  • Some of my favourite vegies: - Definitely go with sweet potato or even purple/white yams- I dice it, steam it and put it in salads. Stops sugar cravings and keeps you full for longer.The texture of it in your soup (when pureed) is amazing too- makes it sweet and creamy. - Zucchini (maybe you call that squash?) is great…
  • Change gyms. You pay for a service not just the equipment. I've been going regularly for nearly 10 years and even though I could write my own programs now having someone to discuss my program changes every 6-8 weeks gives me new ideas, keeps me motivated and changes it up so I dont stagnate. Seriously, find somewhere else…
  • Salads (with loads of vegies included, soups, lots of beans, quinoa, millet. I can't have dairy (that's cow's milk specifically) but can do sheeps, goats and bufallo milk products in small amounts so check that it's a dairy and not a lactose intolerance.

  • I agree with roachhaley- maybe you rounded the scales and your dress size down earlier and are now rounding up?Are you friends and family noticing any difference in your appearnce? Have you been taking measurements and comparing? That's a lot of weight to lose and not notice any difference in your clothes. Once I'd lost…
  • Berlei or Triumph sports bras dont go up to my size and I'm pretty sure Target's official policies are that big-boobed girls don't exist let alone exercise. I recently bought a: NWT A172 High Control Level 4 Wirefree Racerback Sport Bra Black . Google or you can find it on ebay or "braonsale.com" I paid under $17 and it's…
  • I dont think it's cheating- I only vacuum my whole place every week or two but do it in about 20 mins and always work up a big sweat (moving furniture, getting under beds etc) doing it. Don't get me wrong, I'm not filthy and I don't add the activity so I can eat more- it's about logging cardio activity. I don't include…
