9-10 pounds!!! I'm very happy. (My tracker says 7 but I started before the holidays and gained from Christmas and New Year's lol)

1. People who don't clean their machines...you're gross. 2. People who think that weight machines are benches or beds....aka people who hog machines for 10+ minutes just sitting there or playing on their phones. I understand resting between reps but sitting on a machine and not using it? Come on. Also I'm too afraid to say…

You should probably see a doctor O_O

You probably need to eat more during the day. Try having a bigger dinner?

:laugh: i'm 23 and i look way younger in person. i've gotten laughed away at bars before.

if i lose the weight by my goal date (my college graduation this may) then bikini pics! ive never taken them before

I get really sick if I eat at McDonalds or any similar place. Smashburger on the other hand....or Red Robin....I could eat at those places daily (but I won't!)

@crazy4lulu late 20s-early 30s

The store I work at has mirrors everywhere and the one mirror across from the cash register is definitely a skinny mirror lol. But the one right next to it is a fat mirror D: I don't get why we have so many full sized mirrors as I work at Sunglass Hut...haha.

Some of you need to calm down and learn how to take a joke. This happened to me too in my last relationship. I think it's because we went out to eat a lot. Then when we broke up I lost it all and gained it all back...blahh :/

My *kitten* and I would like my skin if it didn't break out so easily >:(

I'm always over on my sugar. Most of the time it's from fruits but that was not the case today lol

Ben and Jerry's Phish Food! Or if we're talking about plain, every day flavors....strawberry :)

I know how you feel. I only have about 30 lbs to lose and I don't really "look" overweight but I have extra fat on my stomach and hips that I'd like to lose. I also need to adopt better eating habits and be healthier in general. That's what motivates me. (And cute clothes) :wink:

day 2 was the worst for me. it started to get easy for me around day 6. im on day 8 today (i skipped monday) and i think im starting with level 2. i've lost 2 inches off my waist already and my endurance has changed completely, even when i do other workouts :)

I love this. Thank you :wink:

MFP doesn't calculate how many calories you burn if you log it like that...under cardiovascular search for "strength training" and put in how many minutes you did it for. I'm not sure if the calories burned they give you is accurate though, unless you have a HRM

I do both. I like cardio a whole lot more though because I love running, dancing, etc. I usually only see guys in the free weights section of my gym but yesterday I saw a lot of girls my age (early-mid 20's) and I was loving it! The weight machines are like 60-40 guy to girl ratio...girls mostly do the ab machines and the…

I wish I could afford the Y! I work at my local one in the summers..I teach art camp there so I get a free membership in the summer! But I can't work there during the other seasons because of school. I loved running on the arc trainer and watching Friends :(

Aw jeez, some teachers are such *kitten*! I'm going to school to be a teacher and I would never say or do anything like that to a kid! :(

My most embarrassing one is way too personal to share on a public message board. But there was the time a few weeks back when the button on my pants burst at work and I had to hold them together with a safety pin...I think around then was when I had my "a-ha" moment ;)

Why are there so many posts like this on here lately?

LMAO

If I lost 20lbs by then I'd be very happy :)

If I ate no chocolate ever again I would probably shrivel up and die D: Just have a tiny piece. Moderation is key ;)

Looking at pictures of myself that my friends took at our holiday parties this year. I really didn't like the way I looked and I untagged most of them on Facebook hahaha. But I realized that nobody should be embarrassed about how they look or about their body and in order to change that, I have to change myself :)

Do you lift/do weight training at all? Also you might not be eating enough. Do you know your TDEE? Search for the "In Place of a Roadmap 2.0" post on here, it's really helpful :) (I don't have the link on hand unfortunately) I know what it's like to try and then give up when you don't see the results you want but I'm…

The circuit training at PF is more for people who haven't really used weight machines before so it's not really high intensity. That being said, I use it sometimes and I find it helpful. I would use it more but people at my PF are annoying and don't follow the circuit rules. I wish the station was monitored....there are…

sorry if this is a personal question but how much do breast reductions cost? you can message me if you want.

i know how you feel. i'm a 38DD-40DD depending on the brand. even when i was smaller i was always a "larger" size because of my chest (i was also a D cup. sigh)
