I weigh as soon as I get up in the morning before I eat. Yesterday I ate out so no idea as to how many calories that was sine they don't have nutrition information on their site. I'm sure it's high but I worked out extra because of it and I tried to eat really clean the rest of the day. I'm trying not to get to upset as…

I drink a smoothie every morning, my go to green smoothie is Handful of spinach, parsley, lemon, celery, something sweet (e.g peaches, apples, kiwi, strawberries etc), coconut water and chia/flax seeds. Blend until smooth and drink. It's really good.

Well I do homemade smoothies in the single serve blenders. I but everything in the blender the night before, turn it on in the morning after I shower and by the time I'm dressed it's ready. I usually do veggies (kale, spinach etc) with a piece of fruit, chia/flax seeds and coconut water.

My Zomg moment is how much sugar everything has, it so depressing. Oh and portion sizes, a cup of pasta is nothing my gosh!

So I succumbed to the cookies so I have to exercise for 2 hrs to burn it off, lol

[/quote] Skinny cow! It is great when you are craving chocolate... or go dark chocolate with fruit and nuts.... [/quote] Lots of great ideas, I like the skinny cow idea, I'm a cookies and milk girl....fruit usually work but not during this time. I guess I can eat it and go burn it off at the gym?

It was a typo, trying to do to many things at once.

I do understand exactly what you mean, almost as if life won't start until I'm a certain size. Yes, I'm definitely in that mode, it's hard to be confident or less self conscious when one the thicker side. But that is why we are here to get the bodies we want.

Well I've just restarted for the millionth time, so I understand that life happens. I have a ton to lose so add me and we will keep each other motivated.

Nice to know there are people out there with my same struggle. Sending request

Add me I need the motivation

Add me need all the help I can get.

Well I'm not quite 40 but I have more than 50 lbs to lose. I no longer take pictures for that very reason. Add me it's easier to stay on track with company to help.

Well I need to lose about 70 lbs so I'm sure we can do it together

Feel free to add me, I to have a ton of weight I need to lose and keep off:smile:

Ames, no idea how far that is.
