I mean yes and no. Can you still have a night out once in a while and have a couple slices of pizza without becoming a fatasorisrex? Yeah. Can you have cake for breakfast every day as long as it's under your calories? Maybe for the first couple of weeks or month if your extra overweight but long term, hellsss no! Diet…

I like milk. I recently switched to 1% milk from 2%. I'm not gonna get rid of milk, just keep it as a low intake.

Having a baby takes a toll on your body. So give yourself a break, everyone responds differently there and most ppl have struggles. Also, as for that waist line. There's no easy way around it. It's diet and portion control. For a long time I thought I are healthy and I thought that my eating habits weren't as bad as they…

With guys, they tend to be clueless, and a guy who can eat anything and get away with it will understand even less. Sometimes it can be hard to be on track when you have a major lifestyle incompatibility. Make him understand that his shoving fast food in front of you and taunting you and forcing distractions is supportive…

I gave up pop, and I went through two weeks of hell, headaches and crap. Then after awhile I started drinking diet soda, and the headaches came back! Then I gave it up and ended up having the migraines and crap. Basically soda, and diet soda is crap. It has aspartame in it and you don't want that toxic crap in your body if…

It's your job as a parent to teach your child. In life and love and yes in food and health and fitness too. You need to stand up to this total you know what and make sure that your kid knows what "real food" is... No one else is gonna do it for you. That doesn't mean you banish every donut or kill every cupcake, but you…

as long as you count the calories it shouldn't be a big deal. just make sure that you are doing it accurately...

Yup. I do like beer too much...

She's a b.i.t.c... you know what. She wants what she wants. She's selfish and is using diet and self indulgence to control love with your grandaughter. Tell her that she "will" knock it off or you change your phone number and tell her to go to you know where. You are the mother. "You!" Set the standard for how things work…

I'm all for a breast lift. Maybe implants but I'm afraid of the expense. I just don't have that kind of money. So I'm thinking a lift, something that's a one time deal instead of implants that are a total maintenance issue.

I feel like this was my main problem too. My mom always overfed me. And she still does if I let her. I'm pissed that she's always had a 22 inch waist from eating like one meal a day meanwhile porking me up! I think she wanted it that way! I've had to take control of my life only now I have disgusting stretch marks and…

bump. still need advise...Should I just go back on the fat burners?

I'm having issues with stomach bloating. Frustrating...

Bump

Honestly I don't know anything about maintaining weight at your weight level, but I'd suggest salmon baked at least two to three times a week. That's what I did awhile ago with good results and I'm doing it again.

Thanks, I am gonna try working in more push ups and stuff with that, maybe at some point it'll help a little.

I just did a post about this. And I feel yeah. I lost 70 with more to go and my boobs are sagging to hell and back. Ugh. Frustrated. I am going to save up for the surgery. It's not an option. It's just depressing and I'm worried that when I'm done losing more that my stomach will need fixing too. It's feels like a…

lmao! :laugh:

I've gone back and forth on eating the yolk or doing say 3 egg whites and one whole egg. Honestly, I prefer the egg white, so I usually separate. It's true that the yolk has nutrients. I like that the egg whites are low calorie though.

I have a heart condition and I find that I can't run or jog or do the treadmill whatsoever, but the elliptical is low impact and you can get your heart rate up there without the impact on the knees, so I try to use it 30 minutes a day. It works great and I love it. Whatever works to get the cardio in, works. I say do what…

When I first started dieting last summer, I would bring tons of fruit. Like a mega fruit salad thinking it was super healthy, but actually I was eating too much in one sitting. I realized that like with all food, I had to eat in proper portion sizes. So basically 4 strawberries and a small handful of blueberries is a…

Good for you! And I can totally relate. I'm 28 and I feel like I blew my entire 20's by being fat. I didn't peruse the career that I really want because I was "going to lose weight" but didn't. I always get passed over by guys for skinny girls. Or listen to my size 2 friend tell me how a new guy she dated once bought her…

It took me about two months to move 15 pounds. I was way frustrated. But I had to learn portion control and just cut down on bad things bit by bit.

apple cider vinegar and balsamic vinegar, Also try gherkins pickles. They are salty and satisfying. I try to stay away from salty because it tends to make me crave more. I'm a sweet tooth gal...

I can relate. I often wake up to pasta, banana bread and other bad things that other ppl want me to eat or drink that I should be abstaining from. "One won't hurt" Or , " You can have a little" or "Oh who cares?". Yeah, says my skinny size 6 mother or my friend who's lost weight and looks perfect in her new pair of shorts…

That's amazing! Good job. I'm still not quite comfortable wearing shorts that really show my legs yet. But it's for sure one of my major goals.

Calories definitely do count! You can still eat healthy foods and gain weight from them by overeating the portion size. For instance, I have pretty much banished nuts from my snack group because I buy them, with no salt and then I eat them, handfuls at a time. And unfortunately I don't stop at a single serving of 7 almonds…

Brown rice is great, but the thing is you must measure it and know how much is a serving and eat a serving. You can easily eat 300 calories in brown rice and then if you put anything on that, you end up in the negative. So with rice, go brown but make sure you are eating exactly a single portion. Most ppl eat two to three…

I've recently been experimenting with some meat substitutes,I'm not trying to go vegan, but I find that meat is costly and prep and cut and everything is such a hassle. So I've been trying out a line of frozen meat substitutes from Gardein. I like it a lot. It tastes like real meat but has less fat, and has a controlled…

For me, when I first started, I found that I had to cut down in different ways. I went from drinking soda, to only drinking water, milk or orange juice. I went from drinking coffee with two sugars and milk, to one sugar and milk, and then to drinking it black, which was hard to get used to , but now I love it. With salt, I…
