"I knew you'd lose weight and leave me."
Those words came from someone who said, "I'm no longer sexually attracted to you since you've gained weight." Those words came from someone who never told me I was beautiful. Those words came from someone who never thanked me and took all for granted. Those words came from someone who NEVER cheered me on during my…

Women's One-A-Day Active Metabolism
Has anyone tried this and had any (good or bad) side effects? I've ready reviews on it causing nausea, but in my experience, you must eat right before taking the pill.

Past, Victory, Back, Repeat
I am 23 years old and 5 feet 5 inches. On March 1st, 2012, I decided that I FINALLY needed to lose my weight of 157 pounds. I had a goal set of 135- a weight I had previously been and was happy with. I started off doing the 30DS every day and by March 20th, I had lost 14 pounds. My journey continued and by August, I was at…

Fitbit Syncing
I have the Fitbit zip and it seems to only sync one time and that's when I go to the Fitbit site itself to sync. If i do it early in the day, nothing else gets recorded. Everything is accurate, but nothing gets updated after the first initial sync. I.e.: I sync on Fitbit at 1pm and have burned (say) 300 calories. If I go…

Which Anti-Anxiety/Depressant Does NOT Cause Weight Gain?
When I was 19 (now 22), I was put on Celexa and, in a short amount of time, gained 30 pounds (which I've now lost 25 of!!). I went off of it about a year and a half ago, but now I'm thinking I need to go back on some kind of medication, possibly a mood stabilizer. What anti-depressants/anxiety medications do NOT have…

Can't I Just Gain a Little Weight Back
In my boobs? Oh man, do I miss them or what!? When I was at my highest weight, I was a nice C. Now I'm not even a full B! Sad song, my friends, very sad song.

I Know it Can Be a Serious Problem, But
When you post a status saying, "Just purgggeedd. Lol..." I am not going to have any sympathy for you! There is NO reason to put LOL in there. When I read things like this, it makes me sick that there are actually people with eating disorders that need help and attention cravers like this are taking it away. Maybe I was a…

How Many Times Have You Completed the 30 Day Shred?
The 30DS was where I started my weight loss journey. It helped me lose my first 14 pounds! After I finished it, I continued exercising by jogging and aerobics classes at my local community center. I recently took a little hiatus from dieting and weight loss, but now I'm back on it! I am on my fourth day of my second round…

Lose Weight For FREE!
I just came across a post that somewhat irritated me and I must counter-act. Friends, you do NOT have to spend a large amount each week, month, year to stay in shape. If you can afford it, by all means, indulge! But for a lot of people, including myself, that $100 put towards a year's membership at the gym HURTS! Honestly,…

I Needed Down Time. Back on it!
I am 22 years old. At 5'5" and 157 pounds and and upcoming trip to the Florida Keys, I needed a change. In the beginning of March of this year, I started the 30 Day Shred and started incoorporating veggies and fruits and denied fast food. By the time my vacation came around at the end of March, I had lost 14lbs!! I reached…

Frizzy Hair- Need Serious Help!
I have some serious frizzy hair. It is unmanageable and looks very dry. I like my waves, but I'd like my hair to look smooth and kept. I brush it and 10 minutes later (with no activity) it looks like I haven't brished it in weeks! What is the best shampoo or serum that HAS HELPED YOU or that you KNOW will work? I have been…

Advice on Changing Who I Am.
I am so, overly negative. I have horrible anger issues. My patience has deminished. I let things get to me. I only see the bad in people. I'm sarcastic. I complain over the most trivial things. I'm out of control! I'm a down-right b!tch. And I need to change. But I don't know how. Maybe if I make a list of one nice thing…

Why Wait? Let's Go NOW!
The time is NOW! Procrastinating is a bad habit when it comes to weight loss. I constantly hear people say, "I'm starting my diet Monday." or "I'm going to start this aerobics class next week." Putting things off only makes it harder in the long run. When you make the decision to lose weight and/or get in shape, jump in…

What (a little bit of) dedication can do! *Pic
I began my weightloss journey at 157 pounds. March 1st, I joined MFP, started eating cleaner, counting calories, and started Jillian Michael's 30 Day shred. In that month, I lost 14 lbs. In the last 2-3 months I have been going to aerobics classes. My original goal was 135- a weight I had been in the past. I may be young…

A Heavy Mentality
I started my weight loss journey weighing in at 157 at 5'5". 4 months later, I have now lost 24 pounds (SCORE!) and weighing in at 133. I have a problem though- I still feel heavy and I don't know how to get over it! I'm just now starting to like what I see in the mirror. How do people feel that weigh 130, 125, 120?? Do…

Looking for Motivational Friends!
I have been on my weight loss journey since March 1st. Starting at my heaviest weight, 157, I have lost close to my goal of 20 pounds! Though I am still young at 22, I've come to terms that my body doesn't look like it used to at this weight when I was 18. Now I have a new set of goals to work towards- lose 5 more pounds…
