i see it for sure. it's very obvious in your face and neck. you actually have a neck now!. and i can see it in your mid section too. You're doing a great job!

think of it this way, alli teaches you to eat right using rewards and consequences. if you eat too much fat, you are punished with gross nasty diarrhea. if you don't eat too much fat, you are rewarded with weight loss and no embarrassing trips to the restroom. But you can still over eat without going over in fat, and then…

it depends on what you weigh now. If you are already a pretty average weight it might be a bit harder, if you are on the heavier side it will be easy. either way they are very realistic goals.

thanks water4life.

i have a food scale... i don't see how that would make a difference though.

usually about 2 pounds. i woud suggest that you cut your sodium intake though. by the looks of it you are going over 2500 everyday, sometimes by quite a lot. this is most likely causing you to retain extra water.

i've lost the collectors edition $5800 "earth" atlas. (63 pounds)

when you are that over weight, and you make a big change by cutting out a lot of foods, yes, it is common to see that much weightloss. alot of it was probably just water weight your body has been holding onto. as you lose weight and your body becomes used to your diet, they weightloss will slow down to a more normal rate.

when you finish your diary for the day, do you read the fine print under the part that says in five weeks you will weigh ____lbs? if you haven't it basically says that eating less than 1200 is dangerous, and it also slows your metabolism and slows your weightloss. assumming that you are in fact logging all your foods, it's…

i use land o lakes as well. and we also leave our butter out.

i just made this for dinner tonight. http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=677637 i used frozen broccoli, carrots, and cauliflower with cheese sauce, instead of just veggies. green giant makes one with 45 cals per serving. i also used half a cup of the fat free cheddar, and half a cup of the 2% cheddar.…

1. How many people do you know that are raising a child(ren) alone? 2 off the top of my head Are they male or female? female 2. Were you raised by a traditional parenting system or non-traditional? (Mom and dad, 2 dads, 2 moms, adopted, aunts, uncles, foster homes, institution, etc.) non traditional i think. my biological…

yes, that is normal http://www.healthchecksystems.com/bodyfat.htm

you are good in assuming that the salad is not always the best choice. so stay away from what is obviously a bad choice, and try your best to make a decision on what would be a better choice. stay away from the carbs and starches, so not pasta, bread, or potatoes. order veggies as your side, preferably plain. eat all your…

oh no! i hope it doesn't get to germany. my husband was stuck in balitmore for 5 days because of ash. it would be my luck that right around the time he's supposed to come home, there is more.

you very well can do both. just for some people it's hard to give up two things at the same time, and they find it easier to work on their diet, and then work on smoking. but that doesn't mean it's impossible.

find out what BMR is and eat less than that. i'm not sure, but 3300 sounds like a lot of calories for someone who doesn't exercise.

yes it's normal. your period schedule is easily altered by several variables ranging from, change in diet, change in activity level, weight loss, weight gain, stress.some women are really sensitive and even random things like weather can affect it. obviously make sure you are not pregnant, if it's still MIA after 2 months…

with out knowing your height, no one can tell you if you are over weight. if we knew your height we could tell you your BMI, that would give you and Idea, but since you said you are muscular, it probably would say you were higher than you are. your best bet would be to find out what your body fat is.

personally i loved insanity. i also love that they switch the work outs up, so you aren't doing the same work out over and over like with jillian's shred.

also get your iron levels checked.

yea, using it the next day is fine. you get into a danger zone though when you are -200 under mon, tues, wed, thurs, so that on friday you have an extra 800 to spend on alcohol.

i don't use that brand per say, but gerber makes a similar one called smart sips. it comes in plain, strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate. and yes, i use it. i try and buy the plain but if it's not available i'll get something else. the gerber and enfagrow brands are basically the same thing as pediasure. they aren't an all…

Send the baby dust elsewhere Ed. I've already got one that I love, but I'm not interested in another. oh wait, I'm safe. A crucial part of the equation is currently unavailable for such tasks.

ed, thank you. my husband and i have been having some issues in the love department. so i think i will put this into action.

what works for one person might not work with another. so try taking it on an empty stomach or an empty stomach with a glass of water. try taking it at night or morning instead of mid day. if nothing works, try a different vitamin. i take children's vitamins, because my body can't handle any adult ones.

yes it is correct. if everyday was EXACTLY the same as today. which is impossible. there are too many different factors from things think when you ate, how much you slept, how much insignificant exercise you got (like walking back and forth from the fridge). and into that your metabolism changes daily, and the more weight…

i don't have a job, my husband is gone, and when i'm out of the house i can use my iphone. i've got plenty of time on my hands. when my husband come home i'm not sure if i will be on as much as i am, but i'll still be able to do the basics of my food/workout log.

going over every now and then,is not going to make a difference. for the most part it does look like the carbs you are eating are good choices. if you are really concerned about it, you can switch to a low carb yogurt, and switch to a lower carb bread, sara lee makes one that has 14 carbs for two slices and wonder makes…

i like to study. I'm not in school anymore, and even then i was never very good. but i love studying and learning. so i'm constantly online looking up things to learn about. i also read all of my husbands military related books he needs for work. is supposed to be studying for a big test, but he get's so bored with the…
