Put your info in the calc and set it to lose one pound per week or two pounds per week or 1.5 pounds per week. I'd set it at 1 pound per week at first until you get used to eating at a certain calorie intake. Then you can increase your pound loss per week. And exercise.. at first I didn't exercise but I lost anyway cause I…

Hey.. those pink dumbells! There ain't nothin wrong with havin color in your life! Other than that, you're rockin it! :heart:

25 pounds = an average 2 year old

5 hours of walking? 600 calories? Yes!!! And like Green says, you can cross check it.

I'm working for a Fall wedding... in Florida... when the last time I Was there I weighed almost 200 pounds less than I do now... so totally tryin to work it. You can do ten pounds!! I lost 16 in 6 weeks in March/April and then 7 in May. And I wasn't exercising for the majority. I'd def suggest some working with weights. I…

You can see my ticker says I have a billion and two pounds to lose. Add me!! I'm on all the time :)

Congratulations! :laugh:

my aunt wanted to give me a nickname that was special, that no one uses... so she made up bree (also spelled bri) and so now everyone calls me that but she made it for me. And I'm a military brat thus having lived a gypsy life--always moving, always travelling.

You've lost 57 pounds. Why quit?

Every human body is different. If they weren't there would be no DNA, no fingerprints, etc etc You don't like breakfast, you can't eat it, so don't. Sometimes the last thing i want is breakfast, sometimes it is the first.

I'm 31 and working it!

^^^^^ This!

I didn't do all that at once.... but I did quit smoking and I didn't gain weight. I did use an e-cigarette for the first 3 months, after I realized my accomplishment and was proud and found all the positives, I found that the ecig was annoying to keep up with, charging, juicing, etc etc. So I quit that too. I felt that I…

I was thinking about doing that.... Kind of like a reminder that the day before you 'failed' instead of forgetting Personally, I try to find an exercise to do that will cancel it out--usually cleaning will work. But to prevent all that I'm trying to top my calorie intake at 2000 regardless of net. Thanks for the tip!! Like…

Yes ma'am! I eat big macs (minus the top bun and one meat for less calories), corn dogs, hot dogs (but I do eat Hebrew National 97% fat free), pizza, etc but I do try to incorporate healthier foods because I know that they cost less calories and I can eat more and its just healthier. But I certainly dont beat myself up for…

Me, too! I think the natural response would be if you're having NATURAL sugar--fruits, yogurt, milk, etc then its fine to go over. IF you're having refined sugar--white sugar, soda, fruit snacks (jelly candy type), and other severely processed foods then its fine. Pretty much if it wasn't manmade then go for it--manmade…

^^^ This! It is said that people tend to weigh more at night due to eating and water and etc etc. Sometimes though you can bloat up in the night and be swollen in the morning (happens to me). I do it in the morning anyway, though, on Fridays.. sometimes if I do really good on the weekend I want to weight myself on Monday,…

There should be a scoop inside.. I get herbalife and I always find the scoop right in the middle about halfway down! I keep a scoop from a previous container until I can find it. Maybe turn it upside down and shake??? I know I got the kids Herbalife and it said to use 2 tablespoons for theirs... it seemed to be about the…

Min 2500 up to probably 4000.. About 3000 average, I'd guess. More when I Was drinking cokes, def. Now I hit 2000 MAX with exercise and try to hover between 1500-1600. I told myself I should not eat more calories than the average man--there has to be a limit!!! And I do quite well now! :)) I still have my 1000 calorie…

This sounds reasonable to me but still.... My supervisor at my health club says at's to me that's bull and borderline lies and I tell him where to shove it and then I don't do what he tells me to do because its unhealthy. There's days when I want to report him but he's 22 and a kid. And a big fat idiot. So I don't let it…

I don't know what the gastric sleeve is but my mother had gastric bypass, I'll never have surgery to lose weight, life is to be enjoyed so much more than that, I believe.

I don't know if they should, I think if you're hungry then yes you should but I don't believe in eating back calories, every body is different so it needs different nutrients and the like. If you're worried about raising your glucose I'd suggest something high in fiber as the fiber helps with the levels. Everybody grows…

Say your husband brings you a bigmac--worst thing ever! Eat the bottom two breads and remove one meat (I say the bottom two because its has the best sauce and cheese which of course equals more calories but more yum) eat small fries or half of the fries. Feed the rest to your dog or outside someplace for the stray animals…

I use the single koolaid/crystal light type powders. It kind of adds a dreamscicle effect. Like orange for example--orange dreamscile. The ones I have (Kroger light) are only 5 calories per stick. Fruit is awesome but it does have that fruit seed sadness at the bottom and sometimes the fruit can be sour--a dash of…

I eat it. I love big macs, I take off the top bun and meat and flip over the middle bun with a small fries, even with a medium coke (with ice) it counts in about the same as a whopper and just a little over the actual/original big mac by itself. I also eat kid meals. Really, I don't care who hates me and actually I got in…

Wow I just reread that and realized it sounded rude. I meant that I buy the same type of dresses that have the pleats I guess they're called and I love it cause when I shrink the pleats make a more pleated look so they're great large or tiny as long as the shoulders fit then you can still wear the dress! And I love flowy…

Wow your belly is shrunk! That is a beautiful dress your friend has good tastes and you'll look beautiful even if you shrink and keep the same size! congrats, beautiful! :)
