Confused about calories
So I am allowed 1230 calories a day. Fine. I am doing ok with this :) I'm not starving or denying myself of much...just portion control and healthy substitutes.

Talk about motivating!
An old boyfriend from college sent me these pics just last month. They shocked the heck out of me! I don't remember being so......darn cute and tiny! LOL Granted I was almost 20...and I'm 34 now.

How can I....
Is there any way I can see other people's daily food journals? I am allowed 1230 calories a day. If it's possible to see, that would be great. :)

I want a success story.
Basically, my title says it all. I am five foot 6, 194 pounds. I gained fifty pounds with my last pregnancy 2 years ago. I lost about 30 after the birth. I just had surgery almost 2 months ago on some female issues (not cancer) but the hormonal imbalance packed on more weight. I'm depressed. I hate getting out of bed. I…

New and with Questions...
Hey! I just started here on Tuesday. Excellent site shown to me by an excellent person <3 Anyhoo, it feels good to have control over what I'm eating and to know EXACTLY what it "costs" calorie wise. I do have a question though. I am an elementary school teacher. I am walking practically all day long. I can count that as 2…
