Yes you should eat more to keep burning calories. If your're not hungry don't worry if you have a deficit of 500 according to what I've read on this site or somewhere you'll still lose weight. Must eat 1200 calories minimum though don't subtract 400 for exercise.

Don't worry you are older so your metabolism is slower you might be doing something you are unaware of inadvertently like eating too much salt or sugar check you diet for hidden calories remember junk foods/fast foods alcohol etc are empty calories that means they make you gain weight.

You might have even reached a…

drink the milk I always tell my kids drink it because people in India buy milk in little plastic baggies the size of sandwich bags so its unfair to waste it

If you want to do strength training you can use anything similar size to dumbells like a can of soup or anything that works to do interval repetitions by doing these your increasing muscle mass. The other exercises I do is if your're an early bird and wake-up early you can follow any cardio or yoga routine on TV. Gardening…

red wine is full of antioxidents and good for you

I eat a teaspoon of nutella if my sugar craving gets really bad and I'm taking baby steps to curb cravings for example instead of 2 sugars in my tea I take 1. A piece of fruit is always good to help sugar cravings as long as you don't go overboard.

Its not you don't feel like its you don't like so do something else like someone did jumping jacks in place for 5 mins. I posted Idid jogging in place for 30mins one of my friends on MFP held me to it so I had to do it. It was tough but I did it in 10 min intervals. You could get up early and watch an exercise show and…

where's the like button on this thing. Yes, I knew that weight lifting burns more calories but you have to decide if you are exercising for your heart to be healthy aswell which one is more important.?

absolutely wise to skip those calories because there is such as thing as empty calories, these calories are not beneficial for your body the exist in such things as fast food etc and are not good for your,

very nice, well done now the key is to maintain it

Stretching makes your body toned so you look good and everything is in the right place and not sagging. For me its that extra secret exercise to make the guys turn heads and look me over. Think about it

my kids and i go swimming all the time step classes are fun too if you can make it there but take time out to tone your body on freeweights

I agree with Surfino do something you like or make a routine everyday for instance I try to get in 30mins of stretching combined with yoga relaxation breathing techniques within the first hour of waking up everyday or there's always some exercise on TV really early in the morning 6:30am? you could do that too as long as…
