I'm really watching my calories and my sodium (too much sodium will make you retain water and therefore be bloated and heavier). I'm also doing some sort of exercising...walking, aerobics, etc...5-6 days a week. I've been at it a little over a month now. I feel so much healthier cause I'm eating more whole foods and less processed foods, and because I'm more active than I was before. I've lost 3 pounds that I know of so far, but I can already tell that my clothes are fitting differently too.0

You are doing the best plan of all. :bigsmile: Eat healthy, low fat foods and exercise. Keep your calories to around 1200 a day. You will be amazing. :bigsmile:
Good luck!

I'm with them, eat what you want and stay within your calories... I also try to stay within carbs and sodium though. But that's it. Eat healthy, excercise, live life.0

when i was trying to lose weight i followed the 'eat less, exercise more' plan, and now i am maintaining i go for the the 'its not a diet its a healthy lifestyle' plan.
seriously though, you dont need a 'plan' as long as you are eating a balanced diet of fat, protein and carbs, getting your 5 a day, and cut back on things like chocolate, cake etc that has little nutritional value.0 -

i'm mostly vegetarian with the exception of some seafood. i'm also working on the couch to 5k plan which has me "running" 3 times a week and in between that i do jilliam michaels 30 day shred 1 or 2 times. i guess that's my plan. the only thing that i plan on doing forever is running and being vegetarian.0

I am not following a specific diet plan either. But I am trying to eat healthier...more fruits and vegies lots of salds...and drinking more water (my goal is 8 8oz a day). Also the exercise is a big part of it, I try to do some sort of exercise every day. I am a firm believer in a healthy lifestyle instead of roller coaster diets!!0

Counting calories and exercise 4-6 x a week..Lost 22 lbs before joing MFP at a slow and steady pace . Got a few more lbs to go , going to keep counting those cals and working out..works for me.0

I don't follow any plan!
I reduced fat while I'm cooking. I only use extra virgin olive oil in salads once in a while. I try not to eat candies (except when TOM is coming when I cannot resist them) and watch out my total cals not to be over 1400 per day (my goal is 1300). I exercise 3-4 times per week. Two of them I run on the traidmill for 80-90 minutes and the others mostly weight lifting. I have see a big change in my body and have been down 2-3 sizes in my pants, but not on the scale (I've lost few kg, or not as many as it shows in my body and clothes). I lose in a low pace, I think because of my hashimoto.0 -

Keep your calories around what MFP tells you. You may need more than 1200, I know I do. They decrease as you decrease.0 -
Im on 1200 calories a day, EA Active 2 workouts, no alcohol or soda and on rest days I run on the treadmill with a sweat suit...Ive lost 75lbs...but just started using this site to continue the process0

I try to stay under my calorie goal and exercise 4 or 5 times a week. But I don't feel great when I eat whatever I want - even if I'm under calories. I prefer to eat slow burning carbs and lots of protein, fruits and veggies.0

I agree...it means its practical and its not a diet just being careful :laugh: :bigsmile:0 -
I follow the Abs Diet for Women. It was strongly recommended to me by my doctor, and I have found it to be a very sane lifestyle plan. You don't have to count calories on it but you can if you want. It helps me to do that so I joined MFP. I also exercise a great deal.0

I'm on "The Lifetime" diet.
Eat within your TDEE, do some weight lifting, maybe a bit of cardio, treat yourself once in a while and enjoy life. The good thing is, it lasts a life time.0 -
Eat healthy, high protein, low saturated fat foods.0
-
Macros set to 40/30/30, eat as clean as I can, work out 6-7 days a week (training for a half marathon).0

I eat what I want, although I try to make healty choices. I try to stay within my calories and exercise 5-6 days a week time permitting.
You have to do what works for you. If you can't fit it into your life naturally you won't stick with it.0
