I've created a support group here for those interested in NaNoWriMo + Fitness : http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/100549-nanowrimo-2014-support-group

Helloooo! I'm doing NaNoWriMo and keeping up with my fitness goals! I'm trying to think of writing as a substitute for unhealthy things like late night snacking or binge drinking. I also exercise in the AM to get it out of the way. Friend me if you want a NaNoWriMo fitness friend!

Thanks for this!!

On my way up the stairs to a yoga class, a middle aged man walking behind me said, "You have beautiful legs." I was skeeved out the whole class. Who says something like that in a yoga studio!? Yuck!! lol

Pregnant? ;)

What she said. I'm 100% for chocolate with 70% cocoa or more. Guilt free, especially with exercise! And nothing makes you feel stronger, sexier, more confident and more flexible to bounce back from a bad breakup than hitting the gym! Post-breakups have historically been when I'm at my fittest, because I have more free…

Bump! I'm doing it! Nov.4/14: 115/1440 minutes

It sounds manageable! What I want to know is, how do you log these days without mfp being mad at you? I generally aim for 1200/day, but when I go under 1000 calories, mfp tells me I'm not eating enough and am going into starvation mode, and it won't tell me my projected weight in 5 weeks. Boo! Any ideas?

I'm Canadian so my Thanksgiving is already over, but I'm excited to join this challenge anyway! I'm hovering in the 178-179 pound range these days and I would like to be in the low-170s high-160s by November 27. I'm really really determined to break through my plateau and continue with the next phase of my weight loss…

I am a fan of green tea in general. I gotta say, one summer I drank a pitcher of green tea a day (instead of coffee) and I definitely lost weight, combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise. I can't say for sure that the green tea would help on its own, but I definitely found that it suppressed my appetite…

First of all, severely limit how much you dine out and do take out/fast food. This immediately cuts a huge amount of your expenditures, as well as your calories. Try to make almost everything at home ahead of time, with exceptions for special events. Bulk Barn and Costco (Canada) are key places to go. I buy raw nuts in…

I'm doing just over 1200 (1270) and I usually exercise then eat over it, but we're in the same range. I'm losing weight slowly but surely. Feel free to add me :smiley:

"I pooped a toilet full" Winning!

I also think that sometimes, a partner becomes scared or threatened by the prospect of you changing and becoming more slim, fit, healthy, confident and attractive. Trying to tempt you is a way to keep you in his safe zone. First of all, you could tell him not to be threatened, and that reaching your weight loss goals will…

I love the changes! So far I've noticed: 1. My shoulders and arms look firmer and I'm more confident wearing sleeveless tanks and shirts 2. I crave fruits and veggies! 3. I get full faster and I know when to stop (most of the time) 4. My 30DS workouts are getting easier and easier 5. My legs feel stronger when I do squats…

You could sit on one of those ab balls!

I'm 26 almost 27, feel free to add me!!

Feel free to add me!

I notice that when I've lost weight in the past, my boobs are significantly smaller, which is a sad side effect for me - I hate to see them go! I'd love to somehow keep them this time but I just don't think it's possible...

My problem exactly! I don't want to piss off the neighbour downstairs, she is a piece of work.

Hi all, I am planning on starting the 30 day shred next week (Tuesday). Friend me if you want a shred friend! Also - I've never done it before. Those who have - does it work!?

Damn, people on here are really mean on this site when they disagree with each other. Why all the hate MFP? Why all the hate.

Last night a girlfriend's FIANCE said to me, "You look like you've slimmed down." I was so insulted. It came out of nowhere and I was not asking for his approval or his gaze. No thank you! I do not care about your objectifying thoughts on my body changes! My punchline is - when my good girlfriends tell me I look good and…

I hear you sister!!! I've been watching my calories and exercising daily for the past three weeks and I've actually GAINED a few pounds which makes NO SENSE. But I try not to get discouraged and not let the scale dictate my success. It will come eventually! I just have to not give up.

I have read the books, so good! I think they have done SUCH a good job of casting the leads, they look exactly as I imagined them.

Yes! I have already started but this fall/winter is going to be a BIG CHANGE in my life. I'm so excited! It's going so well already, I am more motivated then I've ever been.

Hi! I have about 30 pounds to lose before my goal weight and I'm ready to make this MY summer. My goals for the week are: - eat mostly raw (which to me means that I eat raw except the occasional eggs or yogurt when I feel like I need it); - exercise every day; - no alcohol.

Feel free to add me! I'm looking to lose 20 pounds this summer and I've lost 5 of them so far.
