I will start the program again... for the third time!!! I always drop it around week 7, don't know why. I need to step up my cardio game, so this will do it for me starting today.

If you're planning on exercising and watching what your eat, you'll be fine, and any weight you gain will most likely be water instead instead of actual fat. Enjoy your vacation, don't over stress about it. :)

Okay, you messed up once. Just go on with your regular eating. One single meal doesn't really mean anything if you don't let it. it won't make any difference, don't be so hard on yourself.

I drink a lot of water during the day when I'm at work. Somehow it gets more difficult when I'm home. What I do is I have this tall glass (it says 26oz). It's here on my desk so every time I look at it I have some water. When it gets empty, then i go get more. I usually refill it three times during the day. I'm getting…

I've been in this plateau for a month. Apparently this week I will see results, but my hopes are not to high. My trainer is very positive but I was so frustrated last week. Good thing is that my eating habits have changed sooo much that I didn't let that frustration sabotage and although I didn't meet my macros (was over…

I love lifting weights. Heavy weights. It makes me feel strong and powerful. I hate, HATE cardio. I hate the stair-master, the elliptical, the stationary bike.. I hate zumba, I hate cardio pump things, I hate cycling... I HATE cardio. My trainer told me to do 3 HIIT sessions a week. It's not so bad because time flies when…

Dan, you are so awesome!!! Here's a new one. We wear uniforms at work. Last uniforms were pants and a Chacabana (A Chacabana is a type of shirt you use outside of the pants [not sure if I'm saying this correctly]). It was perfect because I didn't have to tuck it in. Honestly, I don't remember the last time I could use a…

Leanna, living on the road must be awesome!!! I love road trips! The boyfriend and I decided to go out and get to know our country this year... I think it's embarrassing saying I've been to Germany but still don't know places that are just 4 hours from home. And thank you, CRody44! My dad always says "If you speak some…

Well, hello :) What to call me: Ignaura or Iggy or Ig Birthday: October 21st, and I'm 31 Where I'm from: The center of the Caribbean, Dominican Republic. Weight loss goals: Hmmmm... I don't have an actual goal. I currently want to get to 200lb (I'm 220 now) and see what will come after that. My maxim: "If you don't know…

My weight fluctuates a lot and its frustrating. I mean, I weigh in monday morning to find +3lbs than sunday morning. I know I didn't gain 3lbs overnight, but, come on!!!

I track macros and can fit whatever I want... however I choose to eat healthy foods most of the times and avoid processed foods and eat a lot of veggies and some fruit. I do have the casual pizza, hamburger, cereal, eat... but those are not my everyday choices. I've lost over 30lbs now.

Don't feel terrible. We all have bad days. Bad days will happen. What you have to do is brush off the dust and keep going. If you let one bad day become another bad day and then a bad month, then you will never be able to achieve your goals. Don't over stress about it. Just keep going and push yourself to have a great day…

I have the EatSmart one, got it from amazon for less than $20. It has the "Tare" option to zero the weight after yo place a plate or a plastic bowl on it. It also measures in lbs, oz, grams and kgs, up to 11lbs.

Thing is, there's people who really see it that way, and actually do it that way... and have junk for breakfast, lunch and dinner. If you are having the occasional cheeseburger, or the daily Oreo for dessert, along with veggies, meat, nuts, etc its all good... but, when some people say that a calorie is a calorie, they say…

You mean 1*F? -178C?!?!?!?!? :O :O :O How do people survive with that kind of cold?!?!?!?! #LifeInTheTropics

I think the same. I'm definitely against eliminating something completely, I am a Fruity Pebbles junkie and won't stop having it!! i just think that there's much more than just junk food.

Okay, how many times are you going to open the same "part 2" topic? Just wondering...

I just don't understand why people would rather have 1,500 of junk that in the end will do more harm than good to your health than eating 1,500 of tasty, healthy food that will make you a healthier human being. Why would I like to eat 1,000 at one sitting on McDonalds instead of 1,000 calories of meat, veggies, nuts, and…

Pre-workout meal - 5:45AM Breakfast - After working out Lunch - somewhere between 12:30 and 1:30 Snack - whenever I'm hungry, usually around 5PM Dinner - Whenever it is ready, usually around 9:00PM

You need to eat in order to produce enough breast milk to feed your baby.

Hello Binze, welcome to the group! I tried a to lose weight a couple of times too (more than couple, actually), and just as you said, always something happened, or I just got tired or everything or just had one cheat meal and never got back on track. I believe this is something that will always happen if we see a "diet" or…

I believe thats what the South Beach diet is about. I tried it once and lost 40pounds in six months, but I started missing my carbs and really didn't learn much about how to eat, so I gained all the weight back.

I thought the same until a friend of mine (she's a cook specialized in healthy food) told me that way you cook the meat does affect the nutritional value. She explained something about the temperature and the cooking times. And as a example she told me that grilled chicken breast has more protein per gram than baked. I…

I drink coffee and sometimes tea

I found myself wanting to try different things, physical stuff, like Yoga and boxing. And I;m not doing this stuff to burn more calories, but just because I want to be active, it's like my body is asking me to do more stuff..

I had pasta a few days ago after months without having any. I had 3/4 cup (measured before cooking) and it was filling enough. Added some veggies and chicken. it was a great meal. And rice... well,, I eat rice everyday, usually one cup

Yees!1!!

I had to look it up too lol

Please, don't think I'm weird, but I measure my belly with my palms. I put my open hand under my belly (pinky finger touching my skin) and see how many fingers it covers. When I started, back in may, my belly covered 4 fingers... now just one <3

I don't have cravings and when I'm hungry, I eat. You can have some fruit, something like grapefruit or berries, which add very little calories. Coffee also helps.
