I would start building some muscle, https://bodybuilding.com/exercises

diet is 80% food 20% exercise if you only focus on your exercise and don't pay attention to what you eat you will not get anywhere you didn't say anything about what you do for food, I can help you better if you give some information on your food

For me, I am in the "so hungry I eat everything in sight" phase about one week before my period starts. I use the Life Period Tracker app and it is so nice, I add notes about my eating habits/cravings and any bloating/weight gain.

I probably sound crazy but I have been keeping body measurements since 2014 and I can tell you for certain that you will see 1/2 inch increases every now and again; that go back down the next time I measure. I have noticed that my arms and legs are the places where this happens most often and I am certain it has to do with…

I would suggest talking to your OB/GYN about this. They will give you the information you are looking for.

Load up on veggies! Eat more vegetables than anything else. A good example is to eat 1-2 heads of steamed broccoli at dinner & make sure to eat it FIRST, you will get full on your veggies and eat less of other things. Make sure your small snacks have protein! A go to lunch would be a fresh rainbow kale salad with homemade…

If you can't live without it, you don't have to. If you are looking for a solution; you could just try reducing how many you drink a day. So say you drink 5 a day, then for the next week or so don't drink more than 4. If you could handle that well then reduce it to 3 & so on until you reach a comfortable limit or eliminate…

For me it was actually just yesterday. I am 5 lbs from my original goal & yesterday I finally felt good about myself - good enough that I am going to start maintenance today until after the holidays. I have been aiming to lose 55lbs; but when I hit 40lbs lost I actually was thinking to myself that I should lose 10 lbs more…

You don't have to wear it on your wrist. You can wear it around your ankle or just slide it further up your arm. If they aren't big enough for your ankle you can use a hair tie as an extender for the strap.

I am 5'6" and I currently weigh 142.8 lbs; my goal is 135. I personally think 135 is ideal for me. If you feel too thin then maybe you need to reevaluate where you want to be. If you are feeling "too thin" because someone else's opinion of you then you need to reevaluate how you take peoples criticisms. My belief is that I…

I want to start off by saying that I do see a difference in your pictures! Great progress! When first started losing weight I would look in the mirror and all I could see what I have left to lose not how far I have come. Which was pretty negative energy so I decided to not use that as my "progress indicator." I didn't…

I soak them in coconut water overnight and use them in my smoothies.

I use Ogx Coconut Milk anti-breakage serum https://ogxbeauty.com/hair/coconut-milk/anti-breakage-serum/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=ogx-nonbrand&utm_term=coconut%20milk%20anti%20breakage

I am glad you said something! So many women don't understand the correlation between band size and cup size & shame on Victoria's Secret for their "fitting" techniques! All these bras (28G = 30FF = 32F = 34DDD = 36DD = 38D = 40C ) hold the same amount of "breast tissue" even though the "cup size" is labeled with a…

I read this recently and I feel like it fits well with your question; ""No diet works for everyone and every diet works for someone.""

My Dad and Stepmom have known since the beginning that I am trying to lose weight but it took me loosing 40 pounds for them to notice that I was actually going to reach my goal and say some nice things to me about how good I look now and that they are proud of how far I have come. I really appreciate that they said that &…

I only log drinks with calories. I am sure there are plenty of people out there who have zero calorie drinks that they don't take the time to log.

Get an app that tracks your weight trends and weigh yourself daily, I use Happy Scale. You can use it to help you see how your maintenance calories are working for you. You may be able to eat more than you have allotted yourself - or you may be able to be more lenient on yourself for a little while. Are you worried that if…

I am using the app "happy scale" because it shows your weight trends. (I am currently using it to lose weight) I will still be using it when I go into maintenance so that I can make sure I am staying on track. I weigh myself daily and input it into the app. It has a setting for lose, gain & maintain weight.

Wear this wrap at night, to avoid bending your arm in your sleep. Also wear it when you know you will be lifting or bending your arm for an activity. This is what helps me.…

The reason I log my food is to lose weight; if I didn't log veggies then I could very easily go over my calorie goal for the day and never lose weight. I understand that veggies are healthy but I would feel like I was wasting my effort and would feel defeated when I didn't see the scales move. If I burn 1400 calories & log…

My father has used it and he lost the weight and has kept it off for 3 years so far. I tried one of his Isagenix drinks and it was sooo sweet it was just gross; but he has no issue drinking them. It is also expensive and add that to my grocery bill for a family of four and I would be broke! I have lost 40 lbs by counting…
