Looking for ladies "tummy apron" success stories!
First of all, I don't mean to exclude the boys here. I just know female tummies naturally seem to stretch out more due to us having the whole baby-carrying ability :P So here's where I'm at: I have the dreaded mommy apron. But the kicker: I'M NOT A MOMMY! LOL. I've never even been pregnant. I've been overweight, if not…

Beachbody On Demand users?
I just signed up for the free 30 days and I'm getting pretty excited! (well, as excited as I can get for exercise, lol) Anyone else here use it? I'm thinking I'll start with Slim in 6 (if I can figure out the workout calendar!), since that looks like as good a place as any. I've gotten very out of shape, so it's not gonna…

Help please?
I would like some advice on a couple things, please. 1. I did a search on here and couldn't find a post about this. When I'm near the end of the day I usually have a bit of calories left... sometimes maybe 100-200 or so. I do earn about 160-450 when I exercise, according to my fitbit. Now, when I scroll back, I have a lot…

I'm 5'9" ..what's a good goal weight?
So I'm currently at 189, and my body fat % is 40!! I've heard about 20% is healthy for my age range (I'm 29).. Are there any ladies here that are 5'9" and are at goal? Anyone know what a good goal weight is? I set it at 150 for now but I was working out and doing well before and at 161 I still felt pretty fat. Back then I…

Macros: To change or not to change?
Hello all :) I'm just getting back to a healthy life, and before when I lost weight it was with WW, so I didn't really learn about watching macros; they did it for me. I did a search and couldn't really find a post that was all about whether to change them, and if so, how, in a general manner. I am 29, 5'9", weigh 187, and…

45g of sugar too high?
I was setting up my diary and goals, and noticed that even though my calorie intake goal is only 1200 daily, my sugar allowance is 45g. Isn't that high? I did some googling and found numerous sites that said your daily allowance should be 20g for women, based on a 2000 cal diet. I tried to find answers about this on here…

Jillian Michaels or simple lifting?
Hello all! I lost quite a bit of weight before with Jillian Michaels videos. I LOVED them! I got down to about 11 from my goal weight and felt.. fat still. I guess they call that skinny fat. Basically I felt big and saggy in all the same places, just less. I'm not sure if I was doing the right stuff and gave up too soon…

Hello all!
Hey everyone! I am returning - sort of. I've been overweight my whole life (since I was about 5, seriously.) It was possibly the worst when I was about 12 and weighed 200. I grew a bit and I probably haven't looked as big since. However, in 2009 when I was 23 I weighed after years of not paying attention and I had hit 220.…
