Most of the time i dont log veggies because they are so low in calories, and just about every category im tracking, that it takes more effort to look for it and to log it than it is to actually add it into my calorie consumption and be worried about it. thats just me though. I do log my fruit though.

they really arent good pictures to compare.. seeing as you cant really see you in the first picture and you are sitting down - which is never a flattering view for me! but the bottom picture looks gorgeous! and i dont think there is a job out there that has healthy food- you have to work to make a change. YOU have buy your…

BUMP! good questions and good info! looking forward to hearing more..

YES! definitely. the chicken brushetta sandwhich at red robin - i ate that about once a week and swore it was SO good i would want it as my last meal before death lol and the garlic parm. fries.. there werent enough of either on my plate!! Had it several few months ago for my cheat meal and it just tasted so artificial. i…

i think i like the black best but they both look AWESOME on you. you look super hot girl!!! such a motivation

. thank you for the advice! i measure things out when the servings are cups,tbs,tsp. but am hoping getting a scale will help me lose alot easier again like it did when i first started measuring. thanks for the encouragement :)

oh & any tips on weighing if there is any that you wouldnt think you would need to know before you got it- but you surprisingly do-thanks :)

I know its not what you want to hear probably but portion control IS probably most important! Atleast for me. I always ate healthy things and NEVER lost while working out hard and always wondered why until i paid attention to exactly what a serving was and started measuring it out. just with that i could probably still…

ps- the crazy sodium # is from the packet of seasoning not the noodles!

bump! wonder if you can replace molasses with anything? i have everything else on hand but that..

I know that, captain obvious. I was looking for an educated answer on why someone (even why Jillian Michaels) recommends 30 days straight same level for 10 days straight, etc. Growing up as an athlete my training schedule was light weights (different routine too) tues thurs sat ;"heavy weights" mon wed fri, so you are not…

im curious, why would you suggest "daily with NO DAYS OF REST"?

Are you serious? that sounds so awesome!! where did you get that? i love the tracker and the filter sounds perfect

good idea ! ill have to try that! yum

PROTEIN!!!! if you have a good amount of protein 15min-1hr.. really up to 4 hours but your best time is the window 15min-1hr after your workout it greatly reduces your soreness! and keep moving. work out that soreness. not saying you have to do a great big workout the next day but take a nice longish walk tomorrow and walk…

oh my gosh! you look like a totally different person. amazing!

its hard to tell with a closed diary and if you are not tracking sodium! drink water,water,water! it is probably that. i think that is what was the matter with me a couple of weeks ago when i went back to my hometown. thought i was hitting a plateau but im thinking it was from all of the eating out and salty foods and not…

you all are awesome ;*) i started to tear up!thank you for being so motivating!!!

what do you mean?

oh i love that luna bar flavor! another fave is the carmel nut brownie luna bar - YUM!!! i have a bad sweet tooth too. lately chocolate milk has been satisfying for me suprisingly instead of candy or something else chocolatey. 1% milk and hersheys lite syrup. still a little high in sugar but ehh.

thanks everyone!! you have no idea how much i appreciate all of the kind words- it has made my day 230598x better! its very nice and encouraging to hear it -esp from people who dont know you- it makes it more genuine to me.you all are such a motivation all of the encouraging words makes me wanna go workout now :) this site…

okay fixing the pictures.. hang on! This is the first time I've posted pictures on here so hopefully it turns out alreight... The "before" pictures at this party is actually reason i joined this site! When i saw these pictures i did not recognize myself. I thought "I have NEVER! looked like this before." (which i probably…

need to try this.. thanks for sharing! do you know the nutritional info on it?

shes right! i can not remember being as sore ever in my life after the first 2 days (i was an athlete all my life too! lol) and im on level 2 now this week(works up more of a sweat as level 1 too!) and now i am back to my regular cardio plus that. the first two days i could barely squat to pee it was so bad. i mean it was…

How active is your day to day lifestyle when youre not working out?

shes exactly right plus what a couple others have said! id eat back some of the calories you burn when you log it under circuit training (that or whatever someone else says- dont wanna start a debate on what to log it as haha) because they may over shoot it. and definetly stick to what your regular cardio is after the…

yum!!! sounds delicious!!

VnC premade cocktails.. SOOO yummy! my favorite is pacific breeze. its a nice cocunut pineapply flavor. i think only 150 calories.. 13 bucks for a premade one. its all natural mixes too so shake it up real good before you drink it theres alot of fruit pulp at the bottom. theirs a margarita flavored one which is not good at…
