    YOu look great...try utilizing some of the tools. I like setting several goals like getting my BMI down and seeing some of the charts are nice and motivating to keep going. You can do it...

    fantastic!!! p.s. I love the yellow dress!!!
  • I give myself a garbage plate now and then. Not very often. Maybe every two - three weeks I have one meal where I just don't worry about the calorie count AT ALL. I know that even by going 500-600 calories over my usual day's intake it's NOWHERE NEAR the damage I used to do on a daily basis.

    i exercise like a nut! i do it everyday without fail about 45 min on elliptical, and weights every other. i also am staying away from white carbs, and doing low fat, cutting my portions. i live on veg, chicken, greek yogurt, and fruit.

    you look awesome and are doing a great job so far. But don't get bored and give in now. Give yourself a day to enjoy a beer or two, or a "garbage plate" as you call it, but get back to it. If you are getting bored, change it up a lil bit. A different type of workout, or different types of food, but still healthy. Look for some new recipes involving your favorite foods to change things up. If you want a fun workout, that is fun, I would recommend the xbox kinect, most of the games are really fun, and you dont even realize you are working out. Good luck with everything, I hope you continue your success.

    well, i stay away from white bread, pasta, potatoes, I eat only whole grains. i eat alot of chicken, fish, pork, tuna fish, veg, greek yogurt, fruit. i have also cut down on portion sizes. the most important is the exercise, i have missed 9 days in 2 months thats it! its tough, but i want it all off before summer!

    I agree. I know this is a lifestyle change. But my lifestyle will include some 'indulgences'. But being aware of them, how much, how often is the change I want and am doing. I go over sometimes and I go under sometimes. But it's about finding a healthier 'comfort' zone for me.

    I say enjoy a beer. You've earned it.

    And enjoy a 'garbage' plate one night. You might find it doesn't taste as good as you thought it would or you don't eat all of it. That just means leftovers for another night. A little indulgence is better than an overindulgence everyday.

    JMO....:flowerforyou:

    You look WONDERFUL!!!! I can tell you, nothing you can eat will taste as good as you look!!!!! Have one cheat meal a week and then get right back to it!!! Keep up the good work and please keep us posted. What you're doing will also trickle down to your two beautiful kids, so keep up the good fight for them and yourself. You deserve it!!!!

    44 lbs in 2 months? what's your secret?? LOL Great job, though.. seriously!!! if you're bored, why not try something new? (in terms of athletics)..and if it is food that bores you.. why not try a healthy cooking class... expand your palate and get some great new food ideas ;)

    It sounds like you need to expand on your foods, chicken veg, fruits and greek yogurt will get you so bored that you might fail. Switch things up, add some different foods, try new spices and recipes, just keep it tasting great and you'll have success. You didn't get big by not liking food, so you won't get small that way either. Start making healthy versions of those old foods - make it your challenge to figure out how to make those things in a way that they work for you!
