one day isn't going to be a big deal. it is repetition. you'll start to get really tired first and then the rest will follow. it may seem like a great answer to the age old question, but I would seriously not recommend it.

\] exactly what I was going to say.

my goal weight is 135. but really, my goal isn't so much a weight as it is a flat tummy and awesome muscles :) if that means that i'm 150, then so be it. if that means that i'm 95 -- then so be it! technically, for my height I am supposed to be between 95 and 120 -- but I know that I have a larger bone structure and…

if you are hungry -- eat! first of all, it is GREAT that you are recovering :) why won't your parents let you see anyone? sit them down and explain to them that you need to see a psychologist -- if not for a negative relationship with food, for the depression that comes with any eating disorder. honestly, recovery is VERY…

^^this! I used to buy frozen chicken breasts because they were less expensive and I was going to freeze them anyway, but they contain so much more sodium! when I was in college, I was a vegetarian -- it was a healthier option for me at the time because I didn't have much time to workout (so I didn't need a lot of…

im 24! have lost a little over 40 pounds so far, have a little over 50 left to go! add me if you want, but please include a message :)

^this

if it fits into my plan, then why not? this isn't a diet. its a lifestyle change.

^this! :) but seriously. screw people and what they think. do what is best for YOU and don't worry about anyone else.

I wash my hair and let it airdry 3-4 days a week. I try not to wash my hair at all on weekends unless its necessary. dry shampoo is a godsend -- use it along with a leave in conditioner and you will be good to go don't add a lot of product to your hair on days when you are showering, save the product for the days your not.…

running isn't for everyone. personally, I HATED to run when I was younger, and now have started to really appreciate it. It makes me sweat the most, and when I am really stressed out -- I crave sweat! try running in different areas, running on the treadmill while watching a movie or listening to an audio book, or run…

how much sodium are you eating?? how much water are you drinking? are you eating back your exercise calories? while weightloss is a science, you have to find what works for you -- not every person is going to be able to lose weight the same way. however, I will admit -- when I started paying attention to how much sodium I…

I have three pairs of running shoes! 1 pair of new balance (which is great for treadmill work), 1 pair of nike shox (which is great for running outside) and 1 pair of adidas -- believe it or not the adidas shoes are awful for running! very little support. if you enjoy running outside, I would recommend shox -- they give…

you look fantastic!! congrats!!

clearly you didn't read anything that she wrote. try protein shakes! I use them in the morning and they totally help me to get nourishment without getting overly full! mix a scoop of protein powder, a cup of milk (almond, coconut, or soy will work, too!), and a 1/4 cup of oatmeal for a drink that is quite tasty, healthy,…

I think that it was nice of him to help you -- at least there is that :) he does need to work on his delivery though haha

FIST AND FOREMOST YOU ARE NOT FAT. no one "is fat" -- people HAVE fat. there is a difference. people are really cruel. they are mean, heartless, and frankly -- @$$holes. there words hurt, even if you try to pretend that they don't. but there is something that you can do about it. HOLD YOUR HEAD HIGH. Continue being…

you are correct! but, I set it as sedentary because I don't know if i'll be able to workout until literally I am at the gym. my work schedule is CRAZY and I could have evry intention of working out and then not be able to. so I set it as though I am sedentary so that if I am unable to I won't be GAINING weight. does that…

I do that. I plan about a week or two out. the issue isn't saving calories for dinner. the issue is that I eat more at dinner because I don't know if i'll be able to work out during the day. so when I am able to work out, I have to eat more at dinner to make up for what I lost...

all great ideas! especially the nuts to things and beef jerky! I haven't had beef jerky in so long! thanks everyone :) really appreciate the insight!

thanks for the advice, guys :)

5'0 with 60 left to go! down 40 currently :) anyone is free to add me :)

I was in sixth grade. I had just moved to a new school and a lot of the boys called me "fatty patty" -- mostly because children are cruel. my name isn't even Patty! my "friends" gave me the nickname of "Bounce" -- which I didn't understand until I was older. I was extremely athletic, so I was bigger with lots of muscle. I…
