When you actually eat your food slow because you know, once your are finished that is it for the day.

I recommend cranking up the intensity. I am working on my last 5-10 lbs as well. I have added two high intensity workouts per week.

Congratulations!!! Good job and I completely agree about focusing achieving fitness goals!

I plateaued for about a month. I changed my workout routine by adding more high intensity workouts and increased my caloric intake. I am at about 1lb per week. In your case you can't exercise, so I would agree with the previous post, focus on eating healthy DO NOT STARVE yourself. The fact that you lost 40 lbs shows you…

Each time I would say something sarcastic, my mom would say "Don't let your mouth right a check that your a$@ can't cash" I knew it was time for me to shut up when she said this.

This may sound cliche, but take it one day at a time. You will have some good days and some bad days. The trick is to not have too many bad days. Try to get some friends to use the program with you. I have found that my friends help to motivate me to exercise and eat better. Do not focus on the scale, focus on how your…

I would not recommend you get down to 90lbs. 113lbs at 5'3" is small enough. The first thing to do is look at your diet. Are you eating a lot of fatty foods? I would recommend you try doing hills on the treadmill. Also try the stair climber. Another great leg exercise is lunges. Lastly, not all of us can have those nice…

Not sure about insanity, but try jump roping. I know folks who hate to run and jumping rope keeps their endurance and cardio up.

I think it really depends on your fitness level and what you plan to do for your cardio and weight session. Sometimes I run first, then do a 20-30 minute weight session. On these days I will not do legs. Other times I start in the gym then finish with cardio. However after I do a weight lifting session I usually will not…

I know you guys are going to disagree with me, but I think it could be possible; however, this person would have to be in insane shape. On one of my high intensity workout days I do a hill interval workout. I toggle between 3.5 and 6.0 with the incline at 10 and go up to 15. I do 3.5 for 2 minutes then 6.0 for 3 minutes…

I do not know your workout routine, but maybe you should add a high intensity work out 1 or 2 times per week. When I say high intensity I am referring to you working out at 80-90% of your maximum heart rate. Of course you are not exercising at the high intensity level the entire workout. Start with a 5 min warm up (you…
