took bikini pics
...for the first time. I don't want to share them on here, but this exercise has taught me, that I have a warped self-image. I took them yesterday, and until I looked at them again this morning, I am not fat. I spent last night body-hating myself. And I look at them now, and yes I have excess fat, but not nearly the amount…

this feels like a lot of food...
I just switched from weight loss to maintenance. 1670 calories a day if I am sedimentary, and logging activity separately for lifting and walking and sports, which is anywhere from nothing to 500 more calories a day, but this feels like a lot of volume. I'm a little scarred of this, not gonna lie. Anyone else feel freaked…

Switched to maintaining, excited to lift again!!!
I joined this site abut 5 months ago with the intention of losing 20lbs by graduation. I am female, 23 years, starting weight of 142lbs and 5'3. I lost about 10lbs, 1 pant size, (now a 5/or 27 E) and lots of inches! I have not reached my "goal weight" of 122lbs, but I think now that may have been unrealistic for me. I want…

Making my Food Diary Public
I'm making my food diary public for everyone, to mostly keep myself more accountable. I usually have one normal meal a week, but last night I went over board :( Which tends to happen with my cheat meals. I've still been losing but I think it would help if I cut those down. My stomach really hurts this morning, first time…

cheat meal gone bad
I have been doing really well with keeping inside my calorie goal and working out hard cardio an hour a day 5x a week. But last night I allowed myself a cheat meal, which I don't usually do. I figured it was about, oh, idk, maybe 800 to 1000 calories while I was eating it? I was 400 calories under my goal and had done…

holiday booze challenge
Hi! There are a few topics about this but they haven't seen any activity in months, so thought I'd start a new one! When I started losing weight, I realized that I drank a lot of my calories, and I still tend to do that when I am stressed. Food isn't really my "crutch" during the holidays, all the free drink at parties is!…

December 6th, WELCOME!
19 days until X-mas! I have been without alcohol personally for 3 days now, having too much studying to do to even consider partying! BUT, tonight is my s.o. big company X-mas party, where we all get free drinks and an excess amount of EVERYTHING! But that IS NOT going to hurt my 1lb a week weight loss this week! I am…

big late breakfast/early lunch, ok?
Hello! So I generally try to eat breakfast then randomly throughout the day, whenever I am hungry, sometimes 4 times a day and sometimes 8, just depends. But today I and my guy got a late start and went out for lunch without having breakfast. I was super hungry and ordered an enormous greek salad, (lettuce, olives,…

sodium and water weight question
Hi! There are quite a few topics on here concerning water weight gain, but I am having a difficult time finding something that matches my question. So yesterday I ate, accidentally, 2x my allotted sodium intake, (thanks to some vegan pizza I had for dinner.) I have lost 3lbs, but I get on the scale today and see that I…

Any Vegans out there?
Hi all! I have been a vegetarian for most of my life and recently, a few months ago, made the decision to go vegan. It has been much easier than I thought it would be, and I am doing really well finding food/getting enough nutrients, protein included/sticking to my calorie goal. I am not sick of what I am eating, but I…
