I weighed myself one time naked (176.6lbs) and then clothed (179.6) and then an hour later at the doctor, no eating (180.4). Now, I only judge my weight based on my scale and no clothes, otherwise it can really mess with your head. Also, keep in mind if you haven't gone to the bathroom recently that can add up, I know this…

I do some lifting 2-3 times a week and then cardio 2-3 times a week. Cardio typically consists of the elliptical, jogging on the treadmill, and a spinning class. I also have this love/hate affair w/the Jacobs Ladder, if you don't know about it...google it...its cray. I was taking a hot yoga class but I switched gyms and…

Feel free to add me :) I try to log daily but I am not perfect lol

I heart them, especially because they make them in Gluten Free which I need. They are delish.

I was just diagnosed yesterday with Hashimotos so the advice in this thread has been very helpful. As of July the only symptom I had was an enlarged thyroid with nodules and elevated antibodies. I finally had my endocrinologist appt yesterday and found out that I also have developed pretty much every symptom :/ waiting on…

Great Advice! I am doing my first mud run (Warrior Dash) in May and will def utilize all of your suggestions!

29, Oklahoma! Sent you a request!

I say anything that has its first ingredient listed as water counts, I mean its some water right?

If you have a Target near you, get their Target Debit Card, it saves you 5% each time you shop, plus they have a free app called Cartwheel where you can get "Coupons" for percentages off certain products, plus then if you go to their website you can print off coupons, then of course regular newspaper coupons. I went from…

About a week before hand: Intense boob pain, so bad that i usually sleep in my bra because the pain from them being unsupported is too much to bear. This means no running, elliptical, etc because they tend to bounce even with the best of sports bras and that pain is almost unbearable. I am also ridiculously tired, i can…

I'm not 23, but I am 29 and would love to have more buddies on here! My starting weight was 247 and I am at 184 right now, I am 5'9. My goal weight is 180 and then I am just going to keep working out and eating healthy and if i lose more than that will be okay. You can totally do this, its hard to do it w/o a completely…

Here is my list lol: Lose 60 pounds: Pair of Christian Louboutin pumps...Met this goal but decided $750 was too much to spend on shoes..saving it to go toward another reward. Reach 180lbs: New tattoo. Getting the phrase "Don't let the butterflies go" its something my daughter and I say to each other, she misunderstood…

Same here, i had mine out when i was 17 and about 130 or so. Went to the emergency room twice before they decided it was my gallbladder, the doctor told my mom the only time he sees that in someone so young is if they abuse drugs. Needless to say my mom told him matter of factly that I did not use drugs and she did not…

I have the Flex and the only thing I notice is that sometimes when I sleep with it I wake up with bruises on my wrist like someone grabbed my wrist really hard. I tend to bruise easily though.

I'm not sure on my heat time yet, probably go for earlier in the AM and I am trying to convince my husband to do it with me because it wouldn't be as much fun to do it by myself.

Playground idea is brilliant! Thank you!

It is most likely sodium induced...when I eat out at restaurants or just eat particularly bad food my weight increases by a pound or two. Also, I noticed if I don't get enough sleep my weight fluctuates. I try not to weigh myself every day but sometimes its hard not to. Don't let it get to you!

Both my husband and I work 8-5, he usually drops our daughter (4) off at school and then I pick her up. We grab a snack for her at the house, change into our gym clothes and then head to the gym. Usually are there from about 6:30-8:30. Then head home, make dinner and put daughter to bed at about 9:30. Husband will usually…

Wow, I didn't even realize! I shall keep up with my fidgeting :) Thanks for all the replies!

I want the force so bad! I have the flex and I am really happy with it. It def holds me accountable for getting up and moving my butt to hit that 10,000 steps daily target.

29 :) i dont feel 29 though...i feel maybe 26 or 27 lol Feel free to add me!

Jennifer Lawrence David Tennant Matt Smith Not all at once...I dont want to have to divide my attention between Matt Smith and David Tennant :)

As far as celebrities go, Jennifer Lawrence is def someone I admire. She loves herself and is proud of it. In real life, one of my friends is an avid runner and I am quite envious of the progress she has made.

Thank you :) You are doing great yourself! Yea, after I had my daughter my shape changed a lot, my hips are much bigger than they used to be lol.
