Just reached goal weight today. In some ways I wonder if too much? But this is weight I've been at before. Happy with my size (some 2s, 4s, 6s(from 10 years ago!)). Want to change composition a bit more. I'm at 28% body fat, down from 33.5. Not bad for a 51-year-old woman!

Healthy attitude! Same happens to me, but I'd much rather where pretty, smaller clothes!

Date The Rock, just watch the model. Sooo, I like both!

Check your level of vitamin D. I'm better if I exercise regularly & really put myself into it, not just go through the motions; make sure I take 1000 to 2000 iu Vitamin D & 1000 mg B-12; and eat clean - ie stay away from processed foods. Stay away from meds if you can. Was put on a light dose, but absolutely hated it!!!!…

First let me congratulate you on the weight loss! You look great! And yea, the wheels begin to turn, what can I have? But you know what? if you're not going out very often and choose wisely when you do there's no need to panic (stick to lean meats, skip the appetizer, try a broth soup, green salad w/dressing on the side &…

My advice is to find a new doctor. Period. At 750 calories, your body won't be getting enough nutrition to be healthy. You have been losing weight restricting your calories to 1200 & exercising so you are obviously doing something right! You're in the normal range for blood sugar, so I would not worry. If you're concerned…

We're going to Hawaii this year . . . have never been during wintertime & haven't been there since I was a kid. If you want to go for "traditional" Christmas, you have to go to Germany. Weather may be a bit cold, but the gluhwein makes up for it!

Congrats!!!! Remember what you feel like today, how your clothes fit, how you are mentally, what you look like in the mirror, etc. Don't worry about the calorie change, Do what you enjoy and follow the eating patterns you have established and you will be fine. Good luck!

Good question. I'm not a nutritionist or dietitian or doctor, but whenever you inquire how much water to drink, it's typically 8 glasses per day. Ok so now my rationale . . . . (1) If you drink water before you eat, it will trick your stomach into thinking it's fuller than what it is, hence, curbs your appetite. (2) It…

Have you tried chewing sugar free gum while your cooking? Especially a mint flavored one. Usually the taste of something else while chewing a mint gum is awful, the mint makes your mouth feel clean & the act of chewing gum occupies your need to chew. Another trick is try brushing your teeth before you start cooking. Most…

I LOVE celery & peanut butter or apples & peanut butter. You get the protein which helps fill you up & the crunch at the same time. Air-popped popcorn is good as are pistachios. For something sweet, try South Beach diet chocolate covered sunflower seeds. Enjoy!

Honestly I don't think that's a good number. What makes up those calories is really more important. I lost the weight I wanted on the South Beach Diet, which teaches you more about glycemic index of food. Proteins will fill you up more & last longer than carbs. Eat more often & smaller meals. I read the reply from the one…
