How aout 76!! I just got finished running 4 miles!!

If you have been running for awhile, you should try running everyday, maybe you can walk some and then run some and just alternate until eventually you are running everyday! Basil

Yes running is contagious. I ran all last week except Saturday. It was over 100 all week and I tried to run about 10:30am . I was tied up Saturday until 1:00 or so and too hot so I took off. I was bummed all evening. Today is Sunday, I have to go to Church at 10:30 but I will be out about noon. Your body just wants to run…

Hi Critter, Are you just starting? Have you lost at all? Just realize, you have to increase your activity and decease the total calories that you eat. You will find if you get a notebook and write everything down that you eat everyday and be accurate with the calories. That means no chip, no cookies no donuts or thing like…

I do it religiously every Monday at the YMCA

I just bought some Whey, the chocolate. I mix it with skim milk. It taste fine. I have only had it 2 days, I'm hoping it works well. My sister in law is a nurse and she is on a program at her hospital. They have to have 80 grams of protien a day and stay under 1300 calories! She has lost 75 lbs in about 5 months. She…

I suddenly realized that I don't overeat but I was eating the junk food, so I realized I wanted to lose the weight more that I wanted the junk food. I started by writing everything I eat all day long and soon I wasn't craving any of it!!

Looking good, keep up the good work!!!

GREAT WORK NADIA!!! The only way you can improve is by being honest with yourself! Keep up the GREAT work and don't get discouraged. Basil

Once you cheat, it becomes easier and easier to cheat again and soon the program is out the window!! Basil

I agree with you Lauren, it has to be a lfestyle change. Counting calories everyday and exercising. Basil

i think cleaveage was made to be shown. Its like the girl that talked about pics with bra and panties! Dah! whats bad about that!!!

I don't consider that I am on a diet! I consider it a life changing! I'm tracking everything i eat. I stay away from my downfall, " sweets ". I am very disciplined except when it comes to cookies, ice cream, etc. So I don't have them in my house! I live alone so it is easy for me!

Try Adtkins diet.com. If you but the book (paperback) It gets yo to start the 1st 2 weeks on 25 carbs or less for the 2 week introductory period. Youb have to do away with all bread, sugar fruit etc for 2 weeks, you can eat almost all the meat you want, eggs, cheese. they are high protien, almost no carbs! Basil

I agree that you should be looking beyond a 30 day shead. T o lose in a short time you have to have a cardio workout also. A regular brisk walk or a mild jog. Jogging is the quickest way to reduce, but I don't know if it is possible with the kids. If you can jog, start by walking to loosen up and the jog, when you get…

Hi Melissa, You are doing great. I don't think anyone can tell you your ideal weight. I think it is when you feel really content with where you are. Best of luck!!! Basil

If the doctor advised you to use them, then they must be right for you. The important thing is to get into an aerobic excersise NOW. I think it takes discipline to lose weight. A change of eating habits. Pills may help with weight loss, but to keep it off, it takes changing your eating habits and excersize!!

The thing that motivated me to lose weight, I was 235 6'2" was PRIDE!! I am at 210 and going to get under 200

Why do you have to lose anything. Are you where you want to be looks wise? Maybe you could be a little more athletic, but I don't know you, maybe you already are! We all have different ideas of what is perfect, but it's what is good for US in OUR OWN MINDS. Thats the important thing!!! I don't see where you have to improve…

My dad died when he was 59, my mom when she was 70. Neither was overweight, but both smoked their whole life. I am 76 and really healthy. When i was in my mid 40's in a stressfull jo and applied for life insurance, I was not even rated because of my lifestyle.

Hey do the best you can. Be happy with who you are when you go there. I know there will be people heavier than you. Look as good as you can, but be YOU! and be happy and pleasant to everyone!! Good luck!!! Basil

Dear DRD, I s this girl a "hollywood type" I mean is she really hot? is she miss perfect? I'm sure not. Why do you even bother yourself about her? Chances are whoever she is tweeting to, knows her and how she is a *****! Get on with your life and laugh at her! Like her opinion on anything matter, anyway!! Basil

I prefer diet pepsi, but I am slowing changing to Propel Zero flavored water, with no sugar, no calories!

If you aren'e motivated then you aren't motivated. I think 20 lbs will lead to 30 lbs to 40 lbs until you do get motivated. You are here get into it and you will really be happy!!! Basil

Hi Rose, I've been a runner for years. I got away from it about 7 yrs ago and started back last yr. I was about 30 lbs overweight. I suddenly realized about 3 months ago that I didn't overeat, but I ate too much that was bad! Ice cream cookies, etc. I'm not much of a french frie guy so that wasn't a problem. At the time I…

I've tried different diets over the years and this one where I track what I eat and control my calories seems to work best for me!!!!

I think you just have to think back and why you started this program. Like all of us, I'm sure you want to feel better and look better. Always remember an old motto " If it is to be it's up to me "!!! Watching what we eat and working out because we have to do it ourselves. We can't count on anyone else because if they back…

You are absolutely correct Alyana !!
