I'm not sure what you do, but is it possible to snack before your lunch break? Maybe having a fairly hefty snack like a bag of cut up veggies or a fruit salad can help curb your hunger until your lunch break. Or been a protein drink may help too if you can't eat but can drink.

I have friends who use a "gofer" service that will do your grocery shopping for you and deliver it. I don't know if that's something available to you in your area but that way you give out your list and have no worries about resisting temptation at the store. I haven't personally used online shopping for food but I think…

I only log it if it's a deep, rigorous cleaning session. Something like scrubbing floors on hands and knees, washing walls, dusting, vacuuming, shampooing carpets, etc. where I'm consistently cleaning for hours on end. I also don't work out on these days so I am essentially swapping out my regular work out for cleaning. I…

Are you taking a multi-vitamin? You may be lacking in nutrients. Stopping by your doctor's office and having a vitamin panel done might be beneficial to you. It's not good to be exhausted all the time!

I really prefer Underarmour leggings for working out. I like to have my clothes closer to my body while exercising so I typically wear leggings, compression capris, etc. Since I'm trying to lose weight I only have two pairs, one is XXL and the other is XL, I'm sitting around 200 pounds right now. While losing weight I like…

I feel your pain! I live off of the steamer bags of veggies. Couple minutes in the microwave and I have a healthy snack ready. I also microwave apple slices with a little cinnamon and splenda if I want something sweet. Microwave popcorn is also great for easy snacking and can be made ahead of time if I know I need to prep…

You look stunning! Congrats!

Congratulations! There's nothing better than these little victories to help keep you motivated and up your mood! Especially cool for your weight loss to be noticed in bulky winter gear! Keep it up =].

I really love my wide under armour ones. I have a big head so I need tighter headbands to keep everything where it's supposed to be! I'm also going to check out some of these suggestions, I love any reason to shop ;).

Love this thread! My heart died a little when I realized how many calories were in granola. I lived off that stuff. And peanut butter. I like me some PB2 but nothing will ever compare to creamy Jif :(.

Oh I love this! I'm in a snack rut so this was perfect. Currently love: 100 calorie popcorn + light string cheese Cherry tomatoes + bleu cheese dressing Fruitare frozen fruit pops, the black cherry is delicious! Peach Greek yogurt No sugar added hot chocolate I like to cap my snacks off at 150 calories so sometimes I'll…

What a great idea, thank you!

Just made the chocolate chip ones but subbed two tablespoons of brown sugar Splenda instead of the honey and added fiber powder. Deeelish!

There's some great recipes here! I'm excited to give some of these a whirl. Here's mine: I start with one cup of Starbucks Carmel coffee that I brewed night before and popped in the fridge 2 Splenda packets Dash of fat free milk A fairly liberal amount of sugar free classic caramel syrup If I'm feeling naughty I add a…

I'm also a bottomless pit while PMSing, and generally only satisfied with sweets. The curse of being a woman I suppose... I up my exercise to allow for treats. I cramp the week before and the week of my period and exercise usually eases my cramps so it's a win-win for me. I get relief from cramping and score extra calories…

I haven't personally used chia seeds but I have friends who often toss them in smoothies, on salads, etc. Strictly regarding weight loss, chia seeds expand in your stomach, thus creating a sense of fullness. While this is good for keeping hunger at bay, having something that grows in volume in your stomach can, from what I…

You look fantastic! Keep up the great work girl!

I'm a busy mom, so I'm used to eating on the fly. For snacks I'm usually eating an apple with peanut butter or mozzarella string cheese, reasonably priced and quick to grab and go. I recommend stocking up on frozen veggies, chicken breasts, and brown rice and making them all on one day (I meal prep on Sundays) that way you…

That's amazing! You're killing it! Thanks for posting your story, I also like to read the successes to keep me motivated and you gave me that extra push today!

I hope you know how amazing you are! I can't imagine the hurt your heart has felt but you have bounced back to do something wonderful. Keep up the work, you look great!

Some days I stand straighter than others. :)
