  • My doctor and personal trainer agreed 1245 -1400 is perfect..for me.. I'm 5'8 and was 220, now I'm down to 203 it's been about 11 months since I started, but I did get really sick 6 of those months and gained some back. but Now I'm on the right track.. It really depends on your weight.. Biggest Looser Book tells you…
  • Hi AMY YeS! Your not alone.. I too have that problem and it takes time..Just get used to the treadmill, try just walking for about a week..then speed walk..at like 3.5 mph stay on that for a couple weeks..believe me you will sweat..then you can maybe do one or two jogs in between a 30 min walk.. That's what I have done and…
  • there is a pill that you can take to help with your bowel movements, ask your surgeon. I had my gallbladder removed about 12 years ago, and that was helpful..Eventually your body will get used to those foods again but for now eat low-fat foods in moderation. There is also almond milk, that is helpful you can buy it at the…
  • I agree with Superwmn..eat a salad before and then eat like grilled chicken and veggies.. like fajitas, but light oil..It's ok to modify. I worked in a restaurant for years and my husband is a Exec Chef. It's ok. You can make good choices with food..Don't be tempted. Good Luck Emily
  • That looks soooo good..the whole pizza with all the toppings or just the crust is 308..YUMMY
  • If you can afford it. Get a Personal Trainer and ask them. I don't have a clue. Seems like your doing exactly what you should be doing, but you never know. Some people say the same routine can stop weight loss. So mix it up, take some dance classes like Zumba..you can burn up to 600 calories an hour.. Good Luck! Emily
  • That's a real good one..Itunes...Me too.. Great Idea..I would have said Dark Chocolate..but I haven't had any in over 6 weeks..So i can live with out it.. :) :happy:
  • When you are sleep deprived, weight will rise..As far as the SF Red bull I think its OK. But if your noticing a change in your weight try only having a few a week.. Good Luck Emily
  • get a massage..That will relax you and revamp you for your week. And plus it's really good for your muscles. Good Luck. Emily
  • I just asked my trainer about this last night. She said that's fine, that it maybe some calories from sugar that your missing, but if you full then don't eat. Good Luck.. Emily
  • Hey there. Make some tacos, with regular corn tortillas not the crunchy ones. Add ground turkey or chicken with spices and you have yourself a fantastic tasty dinner..add brown rice, and black beans..you can also add cilantro if you like into your black beans I do that for yummy flavor..I think I will make that for dinner…
  • If your not adding salt, then I think it would be healthy. If it works for you keep doing it. I always add salsa to my eggs or chicken and It's fine for me. I would figure maybe like 20 to 30 calories and 0 fat because of all the veggies. :)
  • Hey Newbie.. A nice trick is to try and eat with in 30 minutes of waking up..and Squeeze a wedge of Lemon into some ice cold water to speed up your metabolism and drink lots of it..I too have about 75 pounds to loose..and it's helping..also..do some form of activity that makes you sweat at least 5x a week..If you want add…

  • Yes, I was on it for about 2 1/2 months. I lost about 25 pounds. With that all my eyelashes fell out, my hair did to. I didn't grow any hair on my legs, I got pale in my face and oh ya I had rapid heart palpitations, this started about 2 months into it. So needless to say I stopped it. and it took a good month for it to…
