  • Exactly the same lol
  • I really needed this today, thank you!
  • Digestion? My stomach does the same thing. I can decifer between hungry growls and digestion growls. You may still be hungry (Idk anything about how your body works), but 45 min after lunch? It doesn't seem likely.
  • 1 cup Fage 0% 2 Tbsp PB2 2 tsp sweetener of choice Mix all together and dip an apple in it. Yummy, creamy, peanut buttery goodness!
  • I've lost a little over 65 lbs despite what my ticker says. People are starting to notice and ask me, "What have you been doing to lose so much weight?". My answer is usually "I work out and eat at a calorie deficit, but the only reason I exercise is so I can eat more". Now that being said I do think you should workout to…
  • I've always had huge, very muscular calves/legs. When I was younger my mom called them my softball legs (and occasionally still does). I learned to love and for some reason guys are infatuated with them, so I guess they're not all that bad haha.
  • If you actually wanna win yall should do it by measurements instead of weight loss. You can start lifting heavy and possibly lose more inches than them, but if they're significantly heavier than you, you have no shot. (Sorry to tell ya)... Get into a healthy routine and work your *kitten* off not only in the gym, but the…
  • Eat more protein. Greek yogurt, almonds, protein shakes after a weight lifting workout, peanut butter, turkey, chicken, steak, fish, any kind of meat really. It will keep you full for longer, I can eat a cup of greek yogurt and a tbsp of peanut butter and be full until dinner if I eat it at lunch with an apple or some kind…
  • How many calories a day are you eating?
  • When 3 different people I have known for a good portion of my life don't recognize me until I start talking. Also, getting carded for beer and getting told I look nothing like my ID and I can't buy it lol. I guess it's time to update my drivers license!
  • Not technically an "after" yet, but I have come a very long way! 40lbs to go before I hit my first goal weight. Wish me luck! Congratulations to all of you, yall look incredible!!! Keep it up :wink:
  • Still have 40 lbs to my first goal weight, but things are looking pretty awesome! Congradulations to everyone else on their amazing progress! Edited because I can never post pics right on here lol.
  • Just make some good choices and splurge a little, it's your vacation! I just got back from FL and I had "gained" 10 lbs, within a week I was back down to normal (all water weight). I ate what I wanted, but still used portion control as a rule of thumb. Eat till you're full not gorged. You'll be fine, just go back to normal…
  • SW-218 April 9-213 April 16-210 April 23-207 May 2-206 May 8-202 May 15-200 18 lbs lost 2 left. Won't be logging in to post next week I'll be on vacation, but wish me luck that I at least don't gain while I'm away!
  • Taste buds change every 7 years, or so I've been told. I love a ton of food now that I hated in my childhood years. Try all the foods!:drinker:
  • If I wasn't at work I would take a picture of my calves and thighs to make you feel better lol. Even though I am nowhere close to being 130 lbs my legs are the only things that are all muscle on me and they're huge! embrace it, learn to love them and don't worry about being a size 8 I would kill to be that tiny right now!…
  • Fixed it for you :D
  • I've never personally tried it, but a lot of people substitute pasta with spaghetti squash. If I thought I ever needed to substitue it I would try it, but I tend to be able to fit everything in my day accordingly.
  • SW-218 April 9-213 April 16-210 April 23-207 May 2-206 May 8-202 16 lbs down, 4 to go! ONEderland is so close I can taste it!
  • No medical condition here, but I do try and limit my sodium intake for the sole reason that I don't like being bloated all the time. I do agree that restricting all delicious carbs and sugars is a sin and people should realize that's not what's making them fat. :drinker: Also, I see all the bickering and I'm sitting back…
  • 1 piece of Oroweat Healthful toast 80 cal 1 Tbsp Jif PB 95 cal 2 slices Jenni-O turkey bacon 60 cal 1 egg (I like mine soft boiled in the mornings) 70 cal 100 g fresh strawberries 32 cal 337 calories for your fruit, grains, proteins, and fats...You're welcome ETA: You could also have a bowl of oatmeal with some…
  • My plan of attack for vacation (which is in 10 days!) is to share meals with my mom who is going with me. I'm going to the Florida Keys so good thing about that is a lot of fresh seafood options, but still need to watch my portions. I am prepared to gain, but hopefully will maintain. FINGERS CROSSED! lol All you can do is…
  • If you have loose skin, you have loose skin. Usually surgery is the only thing that can fix it, sometimes it'll tighten up on it's own given the factors age, amount of weightloss, how fast you lost it ect. I think strength training along with your cardio regimen is great, whether or not you're in the process of losing…
  • Bump! Always wanted to know this.
  • Measure the spoon first then get your peanut butter and deduct what the spoon weighed...No mess and you already have a spoonful of peanut butter to munch on lol.
  • Does no one drink milk in the mornings anymore? Honestly all that I ever drink anymore is water, coffee, lemonade, and on occasion vodka. If I could trust myself to only have a cup of real whole milk at a time I'd drink that too, but unfortunately I tend to wanna chug the whole jug. (Grew up with milk at every meal...LOVE…
  • I'm on the 4th week of c25k, tomorrow will be my 2nd day. Yesterday was brutal, let me tell you! I had to go as slow as possible because my HRM kept yelling at me that my heart rate was too high, so I listened and it made it so much better. Even if you're going slow you're still making progress. At the end of my run I like…
  • An air conditioner...I'm kinda wishing I started at a higher weight so I could lose a whole Arnold Schwarzenegger lmfao! ETA: My ticker isn't my total weight lost, just when I started on MFP.
  • Forgot to post on Wednesday, but I'm here now! lol SW-218 April 9-213 April 16-210 April 23-207 May 2-206 12 lbs lost 8 lbs left to go!
  • I used to be in track and I threw the shot and disc and was in no way a runner AT ALL! We always had what we called the "fat man relay" which was nothing but throwers running a relay race against each other. I was on a team with 3 really really really fast guys who were and still are nothing but muscle, and then theres…
