It's hard when you're used to eating a certain amount of calories, to change that. Take these steps a little at a time, if you're used to eating 700, then for a few weeks, eat 800 then for a few weeks eat 900. You're right also in the sense that because your metabolism is a little slower right now to just throw an extra…

You can also use the soup as a base to marinade things like steak or chicken. Obviously dilute it, but if it's still too strong I suggest adding separating it for other purposes. Or make smaller batches of soup and dilute that way! HA! I love spices but too much pepper... I agree, is just too much :)

WOW!!!! That's motivation!

No. You may find in April that you want to keep these goals the same, either way your body will adjust to what you feel you need. My office is currently on it's second week of the biggest loser, and it ends April 12th. Good luck to you and I hope you are the biggest loser! HA

This is so great! When I started out I lost 22 pounds my first week, and ended up with a 59 pound loss that first month. I had a lot to lose and I also walked my bum off! But add in some exercise and you should see a few big losses. Keep up the great work! It's fabulous motivation, isn't it?

Hey there, your skin cells may be going through a major cleanse right now. This can happen for some people on a yearly basis, others at other interavals. Something that has helped me a lot is to use baby oil right after taking a shower. My skin is always dryer in the winter times (I do live in Maine) and find baby oil to…

Lots of things play into the scene here. It's extremely rare to have actual loose skin. Loose skin consists of tiny ripples not containing any fat. Then there is skin like flaps or pockets that are thin or thinner and kind of sag... These flaps or sagging areas still have fat in them, it's important to do some light toning…

Ya, we are doing great thus far! Well wishes to you and all on our journeys to weight loss and better health!!!

These look like fabulous weekly menus ladies!
