  • Welcome! You have come to the right place. It's hard for me to stay focused on tracking it all but when I invest in myself I do the best. I want to loose 20 pounds but I am a lot older and believe everyone when they tell you it only gets harder over 40! IT DOES! keep with it and you will succeed. BUT, you have to change…
  • You certainly can but you don't have to! If you want to loose more quickly, don't even log your exercise and then you won't see the extra calories, etc. that are available to consume. Sometimes you just need a little extra for something special but if you only use them once in a while, it will level out perfectly. Don't…
  • We've all been there. I am stuck at 6 pounds. I gained 3 back but finally lost them again. We all have different circumstances. If I was single I would be at my prebaby weight (about 40 lbs ago), which I can no longer use as an excuse since my girls are 9/12 now. So much running them around and my darn husband can eat…
  • Fantastic!! I couldn't do that am I am perfectly healthy (so far). Keep up the good work and DO CELEBRATE!!!!!
  • You can tone up all that skin with the right exercise. Believe me, the hardest place to shed weight is in your tata's! I had to have a reduction to get rid of mine! There is no exercise that will make them smaller so don't worry about that for a minute!

Try to exercise for 10 extra minutes if you are doing cardio and burn some extra calories. You can still satisfy your craving, you just have to work with…
  • I drink a HL protein shake every morning and love it. It starts my day off great with lots of energy. I add 2 oz of greek yogurt, 1/2 cup of fresh fruit (or frozen) and a dash of vanilla. I use the vanilla powder but they have tons of flavors. I have lost 7 pounds in 3 weeks. Also drink all my water and always over exceed…

  • I have a protein shake every morning (Herbalife). I use Vanilla but there are so many flavors. I use 1 Cup 1% milk, 2 oz of greek yogurt (any flavor), I cup fresh fruit whenever possible, or frozen if not, a splash of vanilla extract and 6 ice cubes. It's delicious and you can change it up with the flavors of yogurt or…
  • Yes, you can override the automatically calculated counts. You have to go to Food/Settings/Goals and then you can change the setings to what your personal goals are. I did this to include Fiber counts on my diary and also increase my protein goals for the day based on what my nutritionist told me. If you want to get more…
