Easy, filling dinners to take to work.
I don't have much time to eat at work and I'm tired of going to subway or something and spending all that money on a tiny sandwich. Anyone have any suggestions on something I can bring? There's a microwave and toasted, so things can be heated up!

How to start losing weight again.
So I lost about 30 pounds last year in a very short amount of time. I was healthy, thin, and looked really good but at the time, I didn't realize that and began to go to dangerous lengths to lose more weight. Of course, it didn't work, and after months of starving and purging I gained back almost all the weight. I'm about…

What would you do in this situation?
Okay, so Saturday was my 21st birthday. I had whole wheat waffles for breakfast, but then I went out for lunch AND dinner. I kept my meals as healthy as I could, but I also got a pina coolada. I had a tiny bit of easter candy that night (okay, more than a tiny bit), and then went to bed pretty early. The next day was…

Clarisonic users.
This is so random but I need to a few opinions. I got a clarisonic a few weeks ago. For those of you who don't know what it is, it's a face cleaning took. It has a scrubber on and it's electronic and you basically just use it and you basically just use it to wash your face. Standard stuff. I've heard amazing stuff about…

Tofe fudge pie.
UGH, meant to say tofu -__- So I've had tofu sitting in my freezer forever and never knew what to do with it. Until I came across this recipe from chocolatecoveredkatie for tofu fudge pie. The picture looked amazing and it seemed easy enough to make and let me tell you, it tastes JUST like real fudge pie with a fraction of…

Biggesst slip up you've had in a while?
I just looked up the cals in a slice of cheesecake I got at the Cheesecake Factory a few weeks back. Over 1000 calories for one slice of red velvet cheesecake...... Thankfully I waited this long to look it up or there's no way I would have enjoyed it as much as I did.

Trying to decide my next course of action.
I began losing weight almost exactly a year ago. I wasn't "fat" but I was a few pounds overweight. At 5'3, I was 156 pounds. I didn't count calories or anything. I just ate better and exercised and by doing that, lost 30 pounds. I was down to 123 when I began to realize I wasn't doing this the healthy way anymore. I didn't…

So ready to give up.
Eating healthy, working out every day, and still gaining weight. I feel like this isn't worth all the hardwork lakjfalsjdf. Okay, whiney moment over, carry on.

I'm so frustrated.
[ALL WEIGHTS REMOVED BY MOD] A year ago when I was losing weight the healthy way, it was SO much easier. I dropped from x to weight y in 7 months. But then I thought I still needed to lose and I developed my eating disorder but STILL didn't lose then I went to therapy and a nutritionist and eventually began to recover and…

Who has taken a spinning class?
My gym is moving to a new location and they're going to have a professional spinning studio. I definitely plan on taking classes, but I just wanted to know what it's like/how you guys like it.

People who eat raw!
I've really been considering giving it a shot, but I have a few questions. Could you give me a brief overview of a few things you'd eat in a day. Does it cost more than eating normally (as in, the type of diet most people on here follow). Any good documentaries I can watch on it? I probably wouldn't do 100% raw, but I'd…

Best time to go to the gym?
I usually go around noon or 1 in the afternoon.. so nice and quiet. Everyone's at school/work and I don't have to worry about machines being taken. Today, I was pretty busy and was planning to go after I got home from shopping. Well I drove by it on the wall home, and HOLY CRAP. 7 pm and it's packed. So I'm def passing on…

SO frustrated!
So between last December and August I dropped 30 pounds FAST (given I was never extremely overweight to begin with. My highest was 156). So I got down to about 126, and was determined to get down to at least 100, which is a bit small for my 5-3 height. I started restricting like crazy and doing other crazy things to lose…

People who have done 30DS.
I see a lot of people talking about the inches they've lost, but I'm wondering how many inches you were (particularly around the waist) BEFORE? I'm just curious as to what kind of results I should be expecting. So was anyone around 30 inches (waist) when they started? And how many did you lose?

How do you do YOUR cheat day.
I just recently decided I need to start allowing myself one cheat day a week, but I feel like there's so many ways to go about it, I'm just curious as to what other people find works best. For example, does your cheat day mean going over on your calories? Or does it mean you just make less healthy choices? So would you…

30DS question.
How did you guys decide when to move up a level? I'm on day 5 right now, on level 1 and the cardio/abs are pretty easy for me. I can get through both without stopping and don't have to do the modified versions of any of them. But I'm still struggling with the strength. I have to take a break or two during them and do…

I'm getting the vibe that I should just stop eating.
I feel like every single food on here gets shot down at some point. Don't eat low fat, that's unhealthy. Eat low fat, you'll lose weight. This has chemicals in it, that has chemicals in it. Only eat this type of sugar, never eat this type of sugar. Eat this much fat per day. Only eat this much fat per day. Carbs are bad,…

Best way to log 30 day shred WITHOUT HRM.
I don't have the money for a heart rate monitor right now, so don't suggest that... haha. But what's the best way to log it? I know this has been asked a LOT but most people use a HRM when they do it, which isn't possible for me. I don't mind if I get a number under what the real number might be, as long as it's not over…

5 am.
I have to be up in literally... 4 hours and I cannot sleep. I went to the mall to find a dress for a baby shower tonight and I just looked hideous in everything and it killed me. And I came home and just moped all night even though my friends wanted to hang out then I tried to sleep but I realized if I put my arms too…

Favorite workout that isn't really a workout.
So my gym is currently moving to a new location and isn't opening until the end of the week. It is freezing out here (like 8 degrees) and I'm not a fan of running. Basically, I ONLY workout if I go to the gym. So I need some things to do to keep me active for the next few days. Any suggestions?

So frustrating.
I don't expect many to read all this so I won't be upset if you don't! Okay, so I began trying to lose weight about a year ago. I was 156 pounds, the highest weight I'd ever been, and I realized how much I hated myself. So I began eating well, exercising regularly, and the pounds fell off. Within a few months, I was down…

Biggest food weakness?
What's what food that when it's near you, you can NOT stop eating? For me, monkey munch is a big one... my sister just made some today and I was like HIDE IT PLEASE. Pretzels and wheat thins are a problem for me, too.

Heard the dumbest thing EVER today.
I was listening to the radio and they had an advertisement for a diet pill, and the company claimed that woman over 40 need to do an hour of cardio a day just to MAINTAIN their weight. I laughed. Hard.

Stupid snacking.
I have a problem of walking by things and snacking on them without really noticing. Example, I'll be in the kitchen getting dinner, or grabbing a snack to bring to work or class, and I open the cabinet and grab a handful of pretzels or something. It's never anything unhealthy, and it's not a binge. Usually a handful or…

Red Robin meal builder.
Anyone else in love with it?! It's seriously the best invention ever. You pick what you want off the menu, then you can remove, add, and substitute ANYTHING you want and get the nutritional information. And they have really healthy stuff like wheat buns, lettuce wrapped, turkey burgers, veggie burgers, etc. Example, I just…
