I have a great and extremely accurate little scale that's for a reasonable price. It's called an Escali Primo digital scale. I got it on amazon. It has tons of great reviews. It tares to zero and weighs in grams, ounces and pounds. It can even go into negative numbers, so you can weigh by taking away food from a container…

Beans & Brown Rice together make a complete protein. I like red beans, black beans, or lentils. I make a yummy vegetable soup and add beans & rice. I like your question, it has been on my mind a bit too. I am not a vegetarian (yet), but I rarely eat any kind of meat... maybe once every few days. I seem to do very well on…

According to my nutrition instructor. If you want to lose fat. Low impact exercises burn more fat... the percentage of fat burned after the first 20 minutes is much greater. So, the first 20 minutes is normal percentage of burn. Everything after the first 20 minutes (without a break) increases to mostly all fat burn. Keeps…

GREAT REPLY! I AGREE TOTALLY WITH ANNE73...!!!

I agree with Laurie. I am with you... I was just thinking I need to weight only on Sunday mornings. My husband is off Sun-Tues and I can mess up with him around pretty easily. One thing I also thought of is that pizza can have a lot of sodium (salt) and it can make you hold onto water which will cause a temporary increase…

I think your plateau is probably your body in starvation mode. That is not nearly enough calories, especially with all your activity. I notice for myself, even the lowest recommendation of 1200 calories my body will not lose. When I up it to about 1600, I start losing. I am not nearly as active as you are. Maybe try eating…

What an inspiration you are! No surgery? I am impressed. I need to find more motivation and determination. I haven't been feeling real good lately, but I just know if I push through and lose this weight I will feel better, too. Thanks for sharing!!!

Haha! I know. It's tough to stay under calorie allotment. I've been trying something new for the past week and a half. 24 hours of feasting and 24 hours of fasting... until today I almost always still manage to eat pretty much all my calories for both days anyway and some days way more! I'll let you know how it goes...…

You are absolutely beautiful... are you sure you want to diet? You don't look like you have anything to lose! But to answer your question whole grain breads that have 3-5 grams of fiber are good for you.

@ soze Haha... that's funny and sad at the same time!

My daughter-in-law loses a lot of hair with every baby & actually starts balding. Good news! It comes back in afterward.. till the next baby!

Thank you so much. I just went through this and today amazingly enough, I saw a big drop.. I must admit I was getting a bit discouraged.:flowerforyou:

Thank you for sharing! You have so encouraged me today. My goal is 100 pounds, too... so far I lost 18 gained a few back and am 15 pounds lost again. I started about 2 months ago. I hope to lose the 100 in 18 months... but a year would be really great! THANKS & CONGRATULATIONS!!:drinker:

I don't see much difference either... surprisingly, but you really do look about 10 years younger! 25 pounds is a huge accomplishment... I wouldn't be too discouraged. keep it up you are already experiencing the health benefits! Awesome job!
