if your being more active you should increase your food intake. It is definately a "JOURNEY" & NOT an easy one at that. Just keep hanging in there. You can do anything you want to do. Just make it happen. Don't look at is a "diet" cause it's not. Your gonna have to do this for the rest of your life or else everything you…

I Love smoothies....I make mine with Spinach, Celery, any kind of frozen or fresh fruit, Fage (greece) 0% all natural yogurt, either coconut water, 1% milk or reg, van or choc Soy milk....YUMMO!! you can't even taste the spinach or celery. I want to add protein powder too just have to buy some soon.

That is GREAT!!! I'm sure it made you feel so good to help her. Did you tell her about this site? I keep telling people about it like I'm getting paid to advertise I love it so much...LOL

WOW!!! UNBELIEVABLE...I have to keep that in mind. Certainly understand being terrified I definately would be too. But I MUST remember that. Thanks for sharing. : )

I DO....even if my numbers are in BIG BOLD RED!!! it just helps me keep track of MY days, how often it occurs & I try not to do it too often. But when it happens it's still part of my journey. I know every day can't be perfect.

I have a MFP pal who is 14 & 225....I'm so proud of him he is on here to make a CHANGE! I hope that lil girl does too. It's not good for her it's dangerous. Poor baby. Somebody has to care enough to say something. Encourage her, I'm sure her parents don't know how to eat properly either. When your raised on "junk" &…

I think you may find some way to cook it at skinnytaste.com...I LOVE that site. You can find MANY things on there. Soooo much GOOD STUFF!!

So how do I come back here everyday to post...I did my first day today 645 calories burned. : )

I'm IN!!!! : )

I heard that!!!! That's right Girl....NO ONE says a peep about all the JUNK we was eating. But now I hear I'm eating rabbit food, petco shakes all kind of foolishness...LOL

Sounds crazy but maybe you need to eat more...if you lifting weights & staying UNDER your calorie goal. Plus your probly building more muscle so it weighs more. I was told to NEVER go UNDER 1200 calories a day. But with you lifting weights it should probly be a lil higher than that. You can do it!!! Just keep working at it…

Go to skinnytast.com I think you will absolutely LOVE it!!!! Also try Shiritaki noodles ZERO calories (the one's WITHOUT Tofu) those are 20 calories. They soak up whatever flavor you cook them with. You can use them as a pasta or in a stir fry. A friend of mine used them with bok choi, shrimp, brown spicy mustard, garlic &…

Ed I needed that....I need to read this EVERY morning & be reminded every morning....Thank you that was SUPER SWEET!!!

I agree take it step by step...start with food intake first then add some movement. But you are BEAUTIFUL & will be a BEAUTIFUL bride as well. Don't stress either. YOU CAN DO IT!!!

I don't think you have to eat all your exercise calories back. As long as you eat atleast 1200 aday your doing good.

Congratulations!! Thanks for shaing. your story keeps me motivated.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! you look great! Now I can't wait to lose 28lbs. I didn't realize it made that big of a difference. I lost 13lbs. so far & no one can even tell...LOL

I'm so sorry you had to go through that....I hope I never have to. But I did learn not to delete someone just because they don't get on for a while. I haven't deleted anyone & will now make sure I never will. :smile:

I lost 13 lbs. so far & NO ONE can tell the difference yet...NOT even me...LOL!! Well I could tell my clothes are fitting alot looser.

it may sound CRAZY to you but you NEED to EAT more to fuel your body properly to LOSE weight. You should NEVER go under 1200 calories.

I started getting back in the exercising mode again & I haven't taken a day of rest unless I feel like it or I can't fit it in that day. I have gone 2 weeks all the way through without a rest day.

YES!!! I have co-workers on Phendimetrazine & they are dropping weight like crazy but once they stop they GAIN it back then go back & get more. On & Off just keep repeating the cycle.They pay atleast $150. for them a month. I did THINK about it cause I kept seeing the GOOD results & wanted that success too. But I mentioned…

I'm 4' 11" I used to wear HI heels every day. Since I gained so much weight I can barely wear a wedge. Im afraid I will turn my heels into flip flops....LOL!! everytime I wore them my knees hurt my feet felt like they were like over cooked hot dogs...LOL!!

First I don't think you should look at it as a "DIET" just go with ONE day at a time. Every day won't be PERFECT just get back on track when you feel you have had a not so good food intake day. Don't ever listen to anyone else. YOU are the only one who lives with YOU ALL of the time.

I was told to NEVER go UNDER 1200 calories. If you earn more exercising you have the OPTION of eating them or not. I just keep them around if I go over my 1200 calories. I don't ever use them all.

WELCOME! Stay FOCUSED & DETERMINED & you can do it!!!

be careful with gronola bars & breakfast bars...My Dr. adviced me not to even eat them better off going with a bowl of cereal or homemade smoothie because they have so many sugars & preservatives in them.

First Step..LOG IN DAILY!!! then you will get into it. It took me a while. I logged in made profile didn't even put a pic or any info then I kept logging in then I put up my profile page then started loggin in calories. Was so motivated by everyone it made me really get into it & now I'm on a roll...LOL!! losing slow but…

Congratulations on the 5K. I'm not sure how long it takes. I hate when my knee starts to give me problems & I know its cause I have a lot of weight on my joints...LOL!!! Well hope your back & running soon. take it easy.
