  • The pics are just SO inspiring! Can't comment on every single one, but you all rock! I'm curious if anyone can comment on how your caloric needs and intake changed with lifting. Did you need to eat more? Are you eating clean? thanks!

  • I weigh weekly, and twice a month in maintenance modes. Bodies can do wild things overnight. The problem with weighing every day (outside of the obvious threat of sliding into an eating disorder,) is that by the same token of an overnight weight gain from something salty you ate, is that you can also think that you've lost…

  • Has nothing to do with class or snobbery. Your logic is somewhat faulty. People who are knowledgeable about food and nutrition call that junk food, not because of the people that eat it, but because of the lack of nutritional value, the added chemicals, and heavy processing. It's almost as if someone needs to approach this…

  • The only reason I don't eat anything with faux sugar is because of the chemicals in it. I'm trying to eat as natural as possible, and am one of those people that dislikes that chemical taste from sweeteners.

  • Hi, With the baggy shirt it's hard to tell, but your arms look very skinny in that pic. On the ideal weight charts for men, 6'2" starts at 170, and 140 is even low for a woman of that height. I do see that you're 21 now. A lot of times if you have growth spurts in the late teen years, you can still have a low weight for a…

  • Hi, Just looked at your Diary, too. You probably need to up the calories, to get back on track with hunger. You never want to skip meals, especially breakfast. A male friend of mine was doing an app like this and accidentally put himself in a a woman (lol) and his calories were ridiculously low -- he didn't really lose…
