Go running or do anything else that will make you sweat heavily - and drink water water water! Eat lots of fruits and veggies - make a fruity smoothie (but watch the cal intake).

Well this is a good place to start :happy: Welcome!

I always go way over my protein needs - anywhere from 30 - 60 over and I'm always under in my carbs and fat. I'm not even on a low carb diet or anything - it's just what I prefer to eat. But I don't ever really worry about it because I run at least 3-4 miles daily and weight train 5 days per week. I mainly just make sure I…

Everyone should do a little cardio for their cardiac health but at your weight you really don't need to be running any marathons. I'd stick with 20-30 minutes walking 3-4 days weekly. You should really look into strength training with your body type - it'll tone everything right up and you'll start noticing a nice…

...But if you do cheat - STAY WITHIN YOUR CALORIE LIMITS!

Thanks for the support :) Glad to know I'm not alone....even though I hate that some of you derailed too!

At least you LOOKED at what you ate and realized your mistake without any denial. It is impossible to tell yourself you will never over eat again for as long as you live. Just make a plan for a bad day once every two weeks or so. This will allow you some wiggle room on Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. BUT - you might…

My husband and I would like to have another baby. I was incredibly fit pre-pregnancy and I think it helped with a lot of the discomforts toward the end of my pregnancy. I gained 50 lbs during my pregnancy and when my little one turned 4 months I still carried an extra 20lbs. I'd like to have another healthy baby - and that…

I weight train 5 days per week which is only one or two muscle groups per day. Mondays - Chest (bench press, incline bench, and chest flies) Tuesday - Shoulders (military press, lateral arm raises, anterior arm raises) Wednesday- Legs/Butt (squats, lunges, calf raises) Thursday - Arms (assisted pull up targeting biceps -…

Honestly I'm going to eat candy and eat exactly what I want. If I deny myself anything at all it'll just backfire. The catch: 8pm-midnight I can kick back and relax infront of the tv and eat at my leisure but at midnight all that crap hits the trash can. I never keep junk in the house....because if it's here I will eat it.…

I would just use Aerobics,general in the database.

Most people only pee every 3-5 hours or so. So if you are peeing more than that it probably isn't just an isolated body odd - I'm wondering if you might have something else going on like a urinary tract infection. How often you pee has more to do than just how much fluids you are taking in. Have you had children? Could you…

I run about 3.5 miles at least 4 days per week but I try to do it everyday. I weight train 5 days per week (Chest, shoulders, back, arms, legs) for 20-30 min and do abs 3 days per week.

In a pinch you can do a hamburger helper meal and use lean beef and skim milk for stroganoff.

After a busy day at work, when I usually miss lunch, it was chips and cherry coke, which is provided free in the nursing lounge in unlimited quantities while I chart my entire day of work after my shift was over. But now that I only work one day per week after having my little one the habbit has been easier to break. At…

If you did happen to get what you want and loose that pesky 15 lbs in one month - there is a serious down side: Most of what you lost is water weight and muscle. Which means that when you gain it back (and you most likely will to loose it that fast) it will be harder to loose it again due to having less muscle mass than…

I used live with my Grandmother and she's exactly the same way. I just told her the truth and told her that I wanted to prepare all of my own meals. At first she said that she'd quit using oils and adding sugar to meals, etc. But then I noticed she would do it and lie about it. She would say that there was no added oils to…

How much weight to choose depends on what muscle group you are targeting. I'm starting back to lifting weights this coming MONDAY!!! My previous schedule was as follows (if you need pics of the exercises do google images): I always stuck to 3 sets of 10 for each workout and I only did one muscle group per day. Mondays:…

I know exactly what you are talking about. I have a 4 month old and it has taken some adjustment to establish a "watch baby AND make myself lunch plus dinner for the fam" routine. It IS hard! Here are some easy meals that I make: #1) Meatsauce: 1 large jar traditional prego heartsmart 1 lb extra lean hamburger (Laura's…
