Linseed does have fiber so that may help some but I would still try adding oats and other sources of fiber into your diet. I believe your daily recommended amount of fiber is 35-40 grams so just try to increase your intake.

You have lost 75 lbs already and that is enough motivation to not give up! You have already lost more than half of the amount of weight you wanted to and that is a hard thing to do :) You obviously know what your doing because you wouldnot have made it this far already. So congratulations and keep up the good work! You…

The key to continuing your weight loss is to raise your metabolic rate.. You need to burn MORE calories per day than your Resting metabolic rate (which is determined by the amount of calories you burn doing NOTHING in a day.) You've already lost 100 lbs and that is AMAZING! However, the more weight you lose the more…

Isolated soy is much easier for your body to absorb (its plant base). Having two shakes a day should be great for weight loss so starting out with the two shakes is probably ok. (Atleast that is the process with Herbalife).. I'd definitley try drinking more water and I would add fiber like Oats to your protein shake that…

what kind of soy protein is it isolate? or unisolated? I drink an isolated soy protein shake (herbalife) and it does not cause bloating, its easily absorbed by your body..however, it DOES make you feel VERY full.. try drinking more water to decrease your bloating!

Maybe since you love your "seconds" try putting half size portions on your plate at a time, then when you go back for seconds your really only consuming 1 serving size. In the meantime, you've only consumed one servings worth of calories and your giving your mind that time to "feel full"

I used to have the same problem.. I'd lose weight easily then gain it back after thinking "oh I'm good now" and go back to old habits. I've realized that it has to be a change of lifestyle if you want it to be permanent. You just need to stay on track by continuing doing the things your doing now without thinking of it as…

I think working out in the morning will give you that extra energy throughout the day so that always helps me! Maybe try breaking up your usual morning routine into one smaller session and then do the remainder half of your routine at night so that it doesn't seem as long and doesn't break into the rest of your routine as…

Yes, as someone said, drink lots of water! water helps plump your skin and helps hydrate your skin. When you lose weight your skin gets dehydrated so the water will help plump up your skin again. Also make sure your exercising to help muscle toning.

I have a VERY hard time drinking water..may sound silly to people but the taste of water actually makes me sick... :( I used to LOVE water, I'd drink 10 water bottles a day ATLEAST.. until I got pregnant 3 years ago and it made me sick and to this day the taste of plain water is not a fav. of mine... I actually found a…

Don't give up! this time of year is a hard time of year for everyone..surrounded by tons of food, holiday after holiday. Stay motivated though, you've already lost 20lbs and thats a HUGE step. Believe it or not, this time of year is the best year to start a weight loss program and keep it off.. so stick to it your doing…

Here is a breakdown of a variety of products that give you your daily necessary protein.. I personally use Herbalife and have this information from them, so of course, I have included their information as well. Hope this helps!~ DAIRY PRODUCTS • Egg whites: 7 whites = 25 grams • Cottage cheese (nonfat): 1 cup = 28 grams •…

best place to measure your waist is at your belly button... its the only part on your stomach/waist that won't move during your weight loss process :)

I make my own meal replacement protein shakes and bars at home.. all of them are less than 280 Calories, with 50 grams of protein less than 18carbs and all less than 20grams of sugar. I used to drink slimfast shakes but they were no where near as satisfying and did not hold me over long at all. I also tried the special k…

Cassie, Personally, I use protein shakes every day. Its an isolated soy protein shake which is much easier for your body to absorb. Adding protein is going to boost your metabolism and help natural satisfy your hunger.. I follow a program to maintain my weight and its very satisfying as long as you mix up the recipes.
