Make a batch of low fat chili at home. Then microwave half a potato and cover in the chili. Bring it to work and re-heat it. Sandwiches are great. Grill a portebella mushroom. Put in a container. put in a baggie, peppers, onions, spices to taste. Another baggie with a bit of cheese, I like asiago or parmesan. At work, put…

Thank you all so much! I struggled for so long and tried every diet in the world. I finally have the right diet for me! If I can do it, you all can do it too! Keep going and do what works for your body!

Gubercullen: You have such big, expressive eyes. They are the type a guy could fall into!

Along with the toning, I loofa and then use Cocoa Butter twice daily. It really promotes new skin rejuvenation and tightening of the skin. It does require time though! You will not see results over night! If you have any stretch marks, vitamin E oil is great to minimize the marks.

Because of the hormonal changes in the body during menstruation, weight gain, or experiencing to weight loss is very common. This is often water retention and will balance out when menstruation is finished. Drinking water is helpful.

What a horrid thing to say to you. It is no wonder you are divorced. Skin tissue does shrink with time. Keep the girls well supported and Loofa and use cocoa butter. Your skin will slowly respond. Bra size can change with the style and brand. Schwartz's is a great place to get fitted. I am not sure where you are located,…

I am actually glad mine have shrunk. I can find more choice in fun bras, and I don't have to worry about gravity as much. I am currently at a D and I hope to get down to a C.

http://www.dancewearsolutions.com/DS03.aspx Here is a link to the shoe! It is called the Dansneaker. Order a half size larger than you would normally get.

The shoe says, DS03 C11 C1 202848 there is no particular name. It has a canvass upper. I totally look like a duck dancing, but inside I imagine myself like a swan. I was raised on oompah/polka, my German heritage... so I think we are in a similar situation! Well, the important is that in my head I am Ginger Rodgers. I…

Meat from buffalo or venison is a great way to get a nice low fat cut of meat. Choose sirloin or tenderloin and you will be fine!

Hello All...47 in May. Fairly new to the boards, but not new to weight loss. Have one son all grown up and now I get to focus on myself and my husband. I love Zumba, Just go a pair of Jazz shoes (highly recommend!) and they are great. Very easy on the knee joint when dancing to Zumba. I have lost over 55 pounds since July…

You can also try BBQ pork skins. They have 80 calories per 1/2oz serving with 5g fat, 0carbs. I get to crunch on these like the others get to crunch on popcorn. I usually bring 1oz and that satisfied my cravings!

I just got Underarmor compression bra and it holds me in very well. Check on the Underarmor website or ****'s Sporting goods (LOL the website starred me! D.i.c.k.'s Sporting Goods)

Sit with your legs straight out in front of you, toes pointed straight up. Have a friend sit by your feet and pull toes gently to make them point while you resist. Do 3 x ten repetitions, once or twice during the day and be sure to ice. DO NOT over strain! This is a delicate resistance trick!

What an amazing journey!

I have always love psychological thrillers. The first movie I saw that was great was Wait Until Dark, with Audrey Hepburn. I then watched all of the old Alfred Hitchcock films, The Birds, Rear Window, The Bates Motel... Yummy creepiness! The Amityville Horror... I couldn't look out a window for a week for fear of seeing…

What a proud moment for you. I am a total weeper and I have tears in my eyes for you! Congratulations!

Did you know that if you take your favorite regular yogurt and filter it using a coffee filter placed in a strainer for an hour or so, you make Greek yogurt? This doesn't work on the flavored yogurts, but if you buy the plain and then sweeten with stevia flavors, or just add your favorite jelly or honey, it tastes great!

You can certainly add meas a friend if you like. I'm in the Chicago area.

I am still in the "before" stage, but improving. I found that a brisk loofa followed by cocoa butter cream really helps encourage the skin to rejuvenate itself. It is a slow process, but I do see slow results.
-
If there was a diet, I've tried it! Keeping a sense of humor on any journey is essential! Know the poem, the Road less traveled...? Well, I not only took the road, but I doubled back, tried the other road, and tried to blaze a trail! I kept ending back at the same darn fork...and it was in my hand! Feel free to add me as a…

I have used a low carb diet to break thought a plateau, and I found that if I minimize combining fat and carbs in the same meal, that helps as well. Something about combining them in the same meal is a trigger for me. The important thing to learn is how YOUR body reacts to carbs and fats.

I will tell a little story about my husband because it seems the place to do so. My husband and I have been married for 25 years and he has seen me at my best and worst. one of the things I noticed was when I did something, he would automatically do it as well. For example, when I quit smoking, he did so as well. When I…

To help with sweaty feet and odor, buy a Thai Deodorant Crystal and use it on your feet everyday.

I make my own. MUCH cheaper!

I bought a cheap exercise ball and when I am at home in front of the computer or TV, I sit on it and pulse, squeeze, roll my hips, etc. It has really helped with toning the area. I can suddenly walk without my inner thighs rubbing together, and my buttocks have a nicer shape (not so flat).

FYI: I had some pretty bad stretch marks and they have reduced with a Loofa scrub and Vitamin E oil applied to the scars 2-3 x daily. It takes a while, and they never really go away completely, but they did reduce. Emphasis on it takes time: At lease 6-12 months to see results depending on your age. Works on Breast stretch…

I am wondering if you were once at your current weight a while ago? Let me explain: As I was gaining weight, it was over a period of years. At one point I was at 150-155 for a while before gaining again. Then I was 190ish for a while then I gained again. When I took off the weight, I noticed that the places where I stalled…

Fat will come of where it wants to. I have been very lucky in that my fat seems to be coming off all over, so I still look "even." I have a medium frame and was an early developer. My bra size went from a 42DD to currently 38C. I have always have been on the large size. Like a previous poster, because of the weight loss, I…
