One thing you may want to do is start my invcreasing your level of activity. By doing this it will change what your body feels that it needs for example more water. As time goes on don't be afraid to experiment with different fruits and veggies that maybe you've never tried before. You can also occasionally pick up a mens…

I alternate my weight training days with my heavy cardio days. I do a total of 6 exercises minimum of 2 sets with 10 reps. Since I do it like you would circuit training or plyometrics it takes me close to 30 minutes. then if I have time I will do 15-20 minutes of light cardio after

The biggest complaint with diet soda is that often times it is high in sodium. That extra sodium in turn can cause your body to retain water thus slowing down your rate of weight loss. I know there have been several reports as of late about peoplw who drink diet soda weighing more than those who don't etc. BUt I did have a…

Ok ladies... for the ab issue I strongly recomend either picking up a copy of Oxygen magazine or going to their website www.oxygenmag.com. It is a womens fitness magazine and most of the exercises are ones recomended by women who are fitness professionsals and many of them are moms. I'm not quite brave enough to post pics…

Protien shakes can be really high in calories so you need to take that into account. You don't have to use protien shakes to bulk up it can also help with muscle repair after doing cardio. Being vegetarian I'm sure that you most likely already take a multi vitamin. But you may want to try to increse you're Soy intake…

Ok feel free to laugh my motivators are kind of odd. 1) all the skinny girl clothes in my closet that i can't fit back into yet. I may end up tossing them because they are outdated, but I at least wanna be abel to fit 2) I just bought a bikini and I will wear it in public before the end of summer 3) wanting a new closet.…

You may want to start by watching your sodium. if your sodium levels are too high then it will cause you to retain water. also look for vegetables that are considered to be fiberous carbs things such as celery, spinach, asparagus and romaine lettuce. You may also want to start taking a multivitamin as well

Trader Joes has a different atmosphere. I am a trader joes Fan, but as far as selection I woudl still probably go with whole foods. Joes is good for specialty stuff though. it's just on a smaller scale.

you may also want to re-check your form. I have the same issue with stationary bikes. Not the ones where you are actually in a bicycle position, but the ones that are like a chair with peddals. but i realized that it causes your knee to move in a different direction which kind of throws your muscles for a loop trying to…

As we all know our bodies need protein. The problem occurs when people often times as a result of not drinking enough water will begin to have kidney problems. With protient your body can't store it so it has to process it out. your kidneys needs lots of water to do this, so if you're not drinking enough water it can cause…

I've gotta give you props for being part of the Bariatric unit. Personally if it were me and I had an emergency and they had to a) cut a wall out of my house or B) it too more then the crew of one ambulance to lift me I would be incredibly motivated to adopt a healthier lifestyle.

The key about a diet is moderation. Cheat Days ar all about no moderation. While I understand that there are days when you are gonna go postal if you don't have a cookie or your schedule that day has you in a position where you healthy choices just aren't avaliable. BUt when that happens you have to find a trade off. For…

I use mine for al kinds of stuff. you can also use them for lower ab work. you're not actually sitting on the ball, but you re holding it with your feetwhile you do leg lifts, it forces you to engage more of your muscles.

I'm not 100% sure, but the extra lactic acid could be causing some water retention that the scale or whatever you are using to measure body fat is mistaking for fat. I know that when I have a really hard core weight training session and I am super soare in large muscles groups such as my legs I tend to gain a few pounds…

Lots of my "fat clothes" have hardly been warn so I am going to have a yard sale to help declutter other areas of my home and out them in that and whatever doesn;t go I am going to donate. I do have a few items that are very near and dear to me and I want them to go to people who will appreciate then so some of my friends…

For em doing a daily weigh in works best for me. Sometimes the scale may not move for a week or two, and if I see other improvements then idon't worry about it bt if I see no improvement and no change in the scale it lets me know I need to start re-evaluating my plan and making changes.

Forget what other people say... I'm not gonna lie It's not always gonna be easy, But the results will be worth it for you in the end. Oter people only think it's hard because they haven't figured out the right way to do it yet

Wow they are really lucky that they didn't try that with me... They would have received quite the reply on the fact that the not eating meat thing doesn't actually out your soul in mortal peril it was the popes way of helping out the fishing industry, so it was more of an econimic helper than a spiritual one. Be either way…

yeah as convenient as the mircowave meals are the actual health factor i think is in question because of all the preservatives. I have learned that I can prep up a tatsy health concious meal in mass qualities and heat it up through the week for quick meals. it makes it easy and helps keep me on track.

Pretty much everybody feels that way about something they haven't done before. Just remember start at the back so you are close to your water when you need it and hang in there the more of it you do the better you will get.

Main reason is the sodium. There may be times when you stall out or you feel bloated which may be a result of too much sodium. by at least logging it you can look back and see if that is what may be causing a plateau or if maybe it is something else. It's just like logging water. Water has absolutely zero everything. But I…

Have you tried Jump Roping? It's a good cardio work out and it is semi low impact for your knees. I have known lots of people who have had knee problems but they could still jump rope some.

IWe all have days like that. With all the cold weather we haev had I actually fell of track for a week. But just get yourself back on track, ultimately exercise is going to be your best friend on days when you eat whatever. Plus that can be good for you from time to time becuase t keeps your metabolism from stalling out…

Don't feel bad I fall off the wagon at least once a week. let yourself have the small indulgences So you don't totally fall off and over do it. You can totally do it you justhave to tell yourself you can

Other than drinking water I have also found that taking a multi-vitamin helps. often times you will also feel hungry if your body is beginning to suffer from deficenies. try to find one that you can take 2-3 times a day. That way you can take it with brek fast and lunch withoutr unning the risk of long term deficencies…

Look at the types of foods you are eating. Part of why you are always feeling hungry may be in part becuase the foods you are eating may have calories but they aren't providing your body with the nutrietnts that it really needs. On top of that 2 weeks isn't a very long time, healthy weight loss should be 1-2 pounds a week…

Part of why high protien diets are big is that your body can only process so much protien before it passes it out of the body. So unlike carbs that can be converted to sugar and eventually to fat , protien is either used or discarded so it's not stored. This can lead to feeling more satisfied rather than always feeling…

I have done them in the past. before you go make sure you take a shower and exfoliate. If you have any lotions on your skin when they put the sunless tanner on it can cause it to streak. The one that i had done was in a booth and it came out just fine.

Keep up the good work. 15 pounds in 15 days is really rapid weight loss. I'm not sure what you are doing other than tracking your calories, but to be on the side of safety and keeping the weight off you may want to evaluate what you are doing. While I know that depending on where you're weight started at (if you were in…

Taebo can be really hardcore and burn alot of calories kind of like Zumba. It just depends on how hard you were working.
