If you don't log the walking and whatnot, just change your activity level to moderately active or whatever you think fits.(If it's not there already) It's important in making sure you're not eating too little.

intermittent fasting has helped me deal with self control issues, drinking a ton of water ( feel like crap if i don't), being able to eat the things i like in moderation <---that one is huge, i would die without chocolate, and checking out success stories. I am so super motivated by seeing other people succeed. :)

exercise gives me wicked headaches. maybe it's that?

Every time I work out, I leave feeling so much larger than I did going in. ): I actually don't enjoy working out because I feel like a lard after I get home and take a shower. Walking is the only thing that makes me feel leaner and stronger and whatever.

popcorn is my dietsaver. :)

I alternate between 1200 and 1500, zigzagging I suppose. I am hoping to lose 50 pounds to start with, and see how I feel there. :) I'm 5' 10", around 200 pounds, and hold my weight ridiculously well, so I'm not sure exactly how much I need to lose to be at my ideal shape.

I too, was really big at 13, booo childhood obesity. i was wondering how tall you are? & of course, congratulations on the weight loss, keep it up! :)

I would just like to say kudos to you for taking responsibility for you daughter's health. That is truly wonderful. My own mother did not do that until I was veerryy overweight, and she was very harsh and not very helpful. It's a touchy thing to try and help a daughter, so best of luck. :)

Walked out of the house twice yesterday, once for the post office and another to go shopping, and got hit on both times :) needless to say, my boyfriend wasn't quite as happy about this nsv.

Hey! I'm going to college this fall, graduated from high school a semester early and am looking to lose some weight before college, but you can definitely add me as a friend. :) I'll do my best to be supportive and motivational lol

i'm a sucker for thin, tall guys :)

So, here are some examples of my mom's awesome diet advice that made me want to jump up and strangle her. #1: Fried foods and frozen pizzas and hot pockets are healthy and good for you. So is fast food. #2: Mountain dew is ok to drink all day with no water. #3: No need to buy fruit or veggies. All I needed to do was cut…

I do the same thing. Helps me stay on track during the week. :) I don't have a scale, so I don't know how much weight I'm losing, but I definitely feel thinner and healthier, so it's working for me.

I watched fathead awhile ago, and decided i was going to lower my carbs. I told my boyfriend and he went on a rampage, finding links upon links to different websites claiming how awesome carbs are. I wasn't even going to cut them out completely, just /lower/ them. ugh. the other night we watched fathead together, and now…

Whenever i get addicted to something like diet soda, it doesn't go away until i become addicted to something else. D: good luck

ugh i do this. unfortunately i dont have a cure yet lol. I think my boyfriend coming home and eating everything in front of me miight have something to do with it, but i'm not sure. Either way, i suck at self control :p

you inspire me! i have similar goals, this is amaaziing. know that you've helped me, thank you :)

my food diary would drive you crazy..lol :s

hey! i started at about 212, am 5'10", totally suck at exercising due to laziness AND ditched a couple other websites to join this one. best of luck to you! you can friend me if you'd like, it's very nice to see someone with similar body type/goals. :)

I do that! i think it's just good planning on our part :)

ugh i have absolutely no control when tom hits..i have zero advice because i stuff my face :s

I love it. I really agree with the overall message.

Posting so I can find this Monday! Have to go buy a scale tomorrow and break out the tape measure thingy [:

For a creative writing class I was asked to pick a pen name, so I choose b.c. pie...short for banana cream pie. I don't even like banana cream pie, not sure why I like the name so much.

I just moved to San Diego and there is caloric information posted EVERYWHERE. It's insane. It's posted on the outside of places. I'm from WI and where I lived there wasn't caloric information anywhere...you'd be lucky to get it if you asked lol.

hehe i want your 'before' dress. its so pretty! Also, you look amazing! great job, very inspiring :)

aww now i want pickles

oh wow kudos to you! I've been smoking cigs forever and I tried hookah recently...and found it unsatisfying :s

If I spent as much time at the gym as I did thinking about going to the gym, or rather, convincing myself not to go there...I would probably already be at my goal weight. :p

My best friend is tiiiiny and she smokes pot all the time. I've smoked a few times and I always want to just stuff my face. :p wish i could smoke and not want to eat the whole damn house.
