1 year laer: 34 lbs lost! (Pic heavy)
I'm not sure what to say in these, so here we go: It has now been a year that I've fully committed to losing weight and getting my eating habits under control. I had 'originally' signed up in 2010, but crashed and burned pretty quickly and stopped logging. Then last July, while walking on a break at work, I found that I…

Chocolate milk -- RUINED!!!! :(
Oh my sweet Jesus --- my chocolate milk time has been defiled!!! I *love* chocolate milk...I have a ridiculous obsession with it. I always look forward to it after my workouts and today was no different. I opened a bottle of some that I'd just recently bought at the store (like 3 days ago), took a big swig -- RANCID!!!! I…

Done with 30DS…now what?
Last night I finished Jillian Michaels’ 30 Day Shred (woo~! 9.6 lbs down!!). Now I’m trying to decide which of her videos to do next. I have her Banish Fat Boost Metabolism, No More Trouble Zones, Yoga Meltdown, and her Ripped in 30 (I know, obsessed much?). Is there a specific order these go in, or do I just randomly go…

FYI - Hulu Exercise TV!!
Maybe I'm just not 'hip' to online TV websites, but I was really excited about this! So I never really searched very far through Hulu before, but I was browsing through and I used the "Health and Wellness" feature and bam! Tons of free workout videos!! Even some Jillian Michaels for those of you who love her to pieces.…

Would you classify me as "sendentary" or "lightly active"?
When I initially input my numbers, I put myself down as sedentary, but given that I take about 1 hr walks 5 days a week...should I bump it up to "Lightly Active"? I haven't been losing weight lately, and I'm wondering if maybe my numbers have been set too low. With the way I have it set up right now, MFP gives me 1200…

1 year later...and no progress
Well, it's been (little over) 1 year now, and I am back to right where I started...Plus 1.5 lbs heavier. Last year in June I turned 25. I'd heard about this site, and signed up, ready to change my life for the better and to finally feel good about the way I looked and feel comfortable in my own skin again. I was motivated;…

For the ladies (maybe some men)...
Do you work out in your make up? I've been in a dilemma about whether or not to wash my face before I work out. I figure that I'll be taking a shower anyways, but I'm curious what everyone else does? Is it bad for your skin to work out in your make up? Thanks in advance!

Hello all, I've been a member of this site for a while, but this is my first post (be gentle!!). I had a question I was hoping the community here could help shed some insight on... For daily calorie goals, my amount is set for the lowest amount allowed: 1,200. This is providing I workout the 35mins for 4 days a week I'd…
