Young Calorie Counters	Skinny fat girls?	Mar 12 2008 16:32 (UTC)	10
Girls! Since the time I started this thread, I've dropped down to 118!!!!!!!! My clothes are fitting so much better, and my confidence has sky rocketed! I'm in shock, actually. I didn't change my eating habits much, just cut out pop, diet pop, and fried foods. I did go to the gym six days a week, but I didn't expect it to work so quickly. THERE IS HOPE!!!!

Original Post by murlindz: Hey Hun. I couldn't relate to you more about this topic! I not technically "over weight" but I know I need to step things up. I use to have an amazing body! I would give anything to have that flexability and those abs back! But since Christmas i've been going downhill steady! So i decided a few days ago to join this site and start watching what i eat and i hope it motivates me to start working out more. I actually have a gym directly acros from my room in my apartment building, and a pool. No joke, i am RIGHT across. I even pay for it in my rent. I live in a bachelor with my bf of 6 years.i'm only 19 years old, but its so important i make this lifetyle not just a once and a while goal when ever i start gaining weight. I know exactly how you're feeling! I've been utilizing the gym on campus for about six months now, and I've noticed slight changes in my body since then. It's definitely slow going, but well worth it in the end. I can't even function during the day unless I get some sort of exercise. It really clears my mind and keeps me happy. Plus, I've lost two of the eight "freshman" pounds I gained. :) Good luck with your fitness goals! Hopefully we can encourage each other during the journey to a healthier lifestyle!

Original Post by missmichelle: I am in the same position. My BMI is technically well within the healthy range, but I can't stand the way my body looks. Mostly because I'm flat chested and out of shape, so my proportions are totally off. >.< I could use a buddy if you want to try and do this together, though admittedly I'm just starting (I just signed up here today but I have been dieting since the 1st- minus a 1 week slip) so I have a while left to go. If you want to partner up, I could use someone to talk to because I tend to lose determination in the face of cake. My AIM is evilbunnie2006 if you want to chat. I don't know if this thing has any kind of messaging. I'd love to partner up with you. I'll send you an IM the next time you're online

Good: A guy who admires my sense of humor and intelligence, and can match me wit for wit. Bad: Trying to buy my affection. SHALLOW.
Motivation	Does the hunger ever go away?	Dec 13 2007 04:08 (UTC)	12
When I just can't seem to feel full I drink a cup of unsweetened tea and eat a small apple with a bit of low-fat peanut butter on it.
Young Calorie Counters	Goals For Fitness (For our ages)	Dec 13 2007 02:11 (UTC)	8
I want to competitively run a 5k. After that, I want to attempt a triathlon. (hopefully)
Fitness	More defined abs?	Dec 12 2007 20:06 (UTC)	1
true, but I know it's possible. My abs used to be very defined, but I gained some college weight. I think it's more of losing the fat, like you said.

Fitness	7 lb. hand weights	Dec 11 2007 15:57 (UTC)	5
Hmm. I'm in a similar situation, actually. I've been doing weight exercises using an 8 lb weight for about a month solid now, and I am definitely seeing results. Nothing bulky, just leaner arms that can form the shape of a muscle (finally). It's slow going, but it is possible! Hope that helped!
Foods	I Love TEA!	Dec 10 2007 16:42 (UTC)	12
there is nothing that can even compare to unsweetened mint-green tea over ice. It's fantastic AND refreshing!

personally, I think a can of light tuna in water goes a long way during finals week.

It might sound a little weird, but a tablespoon of brandy always helps. It sort of works like a cough syrup, and it makes your body warm up all over.

Hmmm. I've had the awesome blossom and the Uno's pizza. Reading that left me feeling slightly ill.
Foods	So I've come to the conclusion that food and school are out to get us =\|	Nov 28 2007 23:32 (UTC)	1
Oh, I definitely feel you on this one. It seems like when all of my energy is focused on class or studying, I get an intense hunger. Probably more intense then after a good work out. haha odd, isn't it?
