  • Add me!! The highest I've been was 352 - I'm at 265 right now. I started working out about 2-3 weeks ago, I haven't seen any weight loss but definitely some inches. I have a size goal rather than a weight goal because of how I hold my weight. I'm in a size 16 at the moment and in some things, an 18 - I'm aiming for a size…
  • 30lb difference from KETO diet (no exercise) I'm on a regular calorie counting diet and workout routine now
  • I had a similar schedule in University - full time student and work and I was out of the house 12-14 hours a day. I had a surgeon ask my fitness routine and I said I didn't have time. He then said, "If I have time, you can make time. Let's both do it." I never forgot that, and I use that to motivate me when I'm feeling…
  • I know what is detrimental to my weight loss is usually motivation. I feel like it won't "work" and then I quit. I lost 30-ish lbs last year which was great, but I got more I wanna lose about 60lbs more and I've stalled since last August. Good luck! we can do it!!
  • Don't compare (: everyone's bodies are different. My roommate and I were on the same diet, she lost 15 and I lost 30. She's 5'3" and I'm 5'11"-6'. Obviously - weight differences and amount of weight loss. Jealousy, I found, is the easiest way to fall off the bandwagon. Understand that their bodies are different and yes…
  • I did low carb for 7-8 ish months, Keto diet specifically. I lost 30 lbs and 4 sizes in that time, but it's a fat burning diet so you'll notice the inches quick. I only lost that 30lbs the first 2 months and nothing after besides some inches. I slowly got off the diet and only rebounded 5 lbs which is great. Keto is very…
  • From the USA but living in Australia now.
  • True. I married my online relationship. (we've known each other for 10 years, dated for 6!) It was tough and lonely but well worth it in the end. TNP would rob a bank if they could get away with it

  • That, for now. I want to lose more and get into my bmi range since my family has a history of diabetes/heart disease. Also, I have a bit of social anxiety that stems from me being overweight. I want to feel comfortable going out and shopping and just feeling normal. The major problem is continually losing motivation I…
  • I used to be over 300lbs. DO NOT START WITH STRAIGHT CARDIO You can seriously injure yourself. You are bouncing 300 lbs on your legs and ankles after what I assume would be a sedentary lifestyle. Start out slow, ALL of my doctors (I had fitness weightloss and nutritionists) stated to start out with walking 30mins a day,…
  • I don't have stairs inside my apartment..
  • I FEEL LIKE I NEED TO CLARIFY THE REASON THERE IS NO JUMPING IS BECAUSE I LIVE IN A CHEAP. OLD APARTMENT. I cannot walk in the house without the walls slightly rattling. My friend who is 130lbs cannot walk in my house without the floors squeaking. I am a full time student who spends over 12 grand a year on tuition bills…
  • Well... that means I'm waking up at 5-6 am, working at 8 until 5:30, coming home and working on homework until 10. unless I literally sleep RIGHT at 10 I won't be getting enough sleep. I do believe in the whole 8 hours being healthier for you thing. Most nights, I don't get that much. But my choice is to sacrifice homework…
  • I work 8-5:30 and I'm usually up till 9-10pm doing homework. I'm an online student... hence the schedule. Not to mention since I'm not a campus student I don't have a parking pass and it would cost me a lot to have to do that. This is actually why I don't like fitness websites though lol because if I'm waking up at 4 to…
  • That won't be possible in my apartment. I literally cannot walk without having the floor squeak.
