Unfortunatly, I can't always control where I sit in the car lol. If theres more than 2 people, chances are, I'm in the back! I will try some of these above things though :) I'm probably staying clear of the plain ginger or things that taste too much like ginger, as oddly, I hate the taste of it on its own.. Thanks everyone!

Awesome! Thank you everyone :D

Sorry, I don't think saying no negativity please move along.. is really defensive :P Good to know some people may take it that way, but I really was just saying that it's not a place to get negative comments :P That's all :D

I've never heard of that haha! I should deffinitly look into that! :) thanks!

Yes! I do this at the store all the time.. I personally dont drive, but my friend always parks at the back, and we walk instead of finding close spaces! An added bonus is less careless drivers around you :P

** Also, I am changing from a very lazy lifestyle, to a more active and healthy one, one day at a time.. so for me, I enjoy knowing I've done what I can and worked hard to make sure im getting in some activity.. I'm FAR from in shape, and for me, it's actually a chore in itself to constantly bend down and get up.. so I do…

Thank you :D I don't remember intending you must log it.. I log my activites such as this, as a way to hold myself accountable for getting off my butt and doing something extra each day! I not once, have used those 'calories' as eat back, or allowed calories.. I just log to make myself accountable as I said :D I personally…

Air jump, or actually rope jump.. I'm imagineing someone bringing a skipping rope into their office and saying, hold on, I gotta jump! hahaha :D Great image! :D That's awsome of you though! :D

by the way people are talking, I guess I can shovel my driveway each day this winter, and not burn a thing, since I did it last year too.. damn.. oh and I cant count any outside time I do as helpfull either.. I mean, of course you burn nothing more gardening for 2 hours, than you would on the computer.. ugh. I guess the…

Welcome all the negative nancy's! I'm glad you found my post, and the need to comment. I'm sorry I don't rely on the internet to tell me if something is good for me or not. And the fact that I do hands and knees scrub down my place each week, is something I know and not anyone else LOL. If someone would like to clean it…

Not everyone is looking for an antidote in the forums.. just advice or a tip! That's all. I agree, people can be really in denial about weight gain, and hey I wear yoga pants all the time, I practically live in them.. but I do know that they went from XL to XXL, and that wasnt from the pants, that was by me. For the…

haha, such a habit for me too! I feel like if im not walking around, im doing something wrong! LOL the convenience of our cell phones and cordless phones!

Haha, oh my. I know I wrote marathon, I totally meant the 5KM / 10 KM Fundraising events. oops, my fault. My brain lost track there. Thanks for the answers :)

... That's great you don't fool yourself.. But being me, who really only recently had to start doing it on my own as I now live alone for the first time, it's not something I am use to doing by any means.. :) So, yes, eventually it will probably not be as effective, but I would be silly to think it's not more than I use to…

That's awesome! Best part is that you're doing it for fun, and it doesn't feel like a forced activity! Some people absolutely love working out, and some don't, no matter their size. so it's great to find activities that are healthy, and also enjoyable!

If it's something you do all the time. I keep tidy, but I honestly don't mop, scrub floors, wipe walls, ect. every day. That's a once a week thing, so I wouldn't think it would in my BMR.

I don't tend to eat back calories, not unless I've done a gym workout or something. I don't trust mfp's calories totally :P :) I more so log to see my exercise habits, It does burn some calories, and I work up a sweat!

Yes! so many innocent posts get flagged.. Sadly, it normally seems to be questions people have.. My guess is people think it's silly.. but that doesn't mean it should be flagged.. not all of us know all the ins and outs of this journey yet! I personally have never heard of IF, but I do know that you need to eat more than…

Amazing! :) Keep it up!

I would take the comments as compliments! To me, if they think you look sick and too skinny when you're a healthy weight.. I wouldn't want to know what they thought before the 122 lb weight loss! You are a lot healthier now than you were 122lbs ago! Great loss! :D

So, I'm not even going to bother reading all the previous comments. I can tell you, I got mad when I saw this pretty fast. When someone says they are big boned, THEY DON'T LITERALLY MEAN THEY HAVE HUGE BONES BIGGER THAN NORMAL... They really don't. They mean that their structure, and frame are set differently. My whole…

Mine is pretty simple. Cat name + birth year + Favourite Number. Snickers + 92 + 13

If I need to log a meal I've made.. I just have my phone with me and weigh and log as I go, or a notebook to right down each time I add something and how much.. Helps to just jump on the computer and log it all after :)

LOVE IT... I've always had a goal of losing the weight.. and then letting all those who bullied me see the new me... Whatever makes you feel great in your own body! :D And, hey if you get to run a race in a sports bra and shorts... YOU GO GIRL!

I hear you on this! I have always been bigger chested than many girls my age, as I hit C in grade 8, where as most my classmates still had no need for bra's! I am currently DDD40 / E40 ... I want to lose enough and get them down to at least a DD, maybe even just D, and the band size down to even a 36! I have not been able…

The only advice I could ever give to this: Just start. Don't worry about the number. Just start. Start and don't stop. Watch your clothes get lose, your body build muscle and become firm. Screw the number! Just make your body happy, and become fit and healthy!

Your body is changing, in so many ways! Your skin will need time to bounce back, as its use to fat being behind it! but it will! Its a process, and you wont be perfect at every milestone! Just keep your head and chin up, tredge on harder, and you will start feeling just as beautiful as I bet you are!

^^ Beautiful!

Thanks for the support! <3 ... sadly she is not one to do this with me, shes there as support, but not for workouts or logging or anything of that sort, she doens't find intrest in it.

These are all inspiring and make weight loss seem so much more then just losing pounds!
