Absolutely, Im absolutely convinced the only reason I can't shake the last 10-15 is due to my red wine consumption......working on it ;)

Ive been here 963 days and its still a daily struggle but this holds me accountable. I don't do any of the fad diets (paleo, low carb, low fat, atkins etc) I believe those all work great in the short term but I have seen way too many of my friends revert right back because its not a sustainable way to eat. I believe in…

Feel free to add me, ive been on here 906 days now and boy are you right about lifestyle change. After all this time I still struggle, up and down 5-10lbs but everyday I wake up I log on here and realize today is a new day, I am not the only one with this struggle to incorporate healthy eating and exercising. I will…

Not sure where to go but I do know where NOT to go. I went to scheels and they had me take about 5 steps to and away from them then sold me a $120 pair of brooks. I didn't notice a bit of difference from my $80 New Balance btw!

No one should ever go below 1200 cals, unless of course you are pro ana and this is your thing.......not healthy!

Wow, id be thrilled to have 2 hrs every day to devote to exercising.......with that being said I think if you want to be really accurate buy a HRM (I have a polar ft 7). This shows the amount of cals burned based on your heart rate. 350 cals a day of burning cals is great. just keep thinking some people are sitting on the…

Thank you, ill read these!

Can someone please put it in an easy to understand way how upping calories will give you a loss. Isn't high calories what got us all here in the first place. I would love to grab on to this since extra calories seems fun but I can't wrap my mind around it! If we could all up our calories and lose weight then why are we…

For me exercise is "me" time, it improves my mood, my health and my body so I do believe it is good for you. Happiness and sadness is in the way you choose to look at things. I do not like mood altering drugs but agree some people may need them. If you haven't tried the all natural approach like choosing to be happier,…

These are exactly what I eat when I need a ice cream treat!

Totally agree, way to few calories, your muscles are starving! Will be counterproductive

I would agree only if these animals were taken from the wild for our consumption but we are "growing" poor animals to slaughter, if we stop the farms from purposely reproducing then of course we would not have an over abundance, animals in nature would take care of the population of other animals in nature........not to…

I went to hagerstown md last year, unfortunately it wasn't for a pleasure trip.............feel free to add me, ive been here awhile!

Ive thought of this but I live in an area that has brutal winters 7 mo out of the year, ive tried canning but holy expensive batman, once you get all the supplies needed that is..

Spinning does a lot more than for the legs.....its great for the abdomen and as a calorie burn.............

This!

feel free to add me, I have been here for a long time!

Haters will be haters, and jealousy rears its ugly head-if she is fat she is disgusting, if she is skinny she is disgusting-very sad people, very sad :cry:

Awww man, now my brain hurts!

Feel free to add me, I am 44 and not only am I perimenopause but I have thyroid disease so that is making it so much harder to lose weight, I am determined though so I keep on doing what I can to stay healthy and lose a little weight!

Unfortunately I think its the joys or perimenopause. I am 44 and ever since I turned 40 no matter what I do it is incredibly hard to lose even 1 lb.....

This......I have hashimotos too plus I am in peri menopause which is further hindering weight loss but its not going to be an excuse for me, it will be harder no doubt but it can be done!

Wow, thanks for this recipe, I just printed it off and can't wait to try it!

That concoction sounds amazing btw- It takes on the flavor of what you add to it. I love the red variety from trader joes! Its super healthy for you so I hope you like it!

bump for later-

140 would be great!

I have polar ft 4, nothing fancy, just the basics-all I need or want is to know how many calories I burned and how long and how far. Amazon is a great place to buy these too! Hope that helps

I struggle at maintaining, it was so much easier when I was actively losing, now its creeping back on slowly-hope we get some good advice!

I have the polar ft 4, not a huge fancy one but does exactly what I need it to do and I love it

Jealousy, so sad.........
