  • My Fitbit One does calculate the calories I burnt while sleeping whether I wear it at night or not. I have had it for about a month now and LOVE it!
  • I started walking as my main exercise a little over a month ago. I injured my knee and couldn't do anything else. My knee is healing but the walking seems to be the only exercise I need right now. I have a Fitbit and love it. I walk about 9-12 miles a day now between my walks and my job that keeps me on my feet and feel…
  • Feel free to add me. I have an open diary for friends and have been good at staying within my goal. I was in the same boat as you, eating way too much garbage every day. I log everything I eat and have been loosing weight steadily so far although it has always been hard in the past. I love reading my friends diaries and…
  • I have never been a breakfast eater but when I started trying to loose weight this time I have been forcing myself to eat within an hour of being up. I do find that I am consistently hungrier throughout the day when I eat breakfast but I think that is because I have actually kick started my metabolism, which is a good…
  • This is a great thread. I had enough of being morbidly obese when I started less than a month ago. I have slowly made changes to my lifestyle and refuse to give up. Getting healthy been at the forefront of my mind since I started; whereas in the past I buried the anxiety of being sick from the excess weight in eating more…
  • I love my Fitbit One! I have been using it for almost 3 days and it is really motivating me. I am definitely taking extra steps because of it and also eating a more appropriate amount of calories to loose the weight I need. I definitely want friends to push me http://www.fitbit.com/user/2DFBW2
  • Awesome post!
  • I have an extraordinarily annoying sweet tooth myself and also PCOS. It's a struggle. I think the insulin resistance that comes with the PCOS makes me crave sugar even more. If I don't have enough I feel faint and uneasy. Giving up processed sugars is going to be an ongoing problem I feel like, however, the best thing to…
  • I just started using my new NutriBullet a few days ago. For breakfast I have been having filling my cup halfway with Kale and then half an apple, a banana, a few strawberries, a piece of fresh ginger and a thick slice of pineapple. I started adding a protein powder also and spirulina. It is green but tastes like fruit to…
  • I also have a very hard time at night. I sit down and relax and all the sudden I want to eat everything. I have been trying to replace the bad food I'm used to munching on with good choices. I will eat carrots or an apple. I try to eat foods that will fill me up without the calories, fat and sugar. You should try not to…
  • I use my wii almost exclusively for getting up and moving around. I feel like I am playing a video game but am tricking myself into being active. I like using the wii balance board. I also find even when I don't want to exercise when I do turn on a dance game it will be hard to stop.
  • I have lots of weight to use and so far this community had been great for me. I want as many motivational friends as possible! Feel free to add me.
  • I haven't been tested but I am sure I am seriously gluten intolerant. I spent most of my life completely sick and always wondering why. I finally googled my symptoms all together and saw that I may be allergic to gluten. I gave it up and a few days later I was feeling good and within a month I felt like a brand new person.…
  • Hello! I also have PCOS and insulin resistance. I have struggled with it for about 12 years now. I have always had a hard time being thin and gave up for a long time trying to loose weight after I went on meds and gain about 40 pounds in a matter of 2 months. It was awful and I have not been able to loose the weight mainly…
  • How many hours before bed do you eat? When I am able to eat dinner earlier and eat smaller meals at night it is always pretty easy to lose weight. I find that means I need to have my last small meal around 5 or 6 hours before bed. Currently, I have this awful schedule that does not allow me to eat as early as I would like.…
  • Hi I am 31 and have a little under 80lbs to loose. I love to talk and need all the motivational friends I can get. Anyone is free to friend me.
  • I have had many moments in the last few years where I have had enough with my weight and have wanted a change. Recently however, I went to the doctor in the first time in years, and my blood pressure was through the roof. I have been avoiding the doctor for years because I know all they would say to me is that I am…
  • I am sick of loosing the same weight over and over again! Now I am heavier than ever and need a change. This is going to be a long and hard process that I have been avoiding for some time. I need all the support I can!
  • I have the same problem typically. If i do not see results right away I am all too happy to give up. I am hoping motivation this time helps. Feel free to add me as a friend!
  • This looks great! I am always looking for vegetarian dishes with actual flavor. I will try this out!!
  • I need to loose almost 80lbs. I need all the friends I can get. I also love helping others, in fact, I'm much better at helping people than myself.
  • I need the help also! I added you as a friend
  • Hello! I am also looking for support because I seem to quit things too easily. I figure from your username you are gluten free. I have been gluten free for health reasons for about 2 years now. I do find that if I want to enjoy bread products that gluten free items are making it harder for me to loose weight. Maybe we can…
