Say something you "can't say"
What I've learned on this leg of my journey is that there really is no such word as "can't" when it comes to your goals. Weeks ago "I could never work out before an overnight shift" 2 out of 2 last week I put in over an hour without rest before work. YESTERDAY "I can't run more than a mile outside yet" In the last twelve…

Does the scale stress you out?
Let me try to put it into perspective how much that little electronic knows about your progress: Yesterday I got on it, got off, burped, back on, gained one pound. Let it go, let it go...

Progress Photos Gone Wrong
I've been taking progress photos about every 2 weeks to keep reminding myself I'm not done yet. Its about 2 months in now and the photos I took today actually look worse than two weeks ago. I'm at the same weight but I just look heavier, flubbier. Don't think its water weight since its all over. I wear the same exact thing…

6 Week Progress
It's been 6 weeks since my new trainer introduced me to the world of strength training. I have much slower progress however I know it's sustainable. No longer feeling guilty for things I "shouldn't" eat. No. More. Scale. My belly has lost 2 solid inches. The scale fluctuates saying I've lost 7-10lbs. Her opinion no longer…

Did anyone else
forget about the time change and work out until 3:30am? :grumble: A good thing that came of it--- I leveled up on my box jumps! I was so stoked I did like 10 in a row in excitement This is shocking that I pushed myself further without my trainer there. Have a nice Sunday everyone

NSV - PT
After two weeks with my first ever trainer and eating clean I've lost 3/4 inch from my belly :D This may not seem like a lot but I've never done this "alone". Meaning never without an eating disorder or "supplements" ie caffeine pills. All completely me, controlling my own appetite and making the better choices. In some…

There actually is a no-effort fitness trick
There has to be. While I'm at the gym for 2.5 hours sweating my *kitten* off the entire time there are dudes with huge muscles just standing around chatting, picking up a weight once in a while. Every day that I'm there. Obviously they've got it.

NSV! Goal Reached

Unbelievable how cruel people are
Hi Guys, happy to be back on the forums (No internet at home but I've been lucky for downtime at work :devil: ) I work in a hotel, and I'm the overnight girl on the weekends. Last night we had to call the police on a room with 15 people in it having a party. When I say people I want to say "kids" but they were my age…

P90x Question
Someone just passed down their P90x to me(DVDs and booklets) Do I need a resistance band or anything else? More importantly I'm moving to a 3rd floor apartment this week, is it activity that will bother my new neighbors before they even give me a chance? haha

This sounds really dumb as I type it out
But... Is milk chocolate considered dairy? What I mean is, does it have enough milk in it to affect my sinuses? ( I get stuffy and all that grossness when I have milk/dairy products)

Never thought I'd do this
In my apartment search I've settled on a place in the city.. ON THE THIRD FLOOR I'm gonna make a butt gosh darnit. Anything you do now that your weight has swayed you otherwise before?

Soda NSV!
I've been drinking only water(and few cups of tea) for about a week now. I was feeling a little like not caring tonight, recent stress going on Went to the fridge planning to get anything but water and looked at the soda, remembered how it tasted, and immediately grabbed the water. That's the best when you're past that…

Raisinets..
Not exactly a recipe but But when I have that terrible chocolate craving I've been sprinkling a few raisins and few dark chocolate chips in a cup and warming for 10 seconds. And then I die slowly and happily.

So my scale broke (YAY?)
I've decided to experiment with myself a bit Part of the ways I stayed focused in my journey(s) before was weighing all the time Today, since I have no scale at the moment, I measured my waist inches. AND BOY DID IT SCARE ME Besides the point How often should I take measurements if I'm doing it this way? Obviously won't…

Guys..
Hi guys (I talk to you like this because people on here have been better to me than half the people in real life, and know what eachother go through) I just don't know what to do. I started one time, last February, and powered through for MONTHS. Did amazing things for my body and health. Then in the summer I was working 3…

Being comfortable while fat.
I remember at my highest weight (240lbs) Never did I wear jeans, no way. Everyday: LEGGINGS as pants! Just for the elastic and feeling "tightened up" -_- Also remember using twine at work as a belt for work pants..... Anything you're not so proud of, to be more comfortable with all the weight on you?

"Just break up already"
General Question: Do you feel like there's a minimum amount of time you need to truly move on? Or is life too short to dwell on something that didn't work out?

I finally got it, the "wow"-factor.
After 22 years of trying to be what someone else wants, I finally got one of the things I've always daydreamt about. Friday night I went on an amazing first date, after a few weeks of non-stop talking. Just a few minutes ago on the phone he admitted "I don't know how to tell you this without sounding too much but.. when I…

All Dessert Diet
When I was a young girl I once asked my dad if I could lose weight by ONLY eating dessert foods, if I would just never eat the "normal food".. He then asked me if I was slow.
