Hang in there sweety, just start from scratch. The first 3 days of 'clean' eating are the hardest, I just went through the same thing, so I understand, and literally feel your pain. As for the loose skin, the only thing we can do is strength training to help tighten it up. I'm here for you, girl! You can handle this! =)

I had a similar experience at the park the other day, I ride the stationary bike for up to 45 minutes when I go, and this man walked by me a couple of times and the second time he ( bitterly) said, " still pedaling that bike, huh?" I simply told him, yes, I'm not getting too far though, am I? and I laughed it off. Don't…

Oh, no problem, anytime! If I stumble onto something good, I like to share it with others who may benefit from it as well.

www.thewalkingsite.com/thr.html has a few different ways that you can figure out your own personal heart rate for fat loss. I hope this helps! So happy for you, estas echando muchisimas ganas!

Hi, welcome! You're taking the first step to being a healthier you! So glad you're hear! Sorry to hear about your scare, my friend. Ask your doctor if a 1500 or 1200 calorie diet is right for you. I know it's sure working for me. It also helps if you chart everything on My Fitness Pal (MFP) that your going to eat first and…

What a transformation! You look absolutely terrific!!!!! CONGRATS! How'd u do it?

I think it depends on where your getting these carbs from. If you eat the right foods, they are healthy carbs. Between 50-100 carbs sounds about right, though. Good luck!

Hi, I'm Katy, welcome! I'd love to have you as a dedicated MFP buddy! This is only my second week, so I'm new too. I have lost @0 lbs before, and gained it all back and then some, being foolish. I want to train myself to eat healthy again, so far, so good. I look forward to getting to know you!=)

You go girl! You look fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had the same problem, only I don't get near as much exercise as you. You may just need to switch up your diet, try eating small portioned, healthy, regular food. Those shakes are fine when you're on the run, and have no time for breakfast, but are you eating enough? I'm sure you've heard that you're body goes into…

Oh, I love cottage cheese! I have never tried the already flavored kinds, but you can add sliced peaches, pineapple, strawberries, or most any other kind of fruit. You can also use a little bit in salad instead of dressing.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZIIIIING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO PROUD OF YOU TWO!!!

Ofcourse you can wear it, you Look beautiful! Congratulations baby girl, you worked so hard and, yes, you can rock a bikini again.

Wow! You look beautiful! You're very toned now, so remember, it's true- muscle weighs more than fat! So even tough the scale says you only lost 4 lbs, it's only because you've gained muscle! Keep up the good work, imagine what you'll look like in 2 more weeks!

AMAZING!!!!!! You looked pretty good in the pic on the right, and the middle pic, girl, you're a knock-out!

Welcome back! Almost all of us have been there, but the important thing is that you're back, which means you're ready to take the first step to getting in shape again. We're here for you.YOU CAN DO IT!

I'm sorry you're struggling. I can relate, I have also struggled with yoyo diets all through my twenties, and now I'm 31. I've learned to find a healthier drink, I used to be a big soda fan myself. Don't buy sodas, start trying different teas, and koolaids and use Stevia or Truvia, since they are the more natural…

Well, if you know that pictures of food are a trigger for you, than you are doing the right thing by putting it out there. You can never blame it on anyone else that you aren't strict on yourself. I just started exercising again, and just signed up for myfitnesspal 2 days ago, but I am more than serious about losing weight…

Don't despair, we've all been there. If you take a day off, DON'T STARVE YOURSELF, please! Biggest mistake, and I think you know that. Also, you don't have to do an insane workout every single day, try doing some moderate exercise, or just do some house work, that counts, too! If you plan your meals ahead of time, then you…

Hi, my name is Katy. I'm sorry to hear your story. No, if you lost that much weight, that fast, you would be starving yourself and end up gaining it all back when you finally couldn't starve yourself anymore. Please tell him you want to be healthy, not look like a "super model" who has no shape whatsoever anyway, lol.…

Hi, I'm Katy, new to the program, but am very happy to meet you. I send my condolences for the loss of your husband. Congrats on the grand child, and on quitting smoking. I know what you mean about being home all day, I had a back injury that's kept me out of work for almost a year. I'm here for you if you want a friend…

Hi, I'm Katy. I'm new. too. This is my first day. I started exercising again a couple of weeks ago, and I thought this site would be helpful in order to be held accountable and receive support and encouragement, as well as give it. I need to lose about 35 lbs. I believe that if we stick with it, not only will we lose…
