I think it's a little disrespectful for him to have said it that way. You may be physically carrying and giving birth to your child but you are both having the baby. If I were in your situation and my fiancé changed his mind afterward, I would be upset too. He shouldn't have told you he was willing to stop drinking if he…

Lol interesting! I have 15 tattoos but I don't think I fit into this category. I enjoy drinking on occasion but I have non-tattooed friends who could definitely out-drink me! Lol.

I'm 25 (26 in September) and I still need to lose about 17lbs!

Do you eat soy products? I have recently tried Yves beef and chicken tenders. You could eat them with a salad or veggies. The beef tenders are 120 calories and 370mg sodium for half of a package. You could also try veggie burgers, veggie chilli or veggie chicken burgers. Zoglo's has meatless chicken nuggets, 4 nuggets for…

"You should be FLOATING off the ground right now". "It's still difficult, isn't it body?" Both from Level 1 of 30DS.

I am currently on day 4 of level 1. It is intense!! I did level one for 8 days previous and stopped because I was having problems with my back. I did notice in those 8 days that my upper back and waist looked a bit smaller and I had muscles in my arms! The muscles are noticeable again after only 4 days. Don't be…

You are supposed to move up a level when you feel comfortable with the one you are at. In one of Jillian Michaels' podcasts she suggested in a week doing: 30 day shred, 30 day shred, cardio, 30 day shred, 30 day shred, cardio, rest. I did 8 days of the shred in a row and seriously hurt my back and had to take almost 2…

Bump!

Counting calories can definitely turn into an obsession. Just know that you have worked hard to get where you are and one or two mishaps won't change that. If I can't log something, I don't like to eat it either, but if I choose to, I just overshoot the calories by estimating what I think it is and adding more. There are…

I'm 5'6", started at 189, currently 163 and my goal is 145ish.

Lol!! I've noticed that if my fiancé pays for something, the cashier will almost always give me the change. Yet, if I pay for something by myself, even if I sign a credit card, they will hand him my bags. It's crazy how that works!

*cough* bump *cough*!

I like to make English muffin mini pizzas! Generally an English muffin is around 130 calories, and I use Primo traditional pizza sauce (45 cals per 1/4 cup!). Decorate with a bit of cheese and/or some veggies and you could have two mini pizzas (one English muffin cut in half) for under 200 cals! I put them in the oven at…

Is it possible that your gain could be due to muscle, or water retention as opposed to fat? For me, increasing my calorie intake by 200 calories a day actually helped me lose weight. I'm not sure the same can be said for everyone - it's kind of trial and error until you find something that works for you. How are your…

Just wear whatever makes you comfortable. I don't think it will seem like you are asking for attention unless you are walking around in your bathing suit all day unnecessarily. There is nothing wrong with going into the pool and/or hot tub in your swimsuit and covering up with a towel or top when you get out, or even while…

Peanuts are one of the ingredients of dynamite! Also, February 1965 is the only month in recorded history not to have a full moon.

I have tattoos that mean something to me and I have tattoos I got because I like tattoos and I wanted to get another one. I would say the majority of my tattoos are just cute things that look nice that I got randomly because that's who I am. I have had people ask me why I get tattoos or piercings as well, and my response…

Think about the reasons why you came here in the first place. For me, there were a few, but the thing that made me really get serious is seeing myself in pictures and not recognizing who I had become. I want my life back and I'm taking control of it! You are the only one who can ultimately get yourself motivated, so just…

I graduated high school 8 years ago and I weighed between 135-145z. My goal right now is 145! :)

I see it and it does look creepy! Not saying it is a ghost, but definitely can make out a human face. Strange what our minds do!!

The only thing that has worked for me in the past is getting it dry cleaned. I had to do this with my winter jacket a few years ago. Hopefully you can find a home remedy that is less expensive though! :)

I started it 8 days ago. You will love it!! :)

Wow, you look great! Thanks for posting! I am currently doing the 30 Day Shred and I'm hoping I'll have good results when I'm finished. Maybe I'll try this one next! Great job!!

Wow! Your results are amazing! Thank you for posting - I'm on day 8 today and I already am feeling better endurance-wise. I can't wait to take my final measurements after day 30! Congratulations on your success with the 30 day shred, and let us know how Ripped in 30 goes! :)

You are gorgeous! Recovery from an eating disorder is not an easy thing and you are very brave for sharing your story. Thank you for showing everyone that recovery is possible; happiness is possible, and you can be in control of your life. I wish you all the best in the future and am glad you are on the right path. You…

Oh WOW!!! What an amazing transformation! Your story really touched me, and without knowing you, I'm very proud of you for turning your life around and making changes so you could begin to live your life to the fullest. Success stories like this are what keep me going. I myself have been on MFP for over 300 days and…

Today will be my 8th day doing the shred. Previous to starting it, I hadn't been to the gym in a couple of years and really only did "exercise" on the wii fit or by taking walks. Day one was TOUGH. Day two hurt like crazy.. but the days following I found I had more endurance. I heard a lot of people say if you can make it…

I got mine done twice and both times it migrated. I have lots of other piercings and no others had any issues. So, because I had to take mine out early (about a month after getting it pierced - both times!) and because of what happened, I do have a pretty ugly scar above my belly button. That being said, if your piercing…

Great job!! You look amazing! :)

Wow!! You look amazing! Thanks for posting these, and keep up the awesome work! You are an inspiration! :)
