You can add me! I'm 24 and I have an absolutely horrible problem with stress related binging that I'm trying to stop.

Thanks for the replies, I'll have to change it. I wasn't sure because it's not always full time and I'm not always really active off work. As for the potassium -- my mom always told me that too, and said that it would help with leg cramps and such. Honestly, it's kind of both. My knees and calves get the brunt of it. I'll…

When I was around 5 years old people started commenting on my weight. My mom couldn't get a size right on clothes she was making me and said, "If you didn't eat so much you would be able to fit in them!" I was six. Went out to the pool and swam/cried for an hour. Then when I lost weight, people told me I looked like an…

New Years Resolutions? Pfft. I'm fabulous. Don't need to change a thing! On second thought.. I GUESS I COULD do some more strength training/weight lifting in the new year... ;)

Hi! I'm 21 and looking to lose the same amount of weight (30lbs). I work a split shift and have to wake up at 4:30 every morning and usually don't get to sleep until 10PM so I know how hard it is to deal with food and stay within your limits (and lose your mind).

I'm already having that problem at my gym. I work a split shift and have NO time for a decent workout in the middle of the day so I have to go at night when I get off.. and I swear everyone in town is there. It's a little irritating but I can't see how it poses a problem unless every single machine is taken and they leave…

Hi there! I have PCOS also (diagnosed at 16), and I have never used it as an excuse. I've lost a lot of weight already. It's more than possible. It's not as hard as you might think! All it takes is a little motivation and a lot of patience to do it the HEALTHY way. I think, just like with anyone else who doesn't have the…

My mom does the same thing and has my entire life. But, not in the way of competition. She just hates that I'm losing weight and thinks I shouldn't and that I should eat junk like everyone else in my family does every day. When we go out to eat lunch together, and I order, say, a salad.. she'll make disgusted faces while…
