make sure you are drinking A LOT of water each day. Drinking a gallon of water over the course of the day will help flush your system.

i stay away from all white starches, Whole wheat carbs are good to keep you fuled

I make sure this doesnt happen by planning my meals out the night before. That way i can have a snack between lunch and dinner and use all my calories, carbs, fats and protein.

I drink over a gallon a day and i on occasion will get heartburn from it.

What ever carbs you eat, your bosy hold double that in water weight. So you eat a lb of cooked pasta ( which is only a handful) your body holds 2 lbs of additional water to process that.

I use this bread. Not the BEST bread i ever had but not so bad toasted.

They say it takes 4 weeks for you to notice 8 weeks for friends and family and 12 weeks for everyone else so stick it out at least 12 weeks!

Im also a fan of skinnytaste.com Easy, creative and tasty

Every sunday i make a huge breakfast scramble and seperate it into 5 containers so i can grab and go for the week. I try to change the veggies up each week but generally i do 5 whole eggs 1.5 cups egg whites 8 oz sliced mushrooms 2 cups brocolli or aspargus 4 oz goat cheese pepper to taste one whole onion One can of black…

Pick classes that are will have fun in. That way your stick to it. Most classes work different mucsle groups so you cant really go wrong. Throw a yoga in there once a week to strech out and you should be good

Ive been told that the last few reps should be hard to complete, if you are able to do your 10, 12, or 15 reps without breaking a sweat then move up on the amount of weight you are using.

Thanks guys, i borrowed the book from the library and she makes understanding your body and the way it needs food very easy. I was just wondering if anyone has tried it and any advice

I have also been recently diagnosed with an under active thyroid. I have been on medical for about 3 months now. Before the medical i would eat right and exerise and no results, now that im on it i eat right and exercise and i see results. Its not a fix all drug but it has made a different in my ability to lose weight

I personally think it weakens my attemps to stay healthy but everyone is different. I want a life style change not just a diet so i try to incorparate my favorite foods into my life, just in moderation.

I know my fish oil has calories and cholestrol, i count them everyday.

I plan on starting my 30 day shred on Monday and wanted to know if you guys are seeing results?

sounds great

Cardio helps with losing inches all over. Ive lost major inches off my hips and waist line since walking at least 3 miles 4-5 days per week.

Without being able to see your food diary i would have to guess that you arent eating enough. If you are working out twice a day you are probably burning a lot of calories and not feeding your body enough. Make sure your NET calories is what MFP suggest at the end of each day. and GOOD LUCK!

You want your NET calories to be at at least 1200 calories everyday, and yes its okay to eat those work out calories as well, you dont have to eat all of them but make sure where it says NET you are at , at least 1200

Your body probably retained some water overnight. I always drink a large cold glass of water before bed, its helps flush your system out overnight :)

I usually do a little bit of olive oil, a splash of balsamic vinegar and a squart of honey.... bake it and it comes out delish!

I have a box of instant Quaker Oatmeal packets in my desk for those days i just dont have time to make breakfast.

Im not sure if there is any truth to this but i cant see it being true. The way to lose weight is to have more calories going out then coming in, period. I know when i used to do different "diets" i would always have a cheat day, which lead to a cheat lunch on this day then a cheat dinner on that day. Its just a bad idea.…

Most people have a more scientific reason but here is my dumbed down reason that helped me understand it :) When you sign up for MFP you tell the system how much weight you need to lose, The system then gives you a goal of how many calories to eat each day. When it give you that goal it assumes that you are NOT going to…

I got mine for 6.99 at target!
