this week. Don't be discouraged though. The first few weeks your weight will fluctuate a lot. If you keep up doing what you said theres absolutely no way you wont lose weight. I know how you feel right now, kind of discouraged with…

I ate an entire bag of pistachios last week. It was over 1000 calories in that bag. I hated myself the next day but how down I felt made me realize binging isnt worth the guilt haha.

Thanks so much guys. I've been really stressed that I was doing this whole weight loss thing wrong. I definitely make sure I'm eating healthy so I think for now I'll stick with counting calories and once I get used to that I'll start paying more attention to macros. :)

That's part of why I'm not overly concerned about eating back my calories because I figure I'm probably eating more than I log. Thanks for the detailed response, I'll definitely be focused more on eating healthy rather than low calorie!

Hope you're still accepting people! I love this idea. I'm 5"4 and 200 pounds. :)

Thanks so much guys. I logged it as 300 calories just to make sure I don't over eat.

Bump

Also it was really rainy at the time but my watch and chest strap were both covered. Not sure if that means anything.

You're looking amazing! I'm at 198 right now. I hope I do as well as you!

Reading your post made me feel like I was reading my autobiography haha. I'm also 20, a student and trying to lose 60-70 pounds with a bad habit of stress eating. I'll add you!

Im not sure what the machine is called but theres a weight machine at my gym and what you do is you kneel on a cushion and pull yourself up and down using these bars attached to the side of the machine. My little skinny friend did it before me and once she was done she convinced me to try it. Little did I know you were…

Welcome! I'm also a 19 y.o second year B.sc student but I'm psychology. I'm taking a computer science course this year though! It's a lot of fun! Although appearance is probably the biggest factor to why I'm trying to lose weight, I know what you mean about just being tired after walking up stairs. I hate how when I'm…

Mmmm. I love the wrap idea! I like to bring a cut up apple with some natural peanut butter to dip it in. I also like to bring some fruits and veggies but that can get tiring after a while. Every once in a while ill pack myself a cliff bar. They're really yummy and super filling! My favourite is the white chocolate…

Thanks for the tips guys! I'll defiantly be picking up some DVDs. That's a great idea!

Thanks for all the tips guys! I think I'll try to do 2-3 cardio workouts at the gym each week and maybe 2 swim workouts to make sure I'm getting some variety. I'll also be doing strength training in there of course. Thanks again!

Hey Everyone!, Im 197 pounds and trying to lose 73 to bring me down to 125. I really would like to be at my goal in a year! Good luck to everyone :)

It is! And when I go to the gym after I get home at 630 I feel guilty that I'm not studying!

Hi Rachel! Im also new and am trying to lose 73 pounds. Good luck with your weight loss journey!

Im currently 198 and trying to get down to 125. Anyone who want to add me feel free! Im just starting out!
