I have done low carb for over a year now and if you are willing to do it their are some good and not so good carbs most on here will say all in moderation but I just cannot handle some carbs that's why I am low carb. If you are looking to lose carbs should be under 100 a day check out marks daily apple just google it he…

I have not ate at McDonalds for 6 yrs and every time I pass one the smell makes my tummy feel all gross.

Your muscle is holding water to recover your weight will go down. The day after I go to the gym for weight training and cardio I actually weigh 5lbs more the next morning that is why my weigh day is 2 days after my last day at the gym for the week. Get you water in and it will change.

I love it, I need to rod more also. The chocolate is really good. I like it with my celery and apples I also like that it is so easy to put into smoothies and other things to add flavor. I occasionally add it to my chocolate protein shake and it tastes like a peanut buttercup. Some add it in their plain yogurt or pudding…

Have you thought of a gluten or dairy intolerance? I now many people who can eat it and they don't feel sick or anything but their bodies just cannot digest it well and that would make you look preg or have a beer gut. I get like that when I eat to many carbs from things like noddles and bread otherwise I am fine. Just a…

If you are sore from exercise you should be resting and eating plenty of protein to recover your muscle.

I love my oatmeal with flax meal and 1tbs honey and 2 eggs with my big glass of water.

For my sweet tooth I chew gum, especially the new desert gum from extra mint chocolate chip ice cream is my favorite and the strawberry shortcake they have flavor for a long time and it keeps my mouth busy.

I have a bodybugg and that is on my left arm. I recommend it to everyone by far the most useful weight loss item I have owned, and I have lost 105 lbs already. The body media ones are so awesome they have an app for it and it uses Bluetooth I might just have to get a new one. Maybe

Me I love my arms it's my mid section I don't like, but I do weight training 3x a week so arms can look great with weight training. I like curls, rows, bench press just find what you like.

Everyone is right, if you don't have a treat once in a while then you will binge I have done it and won't go back to that. My weekly treat is a mocha coffee with whip at caribou every Saturday while I shop. It is the best.

I am 5'4" and my goal weight is 125. But for you question no you are not fat, instead of losing weight you should think about changing your body composition meaning build some muscle and lose some fat. Muscle will burn more calories and is healthier, that is where I am at right now I already lost 103 lbs but need to change…

Go with kashi cereal if a cereal is a must for you and Greek yogurt, that is how I started and now I love Greek yogurt and use it for everything. It makes a great substitute for sour cream otherwise go with something totally different like eggs and egg whites with whole wheat toast and an apple. Best of luck that sugar is…

Fist of all how everyone wants to go about their healthy lifestyles is up to them. I just wanted to say that I am a clean eater and a lot of people have said that it is more likely for us to binge eat because we deprive ourselves of certain food choices well that is not true, I still have pizza and ice cream but I make it…

Thanks for the suggestions, I will try to lower the cals and up the cardio. Yes I do eat my exercise cals but not all of them, when I am at the gym I burn anywhere from 450-650 a session depends on the day. Cardio I think is the hardest because of my knees, I was 262lbs and I am now 159 so I have some damage to my knees it…

I drink 1gallon a day at minimum, why well because I lift weights and it helps in the recovery of muscles.

Here is my favorite 1/2 cup cottage cheese 1/2 cup plain yogurt or vanilla 1/2 cup grapes 1oz peanuts This is the best when I first made it I thought no way this will be good but I LOVE IT!!!!!! Keeps me full too.

Flax seed oil or flax meal 2 tbs once a day it is the best natural thing available.

I do it also, eat clean that is. I do have two things I have not got rid of my one can of diet pop a day after I drink my gallon of water for the day and I use crystal light in half of my water for the day or I don't get it all in. Love it makes you feel so good.

I am 5'4" and 160lbs and wear a size 8 or 10. It really depends on where you carry your weight.

Ok I have to ask what is the difference from waist and belly button measurements, I have always only measured at my belly button and the difference between hips and but. I know stupid question but I thout these places where the same. Thanks for clearing it up for me.

I watch food shows all the time, I find for me it does not make me hungry it is interesting and fun to watch and I am staying away from the kitchen. My thoughts are if I am not moving then I should not be eating. So watching tv means no moving means no food. Works for me.

I have one and use it everyday. I love my BUGG! It keeps me accountable and moving and it nice to be able to know what you burn during exercise because for me the machines are way off.

I am 31, 5'4" and 156lbs I am doing weight training 3x a week. Thanks for the help.

I do cardio 5x a week 3x for 45 min and 2x for 30 min.

Try flavored coffee, that's what I do.

I can tell tou Medifast works I did it and lost 107lbs but it does ruin your metabolism mine was so low that 1200 calories a day was to much and I would gain weight, but I had a lot to lose I went from 262 to 155 in 1 yr. If you don't have at least 100 lbs to lose I don't recommend it. Right now I am working on getting my…

I would not recommend it, I have lost 107lbs on a low calorie diet and now I am dealing with the fact of rebuilding my motabalism and that is not easy. I used to eat 1200clas and no exercise and it lowered my burn so bad that anything I ate over 1200 I gained weight my body just would not burn it. So it has been a long 4…
