I once pushed myself too hard playing arcade dance games and promptly threw up in an adjacent trash can, In front of a crowd of onlookers. Not my proudest moment.

Finding exercise I enjoy really helps. I also treat it like any other obligation in my life--like, there's plenty of days I wake up and I don't WANT to go to work, I'd rather be doing other things, but I gotta go. Plus, it seems that actually getting to the gym is the hardest part. Once i go, I'm always glad I did. So I…

Dance Dance Revolution. Me and a bunch of my friends meet up at the arcade once or twice a week and kill it. Lol. A ton of fun, and I've met some great people too.

...and I'm sure after all that artificial sweetener, you'll be spending the rest of your day in the bathroom anyhow, and won't have time to eat. Maybe that's how the diet works. I mean it even has "Flush" in the name. :lol:

Today is a fasting day. Hoping it goes by quick lol

Clearly you've never competed in any kind of combat sport...

I use Workit, which comes with a whole bunch of different programs you can choose from, it's pretty cool. I'm running Starting Strength.

Same, just signed up at Anytime (I live in the USA too) and I love it.

My name's Nichole and I'm a cheese-a-holic. I refuse to buy packages of snack cheese anymore, because I will eat the whole bag by the end of the day. Lol

If I could successfully intuitive eat, then I wouldn't be fat in the first place lol. Calorie counting for me.

I wear basketball shorts. Dunno, leggings just make me feel self conscious and naked. Lol.

It depends. Short cardio sessions I prefer to do fasted, especially if it's early morning cause I can't bring myself to eat before 10am. But for long cardio sessions (3-4 hours sometimes), then yeah, gotta eat a couple hours before that or I get weak and shakey.

Hey, I'm 27 too! Looking to lose 40, is that close enough?

Idk man, I'm very grateful my boyfriend always wants to eat out... :lol:

I started lifting again and just finished the first week...I was sore the entire time. Lol. Foam roll, protein, all that good stuff. It'll go away after a couple days to a week.

I've been using a "vibration machine" for a couple years and I don't think it's helped with weight loss at all. :wink:

Depression/anxiety. Been off my antidepressant for a few weeks now and I actually feel better than when I was on it. It's still a struggle, but healthier living/therapy makes it more manageable.

Halo Top has saved my deficit more than once, lol. Also homemade bacon cheeseburgers.

All of it.

Rum and Diet Coke/Diet Ginger Ale was my favorite. Also Miller Light. ...but I don't drink anymore.

Monster Ultra Black and Sunrise are my favorite, and both 0 calories. I used to love cherry lime Xenergy (also 0), but I've only found it at one gas station by me and they stopped carrying it.

Yeah, and it's kind of annoying...I think the reason people say that is more to make themselves feel better about their weight lol. When it comes to family, I understand their concern though--I have 2 family members with EDs, so they're probably just on high alert.

I'm usually up at 5 because I have work at 7 (damn hour commute)...doesn't really affect my meals cause I don't usually eat breakfast til 930-10am anyway. I love it, I've always been a morning person...the only bad part is being done for the night at like 9pm lol

Ponytail plus bandana, to keep the hair/sweat out of my eyes usually works...and prevents me from dripping sweat all over the equipment lol.

I've always had a problem with the binge/restrict thing, so I personally don't like to bank calories--there's absolutely nothing wrong with it, I think its just more of a preference than anything. However, high intensity cardio days surprisingly don't leave me with much of an appetite so I don't usually hit my goal that…

Absolutely fine! I find it helps me stick to my diet better...cause then I don't binge on all the crap I cut out lol. My favorite are those 100 calorie Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal bars.

Because at this point I've made every single diet mistake under the sun, and realize it really IS as simple as "eat less, move more." Lol. I was seriously one of those people who thought the only way to lose weight was to do cardio every day, eat healthy, and only 1200 calories, and that lifting weights would make me…

Ocean County here! What's up?

I'm the same way, unfortunately... My problem is I work out alot, eat slightly under my calories, and don't eat back my exercise calories. So obviously after a few days I'm starving, I eat ALL THE FOOD, and the cycle continues. Urgh. Meal prepping helps a ton. I get lazy after a long day at work and by the time I get home,…

Eggs Almond Milk Their protein powder is way better than the crap I got at Wal-Mart, imo. Frozen vegetables are great. I got the California Mixed vegetables for 79 cents last time I was there. Chicken breast Ground beef I do all my shopping there.
