Nice. Dogs who don't exercise, especially German Shepherds run into huge medical problems (weak hind legs and others).

Good for you!

OMG! you are such an inspiration!

20lbs and i will be happy...seems like the toughest but at least i caught myself now..rather than way way later :(. maintaining it has been easy but boy, dropping it is a bit tough

Thanks so much. Really helpful. I did a search and found this video also which was quite helpful to me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYqDT2pJTuo Based on this I bought a Saucony and man, it works! I had never used a Saucony before so I am quite surprised to see how well the shoes are made. I tried it yesterday and it was…

Yes I agree also. I loved the Nike Equalon 4 but it has been discontinued which is really really a shame. :(

Thank you!

Thanks. I did go to a store and they recommended GTS which was a disaster. I am reading a lot of articles that say these specialized shoes are not necessary and you only need regular neutral shoes. :( So this is why i am really curious about what others are wearing if they overpronate and whether if works for them.

Fantastic, thank you for sharing

Avocados are also high fat, high calories.

Have you tried lentils? I don't eat meat. I have a slow cooker and lots of lentils at home, different kinds. . Very easy. Go to an Indian store close by-Look at their lentil section.

E;g I eat eggs for lunch, mostly boiled. The only change is dinner which I never have any idea what I will cook but that said it is one of the 10 or so…

Good points. You are right, patience is key, I got a bit out of wack wondering how in earth would I weigh 149 after 5 weeks :). Yes one lbs a week is fine with me. I have successfully maintained my weight over 2 years and sometime before that I was at a healthy weight. A year or two of unhealthy habits added the 20lbs. oh…

I never eat breakfast except for a cup of tea. However I have seen how little energy my mom has now at the age of 70, she is super weak and would never eat breakfast. Lesson learnt. A very simple receipe I have found is to soak rolled oats overnight, cook them for 6 min in the morning. Take a bowl + one tsp brown sugar,…

Thank you to you both. Yes it is very annoying so I am just going to use the input for daily calories to make sure I am on track on my calorie intake.

Add me!

Good for you, keep it up!

Wow, excellent!

Congratulations! You should be sooo proud! Really hats off to you as it is not easy to change a lifestyle!
