If you are a lifetime member of ww you know what you need to do to get rid of 7lbs. So I would say burn more calories. Get outside and move more. You already know how and what to eat. So as you say "I have been Lazy" easy to fix. Meetup with someone to workout or hike or bike whatever get off the couch. You got this. Patsy…

I had to go to low carb to get rid of my hunger. My goal for carbs are try not to go over 50 a day. Working for me. Drink lots of water. Good luck.

Tomorrow is Father's Day and I really miss my dad. I wish I had more time with him. My kids came late to us (DH) So as he got older I was so busy with my own. I do not remember just sitting enough to hear his stories. Now my kids are grown and I have time but he is already gone. The greatest generation has almost all gone.…

I used a trainer to help me restart the gym. 22yrs I used kids play grounds and long runs to workout. My kids are grown now so thee is more money and time for the gym. My trainer was $25 a half hour. Committed for 3 months for one weekly session. My trainer was not a dietitian so my meal plan I found online. I am currently…

Christa sorry you are suffering with PF. I know the shots work. I have had them myself 3x. I also went to a podiatrist and have inserts for my running shoes. Check youtube there is an athlete gold medalist who has a deep water running program that helps during the healing time you are off. If you have access to a pool.…

Yes this. I am a foodie. I think about food and plan meals. For people who live with a mind set on food it is really hard work to drive by all the easy drive troughs. It takes work everyday to plan to live healthy. No short cuts. Health is you first wealth so work on it.

My husband is using low carb and running and lifting. We use meal replacement our choice is Muscle Milk no sugar added. plus preparation preparation.... eat real food. Good cuts of meats fish and wild game if you can. high fiber carbs. Green giant has the steam-ables which help a lot when time is short. Monitor you sugar…

SOOO TRUE!! No sort cuts friend.

Trust me I am married 31 yrs when I look back at the young me I am like wow not bad. lol If you hate to exercise then find what you do like. Hike, bike, swim, tour your city. Keep moving it does not have to be a…

Low calories are hard to satisfy for sure. For me I eat low carbs. Carbs affect me like a drug when I eat them I get sleepy and then want to eat a lot more. So I would say from my experience eat low carbs, drink your 8 glasses of water and keep moving and keep busy. I also drink 3 cups of coffee with creamer. TV and the…

Ann you are the same age as my son. You have a health issue which needs to be the most important issue you take care of. Your weight set it aside your whole life is in front of you. Focus on completing your education and practice healthy habits. The weight will fall away when you have your mind on taking care of you.…

I add benifiber in coffee. Also there is a gummie sugar free fiber at Sams. My kids like them.

Yes. This is his value BB not running. Thanks for the response. I will look for a new fitness trainer.

I think you should post over in the fitness feed. There are a lot of lifters and trainers on there who can answer this great question. I wonder the same, To me I see only the high calories in the Whey protein so I am skeptic.

Really helpful article. Thanks for the post.

I am a compulsive eater and am working to change this deadly habit. For me night time is really about one watching TV and the habit to eat in front of it. So I do not eat while watching tv. If i need a snack due to hunger and not habit I sit in the kitchen relax and eat a snack. Two bored TV mostly sucks, love to read but…
