I ALWAYS give into my cravings, but I just have a tiny bit. I think its much better than trying to avoid it and obsessing about. Just have a few bites and enjoy it and move on!

I use it as well, on days that I do not feel like going jogging. It is so much fun and a nice twist to the regular workout. But you would have to do at leat an hour I would say. And pick songs that are fast and require a lot of exercise. I also add extra jumps and moves that help me burn more.

Mine too, anyone add me if you want more friends

Yup me too.. one of the main reasons I want to lose weight is because of my belly. I try crunches.. sit-ups, everything but it wont help if you have belly fat. Gotta lose the pounds! There are certain foods that help trim belly fat like salmon, lots of veggies

Hey guys! I am Madeleine, 29 years old around 5'1'' and 134 lbs. I have lost about 10 pounds in the past 4-5 weeks and I have not been starving myself at all. I cut out so much junk food and everyone is right, it is about eating the right stuff. Here are some examples of my meals, in case anyone need some ideas. I find its…

Hi there! I dont see much veggies. Try and eat veggies with every meal, here are some examples: Lunch/dinner: Chicken breast, salmon or another fish with frozen veggies, maybe green beans, mixed vegatables and maybe beans or lentils Keep repeating the same meals over and over, keep it simple and mix it up by trying…

OMG people, you are driving yourself crazy with all these numbers! MFP already calculates it correctly... and if you have a big workout, you can eat a little more. Simple as that

Egg white omelet with spinach and feta and maybe turkey bacon

29 years old 5'1" and 134 lbs. I eat around 1200-1300 calories a day and if I exercise I eat more. I have consistently lost 2 lbs a week doing this and I feel great

From South Africa, have been living in NJ, USA for 8 years and now in mexico for a few months before moving to Colorado

I dont think I could ever give up booze! Unless I am pregnant of course. I have cut back on drinking a lot, no more ice cold beers every night but I will have one one weekend nights. Instead... I make home made mojitos yummy!!! I squeeze my own limes, make a bunch extra and freeze the rest. Then some fresh mint leaves,…

Salmon fillets are GREAT! Walmart (here in Mexico, but I'm sure its in the US as well), sells wild salmon fillets, a 100 calories and its individually packed. Really easy to cook. Just add a little olive oil or spray canola oil in a non stick pan and it cooks in about 5 minutes. Add a little sprinkle of water too if it…

Hey I wanted to share this with you, look at this website http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog/2007/04/06/how-to-lose-20-lbs-of-fat-in-30-days-without-doing-any-exercise/ I have done this in the past as a diet but did not work at all.... because I ended up cutting out way too many things and was craving everything like…

He must want it for himself. It took me a long time to get to the point of changing my eating habits and choosing a healthier lifestyle and maybe he is "not there yet". I have been talking to my husband about it more and he seems open to the idea for eating healthier, exercise more etc. What does seem to make him "ponder…

Yes I am a huge fan of salmon. Walmart sells these wild salmon individually wrapped, so easy and quick to cook. Cook up some veggies on the side or some lentils for extra protein, and you will feel great and full. Great for the belly!!

Wow congrats that is awesome and you look amazing!

I know it seems like a long time, and you are right it will take a long time. But remember, if you lose weight too fast, it will be easier for you to gain it back. Losing more than 2 lbs a week is not a good idea, although they make it seem normal in shows like "the biggest loser". You can always try to exercise more if…
