Hi! I'm Jancie...30 year old nurse practitioner. I pilled on weight during graduate school and I'm ready to lose it and some more! I want to get fit for personal reasons in addition to my patients.

Hi all! I'm Jancie! I'm turning 30 Oct 11th! 10/03: 198.9 10/10: 10/17: 10/24: 10/31: 11/07: 11/14: 11/21: 11/28: 12/05: 12/12: 12/21: 12/26:<<<GOAL WEIGHT>>> (178)

Im in! 10/2- 30 minutes

Thanks...I used aerobics today since i don't have a Heart Rate Monitor...

That is a great feeling! I can't wait to be back at that point too!!!!!!

I have changed my snacking habits....I use to keep crackers etc in the house. I also have cut out ice cream and most sweets. If I snack, it's typically nuts, fruits or carrots. I believe more exercise would be beneficial...

My neurologist thinks they are related to my menstrual cycle...so I take a OCP (without taking placebo)....beta-blocker and SSRI. I take a multivitamin and magnesium. I take Zomig if I get a migraine. I keep a diary provided by my doctor and mark days with 1-3 X depending on severity. I have a headache 5-6 days of the…

Thanks!

Hi Meghan! Graduate school was a tough time for me! Lots of late night studying....managing the home....ordering takeout....no time for anything..... I'm glad you're getting on it now! I hit my highest weight ever at graduation... I'm turning 30 (in 10 days!)...and I'm trying to get back in shape!!!!! Kudos to you!!!!!

Congrats to you!!! I'm sure you're loving your new addition. Are you breastfeeding? You'll drop pounds with that quickly. Make sure you are eating enough to support you and little one if so. Exercise? Walking with the little one before it gets too cold?

It's quite depressing!!!!

I feel the same way!!!!!!

You only sleep 3 hours?

Anyone?

I just ate a whole bag of Sour Cream and Onion potato chips....

You've been diagnosed with Anorexia Nervosa? Do you see a MD or dietician? Sounds like this would be the best bet so you know you're getting all your nutrients and calories. Plus, great to have a relationship with someone who knows you and your personal situation! Does your coach know?

Difference between lap band and gastric sleeve? How much did you lose with lap band?

What are some of your favorite non-fast food food's? Keep those around and in the house!!! For me- love hummus and pita Watermelon/cantaloupe carrots apple and PB

You've come to the right place!!! This is a place where you are among others in your same boat! I feel we hit rock bottom some times in our life! Sometimes it takes a little bit of time until things start looking up! What are some of your goals? Do you have any support systems in your personal life? Those + this…

My advice....don't buy into the containers! Way overpriced! Green = 1 cup veggies Purple =1 cup fruit Yellow = 1/2 cup starch/carb Red= 3/4 protein Orange =2 1/2 Tbsp Dressing/seeds Blue= 1/4 cup cheese, nuts, avocado, coconut Pinterest has a ton of information on this system!!!!! Basically.....get all your food groups in…

I'm 5'8...and my goal weight is 160'ish.....

You're BMI would be 14.9 at 110lbs.....under weight on the BMI chart is <18.5. With your 70lb weight loss that would put you in the 170's....with a BMI 23.3 (Normal weight). I would recommend you seek an opinion of a medical professional (doctor...psychologist etc).

Thank you!!!!! Love the ONEDERLAND!

Thanks guys!

I find that banana or orange cover up the green taste! I use to drink smoothies every morning and it'd be: 1-2 handfuls spinach, celery, 1/2 orange or banana, greek yogurt, sometimes flax seed and water to help blend.

I don't think one meal is going to make a difference..... peoples comments can be some rude sometimes!

Much of your initial weight loss will be water weight! Im my past weight loss journeys, I've lost 3-4 lbs the first week! Like others said, as long as you're eating right (staying within calories, vegetables, fruits, proteins, carbs...) the weight will come off!!! Congrats! Keep it up!

Right on!

Stir Fry Taco's Both very easy and fast!!!! Calories are flexible as you can add more or less toppings!

Count me in!!!!!!!!!!
