I am 43, with the same problem. FR Sent :)

Del Taco's regular crunchy beef tacos are only 130 calories each :)

look on Sandy's Kitchen under the Medifast tab. There are tons on there, and they are delicious! http://www.sandyskitchenadventures.com/p/medifast-recipes-only.html

I chose 154.9 because it is the high end of my BMI. If I reach that goal, and all my other tests come back good, I get $100 from the state for being healthy :)

Good luck to you. NEVER GIVE UP!

I too am a wine lover, and the calories really do add up fast. I will hit the cardio a little harder on the weekends to make up some of the calories if I know I am going to have more than one glass (which is usually always :)) Or you can try Vodka shots, or Vodka in a low calorie mixer like Crystal Light? I love Vodka in…

Try pre-logging. If you know what you are having for dinner, work your other calories around it. I always pre-log so I have a pretty good idea of where I need to add, or take away to make the calories and the macros fit. Maybe come up with a weekly meal plan so that you know what you are having for dinner each night???

I am 5'6" and 173. You can add me if you like. I am kicking butt and taking names ;)

I can safely say, the the sand has definitely shifted to the bottom of this hourglass o.0

Has worked for me 35 lbs down. I am a visual learner, so when I see red, I know that I need to focus. Green is good!!! Plus, it helps me track the amount of calories I need to eat to be in a healthy deficit!

I go all year round. I go early in the morning to beat the gym traffic, and so that after work in the summer months, I can sit on a floatie in the pool with an ice cold beverage in my hand, and not worry about my workout.

I have experienced that myself. I know if I don't drink enough water the weight won't budge because my body holds on to every drop of water it can. I personally drink an ounce of water for every pound I weigh. At first it's really hard, but then your body starts to crave it and it becomes easier to drink that much. Most…

43 here. Lost 25 pounds, need to lose 30 more. I am always down for new friends :)

It is a struggle, but once the routine is set..easy breezy! I started at 205, down to 178. I have a hard goal to drop another 20 before my vacation in June. I can do it and so can you!

Cut your portion in half. Log it as good as you can. Up your workouts over the next few days. I have to think of calorie intake in a weekly sense on not a daily tally. There are days that I will go over on calories, I just adjust my calories in/out over the next few days to make up for it. I get a little more added…

Thank you ladies, I appreciate all the positive feedback from you. I have been doing alternatives for the lunges. It seems the squats and step ups don't aggravate my knees like the lunges do. I have cut them out of my workout for the time being, and my knees seem to feel a TON better. I might try them again in a few weeks…

I use the mirror for squats and deadlifts. It seems that doesn't bother my knees so much, neither does the step ups, Most of the irritation comes from lunges. The pain almost feels like really sore muscles under the knee cap? If that makes any sense. No swelling or constant pain, just when I bend with most of my weight on…

I will try the stretching thing, I didnt even think about that. I think if it were only 1 knee I would be more concerned, but where it is both, I am hoping it is like you said and just tight muscles.

Welcome girlie, although I am not a lesbian, and am happily taken, I would love to join you on this journey. I hid behind my "baby phat" for 16 years (no longer baby fat at this stage ;) ) I love Zumba, but haven't done it in a few years. I am an avid gym goer, and know a thing or two about lifting. Feel free to add me if…

35 pounds here!

http://www.sandyskitchenadventures.com has quite a few low cal and low carb options. She has a Cauliflower crust pizza, but you can use tortillas or pitas like mentioned above. If you want something a little smaller, I have made them out of English muffins. They were great!
