Also give your body at least 4 weeks to show any weight loss. It seems to take a bit for your body to figure out what is going on and to kick in to high gear. Hang in there. :smile:

has anyone tried jillian michaels work out game for the wii? I am trying to figure out which one to buy,

i agree olive oilis the best choice

After I work out everyday I am craving something rich tasting. I cut up half a tomato, half an avocado and add slices of 1 frigo light string cheese then put 1T of balsalmic vinegar on it. It is so satisfying. I cant believe I actually look forward to it! And man now that I have read the benifits I am loving that meal even…

thank you! The time is the biggest. I am one of those gals with about 12lbs to lose actually 9 now! Hurray! I have been working out since Sept and just now lost 2 lbs. ouch. I found this site and find that what I thought was healthy eating habits was not. For me I know now it takes exercising at least 4-5 days a week and…

Today was rough. I ate 119 over my alloted amount even with me burning 680 calories today. What is my problem. I think when I got on the scale and saw that I gained 2 lbsthis week it made me feel bad. Why am I not losing weight? I have been eating 1200 calories and working out 5 days a week burning 500-700cal a day. I feel…

I love LC! I bake a sweet potatoe slit it in half and add the garlic cheese or ranch flavored LC to middle and it is better than any baked potatoe I have ever had!!!! It is like ranch, cream cheese, sour cream, salt and butter for hello only 35 cal added onto whatever size sweet potatoe you pick. YUMMY COMFORT FOOD.…

thank you.

ok so if u know your stuff let me ask you the ? I asked earlier. I am trying to get feedback. If I am req to eat 1200 cal daily and I eat 1200 and excercise burning 600 and then eat say another 300 of my burned cal should I leave the other 300 alone if I am not hungry? I am thinking that will lose weight faster and i am…

oh emmm geee! Congrats! So are you eating the 1200 cal diet or sometimes more adn sometimes less? I am trying to figure this out! ha! Thanks ahead of time for your feedback.:happy:

thank you!!! I was starting to get greedy when it would say...If everyday where like today you will weigh xxx in 5 wks when all I took in was 800 cals! ha! I will not try to beat the number by not eating as I know that only kicks you in the rear later. Thanks again. I will keep you posted!

i think so. I used to know a girl who ate candy all day and was super skinny but seriously unhealthy. Also keep in mind the bad stuff doesnt keep hunger at bay like the high fiber, high protein opts so eventually he will crave more of bad to feed the hunger and gain weight. I think once in awhile is fine but hey...I have…

so I am brand new as of 3 days ago and would love to join. I am wondering I was told 1200 cal per day but when I log in my exercise it will suddenly say you have 700 more calories to eat. Trust me I love to eat so I find ways to eat and drink those extra cals but should I not be doing that????

think this for the bath , its a baby rm but it gives you a visual....http://www.unique-baby-gear-ideas.com/images/blackwhitepinkbeddingamore.jpg

I have some ideas from my interior design classes. a Turquise would be really pretty and someone above mentioned sea glass...that would be beautiful. Bring that color in allover, towels, rugs, accessories,pics...Also the yellow was a great idea. It depends on whether you want a snappy contrasting bathroom or some spa ish…

I do a protein shake in the morning and for lunches I do this. On Sunday I make hard boiled eggs. It is so easy to grab one and a piece of fruit, and string cheese to take on the go in my bag so when hunger strikes I have options. Also I try to eat whole food as often as poss. becuz they are healthiest. My fave lunch after…

I always like to have a glass or two of wine and some chocolate. I would think about how you might feel like you have rewarded yourself with something special. I would feel jipped if I spent it on walnuts but we are all different. I suppose the healthier options are better but seriously, I go to the gym so I can have some…

Your pic of your kids is adorable. How did you get that and the ruler with how many lbs you have lost to show on your reply? I would love to see that. Talk about being held accountable!

wow this could be better than facebook! ha!

I just posted an awfully uncomfortable picture of myself, but it is to keep me motivated so no judging!
