Every single day, I log my weight into the happy scale app. I ignore the fluctuations and pay attention the the downward trend.

Have you put your stats into MFP?

I'm 5'5", 45 years old and am currently 141 lbs. With exercise, I eat between 1500-1600 calories a day and am losing about .5 lbs a week. You don't have to eat under 1000 calories to lose weight ime.

My youtube faves: Fitness Blender Millionaire Hoy - this guy right here is tough and fun.

I think/hope it can be done, I'm trying to get there myself! BTW I'm 45.

5'5" SW: 157 CW: 141 GW: I'm thinking 135 but we'll see when I get there.

How many calories is all of this? Has this all been weighed on a food scale? What's your calorie goal? Do you plan on eating exactly like this every single day? I feel like I've seen this exact meal plan before. Have you already done this? Did you lose any weight?

Congrats on your weight loss. Just some random thoughts: I don't know why people associate "healthy" eating with weight loss? I don't even track my sugar, tho I'm sure I eat a lot of it and yet, I still lose weight. I work out only once a day for about 50-70 minutes because that's all I have time for. You don't HAVE to…

Did it take you 5 days to put on that weight?

I love that line "If your liver isn't working you need a hospital" :D

I like this one: http://whatwillilooklike.com

If you like it, drink it. If you think it's going to make you lose weight faster, that I seriously doubt.

I don't think it's really possible to do in a healthy, sustainable way but I'm sure you're going to try anyway. The only tip I'll give you is use a food scale to weigh/measure all food/drinks. Just curious, what exercises are you doing that burns 1000 cals in an hour?

It's not a favorite of mine. I seriously doubt that it helps anyone lose weight faster. Just some more weight loss woo to fool people.

This bugs me so much. :s

People telling me that I have to eat "clean" in order to lose weight. People telling me that I have a high metabolism, that's why I've always been slim.

There's a lot of bs on the internet, including the coconut oil/green tea combo. It sounds gross too.

How is it supposed to help with weight loss?

:D

I had a co-irker who tried it, she didn't lose any weight.

Looking good naked.

You say you're well below your calorie goal, so you do have room to eat something. What's your calorie goal?

1 lb the first month. My starting weight was 156.

Why? A medical reason?

I would log it and then do better tomorrow. It's not the end of the world.

People take it, tho I have yet to hear a real life success story from people using herbalife.

try the recipes & food forums

I don't even track my sugar. As long as you're under your calorie goal you should be ok, unless a dr told you to watch/track your sugar because of a medical issue.

I exercise at home, what keeps me motivated? Honestly, look so much better naked. That's what gets me up at 5 am to go down in my basement and do my thang!

No idea. If you want a program with more instruction try you are your own gym or if you're a part of reddit this sub-reddit is pretty good. https://www.reddit.com/r/bodyweightfitness/wiki/kb/recommended_routine https://www.reddit.com/r/bodyweightfitness/
