  • I travel for work, typically by car leaving Sunday and returning Friday afternoon. I stay in extended stay hotels in my regular travel locations like Homewood Suites which have a kitchenette. My sister has a trick in other hotels that typically don't offer all rooms a fridge or charge for it. She tells them she needs a…

  • Initially when on a reduced calorie diet and exercising as a woman, I notice that most females I know either don't lose much overall weight or even gain a little weight while shrinking in size before the scale starts to show lost pounds. It appears to be because they build muscle mass and then at some point the fat pounds…

  • Even when I have access to a gym, the bulk of exercise in my lifetime has been at home. Walking, push ups, triceps dips using the counter or two chairs, sit ups or crunches and other "mat" exercises are free with videos online in case you need help seeing proper form or developing a program. Pinterest is one of my favorite…

  • All protein or anything extreme that cuts out a food group is not recommended by responsible doctors looking at your longterm health versus a quick fix. A weight loss clinic is not going to look at your overall health necessarily as they are in business for one reason. This sounds like someone rehashing that old diet where…

  • Greetings! I need to lose about 120 pounds total. I didn't gain it quickly nor will it come off quickly, particularly as I am now just past 50 and female. I used to be very athletic, and years of abusing my joints in sports gradually caused more chronic pain and less activity. I was still holding at a reasonable weight…

  • To me shakes are for when I don't have time to prepare real food like on a work day morning or for when I need to eat late and don't want something that is heavy or slow to digest. Atkins brand is my first choice with decent taste, more protein and less sga than many others like Slimfast. I tried Slimfast in the plastic…
