    Yes, check out my diary and my blog --- marysforkandspoon.blogspot.com :)

    *drink lots of water -- minimum 10 cups a day.
    * eat high fiber - tons of veggies/beans/lentils
    *eat high protein
    * eat at least 30g of protein for breakfast - and eat breakfast w/in 1 hour of getting up! EVERYDAY!
    *don't eat starchy carbs after 3-4pm.
    * Stick with it. Even if you don't wnat to work out - just do it anyways. you'll be glad you did later.
    *push yourself, but also listen to your body.
    * take one rest day a week
    *your brain says you can't long before your body fails - so again, push yourself
    * strength train at least 2-3 days a week. do cardio 5-6 days a week.

    Vercell I just joined today.. I have been up in down with my weight, just last year I was at my goal weight of 150, know am up 45 lbs since just last year. My goal this time is to make it a life style change and not a fast fix and just enjoy everydays journey no matter what the scales says long as I exercise and eat a healthy diet. Any advice and pointers will be great thanks.:flowerforyou:
