I do both. It depends on whats going on that day... Days when I work 10-12 hrs, I make sure to get 2-3 big meals, I don't have time on those days for snacking. On my days off, when I'm around the house or just out and about, I snack all day and have small meals. It just depends really on whats going on that day...

I'm not a big egg fan, when I do eat them, they have to be completely cooked hard, no soft or running anything I don't like raw onion, but I loved them cooked I hate cooked bell pepper but will eat them raw I don't eat organ meat, it just grosses me out. sushi is to be eaten with chops sticks or with your fingers NOT a…

I've been running only about 6-7 months. but I'll put my two cents in just because I wish someone had with me when I was starting... 1. Shoes: I use Asics, You can get them for around 100-150. I honestly think they are worth the money. I started running with just my regular everyday kind of tennis shoe, and that was just…

I'm 135 and on the elliptical I burn about 100 cals per mile I do. I use a hrm now, but mpf is semiclose most of the time, at least to me it is....

I wear track/wind pants when its cold, no issues yet...

Its a mixed bag. I have some people in my life that are very negative, and some that are super positive.... I just choose to "TRY" not to let the bad bother me... I also try not to talk about it to people who arent trying for similar lifestyles.

1. -10lbs 2. size 6 (i'm an 8 right now) 3. running outside (treadmill only right now) 4. 3+ mile runs every run (2.5 miles right now) 5. start other non-cardio exercise (not sure what yet)

Thank you for sharing! Now I need to track this book down... :-)

When I started 6 months ago I could barely finish a mile in like 16 mins... Right now I'm at about 10:30 a mile, but i'm not all outting it because my goals arent just a single mile. I want to be about to do a 5k without stopping. I can manitain about 10.50 not-stop for 2.5-3miles... Eventually my goal would be 10 minute…

5'4, 28, SW 165(mfp -since July) 172(beginning of the year), CW 144, GW 135-130... When I was in HS I weighed about 115-120, and I wasnt happy with myself, I was happiest in the mid-high 120s, so my goal is a little high.

I went to a running store, I got Asics, with inserts and I love them. To me they were totally worth the price... No more leg/knee/hip pains...

I love my Asics. I start getting really bad shin splints. I did a TON of research and it came down to Asics or Brooks. I think alot depends on if you have any issues and what not... Go to a running store and not a store at the mall or some place like that

I'm 5'4, about 150/149, I do 1200 on days I dont workout or do lots on activities. On days that I do workout and what not, I probably do closer 1500, depending on what i do. 1200 is very do able if youre smart about. Stay away from fried, starch/carbs, and basically calorie dense food. My biggest problem when i first…

Protein helps me out... I also eat like 5 or 6 times a day.. 3 meals and 3 snacks...

I think we've all been there at some point... The first week was a nightmare for me... It was a HUGE change in lifestyle, but I got used to it... then about a month in I made a terrible mistake, and I ordered something without looking up the menu first. I ate it, and looked up the calories afterwards, I had consumed like…

according to this site, it seems my boobs are BIGGER than I thought... Idk if Im doing something wrong either FML its hard enough finding a bra, if this is right, it'll be even harder!!! :(

What kind of weights? I heard push ups are good, and back strengthing?

I dont think any colleges (even the ones that offer any kind of health care) would cover something like that... Not in the U.S. at least... but idk where the OP is from...

I'm going to blame genetics for my bust... Even at my thinnest I was 34D... Right now Im 36DDD, and Im praying I can get back into 36DD soon. Its a really big pain for me, has always been. I do think about a reduction from time to time. and it may be worth paying out of pocket, still thinking it over... Anyways, back…

are there anymore south texas people? It seems like most people are from "big" cities...

Thanks! Accepted! P.S. I love looking at everyone's book lists... It always gives me ideas...

I use one in the morning because im not a breakfast person, I just need a kick start, and this way i'm dont binge out at lunch... but i've only been doing it a couple of days, so far so good...

I have one, Same username as here... feel free to add me... NO JUDGING! oh and I read ALOT....

I'll gain 1-2 lbs at the beginning, but by the next week weigh in i'll have lost all of it and then some... Its totally normal...

*bump*

I forgot about that, my goal is .5-1 lbs a week... anything more than that is not doable for me... I eat, and I love it, and I really could not do this if I wasnt able to eat...

Hi! Im 28, and 5'4', when I started I was 172 and my GW is 135... So Im in the same boat as you are... The first 2 weeks I did 1500 (to get used to it), and now I'm doing 1200... I've seen great result with that. On days I dont workout I stick to my 1200 a day goal, on days where I do hit the gym or do a lot activity, I…

I'm in south Texas... junk food is a weakness for me :(

well, i made several different types of goals. I made weight lost goals, workout goals, and diet goals. I write them all down in a notebook, that way they arent just said, they are there in black (or pink) and white. A couple of generalized ones would be drink more water, workout "x" amount of times, cut "x" food/drink out…

Once a week, first thing in the morning after I do my business but before my shower (I have really long hair, and wet hair weighs alot). Then I put the scale away under the sink so I cant see it. I do that so I wont step on the scale everytime I walk into the bathroom. I cant handle the daily ups and downs, it sorta…
