Ramadan is half way over and I haven't gained any weight or lost any weight. Trying to eat healthy but watching portion sizes. I do miss my pool time and working out.

i swim every other day and wearing a swim cap really helps. I use Aveda Sun Care Hair and Body Cleanser that says it removes chlorine, salt and product build-up. If you use conditioner or hair oil before you swim it helps too

great post!

Ramadan Kareem everyone. I will be trying to keep up with protein (eggs) in sahoor time and eating lentils and other good carbs and protein for Iftaar time.. I have been working out so hard and it would be a shame to lose all the hard work. I am not looking for losing any weight but I don't want to gain it all back with…

I hear you In the last 4 years I have been on every crazy diet that limits type of foods I just eat healthy that includes fruits vegetables grains nuts And pizza and ice cream. 9in moderation) I have lost 13 pounds which is more than what I have lost with crazy diets over years. Here's to keeping it up

wow. keep it up girl

I am. I know I lose a few pounds by the end of the month but my body goes through a lot with lack of water and long days and minimal exercise. I also lose muscle. I would love to see options as to how we can burn more fat and keep our muscle tone during ramadan.

great goal. It makes working out more fun.

awesome job.

Question: what do you eat to fill up the calories? I am not hungry and I am sick of eating vegetables which barely have any calories. When someone says up your calories - I want to do that with ice cream. :) Can someone suggest some fat burning snacks and options. Thanks

cook on Sunday. And have healthy meals ready like chicken fish, fruit that is already cut up, cool water drinks. Also I keep apples and nuts in the car so i am not famished by the time I get home

please share how you did it. You look fantastic

eat more fiber prunes, aloe vera help I am in the same boat. I am eating more often, drinking more water, taking aloe vera, taking a green tea supplement.

congrats!

absolutely. I swim 4 days a week in the summers and I see a dramatic difference. To get the most out of your swim 1. Do intervals.Sprint swim one lap and slow down the next. 2. Vary your strokes to make sure you get some variety. 3. instead of adding running - add strength training instead. It will make more of a difference

my 6 year daughter is gluten free as well. We do a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables, lentils, chilli, soups, chicken nuggets made with rice flour, meatballs with gluten free pasta.

Hi Karen. With kids I know it's easy to lose yourself but it is possible to find yourself again. Ignore people. Good luck. I was 180 after the birth of my 2nd child and I have kept at 164 for the last two years. Now at 157 and trying to get to 151. I concentrate taking 10 pounds at a time to help me ease through the…

Things that work for me as a sugar fix 1. watermelon 2. mangos 3. hershey kisses / baking morsels 4. cold coffee 5. Popsicles or Italian ice

i am newbie - how do you open your food diary. I would love some constructive criticism

Thanks everyone for the great advice everyone. I do exercise really hard. I am 34 and I also have PCOS so weight loss has never been easy. I am going to up my calories to see if that makes the difference.
