I personally have no clue but I've walked/ran without eating, didn't go well. I used to faint. But I always allow 30 minutes between my cardio and food. I wouldn't go empty to a class. Then again I've never done zumba or know what it is!

When I give into my cravings for junk I feel gross after, it's easy to rmemeber that 'oh god, why did I want that?' feeling. So it helps! But grilled cheese isn't always bad. Fries...probably. Argh!

The water is hard actually, I never knew how little I drank till now. Well of water.

Hmmm. Shorts. Being able to be confident in those cheerleading style shorts I used to wear as a kid. Anything to expose my thighs. Basically being in a bikini!

Awe!!! Now I'm going to clean my closet and set aside things, seems like time. This might actually be a great motivation in itself, plus cleaning burns calories ;)

Great to hear other people are doing the same! I have clothes I've had since elementary school, seriously, well end of it anyway! junior high, hoping they'd fit again.

I went on a trip with my family. We did a rafting type excursion and I never wear a suit in public, let along anything else skimpy. We had to walk 40 minutes wet and in our bikini's, I felt like the most disgusting thing alive, and I felt tired of always being TIRED. I gained the weight because of the people around me, the…

This site is quite informative! The internet alone provides so much info. Keep on track! Love the username.

Well..question easier to answer is what isn't a weakness? I'm not insane on sweets but things like.... flatbreads, pasta, I love them. CHEEESE!!! oh my gosh. I'm a vegetarian but even so I still have a hard time saying no to some foods. Cheese is might addictive.

too true :)

Thank you all so much. I fully intend to stay strong. Congrats on losing 29! wow. I'm doing at least 45 minutes of cardio a day and sticking to my calorie intake goal! I've only lost 2 pounds so far but that feels good to know something is going right. :) The vegetarian aspect isn't hard so far but yes protein is an issue!…

I'm probably in now position to say anything considering I am usually the worst at goals! I read a lot online lately, watch videos, people vlog about weight loss and I find their success incredibly useful! You can get all kinds of tips online and learn how toxic it is to be overweight from tv shows but doing it never seems…

yes, that is my puppy romneks! She is quite an encouragement, always beside me when I'm working out at home. Thank you. :) One step at a time! Feel free to chat if you need some encouragement of your own, I know I always do.

thanks :)

Hello! I have more than 10 pounds to lose (i wish) but I can sympathize with the urge to eat obviously. It's all about attitude! And of course having someone there to encourage you.

I understand, when I hit 200 I told myself it was a mistake on the scale, and now at 217 it's time to stop making excuses! You have my support. :)
