  • You will find the healthy foods (such as fresh fruits and veggies) have a lot less sodium. They now offer some lunch meats with less sodium, so you can always ask for that! :) I try to not go overboard with sodium,e specially that time of the month! Just keep drinking water though!
  • **My newest fave: You can throw in the towel, or you can use it to wipe the sweat off! Perfect! **Success is the sum of small efforts, day in and day out. So no effort is too small, dont forget it! **When you feel tired during your run, think of all the people who cant even walk and what they would give to be able to run,…
  • Ideally 125ish. I haven't really decided. I guess I'll decide when I get there. I'd love to have a flat stomach, and overall body being toned! :)
  • not TMI! Congrats! That is one of my goals to get rid of that!
  • Absolutely! Now they might not appreciate when I mention Aunt Flo visits, etc. But support is awesome regardless of their sex. Support is awesome from both sexes, because they might be able to offer different advice! I don't see the cons with it. heck some people have even fell in love with someone from here! :0
  • I think they mean drinking calories such as soda. However I drink my calories such as adult beverages, milk, oj,gatorade. Sometimes I can drink water all day and it not necessarily quench my thirst, so I go for a gatorade every couple of days. Do what your body tells you.
  • I use Mrs. Dash. It is great flavoring, yet it is low to zero everything! :) I do mine on George Foreman (make sure you spray non-stick spray first), but can do it on the grill.
  • They make these treadmills, foot climbers, etc that you do while sitting in a seat. Amazon used to have such things!
  • A lot of these came from the website www.fitnessmotivationalquotes.com that already have graphics!
  • Weused to lay on our back with our legs on the wall in a v and push your legs down as far as u can. U can always have someone else help push your legs down a little more. Stretch stretch
  • here is a couple of ideas! *YOU BE HERE GOOD EXAMPLE! Be the leader that she can follow by eating healthy! :) *If you feel like you need to say something you could always leave her a note saying you understand how hard the struggle of losing weight is but the benefits are worth it. leave this website's address on the note,…
  • if you are insecure with it, then it is not okay. It is that simple. Explain to him how you feel. Give him examples of you calling another man a pet name. He should respect you and your feelings enough to stop. Sometimes guys need an eye opener (no offense to you guys on here!!).
  • 1) Create a list of reasons why you are losing weight. Find one reason that will seriously make food do a u-turn before entering your mouth 2) A little induglence is okay, as long as it is in your calories for the day. Ie that time of the month I allow for chocolate!! :) 3) Get rid of the temptation. Replace any bad food…
  • I was addicted to Coke and Mt. Dew. I have quiet in February of last year. I had a bad headache for awhile, then it went away. I had more energy then when I drank caffeine. Start by everyday going down in how many cokes you drink. Say you have one coke, then you have to drink 2 bottles of water before you have another.…

  • 1) start small. Count your calories. Walk the block. Do some small exercises while watching tv. before you know it, you will become this person who goes a little bit further each day. 2) write a list of reasons for losing weight ( I actually posted mine, so you can read those for some ideas!) 3) find some motivational…
  • When I make a recipe or something homemade, if it is something with lots of ingredients that you use often, then I would add it to your recipes. You can put in there how many servings it makes, how much of each ingredient, etc. Then you can keep it for you to use next time you use it. I do this on crockpot recipes and that…
  • I live in Shelby Co., Indiana. We are known for our casino and horse track! :)
  • First of all, DON"T EAT IT! When you go to the store pick up something healthier! Second of all, talk to her about it! Explain to her how this makes you feel. Maybe the two of you can sit down and plan a weekly meal menu TOGETHER! You can eat a lot of what you want, just eat it differently. Instead of regular tortilla use…
  • He does Insanity, which everyone gets awesome results. So I have to think it will be awesome as well. I just bought one from my groupon email.
  • 1) You can be late due to your weight loss 2) You can be late due to stress 3) Are you taking your tests first thing in the morning? 4) Try drinking lots of green tea, for whatever reason, it makes you start! :) Hope this helps
  • After graduating high school. I went from being an active Varsity Cheerleader to nothing. I drank cokes all day every day, never any water. I ate what I wanted, when I wanted. I ate emotionally. I ate out of boredom. I ate when I wasn't even close to being hungry. I have tried fad diets, sometimes doing okay only to gain…
  • I am doing the Jillian Michaels Ripped In 30 Days. I just started it. I was sweating after just a few minutes into it (my room is ice cold too!). The next day I was sore. Can't wait to do it again today!
  • You didn't gain your weight over night, you won't lose it overnight. It is healthier and safer to slowly lose at a steady pace, then do a fad diet that will make you gain it all back. Try exercising more if you really want to lose. Adjust your settings on here so that you have a 1200 calorie limit. Be sure to not have…
  • When you eat healthy, it is a lot harder to stay under calories then you would think. Instead of pasta, I do spaghetti squash. I do berries: black, strawberry, blueberry, etc. I do grapes, bananas! lettuce is pretty much a freebie at 10 cals a cup! Switch to whole grain bread (they make some that are under 50 cals) instead…
  • Congratulations! Your hard work has paid off tremendously! :) I hope you enjoy your new you! :)
  • Some stores even have kabobs already made with chicken, peppers, onions, etc. I do a lot of turkey burger stuff, so you could try that. You could always pack stuff for a salad. Or how about like a stir-fry with chicken and vegetables? Pack nuts, raisins, dehydrated fruits etc to snack on. So that you are tempted for bad…
  • Lots of ideas for motivation! 1) Write a list, why are you doing this? 2) Write a list, what you want to do when you achieve this goal? How will you feel when your each this goal? 3) use a search engine for a weight loss image simulator, it will show your current weight and what you would look like at your goal weight! WOW…
  • Thank you everyone! I am going to try my hardest to get up in the am to do this! :) WISH ME LUCK!
