Fitness	Have you Bought Second Hand?	Apr 22 2008 01:42 (UTC)	2
My husband and I bought a treadmill 2nd hand and we both love it. I would suggest that you know what you're looking for and what it goes for new. Ask as many questions as you need to be comfortable.

Join a club. ASU has clubs of every shape and idea. Go hang out at the MU, SRC, Library. Don't stay in your room. I defiantly second the planning in advance as well. I plan the night before my meals and snacks so that I can get my lunch and snacks ready to take to school (I'm at ASU as well) or to work. On a side note, what community college did you attend? What are you majoring in? I'm a math major on my last semester yeah!
Weight Loss	How far in advance do you plan your menu?	Jan 28 2008 18:18 (UTC)	2
I plan a week of dinner at the beginning of the week but not the exact night. My breakfast, lunch, and snacks are planned the night before so I can pack everything, then dinner is usually picked off the list in the afternoon.
Weight Loss	Uncommon Reasons to Lose Weight	Dec 06 2007 21:52 (UTC)	387
I want to lose weight because I'm tried of feeling like that token ugly girl of the group that they only keep around so that they look better by comparison.
Weight Loss	What is your incentive in regards to your weight loss?	Nov 19 2007 17:58 (UTC)	15
I started here almost 2 years ago and lost some weight and then gain some back. Now I'm back on board with my husband. We both want to loose the extra pounds so that when we start our family (in a couple year) that our kids will never see us like this and so that we can set a good example for our kids :)
Foods	Rolled Fondant	Nov 19 2007 16:04 (UTC)	4
My roommate just made fondant. I don't know where he found the recipe but it actually tasted great. It was just marshmallows, powdered sugar and shortening. It tasted really great and look good too. The only thing I noticed that was different from the fondant (he bought some from Micheal's to compare) is that is was a little more shiny then the real fondant. I can try to get the recipe for him. Let me know :)
Weight Loss	where's the rice-a-roni?!	Jun 22 2007 00:23 (UTC)
It's not. I've added it manually and then tagged it.
Weight Loss	whats your fav "fill me up" meal?	Jun 21 2007 20:34 (UTC)	17
refried beans. make a bean salad with 1/2 a can of fat free refired beans, 6-8 oz of lettuce, and 6-7 tablespoons of reduced fat sour cream (my weakness) add a little salt, mix it all up and yummm. It doesn't look to appealing but it taste great and it's only like 350 calories. Yummy!
Weight Loss	Any 18-25 year olds, over 200lbs?	May 21 2007 18:43 (UTC)	9
I'm a 22 year old female, 6'0" and 217 (down from 250) I started cc in April of 2006 lost 45 lbs in 5 months. Then feel off the wagon in a way. I still read the forums but I stopped counting. That went on for that last 7 months till I realized I was slowly gaining the weight back (though 12 lbs in 7 months isn't that bad could be a lot worse) So now I'm back ready to get serious about this again and drop to a more healthy weight level. My 1st goal is to be under 195 by Aug 15 ( I have to get fitted for my wedding dress then) and then to stay mainly constant till after the wedding. :)

Weight Loss	foods for sleep?	Sep 21 2006 22:51 (UTC)	4
I prefere valerian root, which will also help your body relax, to kava or you can try melatonin which helps sleep, both can be found at your local health food store.
Weight Loss	Hard Candy with NO calories?	Sep 21 2006 22:45 (UTC)	4
Not calorie free but a life saver only has 10 calories I find that if I need a sweet fix I can suck on one of those and I'm good.

POSSIBLE SPOLIER What I've heard on the rumor mill is that keith gets kicked off becuase he has fashion mags in his room where it's stated that they can't. Also that Catherine (Who was out in Eps. 3) comes back to replace him.

I want to be healthy and look good. I want to walk into a trendy store and not have people think that I'm too fat to shop there. I want to look in the mirror and see what my fiance sees
Motivation	Curious about member's occupations	Jul 14 2006 16:53 (UTC)	70
I'm an actuarial intern while I'm finishing my undergraduate degree. I pretty much just sit at a desk all day. But I try to be more active at home.
Weight Loss	What do you do?	Jun 28 2006 20:18 (UTC)	1
Well my cheating is that if I've craving something I eat it, only instead of eating a lot I give my self a little. Ex: Ice Cream, instead of getting a bowl and eating however much I want. I measure out one serving and that's all I eat of it. I get the fix and I'm happy and it doesn't kill my calories for the day.

Weight Loss	In the 1st month, what was the hardest	Apr 17 2006 23:48 (UTC)	3
Well I'm still a few day short of my one month mark, but the hardest thing for me has been to get moving, and excersise. I'm still struggling with this. I work and go to school, it's hard to find the time even though I know I need to.
Weight Loss	Appetite decreased	Apr 12 2006 21:01 (UTC)
For me I think it's the opposite but that's becuase I live in AZ. The winter is our great weather when you want to get out and do stuff, unlike our summer (110 degrees +) that you just want to stay indoors.
