Here is one of my favorite breakfasts - Mix 5 egg whites with 1/2 C cottage cheese - season with salt and pepper - set aside melt 10g butter in a non stick skillet. Add 2 cups raw spinach. Season with salt and pepper. pour egg and cottage cheese mixture over spinach cover and cook on medium high for 5 minutes, do not stir!…

Hi! I lost about 40 lbs and kept it off for a couple of years. I got derailed by an injury and gained weight steadily over the last year. I now have 50 lbs to lose, and I'm here to stay! Please add me, and we can work on this (again) together.

My High School weight was 155, I'm currently 157, but I've been gaining doing Stronglifts. I've gained 4 lbs in the past month. I've fluctuated as high as 195 during the 15 years and 4 kids since High School. I'm 5'9".

I think the BEST entry I've used was for a Vegas Buffet - Look it up - it has over 1 million calories. Seemed pretty accurate, so I used it ;).

I don't think I can give better advice that what everyone else said - but I just wanted to say that it sounds like you have an eating disorder. Please look into getting some help - you are not eating enough, and you are overexercising. You came here looking for help, but with all of the great advice you've been given, you…

It's funny, before I lost weight, when people found out I had four kids, they just said "that's wonderful!" Now, almost 3-4 times a week, I get told by a stranger that I don't look old enough to have 4 kids. I take it as a compliment, even though it can be taken two ways :). I think I look younger, and I feel younger. I am…

Amazing job! I am so proud of what you have accomplished, and I know you have the tools to maintain for a lifetime.

You sound a lot like me. I BF my 4th and last child (2 years old now) for 16 months. For the first 12 months, I weighed about 20 lbs more than my pre pregnancy weight. Not only did I feed her, but I adopted an "angel baby" . What that means is I exclusively fed another child for 8 months through donated milk. I was…

But on the flip side - my husband is just like you! He has to leave the room when my Dad eats, and I can't eat food next to him anywhere but the kitchen. If he gets mad at me for eating noises in the kitchen, he's the one that gets to leave :)

Ok, you're all going to think I'm the crazy one here, but I love those kinds of sounds. It has a name too. ASMR. I actually love the sound of chewing gum, it will put me to sleep! Crunching popcorn gives me tingles. I can't be the only one here that thinks this way, it's more common than you think!

i actually enjoyed the last few episodes, because it is giving you a chance to get to know the characters a little better. I am interested in the past, and if you were paying attention - there were a lot of hints as to the future of the show. I think they are using these as a way to slow down and prepare us for what is to…

I wore my biking shorts for well over a year without underwear, and after a race my husband came to pick me up. He never usually saw me in biking shorts, because I bike when he is at work. He immediately noticed that in the right light you could see everything. Everything. I had been biking like that in public, and either…

You win. :)

Am I the only person that gags on sweet oatmeal? For me, it's perfect with a pat of butter and a sprinkle of salt. My kids think I'm crazy - they love milk and honey every time, but I love mine savory!

I have lost slow and steady, so I hope I can help you here. You really seem determined to do this in a way that will work long term, and you are definitely determined! I lost my first 20 pounds rather quickly - in about 4 months. That is about a 14% decrease in weight for me - as I don't have much to lose. It has taken me…

Please listen to these people.

I'm 5'9 - sw 183 cw 152 gw 143. I've been losing nice and slow and steady since April of last year. 31 lbs gone! I'd love more tall friends!

Hi Kris - just my two cents until they respond - in my experience ( I BF my daughter until she was 16 months old while losing weight) The 500 calorie rule is pretty good until your baby starts eating solids. I found that by 10-12 months, I was only needing an extra 200-300 calories a day. After your baby starts eating…

Saving for later - thanks!
