Thanks for the replies everyone! I will check those out :)

That's a good idea, I haven't listened to her in a while, thanks!

Well I usually know if my family is going to make delicious things and its usually for dinner. So I will make a point to have a very light breakfast & lunch to compensate. I will also workout if its Thanksgiving or something to give myself more calories to work with. Once eating I will make sure to pay attention to the…

Hahaha I love that! Thank goodness there are other people who eat like me!

It sounds like you've had obstacle after obstacle put in your way but the important (and impressive) thing, is that you're still standing and not willing to give up. You clearly have a lot of compassion for others (caring for your mother, letting your girl go) and I think you need to apply some of that compassion towards…

Canada ???? No, I don't live in an igloo or hang out with moose, beavers or geese. No, I don't love hockey but yes Tim Horton is awesome. Yes, I speak English and I don't say "Eh" or "Aboot." No, Canada is not part of America and Obama isn't our president. Just thought I would get the questions I always get out of the way…

You know what I would do is check out how many calories a calculator says you would burn walking or jogging at that speed. That would give you an idea of where your caloric burn should roughly be, right? Good stuff, I always cringe a little when I see people without them ????

Honestly, weight doesn't really come into whether or not you stay single. Different people are attracted to different things. I've had boyfriends at my heaviest, I've been single at my thinnest. There have been good ones and lousy ones throughout regardless of my weight. Don't take what boys say to heart, I know its hard…

Have you tried using an actual calories burned calculator where you enter your weight to get the answer? Oh and hey, if you only wear one piece of gear, make sure you wear wrist guards, speaking as someone who loves blading, you'll appreciate them if you ever wipe out.

Rollerblading definitely burns more than 133 calls per hour - after all just walking burns more than that! Depending on your weight I would say anywhere from 400 to 600 calories an hour would be more accurate.

Well it's not weights, but have you considered doing a Pilates DVD for toning? Mari Winsor does one that has a 20 min workout that includes modification options for those who are unable to perform all of the moves yet. Also, awesome job with all your progress so far!

It's impossible that no one has noticed because the difference is astronomical, even your face is more slim - you should be very proud. They're probably just too polite to say anything or maybe worried if they do, you'll make them uncomfortable by saying something like "So what? You thought I was fat before?" There is also…

Good to see I'm not the only one with a Disney addiction ????

Disney (A lot more then any 25 year old should) and Marvel Movies... I love Marvel movies and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D....and Veronica Mars - so stoked that they are making a movie!! Though things I've liked that are actually embarrassing include Gossip Girl and a few One Direction songs... I didn't want to like them... it…

Oooo look I qualify! Feel free to add me! I'm motivated but also much better at motivating others than myself ????

As soon as you said that you call it Jelly, I thought I wonder if he's from England, and sure enough I was right! Kind of funny what a small world it is, as I was actually born there, just outside of London. So I know all about it being called Jelly but I've been Canadianized over the years ????

Not trying to ask an obvious question, but wouldn't a deli meat sandwich or even a turkey or chicken breast sandwich be permissible and provide protein? Unless of course your son doesn't like these or you are vegetarian, in which case I withdraw the suggestion. On the flip side, I was thinking of how you could incorporate…
