  • I like the idea of tracking why you ate and how you feel after. Might help in pinpointing my emotional eating. No foods are demonized in my eyes! I haven't been restricting, albeit my intermittent fasting attempt (which ultimately lead to a month long binge) but I've just picked up some bad habits! Definitely taking small…
  • Hello! Also looking for new friends :)
  • Michigan-born American here. Scottish accents are my fave!
  • I would have never paid the money for a personal trainer until I was given a free session when I joined my gym. I always thought it was for professional athletes or stars. Not for someone like me, just a typical obese individual. BUT after my free session with her, my legs were killing me (in a good way). And it was the…
  • Homemade Buckwheat Pancakes! And... A fried egg and 4 slices of deep fried bacon..

  • OMGsh my knees couldn't handle it!!! Did it a few times, but mann I gotta lose some weight and get in a better shape before I try it again or something! I just have really bad knees!
  • From what I've seen and understand, you can lose a lot of weight by just eating raw food and drinking green smoothies. If you have the willpower for it. I have tried doing raw food/juice detoxes and have never lasted longer than 2 days. Now I'm actually trying a green smoothie tomorrow morning for breakfast. I plan on…
  • I really want to try Pistachio and Late Night Snack! both of which I have yet to see and I always look for both of them! I just tried Cake Batter and liked it a lot. I am in love with anything pistachio!
  • Yum, that cranberry orange smoothie sounds delicious! And I will have to pick up some almond milk, coconut water and/or some greek yogurt. I just put my stuff in the freezer!! I almost bought some grapes today, too!!! I'll have to pick some up tomorrow. Didn't wanna spend too much money. But I got all fruits and veggies,…

  • Meringue cookies are amazing, just had my first one this weekend!! Low cal too!! I'm gonna try these!!
  • True story, Stacey..
  • I'm still new, too! I'm on my 5th or 6th day in a row now tracking. I get all gung-ho about buying "good" foods then end up just ordering out or eating my boyfriend's junk food.. lol. I'm not AS focused completely eleiminating the "bad" foods right now, just on staying under my calories and exercising on a regular basis.…
  • I read this book, Skinny *****, and they bash the heck out of that stuff in there. Ever since I read it, I won't touch the stuff. They back their stuff up with facts, they're not just hatin' on it for no reason. Apparently, it was denied approval by the FDA 9 different times before it passed and some sketchy events lead to…
  • It's a slow, slow process. Be proud that you've been going for 4 months now! That's awesome! I personally haven't lost any weight yet, but I know with patience and perserverance it will come! Just think you're losing for good, it's a lifestyle change. You're obviously getting into the routine, and that's hard to do. Maybe…
  • Elliptical&Treadmill: 3.5 miles! :)
  • I'm sorry to hear you're in pain :( I personally don't have experience with kidney infections and stones, but my best friend developed a kidney infection 2 weeks before delivering twins, and man, did she look miserable. It hurt me to just look at her! :(I hope you feel better soon! You're a trooper, still at work, AND…
  • It's 30 Day Shred, not Ripped in 30, I got my titles messed up. Yeah it's a Jillian Michaels DVD. I need a new DVD, I've had the same ones for awhile now. My friends seem to like the 30 Day Shred more, they said it's more do-able than the No More Trouble Zones.
  • I'm new to this, too! I'll be your friend, hopefully we can motivate each other! :) I, too, wanna be able to wear a swimsuit!
  • Miss Molly, Story of my life! Lol... I read this and I was like wow, this sounds like me! I continually gained weight in college and now I'm the biggest I've ever been. I'm at the point now where I just wanna be healthy, and lose weight the right way. It's all about a balance. I used to be so skinny, yet I was always…
