I'm a big fan of fiber lots of whole grains and fiber to fill you up. Also as above posts said lots of water and bump calories.

34 here and always looking for motivation or others to motivate

It all depends on how big you are and what you eat now. Log a typical day eating e way you normally would and then cut back from that. If you find you were eating 3000 calories a day cutting back to 2000 would help you lose 2 lb a week. Just don't cut back so far you can't control your hunger and have lots of water and…

If you're Looking for support feel free to add me, however remember no one can motivate you like you can. You have to want it and be dedicated to achieve your goals. Having friends to throw in a good job now and then does feel good though

Also keep in mind the exercise is to help prevent loss of muscle mass. Being on a deficit your body will consume some of that lean muscle with the fat. Keep it up and log everything

The outside of the store is almost always safe, great advice. Make sure your breads or grain based products start with whole grains too. If the first ingredient isn't whole it's not whole grain.

Don't buy new, salvation army or other used clothing stores are great and a lot of times you can get new clothes that still have tags. Either way I don't mind replacing clothes hat won't fit in two months when I can get a wardrobe for less than a nice pair of jeans and shirt.

Water weight I lost 15 in the first 2 weeks, ans have been 3lb a week since. Eat more if you're active. Let MFP set your goal based on a weekly goal a d eat back some if. Ot all of your exercise calories. It feels good to eat and lose weight and your body will recover so much faster.

Add me if you want I'm always looking for the same

Plug you information in and let MFP do the math for you. No you don't have to eat 1200 calories to lose weight or maintain it. Adding exercise also increases the amount of calories you can consume and lose weight or maintain it.

if you really want to add a little something to them add a cup of cooked brown rice, can of diced tomatoes, some onions, green peppers and garlic and you've got a power house whole grain high protein meal that rests in your stomach like a rock. Its a staple in my house.

Eat some back it's fuel for your body. I don't know about you but my car doesn't run on e and neither do I. When I dont eat the, back I find I'm lethargic and don't make gains in the gym. I don't eat the, all back but I look at it as my eat whatever snack I want fund. Burn 500 extra calories and enjoy something if you…

Nothing wrong with video exercise as long as it works. Last week I was at the gym and paying for a Zumba class for my wife and they thought we both wanted to take the class. I'll stick it's cardio and some good old fashion tony Horton butt kicking video before I do Zumba but to each their own. If you're looking for friends…

Killed my workout tonight after a soft morning of cardio. My arms feel like rubber and it actually hurt to lift them to brush my teeth

Air pop some popcorn it's a great snack and filling too. Three cups popped is around 90-120 calories depending on brand

Under eating can be as bad as over eating. Let map do the math and eat what it says to lose say 2lbs a week. Add that 30 minutes of cardio and think of them as free calories you burned methemoglobin and they are yours to eat back if you choose. Or use the, as additional deficit. Don't forget lean muscle burns more calories…

Clean eating you simply get more for less. Eat 1500 calories of twinkies and tell me if you can eat just that all day. I can eat clean with loads of fresh fruits and vegetables and be full all day on 1500 calories

Awesome start, keep it up

Nice

Awesome job there's not much in this world to make you feel as good as acomplishing that

Feel free to friend me, I've got a similar goal and know how hard it is to work and have a family life while getting. Healthy.
