Make-Ahead Meals
Well, it's been a pretty good summer. But my last semester starts up in 3 weeks and it's a doozy. I'm taking 6 classes and working 15 hours/week. I know already I'm not going to have time to cool during the week except maybe Wednesday night, but even that will be pushing it. Luckily I have Sunday and every other Saturday…

All My Friends Quit
Ok, not ALL of them, but I've been going strong for a year and a half (my current login streak is 368 days) and so a lot of the friends I added at the beginning aren't active here anymore. I'm looking for some new friends to keep up the motivation and inspiration. Add me! Fem/She/Her, 22, 5'8", SW: 275, CW: ~233, 1GW: 225,…

Weighing In (on weighing in?)
First off, I'm sorry I made you read that horrible pun with your own two eyes. Second: I know that the general consensus on weigh-in frequency is once a week, but sometimes I feel like I'm wired a little differently because one of my biggest motivators to keep myself going on here is stepping on the scale literally every…

School Year Motivation
Alrighty peeps, I've been at it for about a month now and it's starting to get a little easier, but I am worried about 2 things: 1. I've never stuck with it much longer than this before. I don't have any desire to quit, and my motivation is pretty good, but that might not be how I feel next week or next month. 2. School is…

Calorie Dispersion
Just wondering what everyone's calorie dispersion throughout the day looks like. Do you have a fairly even rate all day? Eat 80% of your daily allowance by noon? Only eat once big meal a day? I'm not asking for advice- my system seems to be working for me. Just wondering where y'all stand. :)

Exercise that doesn't suck?
Now that I've gotten better with my eating habits, I'm ready to get into an exercise routine. Today I went swimming for a couple hours, and, I mean that's like the ideal form of exercise, right? Tricking your body into enjoying yourself while burning calories. But realistically, I can't go swimming on a regular basis, and…

Logging work as exercise
I am a full-time student, so when I made my profile I set it to sedentary since I spend a lot of my time at a desk. But I also work part time in food prep/service and in retail a few days a week. Should I change my settings to lightly active? Or is work just something I should log as exercise? I'm not sure because that…

I have an actual goal this time.
Ok so i am currently headed into my senior year (of university) at 256 lb. I'm working on "getting my life together," and my weight is next on the list. In 292 days when I get my diploma, I plan to be under 200 lbs. I'm looking for friends to keep me motivated and encouraged, as well as swapping recipes.

Missed calories
Hey guys, So this morning got off to a rough start and I didn't get any breakfast before I went to work. Now it's 4pm and I didn't eat anything all day until just now. Normally I'm at about 700cals by this time of the day. So for dinner, would it be best to just stick to slightly larger than my normal meal, or try and get…
