Sugar snap peas. Magical.

I'm also 23 and have a significant amount to lose! Like 100+ lbs! I currently weigh 250lbs, and like another poster said, my main goal right now is to get under 200lbs. I will send you a friend request! Anybody reading this is also welcome to friend request!

Who gives a *kitten* what those people may or may not think? We're all guilty of having judgmental thoughts in our heads at times, we'd be huge hypocrites to get pissy at people who we think are thinking negative things about us. You do you, girl. Don't worry about anyone else. Also, as far as the real women comment goes,…

I ate TWO oatmeal raisin walnut cookies last night. Those suckers were good. I gave into the temptation, and at first I felt bad, but I see the container sitting on my counter and don't feel the desire to have anymore. I satisfied a craving, it fit into my calorie allowance, no harm, no foul.

I bounce around like a mofo, I don't care! Not during quiet hours, of course, usually mid-afternoon. But that's just apart of apartment living, especially when you move into a bottom floor apartment, you're going to hear the people above you, no way around that. You are very considerate, but also realize that this is your…

Drink whole milk (assuming you drink milk, that is.) Nom nom!

I third Jillian Michaels Banish Fat Boost Metabolism! Pretty intense workout, for me at least. Also, Bob Harper Ultimate Cardio Body is another *kitten*-kicker. They do use weights, but you can do every exercise on there without them. It's an hour long, lots of squats and lunges, definitely a good calorie burner.

I also have the Polar FT4 and it is freaking amazing! I bought mine locally and paid $90 but I think you can order from Amazon and get it for as low as $60. It shows you your target heart rate zone and notifies if you fall below, so you know if you're getting an effective workout. Also the calorie counter on it is awesome.…

I'm not sure if there is A JC Penney in your area but I went there a couple days ago and got 4 really nice workout tops (including a track jacket) and an awesome pair of xtreme shaper fitted capri's, all off the clearance rack for $25 total! I don't think you can find it that cheap even at thrift stores! All of it is…

I've heard super great things about the Polar brand, particularly the FT4 and FT7 model's. And they are more accurate if used with a chest strap. I'm picking mine up tomorrow!

Barbecue popchips! Or cashews, nom nom! Or some avocado. All good stuff.

I was a MAJOR soda drinker for years, haven't had one in about a month, so getting used to drinking just water has been a struggle for me. I've been getting anywhere from 4 to 6 cups a day, one is usually made with a packet of Crystal light, 10 calories, no sugar, and OK to use in moderation. I wouldn't suggest drinking…

With 3 older siblings, my belief in Santa never had a chance! I feel robbed, I want my kid to experience the "magic" on Christmas, even if only for a couple years.

I wear flip-flops in the shower. I can't stand the feeling of my bare feet against the tub. Don't worry, I wash my feet.

My SO is banned from the bedroom during my workout's. He's one of those types that can't keep their mouth shut. "Squat lower!" "You're not doing it right!" "Put some effort into it!" All this while I'm gasping for air and feeling like my legs are going to give out, lol!

Hey ladies, I'm 23, will be 24 in May and ultimately would like to lose 130-140 lbs! But for right now, my short term goal is to be under 200. I'm pretty new here so just starting to get this all figured out but anyone is welcome to add me!
