This is me. I've been eating poorly all week. Seems like I get into this horrible "all or nothing" mindset. It's difficult for me to get back into eating healthy. I usually do really good and then go out to eat at a restaurant and it's all over from there. Anyway, to get over this, I've just been increasing my water intake…

Look into the Metropolis albums. Metropolis 2003, Metropolis 2004, and Metropolis 2006 are my favorites. It's techno industrial (with words, majority sang in English) ====== Here are some bands/artists and songs (and sometimes whole albums) that I enjoy listening to when exercising: Covenant "Afterhours" Decoded Feedback…

This is a great thread, so thank you to the OP. I can definitely relate.

Hello! Welcome to the site. I'm also from PA. I recently learned there was a forum - but had been using the iPhone app for quite some time.

Agreed because sounds like you're exercising a lot. Don't forget, muscle weighs more than fat. Also, make sure you're drinking plenty of water. The scale isn't the only way to calculate success. :)

I hate math, so I need people in my life that enjoy calculating things. What a great and informative post. Thank you!

I feel guilty if I don't go to the gym. I generally eat quite healthy, so I try not to get too upset with myself when I vary from the norm. I just need to make sure that the "treats" don't *become* the norm! But it's the exercising (or lack thereof) that I feel guilty about.

My office has it's own "snack drawer," which is filled with chocolate, chocolate peanut butter, poptarts, and other fatty foods that tempt the heck out of me! It's killer. Most days I do really well and avoid the drawer. But that's not always the case! :grumble:

Isn't that the truth! Quoted for emphasis. =)

Hasn't worked for me. Then again, I've hit a weight plateau and no extra exercise has made my weight budge so far. Bummer.

Today = 10 weeks since I smoked my last cigarette! Woo hoo! :bigsmile: Tonight I did 50 minutes on the elliptical - my longest time ever! So proud of myself tonight!

Woo! Double chins are a curse in my family so that has been a huge motivator for me (seeing it go away the more weight I lose!). Thanks for sharing! Congratulations and great job on your weight loss!

I'm not a nurse, but I second this! Taking pills is dangerous. Taking pills and exercising can put tremendous strain on your heart and lungs. Also, the risk of dehydration would also increase, that's for sure. I know it's alluring to want a quick fix, but honestly, that just is not the way to do it. I don't recommend…

LOL, right?! I've never been hit on at the gym. Although I have only gone with my boyfriend, except for one time. I'm going to use that as my excuse! hehe

I'm really self conscious at the gym. Just last night, in fact, when I was on the elliptical, I was looking around at everyone wearing their ear buds while I have the regular earphones. I can't workout in ear buds because they always fall out or hurt my ears, but I feel like people are looking at me (or even worse, making…
