Amazing! You absolutely kick butt!

Yeah! I actually just bought a new jacket like three weeks before this pic and it was tight around the boobs and upper tummy. Wouldn't even do up! And now it does up so easy!

Thanks everyone! I really appreciate it! Hope you're all kicking butt too!

Something that helped me put my bad habits to rest almost immediately was this quote "Stop saying you don't have time for something. Instead, say it isn't a priority to you.". For me, "I don't have time to work out or make healthy meals" became "Making healthy meals and working out isn't a priority to me." and it was true.…

Added all of you! Let's do this!

I love this one! http://iifym.com/iifym-calculator/ Honestly though, it depends on your body type and activity level. A guy friend of mine has to eat 3,000 cals a day to keep his weight where it's at (He's a little pudgy but works a physically demanding job), where as a friend of mine has to eat about 1,700 to MAINTAIN,…

You're the best! I really appreciate you sticking with me!

Hi Garmel! It might be that you're simply not eating enough and putting your body into starvation mode. If you're exercising a lot, you'll need to eat more. I use this site to get my macros in order since MFP's macros are on the weird side! http://iifym.com/iifym-calculator/

You can definitely do it. Exactly as Krystal said, it takes a while. I drink water to help trick my mind into thinking I'm not as hungry. :) Gum also helps!

Plateaus are the worst! Can't wait to add you!

Congrats for getting back on the horse! I bet we'll do great!

Thanks! Has juicing been working well for you? Any time I've tried liquid-based diets I've always been so hungry!

Hey Alicia! I've had the same issues. I'm just getting back into logging myself. We're pretty similar! I'm also 23, 5'6", 224 lbs, flexible goal of 160-170 lbs! Adding you!

Bumping to steal!

Have her go to the doctor and get full blood work done if you can. She might feel alright, but seeing numbers that would be attributed to her weight might scare her. It's one thing when a friend says it, but another when an official or authority figure explains.…

Excellent! Just goes to show we shouldn't gauge our progress by the scale!

Genetic influences To date, more than 400 different genes have been implicated in the development of overweight or obesity, although only a handful appear to be major players. Genes contribute to obesity in many ways, by affecting appetite, satiety (the sense of fullness), metabolism, food cravings, body-fat distribution,…

It's also hard growing up with a parent that has a huge age gap from you. I'm 22 and dealing with my father slowly passing (in the way you do from dementias) from Lewy Body Dementia. He's 73 this year.

This.

Don't date that American soldier, your mother was right about him. You only have a couple years with your dad, stop fighting with him. GO AND TRAVEL!

Sole is really good when cooked in a pan with garlic and salt, or when breaded. You can tell fish is cooked when it starts to fall apart.

This is how it starts. It's cute. But the second they think they've got you, and they don't like what they hear or see, you will be verbally destroyed. And maybe only verbally if you're lucky.

This... if all women were like you, no one would be married or stay with a man any longer than she found another one willing to lie to her. I mean, I have no proof, but my husband must be cheating right? Because I can't be sure. I don't have a camera following him around 24/7, so he must be unfaithful! :huh: [/quote] This…

I said I checked and found no proof. That doesn't mean it didn't happen, it means he just didn't leave tracks. OR maybe he was totally innocent, again, I can't be sure. But that's why I had to break up with him: I couldn't be sure and the not knowing was really killing me. [/quote] Ironic that you didn't need any proof to…

But... Did you read? The very many women who posted their experiences with abuse and she blatantly disregards them?
