Why "raw til 4"? Why not raw til 5 or raw til 3? I am eating more fruits and veggies because I didn't get enough of them before. I am eating raw more because I like the taste of raw veggies vs cooked ones. I don't think you need t eat raw til whenever. If you want to eat more fruits and veg you can, no matter what time of…

I like "detox drinks" because it keeps me from drinking soda. I just put fruit in mine. There are a lot of ideas on Pinterest. :smile:

I do it. I like the workouts and the portion control containers. It has really changed the way I look at food. I will say that there are cheat groups on Pinterest if you can't afford the program. ;)

Knowing that I did this to myself. It's no one's fault but my own. That has been the hardest pill for me to swallow.

What is that second pic??

For me what I have found is if I tell myself I cannot have something and then I crave it it will be all I will think about. I will obsess over it! What I am doing now is if I crave something I will let myself have it. This morning I was craving a chicken biscuit from Chick-Fil-A, so I went and got one. I just got the…

I am 30 years old and I have IBS and I'm prone to colon polyps. So every 5 years I have to have a colonoscopy. I drink warm clear broth when I get hungry. It seems to take the edge off. The first time I couldn't keep the prep down so they had me take laxatives and drink a TON of water. Luckily, it worked.

That's how I weigh my cat lol

I was planning on logging and eating back exercise calories. I may start walking during my lunch breaks to get some movement in. Thanks for the feedback!

A month ago....

I am not cutting out junk food 100% but I am trying to eat more fruits and veggies. I have IBS so for me cutting back on junk makes me feel better physically.

Good point! I didn't think of it that way!

Thanks for the info!

Thank you all for the support. Sometimes I just need a little push to get started in the right direction.

Thank you for the replies. Yes, my OB wants me to lose weight before trying again. He wants me to be the healthiest I can be to give my body a good head start. We haven't been trying yet, but we want to start this year. I think it's my insecurities and self doubt. My mind is telling me this is impossible and I can't do it.…

47lbs to go here

I had a group of family members do it for 2 months. They got no results.

Hi! I am a mom of one. I am currently 163 lbs (5 lbs lost so far!). I have restarted my weight loss journey several times now. I am hoping this is the last time! I am currently doing the 21 Day Fix workouts (not the meal plan). I am watching what I eat and watching my portions. It seems to be working so far. Feel free to…

I use the You Are Your Own Gym iphone app. I am starting the 10 week program tomorrow. It's only $3.

Thanks for the support everyone! I have stopped letting MVP from auto posting on my FB page. I've also removed myself from the group my aunt made. My tipping point today was a friend who posted under one of my posts that said "I don't understand why you want to look unhealthy. Skinny is not healthy. Big is beautiful!"…

My husbad is over weight but doesn't want to change. He supports me though so he is fine with me working out and doesn't say anything about my eating habits. He does have a cupcake addiction....

I am doing this for me 100%! The discourage ment and the people telling me it won't last just makes me want to try even harder! I am going to find my support on here for sure! I hate being unhealthy and overweight! I probally will leave the fitness group my aunt started too. They are just eing begative towards me.

I'll do some beginner poses on my rest days then. :) I did feel better after doing it. My daughter does keep me moving lol!

Thanks for the tip :)

Thanks :)

THIS happens?????

I pre-log so I know where I stand. It helps me to not over eat. The only thing I don't pre-log are my workouts and dinner. My husband is overweight too, but doesn't want to change. He also cooks so I eat with him but try to keep my portions small. Pre-logging helps me determine what I can eat at night.

I am always looking for friends! :)

My aunt has the C25K running app. It's free so I downloaded it and tried it out. I ran outside and took my dog. I got through half before I felt like I was dying! So now I'm tired and my pup is tired (double yay!). I think I am going to continue to run outside. I did check out the "You are your own gym" videos. I think I…

Thank you all for your advice! Since the weather is nice I think I am going to walk/run outside. I'm also going to check out some workout videos. Knowing I can do this at home I now feel motivated! :)
