I've lost about 6-7lbs off my weight and only 1.5 inchs off my waist

So I leave for my vacation today. I am proud of what I HAVE done but I know I could of probably done a bit better since I had a bad week of almost no exercising and being a bit lazy and unmotivated this week. All in all I started at the beginning of March hoping to look good for my vacation. My goal was to loose 7 lbs. I…

I took an anxiety medication for about two months back in Sept when I got terrible anxiety and I did eat more. I stopped taking it after about two months and still kept eating but I noticed it was more of sweets and salty foods that I wanted. .

Getting fruits and veggies isn't a problem every week. lol I live right down the street from the grocery store. I get frozen veggies alot too for a side dish. I have a toddler that eats like crazy!! Of course she eats pretty healthy just about the same things as me but high amounts sometimes I don't know how she does it.…

I was just wondering around how much you guys spent on your groceries? And how often you go shopping? Growing up my mom never bought "junk" as I call it. She hardly bought pizza pockets, frozen dinners, chips and other things along those lines. We always had fruits and veggies and little snacks for school. We didn't have…

I made this for dinner too and used brown rice as well. I couldn't find any of the other one at the grocery store. and it was AMAZING!!! wow I can't believe how tasty this was, I will definitely be doing this VERY often!!! thanks so much!

This is the third time I've looked at this today and I think I will be going to the grocery store to get the stuff to make this!! it looks so fresh and tasty!

Good job, keep it up!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

I made this for a late breakfest/lunch today. It was so good. My 2 and a half year old daughter had one as well and she HATES avacados but she loved this sandwich. I used.. two whole wheat pieces of dempsters bread toasted in the toaster half a hard boiled egg sliced half a med. sized avacado sliced about a handful of the…

Yep! I wanted to loose 7 lbs and I am 2 lbs away from my goal however I am wondering if maybe another 5 lbs wouldn't be a bad idea. I think everyone gets like this. I am going to see how it is to maintain how I am and if it's TOO much hard work to just keep up the weight then maybe it isn't the correct weight for me or…

So I have heard of people who go on vacation and GAIN weight. I am going in 8 days and it's all inclusive obviously, so I will be eating alot and I am a dessert kind of girl so I know I will be pigging out on that stuff for sure. There's internet access but I don't think I will be going on everyday especially to log my…

I was doing so well exercising at least 5 times a week if not every day. Well last Friday I went to the gym had a great workout, saturday and sunday I had family from out of town over. Mon and Tues. were VERY stressful and I didnt feel like doing anything. On thurs. I went for a 30 min bike ride and ran around outside with…

Thank you very much.. To the other poster I joined beginning of March, I was looking to lose 7 lbs only, I've lost about 5-6 lbs so far and around 7 inches total! I am going on vacation in 12 days so I am trying to get comfortable in a bikini. :blushing: :love:

So I have had a very rough couple of days, I have not been watching what I eat really, well I have been eating pretty good just I know it hasn't been enough and I have had a handful of chips a couple of times within the last 5 days. I just had to give my dog up to my vet in order to try and get her better, the vet costs…

I wasn't too good today but I had a cup of mac n cheese with half a strip of bacon and a salad.

I guess anything is possible and it all depends on how bad YOU want to fit in that dress. If you really want too and are willing to do what it takes well then it is possible. But like others have mentioned, I have lost more inches then pounds on here so even if you loose inches that is going to make you fit into that…

I am 5'5, 135 lbs and about a size 7 right now sometimes an 8 depends on the brand

I feel your pain!! I was working but recently became a stay at home mom. I have an almost 3 year old daughter who is a busy little girl! My tip is, and I am not sure how your child is but I pop in a aerobic dvd and my daughter will actually "exercise" with me. She actually enjoys "trying" to do the moves as well, it's a…

Thanks very much everyone!! I don't really mind if I don't see the scale going down, I am just as happy with inches as long as my belly flab is still disappearing! :blushing:

I just lost two inches off my chest in this past week! I was really wishing that was my waist lol

So I lost two pounds the first two weeks I started watching what I eat and exercising. I haven't lost any more weight this past week but I have lost 3 and a half inches. If I'm losing inches thats losing fat right? I barely have fat sides any more it's just kinda chubby in my belly area still but it is improving. Should I…

Thanks for the suggestions. I eat bananas everyday and I get at least a glass of milk in too. I try to eat meat every day too. I just start to feel full and if I continue eating I feel like I am going to make myself sick and then I feel terribly full. I dunno it's strange, I just start to feel like I am forcing myself to…

I burned about 666 calories today and I was suppose to consume around 1800 it calculated for me. I ate about 1350 and I am STUFFED!! This also happen the other few times I've worked out and burned that much, I just can't eat all the calories. I feel FULL all day long and I hardly get a "hungry" feeling. I am 135 lbs. The…

Jump rope is definitely a great work out, I have a kiddy one that is a tad bit short, I really should get a bigger one :laugh:

Wonderful news!! Keep up the good work!

So here it is! Week one is 137-138 the other two are 135 lbs THANK YOU for the help!!

I thought I would just share my progress so far. The link I put isn't working, I use photobucket can someone help me out please?!

I eat all bran cereal, I am not really a cereal person, but I know that one has alot of fiber in it. I also have raisin bran too sometimes.

Thanks I will try not to eat 2-3 hours before I go to bed! :smile:

I haven't heard of half those cheeses so I don't think I ate those when I was pregnant but I did eat lunch meat ( from the deli), I know your not suppose to but I did anyways, I just would eat it as soon as I bought it and didn't let it sit long. It didn't do anything to "us" I had a VERY healthy baby over 9 lbs :laugh:…
