Great job! A true inspiration for those of us trying to lose weight. :-)

Hey, I'm 21, looking to lose about 35-40 pounds but my overall goal is to feel good. i live in Belgium though, right over the canal! You can add me if you want and we can motivate eachother. ^^

tldr but after reading the first paragraph; Pandas eat bamboo all day and nothing but bamboo. Why do they eat all day? Because bamboo has almost no nutritional value. Is it thus the best food for them? No. Do they want to eat anything else? No. I therefore do not believe there is such a thing as a perfect inherent diet for…

How some people can feed a family of 3 or 4 on 100 dollars per week is incredible... I spend about 1200yen on average per day on food >< which makes it 8400 yen per week or about 80-85 dollars per week. This does include 300yen on 1,5l of Coke Zero and 1,5l of Evian per day; fresh strawberries (5 large ones for 500yen);…

I'm a senior at Ghent University (Belgium); 21 years old, 5ft6 and 170pounds. I wish to lose 30 pounds, but I'm not looking at the number too much. I just want to work out and keep my food intake within boundaries. At the moment I'm on an exchange program in Japan and the school's restaurant is really nice. Lots of nice…

you can just avoid those magazines and buy other ones... I've never seen such a magazine before, and I currently live in Kobe. I read a lot of beauty and fashion magazines and even the models aren't as thin as those girls. So I think this is just a very small niche you've found somewhere in Japan, just like you can find…

The American secret to weightloss! So I went to the States and man did I lose weight! Doughnuts, corn dogs, bacon, fries everywhere! The smell of the fat just made me cringe so much that my stomach just couldn't take it! No wonder they have all the supermodels!

I like making my pizzas on a tortilla, it's really tasty and it's a lot less calories than the pizza dough. It's quite thin so it also prevents you from putting too many toppings on it.

Maybe you could buy little foods now and then to cheer up your salads; like some cucumber, cherry tomatoes, some tuna, ... To make it less boring. I think the anxiety is not something this forum can really help you with. In the limited experience I have, I would suggest not focusing too much on exercising. Just find things…

I didn't really read the entire topic; but I guess things are very different in Europe than they are in the USA. We don't have people taking donuts or other pastries to work to offer to coworkers and we certainly don't put 3 apple pies on our plate ... If people take a salad for lunch the general thought would be more…

I "live" in Japan. Currently on an exchange program, will be staying until March. ^^ Maybe we could become friends and exchange Japanese healthy dishes, since I don't know any of them but all Japanese people are thin. :-)

You should structure and organize to reduce your stress. Make a plan about what you have to do, when the deadlines are, and structure your days so you get everything done. I also don't think you should take days off, since you will be more inclined to give up completely. Be sure to plan your workout in everything else…

Today was my 2nd day. I'm starting to hate Jillian Michaels. I'm keeping it up though! On to day 3.

Age: 21 Height: 5ft8 Weight: 170 lbs Goal: 155 lbs This goal because it'll bring my BMI at 25. Going statistically healthy into the new year. I'll try to exercise every day; jogging (40-60min), walking to the train station twice a week (1,5hrs), and trying this Jillian Michaels 30 day shred I see people talking about all…
