Welcome and congrats for making a life changing decision to be healthy! If I can help in anyway, just reach out.

I just roast my potatoes.

Your fine. You don't have to eat all the calories your working out. That's how you'll lose. Just stick to your 1200 and you'll be happy with the result.

Organic is definitely better, just cost more unfortunately.

What a success story!!! Congrats.

Welcome to this great support system. If I can help in any way, just reach out. :flowerforyou:

Welcome aboard and I'm pleased to meet you on such a great site! If I can help you in your journey in anyway, by all means reach out. Wishing you much success. :flowerforyou:

Me too!

Don't get discouraged. Your body is shifting, building muscle. Just stay the course.

Welcome and you can do it!

Definitely hit the chiropractor. A doctor will only give you pain killers at best. Chiropractor will solve the problem.

I agree!!! Keep the yolk of at least one egg and use the whites for the rest of the omelet. You need fat to lose fat people!

Drink more water!!!!! Also medications (even the pill) might be aiding you in retaining fluids.

The body is designed to take it off slowly. Also, many times hormones are a factor which we are unaware of so it makes weight gain easier and faster.

Sounds excellent! I use one egg and two egg whites, that would lover the calories as well.

Hi and welcome! I don't weigh anything. Over time you kinda of get a handle on what portion size should be.

Welcome aboard! You'll find all the support you need here.

Let's do it!

This is a great site! You'll enjoy it and find weight loss success.

It's worth it. Stick with it :)

Welcome. Organic is best, if you can find it and afford it.

I would go with the gym. I've done both and am definitely self-motivated. However there is something extra you get when you physically have to go there. You work a little harder, you're not distracted by anything at home, it really is YOUR time.

OMG what a victory!!!!!!

This is the toughest season food wise and trying to stay on track. Yes, lots of water, hot herbal teas always make me feel fuller, moderation and not missing a workout. That's the best we can do.

I like almond butter. Not really a sweet eater so I can't think of anything other then fruit that would appeal to me. My issue is salt. Sorry.

Welcome aboard! Nice to meet you. This is a terrific site. Let me know if I can help in anyway.

I would use aerobic high impact for a very active boot camp workout.

Salt is so the key for me. I went up a pound from the chips I took in the past two days, even though I stayed within my calories!

If you really want a healthy cleanse, just juice fruits and veggies for a day or two. Then go back to your regular calorie intake. All that stuff costs more money and the ingredients are sketchy.

Better to eat at least 3 meals a day to maintain your insulin levels. Don't let your body think your starving because it will store the calories you take in later on.
