It is easiest in apps form in my opinion... Well to start with. Today has been the first time I have logged on on our computer. SO much cool stuff. Basics are all you need, track, get a good support network and keep it up. EVEN on vacation, or a holiday!! I went to Disneyland in November and ate what I wanted because how…

walking is good. If you want to join a gym try the elliptical. IT is the best way to get a good cardio work out. and it makes you energized. I started really slow! Did 20-30 min. of cardio and some light weights (natulus machine) I don't like running, so treadmill is only interval in fast walking and moderate walking. Good…

added! :) You can do it! I have lost 105 lbs in 10 months. People ask what I do, and there is a lot to it. Tracking in MFP and keeping accountable is a huge part of it! I work out 5 days a week and eat 1200 calories. I am in the care of a weight loss doctor so I have other aspects of my new eating habits. I started out at…

That is pretty quick. I hope to be down 30 lbs by next September. I gave myself a 18 month goal last February/March to lose over 100 lbs. I am down 105lbs. have about 30-35 to go... Don't be too hard on yourself. Get there meaningfully so you keep it off. :) Best of luck in your journey!

You need to eat the calories you are burning in exercise. And some doctors go as low as 800 Calories, what my doctor will say is... "if your hungry eat! if your moody, dizzy, headache.... EAT!" Do you take any appetite suppressants? If not then you may consider one. Depends on what your doc says. 800 is low unless you…

75 min of cardio seems really long, I usually do a warm up of cardio and then focus on upper or lower body strength training then end with a cardio that isn't too intense. Total of 25-30 cardio per day max. Though it depends a lot on if you are training, losing, or toning. I am losing an toning, I find more days a week at…

My doctor told me that when we get sick we retain water. I usually maintain or gain a few oz. when sick... Rest assured if you drink lots of water and exercise next week you will be down what you really lost this week plus what you would have lost next week as well. Typically I drop a lot after recouping from illness. I…

I am 5'6" 178, I have lost 105lbs so some of my size is due to still needing to tone and tighten skin. I currently wear a 11/13 depending on size. 12's fit best. I hear though that most are in a 7/8 at 150. I am currently in a size medium shirt. Go's to show how different each shape is! :)
