hello i am in ok too in bristow between tulsa and okc. where are you from in ok? welcome to the site. my sister is mesa4 if you want to add her too - she lives here too. anyway - i'll help encourage you if you will help encourage me :)

number one let me just say the army regulations on weight are crazy. my husband is still active and struggles with the weight regs all the time because he is a husky guy - not fat just not built to weigh what the regulations are lol. in my opinion they don't take into consideration that muscle weighs more than fat unless…

I eat whatever i want. counting calories will make you cut back on fat and unhealthy foods. you can't eat all cupcakes and only use 1200 calories or you will starvee lol there are days when i feel really strong and motivated and would rather have a lot of something good for me and there are days when i would rather eat…

www.calorie-count.com does let you put in your own recipes. it takes a while to get them put in accurately but once they are in they are in and you will be able to access them again anytime you need them. i use it with this site. i just add a food on here when i have my own recipe. calorie-count also gives you serving…

I am pretty sure you can use them anywhere you use any other onions. I always slice them and grill them with mushrooms sprinkled with garlic, salt, and pepper and eat with a hamburger patty or a turkey patty with brown gravy over the top. my dad even throws them in a can of french cut green beans and boils them until they…

that is just sad. you know what i have always been insecure about myself because of my weight but i have always told my husband i am very confident in the fact that i am a good person. at the end of the day i feel like that is what matters the most. your sister may even win the title but if at the end of the day she hurts…

i don't know if this is what you mean, but i feel really motivated at night to start fresh and workout hard the next morning, but when morning gets there the motivation is gone. and normally it is after i am in bed - too late to get up and exercise - it isn't really about having the energy at night to do it - it is more…

calorie-count.com has a calculator for that under tools

i know exactly how you feel. a couple years ago i lost almost 50 pounds while my husband was gone. I was eating 1200 calories and exercising like 3 times a day. When he got home i went right back to my old life style and eventually gained it all back. He is deployed again and i thought about not even dieting again, but…

I have always heard that 1200 is the minimum for women. Men I think was 1600. You might check around but as active as you are I would not go under 1600.

I want in too, but i am not great about navigating this sight and stuff, so you'll have to tell me what to do :) I'm going to invite my sister and drag her along too ;)

I'm going to give it a try to. I have not tried the initial test but i am pretty sure i will be starting with something like the pushups from the knees. i have plenty of time to work up to the regular ones though, so here goes...

Let us know if you start to lose weight when you eat more calories. I am at a loss myself because my weight has kind of been yo-yoing. I eat 1200 calories a day except when i go over but i usually don't go over more than 200 calories whick i would think would still be enough of a deficit to lose. i would think that would…
