I am in the same boat. It is hard, but you can do it if you stick with it. Good Luck!

it was very helpful to get an idea of what might be possible. Thanks for making it

I add a tablespoon to my cereal or salads. They are great in many different things.

I've had mine for a while now and love it.

congrats! It sounds like you did really well.

I'm on every day...feel free to add me if you want

I'm glad to hear I'm not alone

My legs hurt more then my butt. I've had to start breaking up some of the squats into smaller groups to get them done.

Rough start, but I'm hoping the challenge will be just the change I need to turn things in the right direction.

Sounds like you are off to a good start with your plan. Good luck with everything.

It is always nice to have some outside energy to keep you motivated and moving. Plus Zumba is more fun with others to laugh with when you make a mistake. I'm glad you are having so much fun. keep going

You look great congrats on the pay out to all you hardwork

I would love some clean eating buddies to help me stay on track while I start forming new habits and eating better diet.

I have a key chain with a elastic wrist band to wear or I can put my keys on the arm sleeve that I wear my ipod in.

walking is how I started getting back into being active. Its a great place to build from

welcome and good luck! You can add me if you want to. I'm on daily and I will help you if I can.

sounds yummy

I loved my pedometer when I first started walking because it gave me a good feeling to see the steps add up as I wore it during the day.…

welcome and good luck. I always try to keep portion control in mind and read the labels on everything you eat. Moderation is better then taking things away completely from your diet.

Welcome to the site and good luck. I started out where you are about three years ago. I'd be happy to help anyway I can. Feel free to add me

walking is a great way to start exercising or swimming is great too.

you need carbs too just not a whole lot and mostly whole grains. I try to get more to eat more protein because you are right it does take more protein to build muscle. Each person has a unique balance that works best for them. Try to up you protein while watching carbs. Everything needs to be portion controlled, but carbs…

thanks for your suggestion. I knew it was likely that I wasn't always eating enough, but I wasn't sure about the numbers. I'm glad that I found a place where I could ask the questions I needed to ask without to many negative or confusing answers. Thank you all for your helpfulness with my problem.

I don't eat my exercise calories I just tally them up because I'm not sure I have the numbers set right. I have been eating at my bmr for the past month. I lost a pound and gained it back over the course of that month. I'm willing to allow my body to adjust in any way it needs to I just want to be sure I'm doing it the…
