If you live near a Sam's Club, they have several gluten-free cracker options! I like to eat them with tuna for a quick lunch.

One of my most liberating moments in my ongoing weight loss journey was when I realized that I really didn't have to match the "average" or "normal" breakfast foods... I love eggs, but I'm allergic to dairy, so that severely limits my other breakfast options if I were to try to sick to the normal options. Now I just eat…

I think you hit the nail on the head here when you said this: "I think these are both people who appreciate external validation so I’m sure they mean well but to me discussing my weight loss and Is just a giant reminder of the state I was in and there is emotional baggage that goes along with that I’m not ready to dive…

Congrats on quitting smoking! I'd suggest trying a new habit--when you're craving junk food (or a smoke), try chewing a piece of gum or drinking a glass of water. It's really hard for a few days, but it eventually gets better. Ultimately, it's a decision by decision process that takes time, but it does get easier. You can…

I just signed up for my first half-marathon! I'm really nervous, but I ran 10 miles 4 separate times in August, so I figured that I'm capable, but perhaps just scared that 13 seems like a lot more than 10. I have a month to finish up my training... Let's do this!

My 7-year-old cousin who lives next door asked me why I was ALWAYS outside walking or running. :smiley:

Way to go! I can see an obvious difference!

Your story is so inspiring! Thank you for sharing it with us!

I just beat my mom in a 7-day activity challenge (through Apple watch) even though she's a beast and currently training for a tri. I was so pumped!

I finished my couch to 5k training yesterday and am signed up for a 5k on November 3rd! Three months ago, I could barely run a minute without passing out!

I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't even begin to understand the pain that you're going through right now. Loosing someone you love is so incredibly difficult. Even without knowing you, I know that everyone's grieving process is different; some people need a lot more time, and some days are always harder than others. If I…

Here's the thing... People will always let you down. People will always have opinions that are frustrating and hurtful. You have to decide to listen to everything with a grain of salt and then power through with your own determination. Decide on a goal that isn't based on others' opinions of you... and then keep that goal…

Hope you get to feeling better! One way that I make sure to get my water is I got a 32 oz. water bottle and just make through I drink one full bottle between breakfast and lunch, one full bottle between lunch and dinner, and then generally one more from dinner to bed. That way I get in my goal of 80-100 ounces a day! Hope…

Everyone has good and bad days! I find that keeping certain encouragement things around me helps-- in my room, in front of my TV, I keep two jars. One jar has rocks in it with all the pounds I want to lose. The other has all the rocks in it with pounds I have already lost. Also, it's super important to get a few friends on…
