I think it's a lot of hype personally.

Technically you are supposed to eat those calories, but personally, I don't always. I just don't see a need to "force feed" myself the extra calories if I'm just not hungry. I read that if you switch up and eat more calories one day and less the next, it tricks your body and keeps you from going into starvation mode.…

i ready that small bursts of exercise over the course of the day is just as effective as one long workout. I like to use the videos that break the workout into 10 minute increments. Right now my favorite is "Biggest Loser 30 Day Jumpstart". It's separated into 2 levels of 10 minute cardio, upper body, lower body, and abs.…

Yep, I have that problem pretty often too. :flowerforyou:

It is an awesome feeling! You go, Girl! Keep it up!

We all fall off the wagon... just tuck an' roll, then jump back on!

I used to be allergic to poison ivy also. My doctor gave me allergy shots for it for about 2 years and now I don't react to it at all. (That was 4 years ago) :flowerforyou:

You came to a great place! Strong support system and it really works if you work it!

I read that you can mash cauliflower in your mashed potatoes. I haven't tried that one, but I do like to blend up a can of carrots in the blender and put it in my spaghetti sauce. It really doesn't change the flavor much and it's a good way to sneak in some extra veggies. Also works for picky eaters (My son hates…

I read that losing fat but gaining muscle can do that. :flowerforyou:

I have plantar fasciitis and had to stop walking for awhile. I bought some sketchers shape ups and they have made a world of difference because they are very well cushioned on the bottom. But they run small so you have to buy a size larger than you normally wear. Academy Sports carries them for $99.

I agree with everything everyone said. Also keep inn mind that you may be building some muscle, and muscle weighs more than fat. So even if you are not really showing a "weight" loss, you may still be losing fat as you gain muscle! Just take it a day at a time and if you fall off the wagon one day (we've all done it) get…

:flowerforyou: I eat kix cereal in the morning with lowfat milk. 1 1/4 cups of kix with 1/2 cup of lowfat milk is 150 calories and usually fills me up. It's worth a try.
