Protein gets me constipated :--( any ideas on how to work around it? I do eat lot of veggies and decent amt of fruits. more than 80g or protein and I am sorta stuck. help!

I do use measuring cups. I used to track food 6 yearsa go when I tried to lose weight, I measured very accurately and lost consistently. So I have a good eye for portions.. Something seems to be wrong since i turned 30 and had a baby ;--)

check out "thin woman's brain" book by dilia http://www.thinwomanbrain.com/ May be you dont have to count calories?

This.. Totally! I am in the same boat. Lost weight when I was 24, and simply doing the same now doesnt work! I am struggling too. Will follow this thread.

usually i do 3-4 days a week for 50mins or so. Lately since I Have some time I have been upping my workout times. My binge days are may be 2 days a week. I eat may be 2100cal. I do measure my food as accurately as possible, follow mindful eating, eat when hungry within limits. I do both cardio and strength. elltiptical…

tape doesnt give me anything... no change.. Is it possible i am losing in areas i cant measure...?

Oops I meant I am eating TDEE-20% for weight loss as recommended by a good post here in MFP. I have a good 30lbs to lose, i am overweight but not obese. I would like to lose atleast 1-1.5lbs per week. For examples last week I worked out for 7hrs total 6days in the week. My joints are strained, started having back problems.…

That is totally me-- a week ago! I have been on a yo-yo for 10 years almost. I know all the diets out there, I know wha tis healthy what is not, what to eat, what not to, how to workout, how much to workout. Everything. But I still couldnt do it and the weight loss was consuming me big time. So I was browsing for books on…

Hi there Been on the same boat a week ago until I read this book - HEre is what has helped int he last week. Let me know if it works for you. 1) Drink more water. 2) When you have these cravings, think about whether your body is really hungry (watch for symptoms like cramps, low sugar, growling stomach etc) or is it your…

Count me in! 5lbs lighter by my birthday!

Me too! I love my salad! No dressing.

My NSV for this week - have had like four people tell me I have lost weight, when in fact I havent! I have only lost inches. Feels good! A bit frustrating the scale though.

I am! I have a 15month old daughter. Will be finishing Month 1 of Insanity today!! Oh man I love it! Let us be friends and motivate each other!

Ugh I am there. Lost some 25lbs of preg weight and have been stuck for awhile. Trying out different things Doing insanity now. Losing inches but not weight! I have another 25lbs to go

Erinbeth and Jac, I will try eating some of the exercise calories back and see if that helps. I exercise about 400cals netting around 900..

Vansy, 5lbs is awesome! I had high hopes for the program, but I am just not able to increase protein intake. Can you share your diet plan and results? I hear you get real results in month 2, was that true in your case? Can we chat more? Interested in doing the right thing in month 2 to get maximum benefit of the program!

now_or_never1 I actually stood on it like 10 times in the last couple days variation was only within 1%. so I think it is pretty decent. I am not the one to believe these numbers by looking at them once ;--) Plus the inches, without weight loss, must mean something right?

My scale (Taylor?) shows body fat%. It may not be accurate but i did see it reduce from when I started...

To calrify, I eat only 1300 calories dont eat back exercise calories which is about 400 on days i workout.

Hi there. Yes yes yes! I reached pre preg weight when my daughter turned 9 months. It was a HUGE milestone for me. Worked out religiously 6 days a week, got back decently into shape. But I was overweight before getting pregnant, SO I still have about 20lbs to lose to reach my ideal weight. So the weight loss continues! Now…
