I'm on yellow :) also, the pink thing on my head is a towel - had just gotten out of the shower.

I made this before I saw the challenge so i can't offer a picture of it. Whole Wheat pasta with shrimp, tomatoes, and asparagus 4 oz whole wheat linguine (I was really hungry - you can definitely use less) 1 oz 31-40 cooked shrimp (the 31-40 means how many shrimp usually make a pound) 3 oz cherry tomatoes 3 oz asparagus…

I have had a REALLY bad eating day today! I've given in to all my cravings today and now I have a food coma and am DYING to get to the gym after work to do DOUBLE cardio!! Instead of an hour on an elliptical, I'll be doing an hour on an elliptical and walking for at least 30 minutes, probably more. Feeling soooooooo gross…

Yangi, is squash sort of like the syrup you'd add to your coffee for vanilla/hazelnut/whatever that's just mixed with water or soda water? I've seen it mentioned on British tv shows but I'm not quite sure what it is lol.

Normally I would, but was running short on time and pay day isn't until this coming Thursday...looking forward to finally making some homemade bread and tasty healthy things this weekend! :)

hold this thought, i'll get it eventually.

I generally do. Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday is strength with just a bit of cardio (sometimes more for "bonus points") and then Monday and Wednesday is only cardio. I usually take Fridays and Saturdays off because I'm off visiting my boyfriend, but if the weather is nice we take walks. I'm excited that he's FINALLY joined…

My mom came over for dinner and we were sitting at the kitchen table waiting for dinner to finish cooking and she told me that she was training for a 5k and overall trying to get healthy. She had looked like she already lost weight. She explained to me that after my Gramma (her mom) had died of cancer (lung and brain) she…

Sugarfree Red Bull and raw almonds

Yangi, there is also Mio and Crystal Light, but idk if you guys have that in the UK. Looks like this http://www.drinkwhat.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/MiO-Liquid-Water-Enhancer.jpg and http://www.sweettaterblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/free-crystal-light-on-the-go.jpeg. (I think Crystal light has started a line of…

I had a really big burn yesterday and spent a small fortune at Whole Foods in order to keep myself from waivering and buying breakfast sandwiches. Breakfast is my biggest weakness I think - I LOVE fried eggs and toast and if I were British I am convinced I would have a fry-up at least once a week. Anyway, I am down two…

I can do it for yellow team - hurray for being able to set reminders on my phone! :)

I'm Emily, I live in Somerville (essentially Boston), MA, and I'm 26, 5ft 5in and 195 pounds. I'd like to get down to 140 and lower my BMI. I go to the gym Sunday-Thursday (I was not very good this week because I wasn't feeling well) and meet with a trainer once a month. I'm aiming for 1200 net cals a day. And I am excited…

I've been on it since I was 14 (also for PCOS and other issues) and I've obviously gained weight in the past 12 years (I'd be concerned if I was the same size at age 26 that I was at age 14 lol), but I certainly don't think it's going to *keep* me from losing weight so long as I'm keeping good track of my eating and…

What do you guys mean by macros? I'm still relatively new at this whole take-weight-loss-seriously bit.
