This is great. Thanks for sharing!!!

I think you have to do it when you can regularly fit it into your schedule so that it becomes part of your daily routine. I personally work out right after I get off work. It helps me to destress after a hard day. I have actually started looking forward to it every day.

I do my workouts after work. So I time a light afternoon snack for about 1 hour before. Usually I will have some yogurt with fresh fruit or granola. It keeps my blood sugar from dropping near the end of my workout or on my drive home.

I like to slice them, spray with a little olive oil cooking cpray and add cayenne pepper or creole seasoning, then broil them. A little sweet and spicey.

The point of this whole process is to stop eating excessively period. You are not doing yourself any favors by not making yourself accountable for what you've eaten no matter what it is. Sure vegetables are low calorie if you eat them in their natural state. A lot of people will rationalize over eating by saying "oh it's…

I'm a big fan of yogurt most of the light varieties are 100 calories or less and some of them even help with a sweet craving. I also like nature valley granola bars. 1 bar is 90 calories. I will usually pair one with a yogurt prior to my bigger workout after work.

That is great!! My husband cut out Soda as well and lost around 10 pounds just from that change. Keep up the great work!!!!

Hi! I'm Jo Anne. I've been following consumer queen on FB for a while and found a post about this group today. I am working to lose 60 more pounds in hopes that I can get my PCOS under control in order to hopefully get pregnant. I walk at work every break and I love EA Sports active on my playstation 3. I try to get 4 of…

Awesome work. You have so much to be proud of!!!!

My definition of "eating clean" is eliminating processed foods and trying to stick with food that I prepare, fresh fruits and vegetables.

Great post! Thank you. :o)

Unfortunately PCOS can lead to Diabetes among other things. Don't lose hope 134 is not as bad as it could be!! You are making the right steps to correct it, and sometimes it can take medication to help us as well. It is great that your physician referred you to an endocrinologist. Many are specifically trained to help…

The majority of cruise lines have some really nice healthy options that you can take advantage of.. and you do not feel deprived at all. It's all pretty and gourmet and usually served by a very cute waiter. :o) I highly recommend going to your seatings at breakfast and dinner if that is offered by the cruise line you are…

I try to always have yogurt and a variety of fruits/veggies on hand. Sunday is my typical grocery day and then I spend the afternoon getting all of my produce washed and into snack sized bags. My main go-to's are grapes, apples, oranges, berries, celery, carrots, bell peppers. You can stay fairly inexpensive if you buy…

EA Sports active is a great one.

Thank you all for all of these great ideas!!!! List is now made and now I must tackle the store and watch my budget! That's another topic for another day. LOL

Yum! Perfect for a chilly day like we are having today! :o)

I have 50+ to lose and I am also looking for support. Feel free to add me. :o)

Since your body is burning more as you gain more muscle, make sure your calorie count isn't too low. Your body will fight you if it thinks it is starving. Just keep excercising and take your measurements, I bet you'll like what you see better than what that evil scale is saying right now. Hang in there, and keep it up! :o)

First of all, thank you for what you are doing ,as a person struggling with infertility it really touches my heart. I have spent the last 2 years struggling to get pregnant. I have been on Provera, Chlomid and Femara. I have experienced weight gain with all if I wan't watching what I ate and also my activity level. It is…
