Maybe just do some lighter exercise, brisk walk perhaps? Or if it is really hurting just lay down & have a off day!

I don't have a single full-time job, but I have TONS of part-time jobs. Sales associate at H&M Student Photographer - usually 1-2 gigs a month Concert promoter /band booker for a local coffee house - I schedule "Open Mics" every Friday as well as a huge concert at the end of each month & I donate plasma! (What I use to pay…

I thought I replied to this, I guess not!! MY HW = 202 MY CW= 149.6 :) UGW= 120-130

I wasn't even that big at the time...a couple months ago, so I have lost about 15lbs since then, but I broke a chair at a bar...during a concert. The concert hadent started yet so it was quiet ...and quite embarrassing!

I try to eat pretty "normal" eggs, toast, hot dogs, mac & cheese, bacon, rice, cheese lol, but sometimes I'll throw in a pack of gushers, or a snack bar or something in addition to the grapes & rice on my plate or whatever! Just as long as it fits into my calorie goal!

I typically loose 7-10 lbs a month eating around 1500 calories NET. It's very possible, but 9 lbs sounds very random, how do you know you have to loose that amount of weight?

I just started to get this, only from one person so far, but she was like "how much more weight are you trying to loose" in a tone that made me think...oh crap, I hope this stuff isnt going to start coming from everyone! I just barely got into the healthy bmi range but the healthy weight range for me is between 118-159.6 &…

I totally do this ill have a 7pm dinner usually & a 9 -10pm later snack

I am 5'7!

Thank you so much guys!! I love looking at the motivational topics it has helped me to become motivated! I can't wait to do a post at my ultimate goal weight!

My waist was 34 at the time of my wedding, its now 29 My hips were 40 they are now 36 I'm not sure what my arms/legs were at the very beginning but I have lost several inches off them in the last couple of months :) ~Rachel

Thank you!!

Hi everyone! My name is Rachel I am 24 years old & I have been married since November! I started working out on a regular basis since January & started regularly using MFP & counting calories since March! I have lost a total of 39.4 lbs with 27 of the 39 being lost since March! I live in Indiana. I work as a retail…

Most people get tired of it after a day, its a FAD diet. Plus apparently it will give you really bad gas & smells terrible.

Same for me! My ring likes to twist around my finger all day long!

Great job! I love your hair!

COLLEGE. eating a lot more, and no longer being in sports = extreme weight gain.

WRONG. Muscle does NOT weigh more 1 lb of muscle = 1 lb of fat , it is still 1 lb however muscle is leaner so you will look smaller.

Hey I'm Rachel I'm 177 & wear a size 8/10 dress currently & a size 10/12 pant & medium shirts

1. Increase activity days I don't go to the gym by a: riding my bike b: roller skating c: tennis or some other sport 2. Get in the 160's! 3. Try to be at or under my calorie goals at least 6/7 days of the week!

Modern day miracle!

Ultimate goal- Anywhere from 125-140 :) I am currently at 175 & I started at 202

I looked sooo big in my wedding photos!

Instead of calling it Cheat Day how about Treat Day :) I think its good to treat yourself every once in a while like on Holidays or a fancy restaurant or something

I agree about logging it, even though I knew I was going to go over today, I would rather log everything I can then not log the "bad" days.

I'm guessing this is a weeks caloric intake?

Breakfast idea: Sandwhich slim with cream cheese & sliced strawberries! Sandwhich slim - 100 cals Cream cheese- 100 cals Strawberries - 25 cals! 225 total One of my favorite breakfast ideas!

I try to do it once a week, sometimes ill do it mid week just to see where im at

At least your husband isn't trying to GAIN WEIGHT! My husband is & making my 200 calorie breakfast vs. his 600+ calorie breakfast is hilarious!!

When I first started MFP said I needed to be at 1400ish to lose 1.5 lb at week , however, I thought that was too low for me, so I customized it to 1700 and I have been losing 1.5-2 lbs average a week (eating back most of my exercise calories too) You know your body better than MFP I would go with what you feel comfortable,…
