I don't believe in depriving oneself. Everything in moderation/portion control. If you like veggies on your pizza - do that and keep it to 2 slices and don't stress over it. Just keep making healthier choices and exercise. Work it into your calorie intake and you won't feel like you are cheating. I tend to exercise even…

I love the fiber plus bars (not to be confused with the fiber one bars). They are yummy, high fiber and protein and about 130 in calories.

I always like the couple seasons better than individual so I am looking forward to the new season because of that but I am not sure I like having the second set of trainers. I will definitely miss Jillian when she leaves this season. The new season starts tomorrow!! I like recording it and working out on the stationary…

Thats awesome! Congratulations on hitting your goal! You will have no trouble accomplishing your long term goal!

I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I hope everything turns out okay.

Congratulations on reaching your goal!!! You look amazing! You should feel proud of yourself!!! I needed to see those pictures this morning. I have been stuck for the past month and I need something to help motivate and inspire me and you did that - thank you for that!! Good Luck with maintaining.

You go girl!! I wish I could say things like that to my mother -in-law. I have lost 60 pounds and she has yet to comment on that. Its like you have to be blind not to notice I have lost weight - no one in his family has said a word but they are super skinny athletic people - Oh well. I wish you all the best on achieving…

Congratulations on your weight loss!!! You should feel so proud of yourself! I have been wondering the same thing myself - I hope someone can provideus with some beneficial information!!!

I want to be at least down to 200 lbs by New Year's. That's 75 lbs down with 35 to go. Also with hitting 200 lbs - my husband is treating me to a reward of Lasik surgery for our anniversary/Christmas/Birthday. I haven't been 200 lbs in more than 10 years - I have been under that in a very long time. I have had some minor…

You look great! Can definitely see a difference - keep up the great work! You should feel so proud of yourself and Congratulations on your new job - that's awesome. Sounds like things are really going well for you!!! :0) mandy

Congratulations on the first 100 lbs!! That's truly awesome. I have no doubt that you will be able to lose the last 50!!! Keep us posted - I look forwarded to hearing about your progress. You truly are an inspiration!! Mandy

I have had the same issue recently, but I am trying to reach for something else like a friend to talk to or exercise instead of reaching for the junk food I normally reach for. It seems to be helping. Do you have a good support system you can turn to when you are in a "funk"? Most importantly - do not beat yourself up for…

I just went through this for the past 4 weeks myself and finally yesterday the scale moved. I have read from others that they tend to shake things up when it comes to their calories and exercising. Like they will eat a lil bit more in calories than they are supposed to for a day and go back to what they are supposed to be…

Welcome!! I think you are really going to like this site - the people are so caring and supportive! I wish you all the best on your journey - I believe you will succeed and I look forward to hearing about your progress! Mandy

Restaurant portions are always two - three times the size they should be. Next time cut your meal in half and ask for a box right away for the other half - then you are only eating half those calories.

Congratulations!!! You look amazing and are truly an inspiration to us all!!!

Welcome! I hope your recovery from surgery goes by quickly for you. Do you have a friend that would walk with you? I find when I don't have a friend to walk with that listening to an MP3 player helps the time pass by quickly - if you have one load up on your favorite upbeat songs. If you don't have an MP3 player - you can…

I agree with Harleygal. I log mine as light housework. I tend to clean for more than 2 hours at a time as it is, but even 30 minutes continuous burns calories. I tend to burn a lot of calories this way and I do work up a good sweat. My lifestyle thing is set for sedentary so this kind of moment is not included in what my…

I weigh first thing in the morning when I get up in just my undies. Hope this helps.

Congratulations! You should be so proud of yourself!!!

I did not know that it was possible to lose 50 lbs without a huge lifestyle change and pills I did not know that so many people suffer from PCOS and weight issues due to medical reasons until I came to this site. I did not know that I could finally feel proud of myself I did not realize how insecure I was and how much my…

Hi! I have had PCOS for 17 years - since I was 15 so I understand the battle very well. I have lost 50 lbs since being at my highest weight. I never thought it would come off but it has. I would love to say I found a miracle way to do it but I didn't. I added exercise first about a year and a half ago and several months…

You look amazing! Thank You for sharing your before and afters! You are doing great!!!

Are you eating enough protein and fiber for breakfast and lunch? Sometimes just the trick of adding a little more of each can really make the difference and keep you fuller longer. I am sure some would say what I eat for breakfast isn't the healthiest but I find it does pretty good keeping me full because if I don't eat…
