Consider turkey products...they are generally low in calories/fat/sodium. Also, it is very high in protein...you could get turkey bacon and sausage, turkey tenderloins, lunch meat and ground turkey. Supplement your protein intake with casein or whey protein powders.

Protein shake. . .it's filling, easy and is healthy. Those really keep me on track. Otherwise, I eat eggs and a greek yogurt.

Do not crash diet. Focus on toning up so you lose inches. That's what I would do anyway. . .

According to my reseached, people who log the food they eat, are more successful in weight loss. It personally keeps me accountable. However, I could see how people can get obsessive with counting their calorie intake. It's not for everyone. Good luck!

I am also 5'8. My goal is 140 but I would be very happy 160 (this was my weight before I had babies). I feel like I have a big body frame. Good luck.

You look AWESOME!!

My 30th Birthday is in June. Sadly, I've been over 200 pounds all through my 20s. I want to celebrate my Birthday at 195 or under!

I would love to try this. This would be my first challenge, so I am not sure what I have to do to join. . .

You look like a different person!! Way to go.
