You are going to get so many answers to this from people who truly have faith in what they're saying. Long story short (minus debating): Do what works for YOUR body. If you are feeling great like this, then that's wonderful, but eventually you may stop losing at all, in which case I would suggest slowly (and I mean 100…

LOL

I hiked 6.2 miles today, carrying my 30lb toddler half way! I am so sore LOL I had no idea the trail was that long.

There isn't anything illegal about it. Companies care about the money they make, and can make more by selling more, and sell more by being able to produce more at a faster rate. Not to mention customers are kept happy by having food as soon as they pay for it. 3 years working for McDonalds Husband has been working there…

Our week costs about $78 right now. Family of four on a $60/week budget and $18 for the gym.

Honestly, get them out of the house and use fruits as "treats" for the rewards if you absolutely have to. A cousin of mine used to stock up on little toys from the dollar store and use those as rewards too... maybe a good idea? Or a ticket system depending on age? Read "In Defense of Food" by Michael Pollan.. frankly…

I read that one post "In Place of a Road Map" and learned not to be too torn up when I have a "cheating" day.. as long as at least 4 low calories days follow then you will be moving in the downwards direction no matter what, albeit a little bit slower than you might have originally liked.

All guests must put in at least 30 minutes before allowed a chair.

I have been diagnosed with PCOS about 8 years ago, and I have had tons of success losing weight. The first time I lost weight I lost about 100 pounds thanks to lots of walking and Metformin erasing my appetite. Unfortunately I started getting lax with myself and gained it back over the course of the next few years. The…

Go to bed around 10 (or try to at least, my husband gets home late), wake up at 4:45 to go to the gym at 5:30 and work out until 7:30, then head back home to dress the boys and make the family breakfast. I try to aim for at least 7 hours but sometimes I'm nowhere close.

Yay! Thank you everyone!

Thank you so much for responding lol I don't think my topic titles are very interesting.. people rarely respond :laugh:

The Odd Life of Timothy Green

Wow I can't believe I should be eating that much! That is unreal! I will definitely be giving this a try.

I really appreciate all the feedback. I will definitely keep in mind that no matter what I do I need to give it some time to truly test whether it works or not. But I was beginning to wonder if maybe I needed to eat a bit more. Perhaps I should invest in a HRM to keep things accurate. Thank you everyone.

It is about 1700 or so.. and I don't count the weight training as calories lost, so generally between 350-450 calories burned per session depending on how hard I work.

Thank you so much for the input, guys! I'm 5'7" and weigh 270 by the way.

Bumping myself :)

This. <3

I was diagnosed with PCOS and found out that my ugly double belly was "apple shape" as a result of it.

Well.. if you aren't already you should be trying to eat more iron and keep it up. I have had an irregular period all my life. After really long stretches (longest period of time 1 1/2 years) I usually have an insanely long period. For example last year my 2nd period of the year (in October) lasted for two months.…

I read In Defense of Food by Michael Pollan and I'm eating like he suggested. "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants." Like the previous poster I'm not letting this define me in any way. I am eating right and moving my butt and the weight falls off. The end. Oh and my diary is open, feel free to check it out if you like.…

Yay! I love hot baths... what a great NSV!

I have seen your "BOOM"ing in several places this morning and it is cracking me up.

Dude for some reason this seems to be a good excuse for a lot of college students not to go to class too lol!

This. Boom. :)

Hmm... I got nothing. Sad.

I totally did this. Turned out I didn't have as much of the salsa left as I thought I did. :laugh:

Add me I'm cool :glasses:
