I don't know if anyone else said this yet, but the Fiber One Candy Bars are really good. Especially the carmel nut and coconut varieties (120-130 calories). I believe it also is available in peanut butter flavor. It has fiber, low calories and is very filling too. Don't try the Arctic Zero Ice cream if you have any taste…

I don't know what theyre talking about. I can totally see a huge difference. Congratulations!

Teacher's pet Bookworm Snob Rich girl...None were true, except maybe the book worm one. I love my books :).

When I go out its usually a special occasion so I get what I want. However, to not completely derail me, I eat 1/2 portions. Usually, the portion sizes at restaurants is outrageous so this isn't so horrible. I'm full and force myself to realize that and not get tempted by fatty desserts or appetizers I don't really want…

I have been asked if I was preggers a million times. One woman (a customer) came in 3 weeks after asking if I was pregnant to make sure I wasn't because she was so sure I was! Also, my father called me thunder thighs since I can remember and used to tell my mother not to buy my favorite foods because I was getting too fat.…

I'm sorry, but I disagree! Don't eat back your calories! You've done all the work to burn them, why would you want to put them back on? 1200 is a good target. If you hit a stall though don't lower from that because you're more likely to overeat and you'll be hungry all the time. Keep doing what you're doing. Good luck!

I'm sorry you're going through this. I know I've been there. I've actually saved a lot of money by dieting believe it or not. I don't buy too much fresh produce because I don't eat a lot (I gained from eating bad foods, not a lot of it). I buy a lot of canned veggies which is filling and actually really affordable. For…

Congrats that so awesome! You look great.

Me too!!!

Same here. I prefer a skinny guy to one that looks like he's roided out. I don't want him to be skinnier than me tho. lol

Regular soda.. I know you're not supposed to give up anything, but I decided a drastic change was needed there. Soda is just so bad, I do drink a lot of diet but I drink so much more water now! It's hard but so worth it. Honestly, I don't crave it anymore even.

Lets do it

23bmi BMI is an estimate of how "overweight" or "obese" a person is National Below average You have a lower BMI than 79% of females aged 15-29 in your country Global Above average You have a higher BMI than 57% of females aged 15-29 in the world Did you know? If everyone in the world had the same BMI as you, it would…

Do cardio that is fat burning, like the 10 minute Victoria Secret workout. With that and other cardio I can lose about 9 lbs in 3 weeks. You can find it on the internet. I don't know if it is ever entirely healthy to lose more than 3lbs per week, but a goal is a goal.

Honestly, I love avocado sliced with some salt. Or slice it up and put it on your favorite sandwich to make it that much better. Last but not least, the Tex-Mex version is to smash (with a fork is the easiest way) and chop up some cilantro, tomatoes, and onions, pour some extra-virgin olive oil on it, add salt, lime juice…

That is so awesome! How long did it take you?

Any and all fast food. I would eat McDonald's twice in a day sometimes! Also, regular coke..I've come to love diet though.

5'6'' 143 size 8-10 (depending on the brand). My goal weight is 124, so a good 21 lbs to go.

What everyone wants is a balance. No guy wants a nun and they also don't want a prostitute. Same thing with girls! Be who you are, that's the best advice anyone can give you. I married a "nice guy" and I'm a "good girl," but those roles cannot describe a whole person. Look for someone who fits you and your needs, not…

I was traumatized but what a family member did. I was 14 so you'd think I was old enough to ask for help but I didn't. When I finally did my parents were sympathetic but it had been almost 5 years so the pain wasn't as immediate to them as it was still for me. They don't believe in therapy but I did go. Honestly, I think…

Yes! I know exactly what you mean. My husband doesn't necessarily taunt me like hah you can't have this but he'll offer it to me and wave it in my face. Teasingly of course and he doesn't mean anything by it but I don't think he realizes how hard I'm trying. Also, he too says he wants to lose weight yet eats whatever he…

that's a unique response haha. paralegal.

AMAZING! Such an inspiration.

I def have cheat meals too I just don't go over board. Subconsciously I stop myself because I don't want to go backwards. So, even when I do allow myself to cheat I don't enjoy it as much as maybe I would have 3 months ago. You have to remember all the hard work youve put in and how you don't want to reverse that progress!

I started at a size 12 and now im a size 7/8. But my bones are really small...my wrists are about 6'' so 12 was really uncomfortable for me. But I have a friend who is bigger boned and she looks awesome at a szie 12. I'm assuming this isn't the end of your weight loss and size 12 is a great accomplishment for someone who…

WOW! You look amazing.
