THIS. It is not always easy, it is not always fun, but if something is important to you, you commit. Did deep and find it. I finally did 4 months ago and this time feels different because it is....different because you don't give up. You can do it. Find it!

Peanut butter

On days when the gym is tough to get to, I take my LO on a walk with me in her stroller. I've also been able to adjust my work schedule to be more flexible. My best option is to let my SO take over for an hour or so when he gets home so I can take off for the gym. It is my time and I need it...its all about shuffling and…

Try eating back some/most of your exercise calories. You don't want to net that low. That means you are only giving yourself about 900 calories to run off of.

Can you go before work? I've learned to LOVE an early workout!

What are you eating? If you open your diary that will help everyone with their responses.

bump, read for later :)

Where can you have your RMR tested? I'd like to do this.

This.is.awesome. Also true

I have been TRYING to get better at this as well. It is hard. I have been combing through my diary and identifying the high sodium contributors. Then, I try to be very mindful or how much of these high contributors I am eating every day...IE-If I have deli meat--that is my highest thing of the day and I am very cautious…

I have the Polar F4 model and I LOVE it. I bought mine on Amazon to save some $$. Its my favorite weight loss purchase ever!

I bought one on Amazon for less than $10 and it is perfect!

Me too!! I'm 5'11 goal weight is around 185-190 (I think?) I just want to see 199.9 for now!! Then I will see how I feel!

I do an Italian version and a mexican version of these. I use a whole pepper (red, green or yellow) and stuff them- place standing in baking dish and heat about 350 for about 35-45 mins. Brown hamburger, onions, seasonings to taste- add whatever you want! For the Italian, I stuff with diced tomatoes, quinoa (you can keep…

Stuffed peppers!

I love these!

I am 5'11 too. Feel free to add me-its so nice having people around with similar goals! Especially tall girls!

Look into the "Spike Diet" good information

Much too low.... Have you checked out the Road Map thread?

This :) Always full of good info!

Feel free to take a look at my diary! My favorite snacks are: homemade roasted chickpeas flavored almond packs (100 cal packs) carrots light string cheese Lunches: Wraps (low carb wrap), deli meat (low sodium), cheese, peppers---yum! Big *kitten* salads :) I always chop up some kind of protein on my salad (usually whatever…

I agree. Maybe try adjusting based on higher activity. Good luck!

I LOOOOVE my Polar F4. I would suggest buying on Amazon to save a few $!

I have heard a lot of people recommending peanut butter for additional calories. That is great that you are feeling full!

I know..It has been sinking in for about 2 weeks now. I'm understanding more and more-I LOVE IT! I just need to hear it from fellow tall girls haha. Reassurance I guess! And yes, I am doing this for the long haul.... *Stepping ahead confidently** THANK YOU!

Mine are high too...but I'm 5'11. It is hard to adjust your frame of mind around higher calorie intake----especially when you're taller than most.

Thanks!

Do you really?! Abs?

Does anyone use these at work during the day? Sounds like a 75 would be best for me....always scared to try these but now I have so much energy that I need something different than my chair at work!!!
