    Can I join this?

    I'm 5'8", and 161 pounds, and want to be 148 in six weeks - I've set my goal for 2lbs a week, but will be happy to lose 1 pound per week! My ultimate goal is 138, but I would like to hit 148 as a first goal.

    Although my BMI says I'm not overweight (BMI = 24.5) I'm pretty close, and need to get fit again! 148 lbs will give me a BMI of 22, which is a healthy start.

    I have to change my relationship with food, and while I know I can do this, I've failed so many times in the past.

    Good luck to everyone.

    Goal Weight 148

    I would maybe suggest bummping up your calories a little bit. I did it and it seemed to work. I went from 1200 to 1400 and lost 3 lbs in a week.

    I'm just starting out - any ideas? Biggest Loser? I was thinking of pulling out the old Winsor Pilates VHS tapes! I'm going to try and run on the treadmill every morning before the kids get up, and then try and do a video (or DVD now I guess!) each evening.

    I also have two little ones at home (2 & 4). I am a SAHM, and find myself eating all day long! Gotta break that habit.

    I am also a SAHM due to a disabilty and I so understand what you are going through. I would suggest eating like whole grains for breakfast. I eat a bowl of Cherios (sp) normally 2 servings and milk in the morning and then make sure to have a snack a couple hours later like about the time your kids are starting to get hungry but not enough for lunch. I find myself eating PB&J for lunch or Tuna sandwich. Then I eat another snack when the kids get home or right before they get home and then supper and then sometimes (depends on the night) something a couple of hours after super depending on my calorie intake.

    I watch the Biggest loser every week and a tip they gave this week was to always have snacks (100 calories) ready for you at all times otherwise you are just going to grab whatever is available.

    Water drink lots of water. I use to be a BIG sweet tea person and drank a lot of it and also a BIG pop person and I now went to ALL water. I drink more than 64oz a day now. I crave it all the time. It will keep you full.
