Um WOW!! Great job!

I have 6 bikinis from Victoria's Secret (online) and I have one I got off of amazon that's the brand Sheridan Swim. I love it too. The ones from Victoria's Secret hold up really well. I've had several of them for about 5 or 6 years and they still look like new. ETA: I only got the one from amazon last summer and have worn…

There is no way to tell. Everyone is different and loses from different places first. My upper body loses fat before my lower body so I can drop weight and my pant size won't change. You can also change your body (losing fat and gaining muscle) and the scale won't change but your inches will go down. I'd suggest tracking…

Will you lose weight? Yes. Will a lot if it be muscle? Yes, will you gain all of the weight back plus some once you start eating more calories? Absolutely. I know this from experience. Just do it the right way and you won't be forever yo-yo dieting

That's great news for you! When I lost 25lbs mine didn't change either but when I got to a total of 93lbs lost (I gained lots while I was pregnant with my first) my cup size went from a D to an A unless you count what cup size I was when I had my daughter (that would be an E to an A) so yeah they do start to go at some…

I never exercise with shoes at home and I wouldn't outside if it wasn't for glass and rocks. I do p90x and insanity (3rd round of p90x and 2nd of insanity) with no problems. It's cumbersome with shoes not to mention we were made to be barefoot anyway :)

*groans* that makes my entire body hurt. Can't they just follow the diet without the patch if they're that determined?? Ouch and no thanks

1 min 30 seconds. It's so hard! Really need to work on it :)

Hi Yvainee (that really is a love name ) I'm 24 and have been on MFP for quite some time but switched accounts in November. I also have EDNOS (restricting subtype) and have been struggling through recovery on my own. I'm currently 27 weeks pregnant and it's very hard but I don't have long left, thank goodness :) I really…

I have always had a big belly, even when I was little as well. I used to always suck it in. Nothing helped mine except getting down to a low weight. When I was actually technically underweight my tummy was flat IF I didn't eat anything. The second any food went in there I looked pregnant again. I think there might be…

I agree. Everyone should receive support. I do understand that it's triggering for others and in that case, you need to look out for yourself but if it doesn't trigger and you feel like you can help then that's a great thing.

Mmmmmmmmm

Can you get on the floor and do things like donkey kicks and leg lifts? There are lots of these type of exercises that you do on the floor if you google it :)

Excellent first step! You can and WILL succeed. Just start slowly, make your favorite meals healthier and try some new ones! I love the site: bbcgoodfood.com there are loads of healthy meals that take 30 minutes or less to prepare and super easy. You don't need to make huge changes, just little ones. Take a walk around the…

Yummy!

Your dr will have to decide that. For some people, their dr suggests trying to lose weight whilst pregnant but there are a lot of factors that go into it so we can't really say for sure. Whatever happens it will be ok! ETA: you can do whatever exercises you are used to doing but since you've just started a new fitness…

It's not really about being thin. It's often about control or other mental health issues. I was never *that* thin but to myself, I looked exactly the same as I did when I was 40lbs heavier. I honestly couldn't see why everyone was telling me I didn't look healthy. It wasn't about how I looked though. I couldn't eat. My ED…

I'm so sorry you're having such a difficult time and I hope it's gotten easier over the past few days. I can relate, I've been in recovery for 6.5 months and while it was very difficult, I hadn't had any major slip ups until the last month or so. It's all gotten a bit too much fir me and I'm trying to fight it and get…

I felt tat way too. I'm 5'6 and at my previous weight of 145lbs (baby weight not included because that's another ball park) I had 34Ds that I was quite proud of. When I got down to a weight where I was happier (112lbs) they had shrunk to 28C which doesn't seem like a lot but i was basically flat chested because its like a…

I've been on MFP since 2010 but switched accounts about 6 months ago for various reasons. I've been consistently logging since 2011 and gave no plans to change that any time soon :)

I used to love the show but got a bit tired of it after a while. The super skinny didn't look super skinny to me and the part where they put the food in the tube is one of the most disgusting things ever

I don't know which stores are true to size but I love H&M (seems I'm the only one?) and Hollister. Before getting pregnant, I had the opposite problem of finding clothes small enough to fit me being a UK size 4. I wasn't always but had lost 93lbs so didn't know where to shop. I do know that primark runs big, at least a…

Absolutely BRIL!!

Hi! I'm 25w 2d with our second baby--a little boy :) we are very excited and I'm continuing my healthy lifestyle and exercise regimen. So far so good. Feel free to add me (please reference this post so I don't accidentally decline anyone)

Hi! I'm 25w pregnant and am in recovery for an ED so I know how hard it is. I gained a lot of weight with my first as well so I've been stressing a lot but trying to focus on fitness, strength, and being healthy instead of weight. Feel free to add me for support :)

It's the amount of calories it takes to maintain your weight taking your activity level into account. Lots of people use this number to determine the calories they need to reach their goal. This is a good site that figures it out for you http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/#projectedweightloss

There's really no way to know because everyone is different. HRMs aren't accurate in determining calories burned during weight lifting for a number of reasons (I'd recommend doing research but basically they calculate heart rate but when you lift, even if its quick, it confuses HR with the pressure caused by blood volume…

It's more likely that your muscles are retaining water to repair themselves. It's hard for women to gain muscle and you definitely won't be gaining it in a calorie defecit.

Wow!!! You look perfect :flowerforyou: great job!

Yes it's hard for me to even take a rest day. I'm somewhat addicted to exercise I think. I pulled my neck really badly rolling out of a handstand and couldn't exercise (or move really) for 6 weeks. Worst time of my life, seriously. It was over 3 months before I completely healed and could start lifting again and I still…
