I live near a thrift store that sells each item for $1 each. Which Is great because I just bought a Pair of slacks Mar. 1 and their already too loose. I've been able to take a few things in as well. A few of my things I have passed up to my husband who has also lost weight along with me. I have to wash clothes more often…

ever time I get stuck, I increase my walking, like from 2 miles to 3 -4 a day. And since it worked I am assuming for some reason I was counting calories wrong.

that's how I lost 40 pounds.

there are calculators online that you can use to get an estimate. I tryed to start maintanace. I couldn't do it. I Got stomach aches from eating the extra food. It was easier to go back on my diet. I'll try again later. Still can loose 10-15 pounds safely. Not sure what hapens when I cann't.

I had high cholesteral and it caused me to have a stroke, so I would cooperate with your dr. Loose weight, Go on a low cholesteral diet. get your blood pressure down. Its not worth it to find out if your smarter than your dr. My site was wrecked, my right side has a terrible pins and needle sensation, often it doesn't work…

Go to a store and buy all the $1 things You can buy with your $30. Here you can get 10 pounds of Potatoes, Cheap hot dogs, ! pound pks of noodles, Small bag of lentles, If there is a dollar store near you you could find more $1 items. at the one I go to they have small bottles of veg oil. You could check out the bulk Item…

i can my own veggies, a bit of work but worth the trouble.

I st arted in SEpt. walking to loose weight. As of last month i'd lost 35 pounds. I have a bike now. Which I get about only 18 miles On a week now. I was walkiing 14- 15 miles a week before. Either way isa good way to loose 0r maintain.

I'm 60 , started loosing weight last Sept. started at 182. Weghed 144 this morning. Lost the weight by walking and a 1100 calorie diet. Tryed to go to maintanance 3 weeks ago. Got up to 1500 calories and My stomach rebelled. So I'm back to 1200 . I've Lost From 147 down to 144.5 trying to stop loosing. But I had tryed to…

I do an Internet search for calories In "'..........."" when ever I have new foods in the house. If it's no a pkged food.We eat6 the same foods over and over so it's like once every 2-3 weeks I have to do it.

dr. talked about taking me off meds. but since I had a stroke I"m afraid to aggree to that. Then Yesterday I acidently forgot my morning meds. So it went UP so not sure. would be interested to hear How it worked for others to be taken off pills. I got My colesteral down in 2 Monthes to.. Dr. never told me to loose weight I…

3 meals and 2 snacks. From 100 to 400 calories each.

win co or wal- mart. when i can get into the larger towns, in our town i"m stuck with Bargain giant. here It I 1/3 more expensive. So we have to go Into the larger city and stock up every oce in awhile. But our garden helps.

I've noticed when we have oranges thngs work better. they are filled with fiber.

i went from 182 down to 146 on 1200 calories. took me 5 monthes. I did walk alot , but now I ride bike most days. and eat 1500 calories to loose 10 more.

I banked 700 calories during the 7 days before my birthday. Add those 700 to my calories that I had on the day. I only went over the next by 4 or 500. I took those off the following week. So I broke even over the long haul. That's with cake and all. i was concerned I would go over on my sodium is why I was so carefull and…

they are a main crop in our garden. we eat all we grow plus several extra bags a year. we could use a bigger garden. They are great as the full meal deal. baked with meat and cheese.

2 grahm crackers with peanut butter, if i have enough calories I have milk with it.

It did for me, took more than 1 day though.

we got ours at Wal-mart. about $20. Does OZ, grams and zeros out. Big enough for a dinner plate.

I'm taking a break. added 500 calories expected to stop loosing weight but I'm loosing more than I was before the added calories. I feel so much better than I did. Not sure when or if I am going back to the calorie count I was at. I'm still working out. Which is a combination of walking and bike riding.

anything breaded and fried is going to be high.

I don"t have aa diary, but Have high blood pressure. That's getting much better. I cut down on salt. And lost alot of weight. Lost the weight walking and by eating alot less.

I'm having the same problem. I got a bike for my birthday (3/2) and even though I wanted to loose 10 more pounds I knew riding the bike would be a bigger calorie burner than the walking I was doing so thought it would be enough to ride the bike and still loose even if I raised my calories , I ride for 3 days about 4 miles…

My problem would be I'd be soaked from sweat. When I do my walks now I get home soaked , and it's only 50F on most days. And as my metabilism gets better it gets worse.

about 10:00, I have something with carbs, protien, and fruit or veggie. 300- 400 calories. depending on exercise for the day. Ususally in a effort to finish off my calories for the day. Which is getting harder as I get into maintanace.

apples, bananas, green beans. any salad greens, cooked greens, avacado. any thing on sale.
