Finally lost my first 50 pounds (with brag pics)!
It's taken me almost 9 months, to the day, because it has been an up and down journey for me, but I finally made it. I've been waiting for this moment to post a success story for, what feels like, forever! I've been doing low-carb with occasional exercise, in case anyone was wondering. I will make this short because I know…

30 Day Shred Results, with pics.
I'm putting this under Success Stories because, for me, it is a huge success. I have never finished something like this before. I either get tired, discouraged, or just plain give up. Not this time, I followed it through and am very happy with my results. Hope I can give someone the motivation to push through just as my…

How accurate do you think this is?
The exercise counter, that is. You know when it says you've burned so many calories doing a certain workout, do you think it's right, or close to it at least?

Gimme whatcha got!
I am in dire need of some motivation. I've lost my will power! I'm doing this alone again, I can't seem to find the time to exercise, and I am getting really down on myself. I need something, anything, to hit me and get me going again. Last time I stumbled across a picture of a woman who had posted her results from the 30…

Is exercise making me sick?
My body is just NOT accepting all this exercise. I can't catch a break. First, I pull a muscle in my back, I'm down for three days. Then, I get the stomach bug, down for two days. I recover and proceed with my workout, and now I have a god awful chest/head cold. The same thing happened a few years ago when I started…

Does that water really count?

Looking for low-carb friends.
I am on a low-carb (not no-carb) diet and sometimes have problems with finding things to eat (I am also kind of picky). Would like more people on my friends list (who actually log on everyday) who are low-carb as well and might have a better imagination than me. I need the support and the ideas for food!

Low carb...?
I'm on a low carb - high protein diet, staying around 50 carbs a day. So far it's been working for me, losing 27 pounds, but I'm really in need of some low carb meal ideas and snacks. I've gotten bored with what I'm used to eating. Please help, I am open to any suggestions.

When do you weigh?
When do you weigh yourself? Do you have a strict schedule, a certain day, a certain time, or do you just weigh at random? I only weigh once a week, always in the morning after I use the bathroom, before I eat or drink anything, usually on a Thursday. I'm curious as to what everyone else does...?

Needing some friends.
I've been on here a while but never really took it serious. My boyfriend and I have started a new diet and have bought a treadmill and are starting to do this together. It's great to have him because I can't do it alone, but I'd also like to have some friends on here, preferably female, who I can relate with and encourage…
