I am also at my heaviest I've been in years. (last time I weighed this much was after my last pregnancy.... 11 years ago...) I can't blame it on the baby weight anymore. Feel free to add me and anyone else too. The more support the better!

this is what I needed to hear this week so thanks!

Hi to everyone! I have lost and gained quite a few times in my life, largest gains were with pregnancy and also the hardest to lose. I am here if anyone wants motivation, we all need motivation!

My dad bought me one of the really expensive juicers and I started out enthusiastically every breakfast making some type of juice with carrots, oranges, lemons, whatever and saving the pulp for other homemade things like homemade marinara sauce, protein muffins, etc. I noticed that the juice in the mornings was not enough…

I have a very sedentary desk job so the 1240 or whatever it is, is basically what I plan for and I am HUNGRY... So what I do is drink a lot of lemon water when I get hungry, I heard that sometimes hunger is your brain telling you that you are thirsty. If that doesn't work, well then I am really hungry and grab…

I need some motivation now so please add me and I am willing to motivate you as well!

I am not a fan of extremely strict diets that completely limit entire food groups for the rest of your life, unless of course you have allergies or they are really truly bad for you (like don't eat lead paint). When I read information about Candida yeast (sorry couldn't watch podcast), it hasn't been proven to exist or…

-I love bacon and eggs... I could eat them any time of the day! -Avocado, yummy~ -I love Coffee, but dairy doesn't love me so my mom found Nikki's flavored coconut oils to put in them. -I've been eating a lot of gluten free pasta and homemade Bolognese sauce but not sure how to track properly so don't look at my diary! -My…

I have always had digestive issues too as long as I can remember. I have had a lot of tests done but nothing conclusive. Did the FODMOP diet and I know for sure some things that bother me like dairy, beans, onions, etc. I have epilepsy and have been doing research on gluten and seizures so there is no better time than the…

SENDING Friend request NOW :)

I just stumbled on this thread because I was hoping to find some people that could relate. I have Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy (so tonic clonic, Myoclonic and a few other types mixed in). I take Keppra and Topamax and I have been having the joy of side effects of both. Who knows if it is the change of seasons but some days…

You too!! My daughter always asks me how come I am always talking about losing weight.... I think she was trying to hint that she always hears me talk about exercising but never sees me do it. Kids, what do they know!

I am writing on just so I can remember where to find this later :)

Feel free to friend me. I am trying to train myself and it is tough so you are lucky that your husband can help!

perfect post!

I agree with Charlz... on the Community there are some groups for Teens... do a Search and you can find some people in your age group that can influence you. Beachlover gave some great advice too! The most important thing is to know that you are worth it and you can do it! Little steps always add up so a few more hints to…

I just ran my first 5K and I think I will become addicted so feel free to add me... still trying to lose and I try to keep my diary up to date and open! ONLY EDITED TO add that anyone can add me :)

Low Carb/High protein/high fat is recommended for children with epilepsy (Ketogenic Diet) when medicine doesn't work. Doctors recommed eating this way more than most people realize but even these children remain on it for usually 3 or 4 years longest.

I love it for the flavor of peanut butter mixed in a protein shake, or gluten free oatmeal, on a banana but never tried it plain. I love it, great to add extra protein in your diet.

This is just like a relay race... when one person drops the baton both parties are equally responsible! The republicans and democrats are both idiots and equally dropped it on the ground and now it is time to act like grown ups and instead of pointing fingers find a resolution so everyone I know can get back to work and…

I work full time and have two kids who are in multiple sports and activities. Some days I leave the house at 6 AM and get home at 9 PM. The only thing that seems to work for me was when I bought a fitbit (trying to get extra steps throughout the day), squeezing in a 30-40 minute workout during lunch and eating lunch at my…

Anyone can add me too! I keep my diary open to friends. Good Luck!

I am going to send friend requests to both of you... same boat!

I need more of you people to be my friends... love this post!

Thank you soooo much!! I will try the Melatonin and maybe a trip to the DR too!

I tried adding you but anyone else reading this feel free to add me too... we all need support! Good luck :)

I don't belong to a gym either. Just can't get into it... but I am glad so many other people can enjoy them. Instead I work out with a group of people at my work during lunch. We do CrossFit Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with a different Workout each day. Tuesday and Thursday we run and will do a stomach work out. Look up…

Thanks for the information. I just get so excited when I am starting a new workout that I go a little crazy! I'll try the Vitamin C too, I don't want to stop working out now that I just got off my lazy bum!

I am 35 with 2 kids, 5'4" and I have dreams of being a certain weight... but we will see (it might be too low). If you want a friend and someone to influence you every once in a while I am good at that! Good luck :)

My diary is open.. I love getting food ideas- Anyone else here feel free to add me too!~
