  • Ashamed of yourself???? You should be proud of yourself!!! You got out of home, and you're on the right track! Take it at your own pace, you don't have to prove anything to anybody. 20 min today, 30 min tomorrow... Did you go to see a doctor to make sure you don't have anything serious? Every day I see people that are:…

  • "Aunt Jemima - Buttermilk Complete Pancake Mix, 1/3 cup - three 4" pancakes = 150 cal" "pita pit - turkey pita /no pita spinach black beans pickles tomatoes onions romaine jalepeno ranch on the side, 3 cups = 250 cal" Maybe I'm wrong, but some of the food is a little underestimated, and it adds up... Also, you measure some…

  • Oh those online relationships... think about it, one year from now you won't feel this pain... the reality is you don't even know him, he might have been in a hurry because his wife and 5 kids are waiting for him somewhere 4 hours away. You're just too trusting. It was not about you or your weight. Don't beat yourself up.…

  • 1. From workouts: I've fractured my elbow a year ago and had a partial bone replacement and ligament repair. Still haven't gotten my range of motion back, but last week I noticed I don't have pain in it anymore!! I got so used living with pain that didn't even realize how working out made my range of motion better, and I…

  • I did the same =) no reason to wait 5+ hrs between the meals! no matter what I eat for breakfast, I'm hungry in 3 hours. In fact, the more I eat, the faster I become hungry. You know your body better than anybody else; if you tried different kinds of breakfast and nothing works, just eat something around 8-9 am. Every job…

  • I've checked the reviews on amazon, many people are noticing the inconsistent results... One of the reviews: "I had my heart rate reading suddenly jump from the 140 range to over 200, and stay that way for some time, then suddenly drop back down. This happened on more than one occasion. The first time it scared me because…

  • It might make you more hungry. But the pill itself has to be less than 1 cal, so calories in, calories out... According to my experience, some pills made me very *****y, but never heavier.

  • 80-90 & running- doesn't sound right. My HRM shows 80-90 when I'm just doing my office job (sitting). When I'm walking about 3.5-4 mph it's about 135-145, when I'm running at 7.5 mph it's in 170-175. What HRM are you using? Does it have a chest strap?

  • Any smartphone... Sometimes I see an exercise I wanna try, so I snap a picture with my phone from the computer screen. Sometimes I create a workout on my PC, and just take a pic with my phone, and keep it open during the workout. But my favorite is my personal trainer ))

  • If she's so skinny, she should be able to squeeze... So many people are in denial about their psychological problems. Don't make their problems your problems. It wasn't about you, it's about her.

  • I've been using MFP for about 45 days, and I don't feel the need to stuff myself anymore. The secret is simple: I don't let myself get really HUNGRY. I log my food into 6 meals, but it's actually about 10 light meals. Before, I'd have coffee in the morning, light snack at work, and after work the nightmare started, I could…

    in One annoying thing about weight loss... Comment by skyeny May 2014
  • I gained 18 lb on 150 Zoloft in 1 year. I think Zoloft simply made me feel relaxed and not guilty about overeating =) I got off Zoloft 2 months ago, and lost 11 lb so far because I got back my consciousness, started eating clean and working out. Now I care, I'm not numb anymore. Btw I noticed that a good workout is a 100%…
