Asking for a friend
I went from drinking no water to drinking about 120-130 oz a day. I am really not trying to drink that much but I drink a bottle before, during and after workout. Then 2 before lunch, 2 after, then anything I drink at dinner and home. Anyway I am peeing nonstop. So can I count walking to the bathroom as exercise???…

304,500 calories
That's how many EXTRA calories I consumed in the past year. I am so annoyed with myself. I was making such great progress and then I threw it all away and THEN SOME (A LOT SOME). I am looking forward though. Just on day 4 but I feel good. Not hungry at all and very few cravings. I know I can have just about anything as…

Temptation got me
I am at my company's training center - which is known for the food. I am here all week and I've had to avoid things like crème brule French toast, buffalo chicken dip, bacon wrapped scallops (at "snack" time!) bowls of different candies at every turn, pastries, nuts, taco stations, cheesecakes, brownies, strawberry…

60 lbs in 20 weeks
I have 190 total lbs to lose so I am wondering if it is doable to keep up a 3 lb weight loss/week for the next 20 weeks. Has anyone done this and if so, did you do anything special? a 1500 calorie a day deficit is doable for me if I eat back a few hundred exercise calories. I am buying my wedding dress in 20 weeks and I…

Terrified
I am scared. I have tried losing weight many times. Sometimes I have even succeeded! Many times I stop after a few weeks, many times I have gained the weight back. I always start out thinking that NOTHING can derail me. I feel great, I am looking better, I am full steam ahead. But then something happens and I fall off the…

Before Pictures
I was not going to take any official "Before" Pics but then I started looking at the Success Stories and thought it could be a good idea. I'm didn't think I was in denial of my weight but WOW those before pics tell another story. Especially the pic where I am sitting down. I can't believe what 330 lbs REALLY looks like.…

Alcohol
Anyone have trouble cutting down on alcohol. I have gotten into a bad habit of having wine almost every night and many times - way too much to fit into my calorie budget.
