beans

I eat some mine back because I'm doing this with my husband and he needs more exercise than i do .If I didn't the amount of walking we do now would make me loose weight to fast.

carrots are 25 calories per cup shreaded

potatoes

We cook every thing from scratch, I have to stay under 1500mg. Dr. said I could get all I really needed from 2 slices of bread a day. before that I was a real salt hog. But I almost had a heart attact. so now I watch my salt and colesteral. I do have a v-8 once in awhile and it does make my blood pressure go up.

So 5 2' 147 pounds is size 12. Found a nice pair of pants this morning. That makes me down from size 18 to size 12 in 4-5 monthes. Yay.

We sold our table years ao. The area i was in was too small. So we watch tv while we eat

i have to save up calories the days before speggetti night. but it's my favorite food. I also like chicken breast simmered in sauce over a little brown rice.

I am 5'2. weigh 147. I have a 40 inch waste, and a 45 inch hip. I think I need size 12 pants, But not sure. i'm going to the store tues and plan on trying a few pairs on. When I first started loosing weight I was trying to keep myself in the right size pants, but gave up. the last ones I bought were 16/17. Med sweat pants…

Mine is on the second, and I am going to a buffet. Will try to behave but not promising anything.

I'm 5' 2" and under 1200 I quit loosing. I've started eating back about a hundred of my work out calories. this week I lost 2 1/2 pounds.

tomatoes, any greens and lettuce

we switched from skim to 1% ,there is a difference. I am watching my colesteral, so no full fat milk.

toast and peanut butter, for 300 I add a banana

The doctor put me on a low cholesteral diet. 200 mg of colesteral a day limit and 1500 mg of salt or less.

each time I've got stuck I've increased my calories by 100 and my walking by 1/2 mile. So I am walking 2 1/2 miles a day now. Was on one for 3 weeks and finally lost 2 1/2 pounds this week. I don't do other types of exercize so not sure how much to increase them.

I never used to eat breakfast ,but I started daily walks and think it is better if I eat at least 300 calories or so before I leave.

another 8 pounds, takes me to 140. down from 182. after that I'll just have 10 to go.

I guess I'm weird cause I thought having a oreos would be great last night, but found it to be gross . all it did was ruin my evening snack.

wonder if the extra calories are from margarine add during cooking.

Feb 16 walked 1,9 miles

I don't know . Last pair of pants I bought were 16/17. But I weigh 151 now. probably 21 pounds less than then. So I'll Have to figure out a new size to get. I know I tryed on the 16/17 and they seem baggie now.

google pedometer, spreadsheets for activity and food.

Anything with my normal amount of salt tastes too salty to me now. I've been on the low salt salt diet for 4 monthes now.

I divided my calories into 3 meals and 1 snack and have been eating that way for 4 monthes. Tryed 3 meals and my poor husband just about left , as it affected my mood really bad. I had always had a snack before bed and my system could not go wthout it.

go to the doctor and have your colesteral checked. Men are not that special.

I am 5'2 151 . Ive lost 32 pounds already, but I'd like to loose 20 more, Please add me to your group.

Good job, you look great. I bet you feel great too.

When I was trying to Mine from 275 ,I ate it about 5 days a week and an apple every day, But I also cut my colesteral down to 100 mg or less. and started walking a mile 5 days a week.

fantastic!!
