YEAH!

I lost 1.5lbs thanks to a bad cold. But I like to think positive, so I am glad about the loss :)

I am invited to a birthday tonight and my biggest goal is: - no snacking on crap. I will allow myself one slice of cake and one sweet drink. But no more :)

If we have a next challenge I'm in! I have a goal fpr Dec, 21 - a friend of mine gets married and I want to be at 69kg (152lbs) FINALLY below 70. It's about .5kg / 1lb a week. If I manage to do that, I will have the goal to maintain that weight until 2015 and then continue dropping. :)

You are on fire! We can rock this!

Awesome! :) I am still 4-5 lbs away. But I am on my way!

todays goals for me: stay within calories no snacking at the bar tonight finally getting rid of that cold!

I think a challenge for christmas would be better :) I know myself, the best I can do over the christmas days is maintaining, so maybe it's more encouraging to go until christmas and then have some more time to gett off the christmas / new years pounds.

Saturday: - trink lots of tea - rest - get rid of the freaking sniffles - read the new "vegan baking magazine" I bought Sunday: - based on my sniffle-status - go on a walk again to get some fresh air, if I feel alright

One goal left for today: - After making a rather hard decision today I really have to stay strong not to drink lots of wine later in the bar

I don't know the jawbone up, but I had the fitbit flex for a month last year. What annoyed me the most was the thing that I had to wear it on my wrist. I got lots of "false steps" just because I moved my arm. I thought of getting the fitbit zip but I was missing some functions there. Now I got myself a Withings Pulse O2 -…

Not many people know this, but most swimsuits come with a huge extra set of "feeling like a whale". No, seriously - don't worry! Probably all of us feel the same - and yet, probably noone will care.

Just remove the sugar section from your diary. I never look at my sugar levels, because I know I'd be over everytime I have a fruit salad.

Oh, I have no idea what the english term is... it's the most famous fast food here in Germany

Biggest goal for today: - when going to the bar tonight, no unhealthy snacking! Other goals: - stick to my planned meals - look up some sports classes at university (I need to move my a...)

You can get used to very small amounts of water, which doesn't mean your body doesn't need more. You could try adding some small amounts of water during the day - like: getting up in the morning, having "two shots" of water. Then with breakfast, half a glass of water... and so on. You will probably have to take small steps…

I have to adjust my starting weight, because after my vacation I'm at a new highest weight... hrmf.. but hey, at least there's a lot of new motivation ;)

I can also recommend StrongLifts. I started it back in April and it's a great program :)

Hey there, I am Juli, 23 and a student from Germany. I was always chubby, never "really" overweight (like, no one ever felt the need to say "that child there should keep an eye on what it eats"). When I moved out t study 4 years ago, I realized how bad my eating habits were. My problem was never the usual meals, my mom…

Since I switched to 3x5 it takes me around 35-50 minutes (basic reason to switch. 5x5 took me 80-100min)

You could try StrongLifts 5x5 - it's a great program for beginners, at the moment I am 13 weeks into it. Lifting helps you retain muscle as you lose weight and, oh and this is the big part: It makes you feel strong, confident and invincible :)

I always buy: Tomatoes Light Mozzarella Ham Chicken breast frozen veggies apples or bananas frozen fruits greek yogurt

Light Mozzarella (having it right now) Chicken breast Beef Vegan proteins: red lentils kidney beans also: Optimum Nutrition Double Rich Chocolate Powder :) love it

Wodka - Martini because it skips the lemonade / soda / juice part. :) If you like it (like me) it's a great drink :)

Chucks, becaue they feel perfect :)

black, but mixed with cold water until it's lukewarm :)

I don't think it's that big of a deal. I usually work out with my BF and when I am doing A he does B. So sometimes, depending on how "fast" we are, I change the order. (Like, if he is still using our rack, I obviously can't do my bench presses in there, so I just do rows). So far, I don't have any problems.

My typical breakfast is: 20g of Optimum Nutrition Double Rich Chocolate Protein Powder mixed with 100g of 2% greek yogurt and then I add oats or nuts or 25g of a protein cereal I found here in the store. :)

around .5l (2 cups) water, one cup of coffee, and sometimes a small glas of juice.

I lift in kg ;) ANd congrats on the deadlift! :)
