The poster that said medium or heavy cream is actually right. They've done a study that basically says using real cream in coffee ultimately saves you calories because you become more satiated ( full) for longer, and ultimately consume fewer calories. That's why I always use full fat milk too, not to mention there are…

Apple watch shows calories that you've actually burned, but doesn't count calories that you would have burned anyway like other trackers....i.e. if you walk for an hour , most trackers count the calories you burned, let's just say 200, plus they add the calories you would have burned anyway, say another 100, and call it…

Trader Joe's makes a great Gluten Free Frozen Toaster Waffle....I live on those....Sometimes I add a little peanut butter or honey if it's before a workout....great pre workout meal for me :)

I'm really feeling the love, thanks so much everyone!!! I'm so happy to have made so many new friends too! We all have challenges and learn to adapt. I've recently gotten a diagnosis of a neurological disorder that is going to cause me to have to reduce the number of gym workouts I'm going to be able to do....so I will…

I started out simple....I swapped a protein shake for dinner....Gold Standard Whey with milk. I was 340lbs or so when I started that and just that change got me to about 300lbs.....then I altered breakfast a bit....but left lunch as an eat what you want meal....but as you start to progress you realize each change makes a…

I'd still like to lean out a bit....I've largely avoided loose skin issues, but still have a bit of 'sway ' in the belly area I'd like to take care of as well as I can. Other than that just staying healthy and continuing to work out...not so much to build more muscle but to maintain what I've got.....maybe work my glutes…

I'll work on a smiling pic just for you :)

I've lost 140 lbs..I've gone from 335 to 194..though I"ve done it slowly so I've been fortunate with the skin. I will say that the things that have helped me were LOTS of moisturizing...stay hydrated....exfoliate and use a skin brush....all of this helps the skin to continue to rejuvenate and stay healthy, and most…

Cut out all carbs for about 2 days, you'll be going like a fountain.

Yes, did a pack of steroids but that was almost 2 months ago, and lost the weight i'd gained from that pretty quickly fortunately. The Epidurals are steroid injections essentially too but haven't read about them causing weight gain, especially since it's a single injection ( though it's the 3rd in 5 weeks). I've just…

I topped out at 335 lbs. I had trouble walking as my feet hurt, not to mention I was just in terrible shape all around. Every diet I tried failed. Finally I just decided to do things the way I thought I could, and ignore everyone else and their advice, no matter how good I'm sure it was. The First thing I did was not tell…

I'm sure you've done this, but really it boils down to cutting out as much sugar as possible, and increase your cardio if possible. I know people that have done the paleo diet to finish off and it worked well for them.

I use the Mio Alpha ...it's the only HRM that doesn't require a chest strap..simply a watch on your wrist... and I love it.. I pair it with Digifit and it automatically exports workout data into my fitness pal.

I'm a male.. 5'9 about 212lbs....my HRM clocked me in at 436 calories after 1 hour and 2 minutes...this was beginning yoga..my 1st attempt. Looking forward to continuing on with it too!

I did it tonight....burned a little fewer calories, but less of a difference than I expected....kept it right around 140 plus or minus 2 or 3 beats.....kept a constant pace but altered the resistance and incline on the elliptical to change the heart rate around as I went. I guess I'll try it for a few weeks to see how it…
