I started at the end of July 2013 at 206 pounds. I am currently 160 pounds and I am 5'5". Feel free to add me as friends for access to my diary and before/after photos. I am also a vegetarian and maintain a daily intake between 1200-1600 calories (although I try to aim for around 1200 and I do eat back any calories I lose…

Drink a lot of water. It helps. I have been very fortunate to not have loose skin.

For the 1st 15 pounds, not too much of a difference. However, now that I am almost at 20 lbs. lost, it seems that people who don't know me are nicer when I am shopping or strangers would talk to me. I don't think my personality has changed at all. I anticipate even more of a difference as the pounds come off.

If going vegetarian means that you will increase your fiber intake and eat more veggies, then great! However, I've seen some pretty unhealthy vegetarians that eat a lot of carbs. I'm a vegetarian and my diary is open for those that want to look at what I eat! I've been able to lose weight once I gave up eating so much…

I'm vegetarian and I have been pretty good about keeping about with the proteins/carbs/fats in my 1200 calorie diet. On days that I exercise, I sometimes do eat back the calories I burned from working out, but that's fine with it. I do struggle at times with going over on the sugar, but I figure for the most part, I should…

Well, Level 2 and Level 3 of 30DS was available via a link by a youtube user on youtube. Looks like it has been taken down. Level 2 is, however, available for rent on youtube for .99 cents. I would also check with your local library. I was able to check out a number of JIllian Michael's titles or at least put in a request…

I would add a slice of lemon in your glass of water or some fruit in a water bottle. There are many brands out there now with a separate section to hold the fruit and water on top. Adds slight taste to water without adding a lot of sugar or sweetness.

I don't have a dog, but have been thinking of getting one. How often would you walk/run with your dog? Has it helped those with dogs further their fitness goals?

What kind of fruit do you eat? Are there fruits you recommend over some for health content and optimizing weight loss?

I have been able to lose weight (8.2 pounds during month 1 and subsequently around 1.5 pounds per week) at a 1200 calorie diet (before my net calories which I use sometimes gained from exercising). However, I, too, go over, around 15g-25g per day in the sugar category and like you I don't eat many sweets. I burn about…

I am a 38C and I have been struggling with finding a good bra for working out and minimizing bounce. I tried Nike sports bra (racerback) in XL and thought it absorbed sweat well while keeping me cool and dry. However, it did not hold my bust well and it was on the thinner side. I have been more happy using my Size L…

Currently using 3lb weights. Will probably increase to 5lb weights soon. Have been doing the workout for about a week.

I'm in too! Thanks for coordinating!

5'5", Current Weight: 199, 25.5" upper thighs at largest point. Always had larger thighs (but firm) even when I was in very good shape and weighed a lot less. Also, I'm curious if anyone has different measurements for left and right side of their thighs?
