I recently tried the keto diet and I had the first ever high cholesterol reading in my life. I was advised to start getting in more exercise and switch my diet to Mediterranean. I was able to get it back to normal in three months. I start every morning with a serving of oatmeal and berries and increased my bean intake i.e.…

Yes! He is totally right!! Don't ask me why but, if you don't get enough sleep your body won't lose weight! In fact there have been weeks where I have only gotten like 51/2 hrs just a few days and not only will I not lose but I will gain a pound or so but, sure enough once I get caught up 12 plus hours then my weight…

I am nearly identical in starting weight to you. Let me tell you, I have the SAME exact problem. When I hit a plateau - I try to change my routine... if you normally do the elliptical for 45 minutes try doing 15 minutes of stairs/ or use the stair-stepper for a warm up stretch and then run for 30 minutes. Or increase the…

I used to get really depressed thinking that I had at some point ate something or didn't exercise enough... and…

Try planning what you will have the night before. You could package up grapes/ slice up an orange the night before and put it in a sandwich bag or container for convenience. I find that Egg Beaters is a great way to replace scrambled eggs . If you have never tried them - I promise they don't taste much different... one…

THANK YOU FOR SHARING!! You look absolutely AMAZING!! I can't believe how flat your tummy is! Great JOB!! This is exactly what I needed to keep me motivated! I started MFP at 188lbs and today I weighed in at 177lbs! For me to be below 179lbs is a HUGE victory! So, I came to the website to see some success stories to keep…

My weight fluctuates as well. I notice that sometimes when I am stressed out (even though I may not even realize that I'm stressed until after the fact) my weight goes up as much as 5 lbs. Once the issue is resolved/ workout my weight will return to normal.

Well, I have a hard time fitting vegetables into my diet. I find what works for me, is to make a huge pot of cabbage soup on the weekend - you can find recipes on the internet for the cabbage soup diet. That way if I get in a bind and I'm super hungry I have that ready to go to curb my appetite Although, I just use the…

I was told by my trainer to "Lift, then Run". Not too sure why...perhaps to prevent injury? Maybe warming the muscles up before you use them--that's just my guess...
