that is a good point. I haven't been accurately logging these past few months up until the past 2 weeks, so i honestly haven't seen any real results yet. with vacation and just lack of willpower in the past, I've been losing and gaining the same 5 pounds but I've had a pretty good couple weeks so i think it would…

yeah I think that's a good idea, i'll give it a shot. Thank you!

oh yeah I looooove my carbs. honestly I think I'm still learning when I'm hungry and when I'm bored (been at it for a year and still don't know haha.) I feel like I could ALWAYS eat more, so sometimes im not too sure if its because I'm actually hungry or because I just want to taste food. so I got excited when I found out…

thanks so much for the helpful info! I will check that page out right now. congrats on your successes!!

that sounds PERFECT to me haha. I think I will just stick to around 1600 instead of the 1800 though, I wanted to see if anyone else thought that number was a bit high for my stats
-
oh and I just meant I work a desk job- I looooove me some exercise! I take hikes in the woods 5 days a week and usually burn around 400-900 calories, which I measure with my polar hrm!
-
that seemed way too high to me too haha. I could alllllways eat more food haha but in general I do find myself feeling hungry at some points during the day
-

unfortunately there aren't many secrets to this- its gonna take serious willpower. but here are some tips that have helped me- 1. I used to binge on junk at night, so now I set aside a good chunk of my calories to eat later in the evening. i'll have pretzel chips, salsa, string cheese, a fiber one brownie, maybe half a…

dont rush it. i promise you, i know you want it to come off but please be careful. its not recommended to eat less that 1200, im at 1420 and i'm steadily losing weight. if you keep this up you will lose muscle, feel fatigued, and do some serious damage to your body
-
a small portion compared to a normal sized portion usually does the trick for me. even if the food ends up being high in calories, fat, ect. at least its not a heaping plate full!

i made a fitness instagram to keep me accountable and i talk to as many friends as possible on here every day. i sift through the website and read success stories every day. you have to immerse yourself in it. i like to make pictures with inspirational quotes to hang on my fridge, too. my favorite is 'imagine yourself 6…

even for people who are bedridden, i've seen documentaries where they were able to lose the weight just by simply raising their arms up and down while sitting for exercise (as well as a slight calorie deficit.) idk though i don't know how it feels for the people who have to consider WLS. i will always be a firm believer in…

ME-15 binge-8 last night i watched lord of the rings for the first time and DIDN'T eat a whole bag of potato chips in the process haha. i stuck to my fiber one brownie and called it a night :)

I love this!! this is exactly what I'm doing right now! work 8-5 today and I packed a lunch, wanted to eat it at 8:05 lol but so far I've only eaten the few snacks I brought along! still have a sandwich, pretzel thins, cheese AND a fiber one brownie! the waiting game is so hard lol

-
this is fantastic! the little things are always so important. today i told myself to man up and took a nice long hike in the woods before work. it definitely improved my mood at work (which is something that has totally taken control of my life, I'm not the biggest fan of my job sometimes.) i love the benefits of a healthy…

I got mine at wal mart! it is a little pricey but i believe its worth it

I looooove pb2, its definitely helped me with managing my calories. I like it on my lenders cinnamon raisin bagels (lenders are the best, they're smaller and usually average out to around 200-220 calories compared to 280-300) but i'll also use it with carrots, celery, crackers, you name it! it honestly tastes the exact…
