Someone probably already said it, but toast! or some crackers. Especially if you're feeling nauseous those always help me.

i don't either, but it's this little sticker you put on yourself before you tan, so it leaves a white mark in the shape of the sticker when you take it off.

just commenting so this gets added to my topics. i love avacado mmm.

oops forgot to post on monday. I didn't lose anything. My 21st birthday was on the 15th so I was in reno all weekend and I had some drinks and bday cake but ate pretty healthy besides that. Could've been worse at least I didn't gain anything lol.

my butt and legs! my stomach was the last place that got bigger though, and it's the first place that's shrinking. My butt and legs will probably be last in line.

I used to get the oven roasted chicken breast, but it just had too much sodium in it. Now when I go I usually get a veggie delite on Honey oat bread. Lettuce/tomato/olives/cucumber and vinegar. Sometimes I'll get provalone if i'm in the mood for cheese.

this site is great, much more simple than sparkpeople.

August 22nd, 2011 only a little over a year away lol

ugh same. I had a piece of the chocolate cake i bought my mom last night and even though it was within my calories it still made me feel nauseous after I was done.

tonight i'm having wheat pasta with broccoli 2oz of wheat pasta frozen pre-cut broccoli i can't believe it's not butter (light) shredded mozzarella cheese Boil the pasta for 10 minutes. While that's boiling put a small amount of butter in a pan with the broccoli. After the pasta is cooked, strain it, and add it to the pan…

that's awesome! I still have 1.5lbs to go til then.

I eat when i'm hungry. I sometimes don't get home from work until 10:30pm, and eating at night has never interfered with my weight loss. So if you're hungry, eat.

I usually give myself a couple days (but no more than 2!) because those first days I have really terrible cramps. After that they're just regular annoying cramps so I pop a couple midol and go work out anyways.

weighed in this morning at 281. down 2 pounds from last week. :)

someone on my friends list just got to 140 a few days ago.

i pretty much stick to vodka and diet soda. Or maybe a vodka and cranberry but ONLY if the juice is 100% juice, not one of those sugar-packed mixtures.

Hey I can't remember if i've posted to this group before or not. I'm pretty sure I haven't so i'd like to join lol. I'm Stephanie, 20 (21 next weekend!) I'm 5'11, started out at 300lbs and currently weigh 283. My goal is around 150-160, i'm not really sure yet.

I usually eat a protein plus powerbar once a week on sundays when I have an 8 hour work shift (retail!) and I don't think it's hindered me any.....2 per day probably would though lol.

i'm turning 21 in a week, and all my friends are coming home from college for summer soon, so i know this summer is gonna be hard. everything in moderation though. I guess i'm lucky my drink of choice is vodka because it has pretty low calories lol.

this happened to me in the beginning too. I think it was right around the 3rd week I gained 6lbs! I went on here and changed my 'goal weight' to my first mini-goal and it gave me more calories. The next week I was back to losing around 2lb/week again.

google the restaurant beforehand. 9 times out of 10 i can always find some kind of nutritional info online.

I also have around 150lbs to lose (well only around 130 now!) I've found what helps is to set smaller goals for yourself and focus on those first. Initially I had my weight loss ticker set so it showed i needed to lose 150lbs, but I changed it to 31lbs(my first goal) after a while and it really motivates me more to see…

exactly what i was going to say. You can still eat your exercise calories, the way the OP worded the post makes it sound like you shouldn't

Yep i did 30 minutes on the gazelle this morning, and I have a 5 hour work shift tonight (i work retail, so it's like a workout lol) On days where I don't have work I usually do an hour on the gazelle.

now take a picture of a healthy meal you would eat and send it back to her lol. I would be really pissed at her for that if i was you.

i turn 21 in about a week and i already know it's going to be hard lol. My friends are already anticipating me finally being able to go out with them on the weekends.

woah, you need to eat some more. 600cals/day is not healthy at all.

you look great! I just took my "before" pics yesterday.

i always tip (less for bad service), but I hate when servers act like they are entitled to it. And 15% is the highest i'll go. 20% seems like a little much to me. Also, idk why this $2/hour is being thrown around all over this post. I know min. wage depends on where you live, and there can't be that many people in this…

Are you eating all your calories? Drinking enough water? 9 times out of 10 when I see posts like this on here the person posting is eating <1200 cals per day (including exercise cals), so if that's the case you might want to think about eating more.
