BINGE EATING. Ugh. I feel your pain. I'm fine during the day. I stay on track and make good choices. About an hour after dinner I wander back into my kitchen and go nuts. I promise myself that I will just have a little snack. We keep NO junk food in the house. Since there are not ready made sugary snacks I eat what I can…

I'm a recovering diet soda addicted! It's so bad for you. My husband ditched soda a year ago and has encouraged me to do the same. I finally came around. It's been a month and a half (with 3 relapses). Feel good though!

Awesome ladies! We all have the hardest job on Earth and it's encouraging to hear other SAHM's being motivated. I think motivation is the main issue for me. I easily excuse myself from working out with the argument that I have been going hard all day long. It is important to take care of yourself too and I'm really trying…

When my girls were little I joined gyms with child care. I know that feeling of being more engaged in your workout when you are alone. Now I do 30 day shred. It's 20 minutes but intense. I try to go to the gym before or after I make dinner too. Some days are easier than others. As for our snacks, we don't eat any junk.…

Calories are calories. If you consume 1740 cals. a day in junk you are still hitting your goal. HOWEVER, you are putting a ton of sugar and fat into your body. You won't function as well. You can have chocolate everyday but balance it with nutrient dense foods.

I make ALL of my meals from Skinnytaste.com. I used to struggle with making healthy meals for my family of 6. I HATED cooking dinner. I even brought it up in therapy!! It stressed me out that much. I now cook every night and love it. My fridge is stocked with great stuff and I never struggle with what to make. Message me…

You sound super motivated and that is half the battle! You can also try cycling on your off days. A stationary bike is good. Cycling really helps running! It increases your cardio and build leg muscle. Good luck and congrats on your upcoming graduation!

I get blood tests through my doc to know what I'm deficient in. Then there is no guessing. Vitamins and minerals can definitely play a crucial role in your overall health. But, know what you actually need. They can't define muscle or cut out fat, sugar or extra calories. They won't negate poor choices like not staying…

debby, I plan all of my meals from Skinnytaste.com. They are recipes, so you will have to cook more, but they are delicious. When eating out socially be very aware of everything you are eating and drinking. Go without cheese, dip your fork into your salad dressing before each bite of salad instead of pouring it on and…

Hi Everyone ! New here. Something to also consider is your vitamin and mineral levels. Mine were low and adding supplements helped revive me. I was acutely anemic and low in B12 and vitamin D. Get your doc to run some labs. It could be a very simple fix. And a huge congrats on your weight loss! 12 pounds is a lot of…

Hi! I just joined today. I have 4 daughters (13, 10, 7 and 5) and have been married for almost 15 years. I'm going back to school for nursing since ALL of my kids will FINALLY be in school!! I check in at the tender age of 34 (young bride and mom). I have NEVER had a weight issue until August of 2013. In September I went…
