Going vegetarian and in need of recipe site...
Hey all. My husband and I have decided to give Vegetarianism a go for 30 days. I have a lot of great recipes from skinnytaste.com and cookinglight.com, but I was wondering if you have any sites that are geared more to a vegetarian lifestyle. We aren't going to make this a permanent change, but we are leaning towards…

My first stranger (non-friend) NSV
Earlier this week, I was on here asking for motivation and support so that I would stop sabbotaging myself. That same day, I went to my usual Thursday-night spin class. I had missed the last few Thursday spin classes because of various events (out of town, sick, husband had class), so I was really excited to go this week.…

I need motivation help...
This always seems to happen. I go for awhile and I do really well, then right when I think that I am going to get to one of my goals, I lose all motivation. Right now I am stressed out. I am a terrible stress eater, but mostly, I am suffering from a case of rationalizing all my bad choices. I'm dealing with a serious case…

This is not another SHOULD I eat my exercise calories post..
But rather a HOW do I eat my exercise calories. I have been coming in hundreds of calories under my goal for the last few days/weeks. I am still losing, but I think that is because I usually go over on Sundays (big European style family dinner). I don't go over enough to account for all those missed calories, just a couple…

Conversation with My Spin Instructor
This morning, as I do every Saturday morning (for the last month and a half), I went to Spin class. I love this class. I go 3 times a week, and then do a session on my own with "My Spin Coach," an album you can purchase for your MP3 device. I've been stuck in the 2nd phase of weight loss for quite some time: "Phase 2.…

It is taking every ounce of will power for me not to give into my extreme PMS cravings right now. All I want to do is eat junk food, and tons of it.

Not Losing...
So I am only on day 15, but have been pretty great about eating the majority of my calories, not going over, not coming in under by more than 200 calories, etc., and I am not losing. I exercise pretty vigorously, 4 days a week of spinning and one or two days a week of moderate strength training. I am wondering if I am not…

I have the exercise part down...
Now I just need some accountability so that I don't stuff all of the contents of the fridge in my face. I am a cupcake addict, and I really love food, but I want to regain my former glory. I spin 3 days/week (but this is only my 3rd week doing this), and I jog 3 days/week, but I am not seeing the scale go down. I know why.…
