yay! I dont remember the last time I drank the stuff either :D

I feel it in my legs, they swell up all the time :-/

Sounds way too fatty to eat! I have used it in place of lotion though :D they say its great for the skin and hair as well

an ex coworker used to get annoyed when he saw me counting the almonds I would eat, he would always tell me to stop lol

are these all sales jobs? I want something easy, like stuffing envelopes lol

how did he come to the conclusion that you needed 1800 calories a day?

how do you know its everything in your salad? or could it be just one or some are causing the problem? are you adding dressing? I'm allergic to pineapple! it irritates my mouth like no other!

I think drinking caffeine is different for everyone, it does nothing to me, my mom and I oddly enough sleep better with caffeine lol

I had terrible mood swings with these, they did not help me at losing one bit of weight! After losing weight on exercise and diet alone, I no longer believe in magic pills!

Not eating back calories worked for me up until I went below 200lbs. I was stuck at 197 for the longest time :-/ Came here read about eating back exercise calories and decided to try it, the scale finally started to move again, very slowly but its moving! My daily calories change according to how much fat I have to lose, i…

Congrats, I still remember losing my first 8lbs, it totally motivated me :D

same here

This is correct! it is not 1 cal per gram

Days I don't workout, yes I am starving, I don't have those extra exercise calories to eat. I have to keep myself very busy, so that I dont think about food! PMS also makes me crave foods all the time, lasts about a week

Congrats! you look amazing!

lol

that must feel good! :D

awesome! and that is one cute green dress :D

you will have to depend on your diet alone, stick to it as much as possible :) good luck (((hug)))

My snacks seem to add up to the most calories

This!

I've given up way too many foods to list! One big favorite was spanish rice *drool* Has giving up these foods helped me, definitely! I look back now and realize I was eating way too many carbs which were all turning to fat, making me fat!

I get the whole deficit thing now! yay! but that last paragraph I am having a hard time understanding? I still have 32% body fat, my main goal is to get rid of it! you say, "You do not BURN FAT during your workouts, you burn cals" how are you not burning fat during workouts, if fat is also calories?

Congratulations! I'm sure your body appreciates it :D

It's all about what you are taking in, you can eat bad and still not eat enough calories, you may have been putting more calories in while eating healthy. And like most on here say, you can't eat unhealthy forever and expect a good outcome

I just started to run as well, I amazed myself by being able to run a full mile without stopping, i was never even able to do this in high school :D now I need to get more distance in, I do almost 3 miles in 37 minutes but no without walking a bit

lol

yes!

I feel it when my makeup and hair are done :D

I think I'm just a little addicted to it now, I want to see more weight come and I know how that will happen :) but I do have bad days, I just loooooooooove food!
