I am so sorry they did that to you. Kudos for not hitting them over the head with a barbel, it's what I would have done. You look great!

I think the confusion comes from people focused on MACROS. From what I've read, yes, all macros (calories) are equal. (Micro)Nutrient and nutrient absorption, inflammation... These are what makes the food you eat unequal. If you're talking about weight loss, absolutely you CAN lose weight from just eating junk. But will…

Thats encouraging! You look great, thanks for sharing!

Since she's speaking from personal experience and not claiming to be all knowing or that everyone is the same way, I really think you should back off.

Man... I don't even know what to believe anymore. People say completely different things, and all of them are 100% sure that their way is the right way. Experiment, be patient, listen and watch your bodies signals. And do what you know you can sustain. I, for one, WILL NOT eat 1 gram of protein per lb of lean body mass,…

This is awesome :)

Ug, sorry that you're getting so many rude know-it-alls. I don't get where this phobia of a low calorie diet is coming from. If any of you has any solid research on how bad it is to eat that amount (OTHER THAN MUSCLE LOSS! More muscle DOES NOT equal more health) then I would gladly read. You did a great job! And the fact…

Awesome! What an amazing transformation!

Your story brought tears to my eyes. I struggle with binge eating as well. I let myself gain 50 lbs, I was in and out of the obese range for my height, and I knew there was no limit to how fat I might get if I didn't stop. That's the thing about binge eating, it only numbs the pain if you keep doing it more and more and…

This is awesome! Thanks for posting!

I feel like having the mindset that someday you'll be "done" can be dangerous. I never want to slip back into my old ways, I always want to improve! Whether it be weight, inches, cardiovascular fitness, strength, flexibility, etc! So many people have problems with gaining the weight back (sometimes more), including me :(…

Wow... What an amazing transformation. You look like a totally different person! I struggle with emotional eating as well, so your story is particularly inspiring to me. Thank you for sharing!

I feel you. I've always been an "a" and to achieve the lean body I want will mean being completely flat chested. Something that I've found has helped me, is to make a mental note when I see a girl with very small breasts (think of the hottest celebrities! kiera knightly, many of the vs models, Kate Hudson...), 9 times out…

I like to do a hardcore workout first thing in the morning, then I eat for "maintainence". It's good incentive to workout hard, and I still feel like I splurged even though I didn't overeat. It works for me! :)

Great job! Very inspiring!

Amazing! Thanks for sharing!

You look so much younger! Congrats and thanks for the inspiration!

I love drinking herbal tea or coffee on rainy days :) Yogi tea is my favorite, as many of their flavors have stevia leaf already in them, so they taste perfectly sweet and are virtually zero calories.
