You will find the more you walk, the easier it becomes. But don't overdue it. Because you will have aches and pains, but if you keep it up you will be fine. Limit yourself to 1200 calories a day and get 80 grams of protein. Meijers sells a protein powder for about $15 that will last about a month and will give you 35…

You are doing great. yes start walking to warm up your legs and then jog till you are tired, then walk again then jog and keep it up. It won't be long till you realize that you are jogging a lot more than walking. Don't overdue it though and get burned out. Like they say it isn't a sprint in a long marathon. My sister in…

I would guess it all in personal choice. I bought the whey chocolate and mixit with skim milk and I like it. I have to replenish it soon and next time I am going to buy the vanilla. I like whey because it gives me 38 grams and I want to get 80 grams of protein a day for fat . Basil

NO!!! If you only want to lose for a couple of months yes, If you want to lose weight and keep it off then you have to do it by changing your eating habits!!! Basil

Hi, You haven't filled out your profile so we don't know how much weight you are trying to lose. At 20 yrs old I would say, forget the fries, if you eat them. Fast foods are bad. Sweets are bad. Start counting your calories and get physically active. Fasting does NOT work!! your body adjust to it. If you were 70 insteadof…

One of my son's teams motto was " IF IT IS TO BE!! ITS UP TO ME"!! I think this applies to you. You are overweight because you ate too much and did too little!. I don't mean to be mean, but we can try to motivate you, but if you don't alter your eating habits, it won't happen. You have to eat less sugar, white bread,…

Hi All runners sweat!!!! I carry a wash cloth in the waist of my shorts and use that to wipe. If your sweating you are working!!! Keep up the great work!!!

I very rarely go over 1200 and usually I am under!! Basil

The Adtkins diet is a low carb diet. I did it for a while and lost 15 lbs in 3 weeks, however when you go off of it ,yes you gain it all back. To be serious about losing weight, ice cream, cookies and chips are not part of the program. You just have to decide how quickly you want to lose it. If you don't have a serious…

Ok a couple of things first! 1> That is one fat *kitten* tomatto, 2. My guess is that you already look good naked!!! How long have you been running? If you just started not long ago, start by walking until you are loosened up then jog until you are tired, then walk again and repeat the process. It won't be long and you…

Great and resonable goals!! You can do it!! Good luck!!!! Basil

I started the end of this April at about 232lbs. I weight in every Monday after my run and I wear the same clothes and flip flops to keep eveything equal. This past Monday the 23rd I weighed 210. I rewarded myself with a small thin crust Marco pizzx with peperoni and sausage. I'm hoping to be at about 206 tomorrow. I want…

Not hungry ,don't eat I say!!! Basil

GREAT JOB!!! YOU HAVE A NEW BODY!!!! Basil

Hi, 2 things, how often do you weigh yourself? and also, the only way you lose is to eat less calories and excercize more. Another big tip I receives from my sister in law who is short and was really heavy, went on a program at the hospital where she works. They put her on 1200 calories a day and 80 grams of protein each…

SORRY, I didn't see the "help", but what do you need help with? Add me to your friend list and I will be glad to help in any way I can!!! Basil

Dani, I never eat back my exercize calories! If your aren't hungry dont eat!!!

Ret for a day, eventually when your body catches up to the routine ,the soreness will ease. When you are feeling too comfortable you now know you have to extend your self again. Thats what conditioning is all about!! Basil

Make sure you drink lots of water before you run!!! Basil

I suggest walking to warm up and then run and when you start to get tired, walk again and when you have rested some, run again and keep going back and forth. You will see in just a few days or weeks, you are running more and walking less. You will be up to 3 miles in no time! Basil

LOOKING REALLY GREAT!!!!! Basil

Unless you can do it with self discipline it is not going to work. If you really want to lose weight, put that desire ahead of eating too much!! Basil

I never used to like it, but now to get my daily grams of protein I've learned to like it. I put salt and pepper, with the accent on pepper. I think I will try some fruit next time

What worked good for me was to start the day out by walking untill you feel warmed up, then jog slowly,. when you get tired go back to walking, then bag to slow jogging. Do this as long as you feel you are tired. After you have done this for several days, you will notice you are running more than you are walkiing. It may…

My sister in law who works at a hospital had about 85 lbs to lose and they put her on 1200 cal. a day and 80 grams of protein . They said the protein helps get rid of the fat!! Basil

Hi Cupcake, My sister in law is about your height but weighedmore.She works at a hospital and went to their weight program. She is on 1200 calories a day and they told her to be sure and get 80 grams of protien a day. She has lost 75 lbs in 5 months. meijers sells a protein powder that you can mix with anything, I use skim…

The nice thing about your size is that results will show quickly. You are right, it has to be a life changing thing. You have to keep accurate count of your calories. Probably at 1200 per day. My sister in law was short and heavy and works at a hospital. They put her on 1200 calories and 80 grams of protein eack day. You…

Kerry, it's no secret, the only way to lose is to increase your activity and decrease your calories. Keep acurate count of your calories and increas your protein intake to about 50. Protein helps to get rid of fat! It sure seems as if you are working out enough. Good luck, Basil

No matter what the scale says, you are looking terrific!!! Basil

Hey you are HOT!! If you got there not caring ( We don't believe you don't care ) Whatever you are doing is working!!! Basil
