March was horrible for me. I didn't meet my goals at all. what could go wrong did, from having my hours at work largely increased, which so far they will not be declining till the last week of April, so any plans on being on track this month went poof, but I have successfully made it to the gym at least 1/2 the week and…

I'm up for it, at least to give it a try...does walking on the treadmill count or only those walks around the neighborhood? sometimes its a bit challenging to actually get a solid walk in on those nights that I work, but will try if the weather cooperates.

i cut all soda from my diet, stay away from sweet treats as much as possible, when craving something sweet I reach for a sweet piece of fruit. I still drink some fruit juices, but trying to cut them too and stick to non-sugary drinks and food.

A healthy weight loss amount depending on amount of exercise and not cutting calories (I take in between 1300 to 1500 daily) too severe it should be between 1 lb to 2 lbs a week for a safe realistic goal at least in my opinion. I have set small 5 weeks goals for myself with the minim being at the 1 lb mark and the max mark…

Sadly tonight's a *kitten* night at work, a very long one....hoping I get out before it's too late to make it to the gym, another 2 1/2 hours before the gym opens, but if I get off later then 5 am, just doesn't leave much to get enough sleep before I start work again. Sometimes there just doesn't seem to be enough hours in…

"Welcome, you sweet young thing. Best tips: Measure your food portions and count calories in and calories out. You can earn extra treats by moving more. My biggest problem was portion size. I always chose healthy foods; I simply ate too much. I've learned to take smaller amounts, and use measuring devices to be sure of…
