THIS! This is my exact issue.. I lost 18 lbs and inspired a friend to start watching what she ate ( the woman eats burgers and fries daily) and now she is the biggest critic.. It drives me nuts that she's only worked out for 1.5 months, lost 8 inches and 3 lbs and is the queen of fitness/health.. Just one of my pet…

This tread blows my mind! It is amazing to see everyone's differences in weight with the same height meaning so many different body structures! My heaviest weight was 292 at a size 24 My Current weight is a size 258 at a size 16 My goal weight.. 190 lbs.. I have a ton of lean muscle so I can't even imagine being under 200…

Good for you for asking about this! I finally bought a HRM b/c MFP was always beyond out for me. I found a Polar HRM for $50 at Sears. Best investment EVER!

Awesome work!!

Oh what a lovely thought she had. It makes me giggle too because we all know how hard it is to stay away from the "good" stuff that is well rather bad for us. I would say have a treat.. try some of it and at least you can honestly tell her you enjoyed it ;) What a good lesson to learn.. not to send food.

What a horrible experience! I am thankful you have such a wonderful supportive husband who wouldn't let you be defeated! I am also happy you found a store who was willing to assist you and that you found great gear! I also hate at times going to get new workout gear.. I have felt horrible trying to find running gear…

I agree! I still treat myself to full fledge things here and there.. but making your own pizza with whole wheat crusts and lower fat meats are great.. and I found a great recipe for brownies that uses apple sauce and only has 101 cals per slice.. its a great treat freezes awesome! You can find replacements just takes…

The day I couldn't wiggle into a size 18 dress pants at my favorite store last February. I have always struggled with weight, and my biggest was a size 24. After kids I had to buy size 20-22s again ( was down in a 14 when I got pregnant) and was MISERABLE! I dropped some weight again.. and then when I needed dress pants…

I agree here. Unless this person understands why they are depressed and deals with that.. there is NO way to live a healthy life instantly with diet and exercise. Healthy choices nutritional and exercise wise will definitely assist with the depressed feeling.. but you cant run away from what you're trying to fix..
