Ditch the Low fat/light stuff...they are usually filled with other stuff to make it taste palatable that stall loss... I add chia seeds to yogurt, cottage cheese with raspberries (my fav), and even my coffee in mornings. Adding fat does add calories but our bodies process better and you feel fuller longer on less.

lost 51 a little over year... right now I am up about 8-9 pounds from then. Been doing this since on Aug. 2012 and trying hard to stop the upward swing currently in last couple years. It is a day to day/hour to hour struggle. Hang in there and just keep at it.

Reading labels and finding what I thought was a serving was in fact sometimes 3+…

The red food dye they stopped making (caused cancer) years and years ago is why the Red Velvet Cakes do not taste good. We used to make from scratch as a child with the old red dye and they were delicious!!!

Yes, one a day ... you build on how long (seconds) you hold it each day with scheduled rest days too in the chart. I have a list I printed 2 years ago, but never did so this time I put on side of fridge to remind me ....hahaha!

didn't make the entire time last night but 2/3 of it...should have just kept going with another but .... tonight I'll just do 2-3 times until I work up to the total for today. I applaud all the ones who can hold it for the entire length without having to do 2 or 3 shorter times. But I'll keep at it...slowly but surely I…

late to the party so to speak...so I did 1-5 days on the 6th to catch up... hehehe! today was a challenge (9th day) not sure if just as it was now 60 seconds or if it also has something to do with the bad fall I took on kitchen tile floor 2 days ago, but I did a total of 60 seconds plus just had to break it up into 3…
