I am not a veggie lover at all. I think a good way to get them in is to add them in your scrambled eggs, make smoothies with them (I make a great broccoli pina colada smoothie and I loathe broccoli, lol) and mix them with things you like. For example I slice sweet potatoes and add green beans or mix them with seasoned…

Make sure you are drinking plenty of water. It does help.

Planning is helpful. I have salty, sugar and chocolate cravings. I make sure to have satisfying healthy snacks to help with cravings. For chocolate or sweet I do caramel corn rice cake spread with peanut butter and sprinkled with chocolate chips. For salty I do sea salt nuts. Other ideas are frozen bananas dipped in…

What type of foods do you usually crave?

Apple slices.with peanut butter. Caramel corn rice cakes with peanut butter. Stove top popcorn. I drizzle a little of butter and salt on mine. Just log the calories for the butter. String cheese. Greek yogurt. Frozen yogurt covered berries. Frozen chocolate dipped bananas. Protein bars. Aldi's (not sure if you have those…

Just had one tonight that is now my favorite. Blueberries, peach, banana and kale. It also had almond milk in the recipe. I used cashew milk but again you can just use water or green tea for the liquid. First time having a kale smoothie. Found the recipe on pinterest.

I have just been using water or green tea for the liquid. I got my ninja to incorporate more veggies in my daily diet so I have been doing green smoothies. My favorite so far is - one frozen banana, one apple, 1/2 cup of carrots, a couple handfuls of spinach and for the liquid either water or green tea. I have found…

Welcome....been doing SL for three months now. Watched alot of you tube videos and have had my brother check my form from time to time. I have found one of the things that has helped me tremendously when lifting is knowing how to breathe during the lift. Really has made a difference. Good luck!

Buy a couple of 2.5lb weights and take with you. Make sure to not leave them though.

Awesome advice!!!! Thanks for all the responses.

That is awesome!!! I have been doing Stronglifts 5x5 for 2 months now and loving it!

Do you think it's a treadmill thing? Had no problems last year doing c25k but I was doing it outside.

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking about just doing the elliptical until we get some better weather. Elliptical here I come.

Awesome!!!

Wow. You look awesome!!!

Minute by minute then day by day start making better choices. You'll be amazed how small changes can make a big difference. You took the first big step which was stepping on the scale. You got this!
