I'm overweight and my daughter is tiny. She's going to be 5 in November and she can still wear her 12 mo. size shorts. Anyway, my ex lets her eat whatever she/he wants. I, however, don't. To get her to understand the importance of foods, I have her cook with me and I tell her why the food is good for her. The other day,…

Honestly, I prefer "clean" eating over "normal" eating. I've lost about 40 pounds since I started. And honestly, I feel better. I don't feel tired. I wake up early and go to bed late (well my idea of late lol). My energy is through the roof. Etc. But I also cut out dairy and land animals. So I eat fish, but once or twice a…

I've been on here before and I'm trying to get back into it. Eating wise I'm doing good, same with working out. Just need to log everything instead of in my notebook. You can add me. :)

28 y/o female 5'7" SW: 389 CW: 295 GW: 130 Started November 2009.

Dark Chocolate. I eat it maybe once a month now. Before was almost every day. Pasta is still a hard thing to take out. But it's something I'm working on.

Hey! I have over 100 pounds to lose. Since I started 3 years ago, I've lost 70. Now I have about 170 more to go.

I think it depends on the trainer/nutrionist. I would work with a chubby trainer/nutrionist if I saw them eating the food they're telling me to eat and working out as hard as I'm supposed to workout. If I never see them in there, then no I wouldn't work with them. This one gym I went to, the manager was talking about a…

I've been taking them for 3 months two times a day, and nothing has changed. I workout a lot, and I eat right. If anything I think it's slowed down my weight loss. I ordered mine from Puritan's Pride, it was buy two get one free, or buy one get two free. I'm down to a half a bottle. As for Dr. Oz, I don't care for him. I…

I've been vegan for almost a year now. And honestly, I haven't had any problems. Actually, I haven't been sick and my seasonal allergies aren't nearly as bad as they use to be. I'm more energetic and I actually eat less. As for nutrients, I get everything. I eat enough protein, I still take my vitamins every day. There…

Hi!

I needed a great laugh today! Thanks!!! :)

Ok, well I'm 28, not 30. But I'm a single mom of a crazy but adorable soon to be 4 year old. I have a lot more than 50 pounds to go, but you can add me if you want. :)

1. Raw Almonds 2. Fuji Apples 3. Carrots 4. Spinach/Kale 5. Quinoa 6. Onions 7. Garlic 8. Cucumbers 9. Tomatoes 10. Avocados

Because of how much they expand in size they fill you up. They're not bad. I add 2 tablespoons to my breakfast cereal on weekends. I really don't suggest adding it to a smoothie, unless you drink it right away. I let mine sit for a half hour and it was so thick I could barely drink it out of the straw lol. Check out some…

Start with light weights. Like the 2-5 pound free weights and 10 - 15 pounds on the machines (Quick tip, free weights are better than the machines). Start with 3 reps of 12. Work on your form first. If you don't have good form, when you add more weights you can seriously hurt yourself. Once your form is good, then start…

It's not. You have to know where to shop, when to shop and plan. If you ease up on meat and dairy, like only have it a few times a week. You'll save money from that. Find a local farmers market. Most of them, if not all, are seasonal. But you can find other stores that are reasonable. It took me a couple tries to find the…

I totally know how you feel. I've always been overweight. When I was a kid my mom use to say nasty stuff like that to me. She would make fun of me all the time. She's stopped when I told her if she doesn't stop talking to me like that, that I will no longer talk to her. Now she's one of my biggest supporters (after 2 years…

Try tumeric root (the supplement) and ginger. Both help fight off colds.

Walnuts (or almonds), Avocado, Mango, lime juice, and mint on toast . I get the frozen mangoes from Trader Joe's and let them thaw in the fridge. Mix with the avocado and mint. Pour over lime juice (fresh from a lime) and then add the walnuts. I also add a pinch of salt and pepper. Usually I'll put it on toast or on a…

Eat more. Especially veggies. They're low in calories and they fill you up.

I use quinoa, and then to replace the meat (I don't eat meat), I use lentils.

Hey I just started on this site and I have way more than 30 pounds to lose. Add me if you want. :)
