You could be eating too little. Your body could have dropped your metabolism. Eat your caloric allowance, all of it. Try to cut out empty calories like white bread and junk food. You say on your profile that you have been dieting all your life. Now is the time to do it right and slow. You'll be able to keep it off if this…

Word. If you eat meat, at least go organic.

There is not a health issue with chicken and fish. They aren't bad meats nutrition wise. If you want to go veggie, it should be for a moral reason. There is a good environmental reason to give up meat, fish especially. I'm a vegetarian and I don't eat eggs for a moral reason. I try to give up dairy as well but the cheese…

Try lemoning up your water. You could have some fun with it. Try soaking berries in a pitcher of water overnight. It give the water this light berry taste. Cucumber water is delicious. I love me some unsweetened tea. I stopped sweetening it to try to appreciate the more subtle flavors of the tea when I was a teenager and…

Woot glad to be done with the challenge. My weight and measurements have been very consistent so I'm going to take a break from MFP and doing another challenge until Thanksgiving comes and I'm sure I will need help tracking calories with all the baking I'll be doing.

On a positive note, my bf went on a shopping spree for me. I keep getting sexy little dresses in the mail. I'm really liking my body the way it is. I'm thinking I'm thin enough and don't need to lose anymore, just tone up a little more. I didn't realize that wearing ill fitting clothes.

Take special note of your sugar and salt intake. Both can make you puffy. You should actually be way under in the sodium then they suggest on here. If you keep out all added sugars and artificial sweeteners of your diet, five pounds will just melt off. Keeping the fruit sugars low will help too. The pill can make a lot of…

This weeks challenge is to do 5 minutes of stretching, to limber you up for the honeymoon. Ha! Just kidding, but it's a good idea. lol. This week we do lunges. 10 each leg. Bring on the leg strength! for the honeymoon... Jeez, where is my head right now?

Poptarts are a waste of calories and I don't know why I keep eating them.

Congrats on the fitting! That is one of the reasons my dress will have straps.

Try eating some nuts with your snacks, nice high calorie and nutrition packed nuts. I also love to put a couple of avocado slices on my sandwiches and salads.

Blood in the urine is not normal after such a short run. Go to a doctor. Blood in the urine is a sign of a lot of bad juju.

Ok ladies, we need a mini challenge this week. I'm doing JM30DS and C25K. I think I could also add on a 10 minute random youtube pilates video for some extra core work. So challenge is 10 minutes of Pilates! You can do any video, or if you know some moves or whatever, just 10 minutes a day.

I had picked out "the" dress but it sold before I had the money. I still don't have the money. My boss talked me out of going for the big poofy princess dress I wanted. I think I'm going for a wiggle dress to show off my new hour glass figure. I'm trying not too attached to any one dress before I have the cash. Oh yeah, I…

Am I going nuts or am I finding vintage wedding dresses in my size? I stopped looking for a while because it was so disappointing that I would never be able to fit into these tiny dresses. Now most are my size! The ones that won't fit perfectly will easily fit with a little help from a corset that I plan to wear anyways to…

Are we ready for weigh in tomorrow? I need to come up with a new mini challenge. Any ideas? I hope tomorrow is better than last week. I hope I was just super bloated that morning from weekend drinking. I doubt I could put on 6 pounds and 2 inches in a week but I did eat like crap.

My bf have talked about just getting married in front of our immediate families and one or two friends since my extended family is huge and we don't even have very many close friends. The only "needs" for the wedding are a cake, a dress and a photographer. I had quite a few wants but the desire for them dropped…

Rice and beans purchased out of the bulk bin and frozen veggies are super cheap. Meat is expensive especially since the cost of corn has risen. Just remember that you are entering into a partnership and it's ok to rely on your partner in times of need. When I run out of cash I let my bf fill the fridge with Nico food since…

Sure, just put yourself on the bottom.

ALL FIXED! I had to revert it to last Thursday. Someone was screwing around with it Thursday morning around 10:30 am PT. Whoever punched in their stuff Saturday morning will have to do so again.

I took a quick look from my phone. I don't have any clue what happened except if someone accidently selected all and deleted or something. I will see if I can revert it to a few days ago. NO ONE TOUCH IT! I'm afraid if we keep messing with it we will lose any chance of fixing it.

Say what?! I will have to check it out when I get home.

Sorry I haven't been around and discussing things or logging. I ran out of my meds and I use caffeine and sugar as a poor replacement until I can get in to see my doctor. There is no point in logging if it's all horrible. Also my new job has horrible food both to the taste buds and the waist line. I don't think I will…

I'm back in!

My fiance and I went for some froyo and the restaurant next door had a help wanted sign so I popped in to see what exactly the position was for. Turns out it was for a cook and I was being interviewed on the spot, in my gym shorts and greasy hair. The guy likes me, mostly because I don't have kids and I live down the…

Just go for Mother's Day weekend. It should make it easier to gather the family.

Someone put zeros in my spots for last Wednesday and Thursday. I check in today to enter in my burns and I'm out! I did get the burns done and I thought I had a week to enter them. :sad: I put the burns back in anyways. Will someone fix it for me?

I saw gains in inches today but I'm not surprised the way I ate last week. Poison- the key to good pictures is being relaxed. Maybe get a good rub down before the session and start with doing te wacky pictures so when you do a serious one, you'll be relaxed and happy.

Even though I gained weight I still lost half an inch off my waist. Yay! Maybe it's muscle

Arg! I'm gaining weight! I need to get back into strength training and clean eating. In honor of that, this weeks challege is 10 pushups and to eat at least 2 servings of veggies every day. Oh yeah, double challenge! Let's do this!
