If you're doing strength training, your muscles need a day off to recover. Otherwise, I've read that you can do your cardio and stuff on a daily basis, however once every two or three months, you need to take a WEEK off, if you're working out every day. Because in the end, your body does need a chance to recover. Also,…

I feel better now xD. Suppose I'll just see how I feel whenever I get there!

5'2 here. I have a question! My waist goal is 25 inches. But I've seen some tall people with that goal (5'5") So... should I be aiming for something smaller? 24 seems okay, but 23 sounds completely out of my league.

Define low cal? Because I eat a snack that consists of 1/2 serving pretzels 1/2 serving unsalted peanuts 1/2 serving almonds And thats just over 200 calories, but I LOVE it. The combination of the carbs in the pretzels and the protein in the peanuts keeps me full. However, I eat every two to three hours, so if you're…

Hi there! I know what it's like to get sucked into an ED and then gain all the weight back while trying to recover. Lucky you, you have muscles though! I have none!! I'm getting to my goal weight and then focusing on muscle building! I think because you're sick, you should go a little bit easier on yourself. An if cough…

Thanks everyone!

Thanks :) This makes me feel a little better, lol.

Agreed :)

Weight: 123.5 Pounds since last week: 3.5 Do you track inches? Only my waist on a regular bases. I do have all of my original measurements from weighing 130, and I will take them again once I reach my waist goal, and then I will talk to a trainer on the exercises I should do to build better muscle in the areas that are…

If losing ten pounds makes someone a diet expert, then you're a diet GOD! 8D

LOVE the face. It totally makes the statement. Haha.

You're awesome xD. I was totally thinking about that thread.

YOU LOOK GREAT! There's such a HUGE difference to your face! In your first pictures, I get the impression that you've got a naturally rounder face and then BAM! 90 pounds less and you've got this gorgeous little pointed chin! You look great! Isn't it nice when you can take a compare picture in the same clothes? :D Good…

Cleaning the bathroom. I would rather vacuum (one of my least favorites) and mop (another least favorite) and do three loads of laundry, dust, clean the kitchen, clean the inside of the fridge, and scrub the grease off of the stove than clean the bathroom. :/

THIS! Amen, girl.

I weigh daily! My body is constantly fluctuating, and that is WHY I weigh. If I only weighed on Mondays, some Mondays I might be bloated, so I might record no loss for the week, when in reality, I weighed two pounds less the day before. But I know my body. For example, I had a cheat day yesterday. So I expected to have…

God, there are some seriously dumb individuals out there. How about we do a little research, perhaps phone our doctors or the local hospital nutritionist and ask them before telling someone that starvation mode is a lie? You've already gotten the facts, anyway. People who undergoe severe starvation only survive because of…

My only experience with LDRs is my current boyfriend and his ex girlfriend. They met online and started dating about the same time we met in person and became friends. In the end, it didn't work out, the two of us have been together almost three years and we're moving in together this summer... and she totally messed me…

Assuming thats you in that picture? You look GOOD. Seriously. I do NOT look like that, and I weigh 123 right now. So, everyone's different. For right now my goal is 115. It might go down to 110; but not much lower, if any lower. Oh yeah, and 5'2.

Agreed. It's tough living with someone who has to check the labels and fret over the food they're eating at the bar. I know. I used to be that person, and my boyfriend almost broke up with me for it. If you can't live and let live, the people around you are just going to go live out their lives somewhere else.

Wow... seriously? So, I'm assuming you live in a dorm, that is paid for, and you drive a car that your parents paid for (or you don't have one.) 200 dollars a month in food for one person is INSANE. Some people have that budget for two people (like me) and others, for more. You're living the high life, so stop trying to…

Do you like bananas? Did you see the post in recipes about the one ingredient banana ice cream? (The one ingredient is bananas!) Suddenly eating sweets doesn't have to be so bad! (Thank GOD because I am SUCH an ice cream addict.)

I love you so much for posting this. Ice cream is my weakness. I will find you one day, and kiss your feet. (Not really.)

It might be. I don't much care at all how the people around me eat. When I'm doing it right (my way right), I feel great. If I'm under eating or over eating, I'm kicking myself in the butt mentally. But the age thing comes in to play I think with tolerance. Like, I'm really really miffed that this chick is trying to tell…

I would just like to add another Amen.

This is perfect. I'm not going to say much about this topic. Except for this. Eating a snickers bar won't kill you. It's not made of poison. Have you ever hear of anyone dying from eating one snickers bar? Or maybe having an In N Out burger once every month or so? Nope. That **** tastes good. Probably a lot better than…

This idea sounds amazing!

a.) Less peanut butter (I make sure it just fills the slit, and that I don't dip it) and raisins on top! Lots of raisins! In a line so you cant see the peanut butter. b.) Salt c.) Ranch (not very healthy though..) d.) Cook it and add it to stews (sort of defeats the point though)

Congratulations! You still have 72 pounds to lose, right? If you make sure you eat right and you get in some good activity, the weight that you gain could be solid baby! (Success story: Friend of mine, 5'3", age 33, and weight of 160, gained only 16 pounds during her pregnancy, and lost it all in the first week.) I kow you…

I've been yoyo dieting for two years now. I lose weight pretty easily. I know what to do. I work out, I eat right, and then when I lose the weight, and I feel GREAT about myself, something just clicks off. Like "oh gee. I don't have to try anymore." And I just go right back to my old habits. So, I know why I have trouble…
