Reaching the plateau..
I have been consistently slimming for the past few months slowly but surely, and I have to say I haven't worked this hard in a while, and now I feel like I have to work HARDER because things are getting easier... Is anyone else at this point? How did you overcome it?

Not a spider vein!
I saw one today which hasn't ever been there. What could be the reason? I always hear that it's from standing too much.. I do a lot walking, and workout 6days a week.. Any thoughts as to how to reduce it?

Eating more is a GOOD thing!
I have gotten used to having smaller meals therefore having more meals. Those around me just think I eat a lot, now I would say yes, BUT it just looks like I do. What YOU would eat in one sitting I would break up into two meals.. Is it that most people don't understand that eating more is ok? Why should I be confined to 3…

It only burns one time?
I'm starting to take cario classes at my gym and boy oh boy was the first class a tough one.. I was sore for two days after that. I was expecting for me to feel sore the same way, but to my surprise I'm fine; as a matter of fact I did BETTER than I thought I would. Should I expect to NOT feel the burn like the way I did…

I haven't lost a thing! But I'm fine otherwise..
I've been on MFP for 3 months or so and I can honestly say I haven't had any weight loss in numbers but rather in inches. At first I was bothered by this until I started seeing forums that said "ignore the scale" and more along those lines. I'm ok with it... now. I have been on a low sodium eating plan as to try to lessen…

Any changes to be made on your diet?
I had to see a doctor over trying to get my weight to go down because I wasn't sure what it was I was doing wrong, seems to be working for me now. I was just told to decrease my sodium, Huh that easy huh? Lol nope. I didn't think it would be as hard as "don't eat too much salt." What have you guys done or are doing/plan on…

Feeling the burning change!
I have spent the last several weeks slowly increasing the intensity of my workouts. It feels great. I didn't think that I would be as strong as I am now. I honestly feel the change, if I can't see it I can surely feel it. The more I work at it I'm SURE I will be definitely seeing the results in a few more week(more toned…

Eating isn't my entertainment anymore!
Before I made the decision to eat better and be more active I used to find myself ALWAYS in the kitchen looking for food, like a mouse; sneeking around the refrigerator or the cabinets looking for something to eat. I then started going to the gym, or the park for walks or a run, my mind started to think of doing THOSE…

Should I concern myself with others' eating habits?
I've been thinking for the past few days since I started eating better those around me haven't really done the same. I was at a family bbq this past weekend and all the meat that was cooked was the first to go, the salad that was made went untouched(except by me). I notice that my family's version of "healthy" means…

Sorry, I don't believe you!
I weighed myself yesterday... it said I was down one pound, I'm not sure I believe considering my weight fluctuates so often and stays within the same numbers.. But at least it moved right? Lol. I know I'm eating better and working out so I don't feel bad when it stays idle for weeks, maybe more cardio? I'm already at 3…

Feeling the burn.
The burning in my legs was kind of bad this morning. They feel ok now, will it get better as time goes on? Any thoughts as to how to make them less sore?
-
Smaller plate please!
Does anyone else struggle with NOT filling up that huge plate that you are given before any meal? I'm slowly learning how to keep my portion in check even though that plate size might just throw me off.

I eat protein first.
When eating dinner I tend to eat my protein FIRST, with my other meals I don't that much. Any one else do the same thing?

Excited!
Looking forward to lifting and toning my bum, I started with free weights and am increasing my squating limit slowly but surely. I'm going to take pics of my bum to see the before/after results myself. Good luck ladies! Go kick your butt! And enjoy the results in 30 days! :)

A little bit goes a long way
I'm 30 days in and down .5in on my hips! So I gave myself a *high five* lol Anyone have a small success to share?
-
Gee thanks! But no..
I was recently asked if I was pregnant. I tend to get distended when I drink a lot of water or eat a bit much of food. I have a workout buddy, I'll call her Sandra lol, and she is slender and tall. She decided to ask me said question. My reply? "No, just fat, but thanks for asking!" I have been working out and trying…

My will power has gained strength.
I went to a wedding yesterday and when it came time for the food I was nervous as being hispanic they serve all the things that go straight to your buns and thighs lol. Well, I took my plate and took one serving of the rice available (turned down another serving being offered to be of another spoonful of rice) walked to…

I didn't do it and it's a BIG deal!
My bf last night decided "I want ice cream" and we headed off to the supermarket. We ended up buying other food items, nothing serious just the basics (bread, juice, cheese and milk) just then he sees a blueberry pie... and picks it up... and then an apple pie... and picks it up.. to go alond with the HALF GALLON of ice…

Portions too small...
I was part of the hundreds out there that fell into the "don't eat this EVER" group and "eat THIS much.." So how is it that I get here and MFP tracker tells me that I'm not eating enough calories?? Well of course I am overjoyed, but I am not going to raid the refrigerator or the cabinet. At least I have a place where I can…
