So much unsaid... Was your starting weight high? It may be best to talk in terms of % as opposed to lbs. Drinking lots of water? Staying away from saturated fats or at least setting a target reduction amount? Get some data built up on this site so you can review your progress.. Once you've established a zone you can begin…

Go to: MY HOME Goals Change Goals Custom Setting Here you can set your Carbs, Fat and Protein in percentages of your total caloretic intake. Mine is 55C/25F/20P. This works for me as I'm in a reduction phase on the fat. I was really into burgers and fries and ice cream so instead of doing a drastic dump, I'm walking it…

Set up a zone around your target amount that is +/- 10%. Focus on your weekly/monthly average. Protein is the most difficult nutrient for the body to convert and therefore can stress the digestive system, especially the liver and kidneys, when digested in high dose.

Sometimes a cold is just a cold. Yet something I've found to be Very helpful is "Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar". Just a teaspoon in a glass of water every morning and you'll help alkalize your body to prevent colds. Helps to breakdown acids and germ build up, so it reduces all kinds of the bad stuff . You should also take no…

Crazy I know! Was just thinking about how I would much prefer the weight just drop of my stomach because I care nothing about losing belt sizes! I mean, who wants new clothes anyway? Okay, new duds are nice, but really, I kinda like some of the threads I got.... So the best thing for me is to think from within. I know I'm…
