  • Activia light worked wonders for me. I ate and drank everything that everyone said would work - lots of fiber, water, fruits and veggies and nothing worked. So then I tried Activia - after about 5 days - I started going everyday. Here it is 3 months later - I still go everyday - at the same time too. You can't get any…
  • I'm all in. I would LOVE if this could happen!!
  • I've been eating Kashi - Honey Almond Flax for the last 2 weeks. I mix it in some activia every morning and I LOVE it. I didn't think I would like it that much but was pleasantly surprised. I say give it a try. It's worth it. :)
  • Wow. I needed this. I upped my workouts big time this week. I started doing circuit training everyday and upped the weights on the machine. I also changed up my cardio routine. I started eating a lot better as well. Instead of seeing a drop on the scale - I saw a 2 lb gain! I know the scale doesn't reflect my hard work.…
  • Me, Me, Me! I've been waiting for the new season since last summer. haha. I'm so excited its finally here!!
  • Yes - Team Black is gonna take over!! :D
  • Wow. You look really great! Really. :D
  • I do. My mother has a baby persona she used to play when I was growing up. It used to DRIVE ME CRAZY cause it was all day everyday and I thought it was stupid. But now - I find myself saying certain words the way she does. At first close freinds would look at me crazy but now even THEY say it. LOL. SMH. I hate that I talk…
  • I count my gym exercises. I also work 2 nights a week in a kitchen for my second job. I count that as well because I work my *kitten* off and I dont see a difference in the gym and working in a kitchen. Why shouldn't I log it as exercise?? I like those days because I can normally endulge a little more than usual.
  • I've seen this girl post a few times and she's gotten a million responses that her goal is way too low for her height and its obviously falling on deaf ears. She's still sticking to her goal of 110. I dont see the point in offering advice on this issue any further. As far as men liking you for your body shape...you gotta…
  • YES! It's not a good system. :frown:
  • I bought the big bag of Twizzler pull and peels AND Twizzler rainbow fruit twists. Monday night I ate A LOT of them - and even had a brownie on top of it. Totally screwed up my day. I've been on track the rest of the week but those bags of Twizzlers are haunting me. I've seriously comtemplated throwing them in the trash so…
  • I used to have this same problem and I think it might be the shoes you're wearing. I bought a pair of Reebok ZigZags and I dont have this problem any more. I tried multiple pairs of shoes prior to the zig zags and it never changed anything. I'm not saying the zig zags are the answer - you gotta find a pair that work for…
  • Baltimore, Maryland Baby! :D
  • I moved back to Baltimore after living in Richmond for 2 years. I applied to every ad I found. Eventually, my current job called me (Full Charge Bookkeeper). I went in for the interview, then a second interview, took an aptitude test and beat out about 6 other people. I later learned that I the other applicants had much…
  • I'm DEFINITELY a chocolate addict! I've been setting mini goals for myself like - if I go all week without giving in and eating any - then I"ll treat myself to a snicker bar over the weekend. I failed last week. :( My boss came back from a business trip from overseas and brought in belgium chocolate. Great. So I ate a few…
  • I learned today the difference between eating healthy and eating just to fulfill my calorie goal. I may be eating more empty calories or processed foods than I should be and didn't realize it. I'm pretty new to this so bear with me. haha. After learning today that what I eat may not be the best choices - I plan on doing a…
  • No. Caffeine effects my sleep at night no matter how early in the day I consume it so I stay away from it.
  • I work out after work - normally around 5:30. When I start out - I feel like I can go forever but that only lasts about 20 minutes...anything after that is a major struggle. I feel weak and shaky and like I can't go on any longer. Everything in me is like - I just want to stop. I'm not sure if that's my body telling me to…
  • Right now I'm pushing cardio on most days. I split my time between the elliptical and treadmill. 2 days out of the week I strength train.
  • These comments make a lot of sense. I definitely understand more now. I have another scenario then. There is a new post about someone who is making battered fish for dinner tonight and didn't want to make rice as a side because it's another carb but then someone suggested making red potatoes which is another carb...what is…

  • Me too!! I've already doubled my calories today compared to what I normally eat around this time. I've drank 5 cups of water and am trying SO hard to hold out for lunch! It's making me really angry because I dont want to eat all my calories in the first part of the day so I'm sitting her starving. I dont know why today is…
  • I crave chocolate all the time. The craving never seems to go away for me. I learned its best to give in once in a while so I can avoid binging...cause I'm definitely a binge eater. I feel as long as I can eat it and still stay under my calorie goal - then what's the problem with eating it? If I do go over a little bit -…
