when you eat junk food...
After eating pretty well for a bit has it felt like your stomach just completely rejected it? Lol today was my mom's birthday so we had some cake & ice cream, 10 minutes later my stomach feels like it's saying "I hate you." Hopping on that exercise bike first thing tomorrow morning! Haha

Fruits & sugar???
Okay so I'm the kind of girl that absolutely loves fruit and definitely can stick with eating it, problem is is reaching the negatives under sugar because of the higher amount in fruit. Should I restrict myself to only eating a certain amount of fruit? You can look at my log today, I wanted to eat some fresh fruit salad…

Better to eat before or after working out??
Okay so when I get home from work I've been eating dinner after finishing my exercise, I've heard from a friend before that it's better to eat after exercising because your body keeps burning the calories faster for a few hours. But I'm curious if it even makes a difference if you were to eat before it, wouldn't it just…

That awkward moment when...
Your bf or gf drags you to a friends house full of people that are 8-10 years older than you all talking about things you can't really join in on, so you awkwardly sit there the entire night resorting to playing with your phone until it's over. What's even worse is that my dedicated cheat meal isn't till tomorrow (really…

First off my food diary should be public to view. (trying to learn all I can when it comes to correct dieting) Okay so I burned a total of 600 calories today and with everything I ate today I almost much met my goal for cals if I didn't exercise. I exercised this morning and then after work and now since it's 7:47pm I…

Best time to exercise???
I work M-F in an office, so I'm thinking I should probably get in a workout on a stationary exercise bike or running before going to work in the morning. I read that it jump starts your metabolism and hopefully continues to burn while I'm sitting at my desk until my shift ends, hoping it's as effective as it sounds. I also…

Food diary??
Trying to make my entries, for example when I had grocery store brand almonds lets say about 10 of them but it only lets me select 1 oz (23 almonds)?? I don't like how it'll only let me pick from that instead of putting in the correct amount I know I have, what should I do?

Quick question about 1st day starting
So I finished my first day today, 7:43pm here and finished my first diary entry about an hour ago. Now considering that they recommend you drink at least 8 cups of water a day that really changed the amount I normally take in. (Before this I would drink maybe 2-4 cups) I reached my calorie intake which seems to be just a…

Useful app some people might not know about for running
I use an app called Map my Run and it's pretty useful. It tells you how many miles you ran/jogged, time for how long the workout was and an estimate of how many calories you burned. Hope that helped if you didn't know! :]

Going through too many pairs of jeans >.<
Having thighs that are so big that they rub together creating holes in my jeans has got to be one of the most frustrating things ever... hoping I can lose this weight so buying pants doesn't have to be so expensive for me :[ lol don't want to buy jeans with a thicker fabric at the moment right now either since the weather…

Salads every weekday for lunch???
To lose weight I'd start with a cup of cereal (Fiber one or Special K) with Silk Milk light for breakfast (or sometimes 2 slices whole grain bread with some PB) have some fruit during the afternoon and then have a salad with some grilled chicken everyday for lunch. I lasted for about two weeks keeping on this strict meal…
