If the rest of your body was toned and hot would you mind not having ginormous boobs? I wouldn't! I have a hard time thinking you'd lose ALL of your boobs by losing weight. Breasts are mostly fat, however, so I wouldn't be so sure.. I've never lost cup size when losing weight... but I don't gain weight in my boobs either…

Don't try to climb mount kilamanjaro when you're out of shape... Take it LITERALLY one step at a time. I've been out of shape and I've been in shape and now I'm out of shape trying to get BACK into shape. Nothing is as important as NOT scaring yourself off of the track that you're on to health... DON'T overdo yourself.…

Wow,you look really great! How wonderful for you that you finally found what works! My theory is that weight loss truly is a journey, you learn and sometimes you don't always win but if you keep at it you find ways to work around obstacles! You kept going and have awesome results because of it... So appreciate you sharing…

Thanks so much. It's really great that you're offering up your knowledge and "street smarts" for those of us who have never tried to lose weight in this type of method. Before I just kept away from fatty foods and exercised alot (in my early 20's). I've been dormant and taking a different approach after 5 years of no large…

I had this exact question! I wasn't sure if I was doing anything right... I put mine to lose 2 lbs per week and am trying to keep steady between 1200 - 1300 calories a day I've also started walking between 30-60 minutes a day to ease myself back into exercise (after a long period of not lol) .. but I'm tryin not to "starve…

Likely you are gaining MUSCLE from your work outs, Muscle is heavier than fat... it takes a while for the shift from gaining muscle to have it start burning your fat off... the scales really suck when you start gaining muscle because it is really frustrating to start "gaining" weight. How about your measurements? Are they…

You are overweight by 19.9 kilograms (43.8 pounds) You need to exercise at least 30 minutes every day. Minimum caloric requirements: 1955 Calories per day Limit your food intake to 1661 calories per day. to lose 2.2 pounds per month. Your diet should contain at least 61 grams of protein per day. So is 1200 calories a good…

I think it really depends on your size and weight and exercise habits. You can't be working off all your calories and then have nothing for your muscles and body to run on... So, if you're exercising alot you need to eat more to keep your body functioning at full capacity. You don't want to malnutrition yourself, also, so…

Anything worth having won't just be given to you on a silver platter, it's worth working for. Not everyone enjoys exercise because it's "easy" for them, I enjoy exercise for what it brings to me...possibilities. It's pain with a purpose. (kinda like having a baby) you know you're getting something out of it. I'm kinda…

Yes, muscle does burn fat... which is why it's always a bonus to add exercise to a diet routine :) I am SO not worried about looking muscular! I can't WAIT to have my old guns back...and my amazing butt and thighs! I love muscles... looking strong on the outside is just the icing on the cake of losing weight and getting a…

Good food encourage muscle growth, for one. And muscle weighs more than fat. For other reasons, maybe your body was reacting to you eating more calories and speeding up your metabolism? Keep in mind it isn't a short term thing... losing weight should only be half of the goal, being healthy is the other half... although…

And ice cream may not be heath food, but it is certainly healthy to allow yourself some pleasure in life sometimes. And if you need a ltitle ice cream at 11 pm, it's healthier than alot of things. And perfectly acceptable, especially if it isn't a habit. :)

I hope you start sticking up for yourself more... comments like that wouldn't be accepted very nicely from me. Even if ignoring them is the more "adult" thing to do, I feel I deserve to stand up for myself. Defend yourself! It doesn't matter if you eat a chocolate here or an ice cream there, it's none of their business.…

Yes! I love it. I do "pre-plan" my meals sometimes for the next day, that way I know what I can eat to stay within my goals. It's very motivatng to see what I'll weigh if I keep on track (without exercise, even). I am addicted to it, so I completely understand. It really helps me keep motivated even when I want to "break"…
