Thanks!

Bud select 55 tastes like water, but the 99 calorie isn't too bad.

Congrats! You are doing great!

I actually posted the same thing yesterday, but I was gonna quit for a couple of days because I wasn't seeing results fast enough. And I am back today, I couldn't bring myself to not log on. I just need to be accountable for things I eat, so I realize why I am eating each time. For you taking a break might help, but for me…

I am afraid that my hrm is overestimating. I subtract 200-300 calories from my hrm. I am just a little down, I needed to vent. I probably just need to cut back a little on exercise. Thanks everybody for being so helpful. I do 30 day shred once a day and twice everyother day(hrm says 400). And taebo everyday, between 30-50…

You look amazing! Congrats!

I bought it a couple of months ago. Its got some good recipes in it, but you really got to watch the sodium. She is really creative though, I am finishing off a batch of chocolate muffins, which are the best thing I have ever made(low calorie). It was worth buying!

Thank you. I feel like a goob!

It has no chest strap, but Ive taken my pulse after doing taebo and it was 155. That just seems like a lot of calories.

I got one at walmart last nite for 30.00. I used it this morning, and its pretty easy to use. I just hope its accurate. Its called sportline s7.

Thanks everybody, I feel better knowing that I don't have to eat like a rabbit, but I'm really gonna miss my mesquite turkey breast. Thanks for that tip about potassium, that really helps.

This site is supposed to be supportive. Have you heard the phrase " If you dont have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all". Making a life change is difficult, and there is nothing wrong with taking some help from God given natural things or advice from friends. Just keep your opinion to yourself if you have…

I am having the same problem. I started the 30 day shred over a week ago, and still doing taebo every other day. This week I thought I would lose a good amount, but guess what?! Only .8 pounds. What a disappointment. I am 5'3" and 185. So I thought cutting back my calories and exercise would melt the fat right off. But no.…

4 inches, really? Did you do any other exercises with it? When does the soreness stop?

My calves are killing me, and I only made it halfway through the pushups yesterday. I think I did a couple more today. I'm ready for day 3 though! Hopefully the pain will subside soon.

So my net should be 1200 or more? Mine has only been over one day in the last seven days, and about 800 the rest. Is that why the scale has been going up?

I got the dvd and 2 pound weights today. Is the workout only 20 mins? That doesn't seem like it will do much. I've been doing taebo every other day, but I'm not losing weight. I want to burn fat, will this work?

I stopped watching last season, so I feel ya!

Thanks everybody. This is a hard thing to do, but ya'll make it doable. Thanks

I was the same way. I have to physically remove food, and put it out of my reach. I can't just split portions on my plate. And I have to quickly throw my daughter's food in the garbage when she is finished to avoid eating her food. People say that lowfat is not the way to go, but for me it is. I got the hungry girl…

You stole me recipe! lol It is sooo good. I used brown rice also, it just need to cook longer.

You need to go to the hungry girl website. She has some really good ideas. They aren't bad with a spicy marinara, alot of red pepper flakes. The fishy smell really threw me off. I hate the smell of fish. I just have to rinse them very quickly. Good luck!

Try shirataki tofu noodles as a pasta swap. I absolutely can't live without pasta, but even with whole wheat the serving size it tiny. So I switched to the tofu noodle sub, and its really not bad. And the serving size is huge. Well worth 40 calories!

Welcome. and good luck! I think you can lose weight without exercise, but you can't indulge near as much. My love of food is my motivation to exercise no matter how tired I am. You can do it, just try to find something you don't dread.

you should get the book hungry girl 300 under 300. It has tons of fast simple lunches, most of them are really good too. Good Luck!

that is the cutest pic!
