  • I struggled reaching 1200 when I was on the Paleo diet. If you don't eat carbs and dairy, it can be quite a challenge to reach that number. On my super-low days, I forced myself to eat a handful of nuts. I quickly lost 12 pounds on Paleo, but then the loss stopped. Since calculating my calories and learning that I need…
  • Damn. The trolls always have the headlines that catch my attention.
  • WHAT???? Guys go through physical anguish and women are spared???? Amazing! (Not that I would wish bloody nips on anybody other than my ex.)
  • You're at a healthy weight for your height. That could be why the weight loss formulas are coming up too low. You should shift your focus to health rather than weight. If you are interested in firming some areas of your body, meet with a trainer (or research the internet) and find out what exercises you could do to work…
  • Not only does the Government sell your loans, but Sallie Mae will probably sell it, and it'll probably get sold 2-3 more times before you pay it off. Lenders make more money off selling loans than they make off what you pay them. And $30,000 isn't much. It seems like a lot to you, but most people I know have over $50k in…
  • Find out if the gym has security cameras in the parking lot. Park where you'll be recorded. If she's anything like me, she'll be horribly pissed off and want to kill you for all of 10 minutes, then piss and moan and do absolutely nothing about it. You should be fine. ;)
  • This is such EXCELLENT advice. I might actually have to print it up where I can see it everyday. Thank you for posting! :drinker:
  • I hate looking at abs. The good-looking guys are never the ones with the ab photos.
  • You've known him long enough, he probably won't physically hurt you. But I gotta say, he sounds an awful lot like my ex-husband who would certainly flirt with you and sleep with you (and every other women he has contact with). Be careful! If you really like the guy, don't put out right away. Don't let yourself fall head…
  • This is all great information! I tried w1d1 yesterday. Within the first few steps, I was in instant pain on the left side. I've read that different shoes can take care of the shoe pain. I'm wondering if I should take back my new Saucony pair and get the Brooks that were also recommended for me.
  • I've had the Fitbit for, probably, about 2 years now. If you're the "one size fits all" type of person, then it's a viable option, but it isn't personalized to you or what you're burning. My fitbit is currently falling apart and held together with duct tape. I clip it to my bra, so the tape tends to poke my boobs and…
  • My biggest problem has always been eating too FEW calories. I hate when people blindly say "reduce your calories". Today I found a message here at MFP where the guy tells you how to figure how many calories YOU AS AN INDIVIDUAL, UNIQUE PERSON should eat to lose weight. Let me find the link.... Here it is!…
  • OMFG HILARIOUS!!!! Not what I was expecting as I scrolled down the page!! Bravo!
  • Hi everyone! I found the C25K app about a month ago, but I haven't had the nerve to try it yet. You all look pretty fit in your profile pictures! I'm curious if it really is good for "anyone", or is there a lot of emphasis on the "NEARLY" before the anyone. I'm the type of girl that doesn't fit into "one size fits most."…
  • Ahhhhahahahaha! Congrats on your achievement!!! I can't wait for mine to fall off (from weight loss)!!!
  • Every body is different. I went from 175 to 235 during my first pregnancy because I did EXACTLY what a nutritionist told me to do. I forced myself to eat all the portions that I was supposed to eat because that was "good for me". If you aren't hungry, you aren't hungry. And if you absolutely are not hungry, your body…
