Yep, I know that feeling. First, you have to find the right balance of filling foods that are healthy. That is a whole other topic. Then you have to move away from the snacks! Putting food in your mouth becomes such a habit! And you think you are hungry but your not hungry, you just want to eat. Try chewing gum, going for…

Congrats! You look awesome! And thanks for sharing that you don't eat your exercise calories back! I needed to read that!!!

Amazing! So what are the three vital steps?

I took Adipex once. One pill a day made me completely loose my appetite. I don't know how many calories I was eating but I bet is was 800 or less. I just didn't want food. I did loose weight! If only I knew then what I know now about diet and exercise I would have worked harder to keep it off. That said, they are…

I'm paying close attention to fat grams and trying to reduce them, but not my calories. Hoping it works! Good luck to you in whatever you decide. Don't give up!

I'm in the same boat. I decided that this week I am going to cut my fat grams in half to 20 and see what happens. I did a diet years ago where I only ate 10 grams of fat per day and it worked but I feel that is too low for the amount of exercise I do now. Hoping this will nudge the scale a little!

Fruit, chicken, lettuce. Repeat.

cardio: walk, run, spin, elliptical

I have a torn rotator cuff that I got from working with a trainer who was pushing me too hard. I tried to deal with the pain but when it hurt to pour a cup of coffee I went to the dr. He gave me a cortisone shot, a prescription for pain and sent me to therapy. I told my therapist to move on with it because I was sure it…

I would definitely count it! You could drive and not get your heart rate up. But instead you walk. I work out in the gym too but also try to go for an afternoon walk with my dogs just so I can burn a few more calories for the day. It's good for all of us!

I went shopping today. The first pair of shorts I tried on were too big so I went down a size. I thought it was a fluke but the next two pairs were down a size as well! I haven't worn an 8 in a while! I guess my 12's from last summer are going to Goodwill!

Hi! My name is Lisa. I will turn 50 next month. I absolutely love life right now but not the way I look. This middle age spread is not my friend! I am looking for support and tips to help me and encourage me to attain a weight/figure that I am happy with. I completed two triathlons last year but still didn't seem to loose…

I love all vegetables, especially roasted! Turkey burgers (P90X recipe). But my new favorite, quick lunch is Chick fil-a grilled nuggets and a fruit cup! I could eat it every day!

I'm right there with ya sister! Everyone is different but I loose if I stay at 1,000 as well! Keep up the good work and do what works for your body!

That is awesome!

Yep. Been there done that! I even wasted January and February and the last 5 years of my life with those same feelings. But no more. I'm not going to waste any more time with waking up being fat and having regrets and saying today is the day. That was yesterday! Today I have lost 7 pounds, have gotten out of the 160's and…

Drinking wine! But I've had the aha moment, hopefully. I work out pretty hard (5-10) hours per week. I've realized that the wine is sabotaging all of that hard work! I am basically wasting my time as far as weight loss goes. SO, I am trying to seriously cut back. I'm beginning to look at it like the enemy! I would never…
