Nice abs! Good job! I'm at goal weight now and working on getting my abs in check!

I never used to pay attention to what I ate, now I can't even imagine eating that.

This will be my 1st Holiday season while dieting/eating better and exercising. I do not plan on depriving myself of food, but I will control my portions and not over eat. And of course, keep exercising so I can burn all or most of my extra calories!

I love to eat too, I always ate like it was my last meal on earth. What I did, since I can't give up all my favorite foods is 1) allow a few cheat days per month, not per week 2)when you cheat, don't completely blow it, make sure you exercise that day 3) since you love to cook and experiment, try new ways to make your…

This is what works for me. Are you drinking enough water? Try replacing a meal a day with a protein shake with fruits. I never ate enough fruit and veggies, but now I make sure I get plenty. I've cut my portions way down. Walking at least 5-6 days a week for 1 hour, 4 miles is what I do. I am watching my fat grams, carbs…

I agree with your post, I read somewhere that you shouldn't eat your exercise calories until you are closer to your goal weight.

I've never been a smoker, but I would say try quitting for sure. Walking, even if it's just 20-30 minutes a day to start. If you have a friend/spouse to walk with it's easier. Cut back on portions, I still eat a lot of what I always did but way, way less of it and use healthier ingredients to make it. Skip the bread, if…

Why is everyone typing bump?? I'm so confused!

I weigh in the morning, same time. Started out weighing every day, now every other. I had to in order to keep myself motivated.

I'm hungry now....:-)

You can use hot sauce instead of the taco seasoning and probably save some sodium. Use corn tortillas and make soft tacos or pile on top of lettuce, tomatoes, pinto beans, cheese, hot sauce and have a salad.

Thank for this information! I am at a healthy BMI and I probably a healthy weight even though I still need to lose 8 pounds to meet my personal goal and I'd really like to lose an extra 5 pounds so I don't have to stress about getting over 130 again. :-) I have been kinda stuck for about 10 days, so I need to change some…

I have wondered the same thing. Sometimes I am hungry at bedtime, so I grab a few carrots or drink a big glass of water and I'm usually fine. I am losing, so even though it says I'm "starving" myself I don't think my body is reacting that way.

Wii Sports (I think it's called) comes with Boxing and there's a training section that has more boxing workouts as well.

I started noticing at about 12 pounds, but barely. I did not take an actual "before" full body picture. I should have, I'm down now about 18 pounds and it's equating to 2 sizes. Also, I have lost inches more than anything, be sure and measure your waist, arms, hips, thighs, etc.

I try to walk every day, 1 hour. Even if I can't, at least 45 crunches and 2 reps of 25 each leg lifts.

I was wondering the same thing. Mine is shrinking, but is it ever going to be flat?
