I would eat plenty of lean, clean foods earlier in the day. You will be full but not ingest a lot of calories. I would also drink 8oz of water about 30 minutes before you eat. Walk a lot, fidget, stand, be active. Sitting effectively halts calorie burn. So just try to do a lot of chatting, etc.. while standing. And, enjoy.…

I have much much experience with this myself & have done loads of research. Let's chat. I'll send a friend request. It can be many things. Not enough calories, temporary while your body adjusts to new workouts/eating, adding muscle under the fat, adrenal fatigue, low thyroid, lowered metabolism by too much dieting.... but…

I lost over 35lbs in 3 months with turbo jam. I just had to finally commit to it. You can read my story and see my before pic on sculptyourbodyfit .com I'm not even joking when I say that Turbo Jam changed my life and that Chalene Johnson helped me love myself for the first time ever. :) Good luck girly!!

This is about Optimal Health. If that includes weight loss, so be it. Welcome and good luck!!

I have a Bowflex with a chest strap. It was $140 but I luckily got it clearanced for $40 at Big 5. I fully recommend one with a chest strap. I haven't heard much on this model, not enough to recommend it. I've run into a few exercises that cause the chest strap to lose contact with my chest & lose the heart rate…

I've studied this topic so much as I am worried about this ever going away. What I've heard is that once we get to our bodies set weight it snaps back into place. Of course it took years to stretch out & has been stretched out for years so it could take years to go back. Sloughing of dead skin layers helps collagen…

I got it for my butt. When I felt how much it works the core I had my boyfriend do it. I told him 30 days can't hurt. His lower back pain is completely and totally GONE :)

I woke up at 5am on Valentine's Day to workout so I could spend my night with my honey. Let me just tell you that I SUCK in the mornings!!! My body wasn't warmed up enough & I didn't give nearly as much as I do at night. I'm a night owl honey. I sleep at 6-7 hours.

Have you tried eating healthy carbs throughout the day like fruit? It sounds like your body really needs the boost. You generally crave what you need, there's just always a healthy or unhealthy way of satisfying those cravings.

What are you doing exercise wise, food? What motivates you?

My computer's double-posting. I'll be back later. I still would love to get to know you all!

Cortx- Good for you! I know you can do it! I was close to meds for high blood pressure & turned it around in less than 3 months. It just takes loving yourself enough to push through when you'd rather hit snooze. Sherilynn1- Awesome! So many people don't realize that extra 100 calories a day can add up to 10lbs a year! Less…

She has sculpting and ab work built in to this. All the moves and jumping build up muscles too

I own almost every Beachbody DVD (Turbo Jam, P90X, Turbo Fire, Insanity, etc...). They are how I've lost all my weight.

Welcome! Proud of you for taking this step for your health!

MEEEE!!! Any bets on if Elizabeth cries? LOL

Good luck! There will be hard days, just ask for a little more support those days. You CAN do this!

I love Frado. I want him to win. I want Elizabeth to slip on the stage & ... oh no wait.... she'll just cry AGAIN if that happens!! GAG!! Please Elizabeth... Don't show up!

Awesome job! After my divorce I GAINED 65lbs :( Glad to see you are using it for a positive change in your life! Welcome!

Nutrient dense cleanse where you don't starve, Shakeology cleanse. Stay away from harsh or starvation cleanses. They're so hard on your body!

rather then bump my workouts up after Turbo Fire & Insanity, I am taking a period to utilize a different type of exercise and have ordered Yoga Booty Ballet: Ab & Booty makeover. Who doesn't want those made over??? LOL ;)

Nice to meet you! Awesome job so far! :)

Never too old when you are FIT!

What an awesome Mommy! :)

Log away! How are you ruining the holidays? I remember me 62lbs heavier, hating myself, crying in between bites. My family loves the new happy me & they accept that in order to keep myself in check I log what I eat. I don't judge, I don't name calories, & I don't ask them to be anything other than what they are. Here's the…

Yes I do. Get creative, Take your time. Thoroughly give 110%. You will feel better physically, mentally, & your relationship will be dyno-mite!

EAT on P90X or you will not have the energy to make it through all the programs or give 100% effort! I loved doing P90X!!! I ate plenty, worked out hard, & watched my clothes get bigger & bigger every day!!

I'm down 62lbs and the first thing I did that really helped was just MOVE. Fidget, wiggle, run in place while watching TV, do a few pushups against the sink every time you use the bathroom, etc... Just get your metabolism going. A Biggie is to find your soul mate workout. Everyone has one exercise or thing they can do for…

Shakeology for breakfast every day keeps my digestion going & no more belly pain/stomach freak outs. They are the worst!!!

Jane... I like the way you think! ;) I'm going to ramp up the walking & see if I can find a good indoor pool here. Seems like that's the lowest injury possibility. With it being my neck, everything affects it. Even looking down at a piece of paper. I've been partially restricted because of my shoulder & pain for a few…
