    what are you eating.... having issues with eating the same meals daily

    I eat whatever I want really. Just small portions. If I want some chips, I take a handful and close the bag instead of sitting down with the whole bag. I have changed most of my snacks to fruits or sometimes cream of wheat or granola bars. I do run at least 2 miles a day. I was kind of back to my old ways of eating for a while but got back on track earlier this month and so far I lost 5lbs, just have to stick with it.

    Look a few posts up. I just made portions a lot smaller. I started walking for 30 mins a few times a week. Then it became walking every day.

    I have been doing the same with just starting with 30 mins a few times a week. Now I walk usually 6 days a week, anywhere from 30 mins to 2 hrs.

    Marvelous transformation - Very inspiring!

    You look really good even at 180 :) You must be a little taller to be that thin at that weight.

    I am 5'7". I have a TINY waist with wide hips and thighs. Those have been so hard to slim down.

    Wide hips and thighs aren't always a bad thing. You can always just work on toning them.

    I am 5"7" and I too have a tiny waist with wide hips and thighs. I lost 40 lbs - I weigh 150 - and the two ways I lost around my hips and thighs was biking and jogging. When I look at my legs, I can't believe how amazing they look.
    And congratulations on losing all that weight. You must be very proud of yourself. :smile: I know I am with the weight I lost.

    I have been jogging and have lost some in my hips, slow but steady.
