I lost 8lb in the first round (3 weeks) with just the cups (not following the fitness plan). It's neat because you can still have treats and alcohol, but on occasion and in specific quantities. I like that it taught me how many portions of veggies/fruit/protein/oils/etc to eat each day and how big those portions should be.…

I turned 30 on Dec 2. I just turned around and added most of you as friends. Hope you don't mind!

I also lost 40lb after my last baby and gained about 15lb back over the last year. I turned 30 last week, so my goal is to hit 130s this year. I also have 3 kidlets.

I never feel full. Feeling full is uncomfortable for me and a sign that I've overdone it. I can feel satisfied on 1200, though. I divide my food into 200cal increments. So 200cal 6x a day, or 200cal 4x with a 400cal dinner, or however I want to break it up. On days I hit the gym, I eat back some of my exercise calories.…

My first half is 5/17. I'm always looking for more friends!

October 15th, for me! I was working with a reproductive endocrinologist to get pregnant, but I actually got pregnant on my own this cycle, so I'll have to wait until I here from her to know if I should move on to a OB or stick with the RE for a bit. I attribute getting pregnant to getting more active and watching what I…

I totally weigh every day. It's part of my morning routine. I like to see the small changes. I am down .2 of a pound from yesterday. It keeps me motivated, like I must be doing something right, so I better keep at it! I know that the scale can change a whole lot in the course of a day, so I give myself some leeway. I just…

Tablespoon of peanut butter.

This is absolutely true for me,too. I literally cannot give into a craving for bread/potatoes/rice/starchy carbs. If I do, I end up bingeing. The last three times I ate bread, I ate 2500+ calories over my goal for the day. I have no off button with breads. More power to those who can give in just a little! The worst is…

I could use a buddy! I started with a 45lb loss goal, but I'm down 10lb now. I am also trying to get pregnant. I would love to commiserate.

I took my kid out for her birthday to Village Inn. I promised her dessert, so I looked up the calories before we got there. The carrot cake had something like 1150 cal, 85 carb, and 45 fat. I was so surprised! The best dessert they offered was the cheesecake at 500 cal. We got Orange Julius instead.

I got my kids to join in. My toddler is in a copying faze and wants to do everything Mommy does. If I'm on the yoga mat, he wants to be on the yoga mat. I give him something light that he can pretend is a weight when I get out mine. He'll crawl onto my back when I'm doing planks. I've even used him as a weight. I get my 10…

I either eat oatmeal with peanut butter, poached eggs and bacon, or have a protein shake. I only drink coffee after breakfast if I'm getting hungry before lunch.

I am in the process of being diagnosed for PCOS. I'm just waiting to hear back about the blood work, but my ultrasounds was consistent with PCOS. I adjusted my diet to exclude processed carbs, and I have found it's helped me. I'd love to make friends!

My mom and I have very similar eating addictions, so I constantly talk to her about it. My husband knows, too, and is amazingly supportive. I talk to my co-worker about it a lot because he has lost 40+lb doing Keto, and my endocrinologist recommended a low carb diet to manage some health issues I have. I just tell my…

I lost my baby weight pretty quickly, but I also put it back on just as fast. My kid will be 2 soon, and I am finally back to my pre-pregnancy weight. Now I have to work off my newly wed weight! I've got 30lb to get back to where I was when my husband and I met.
