I have lost 39 pounds so far and have lost 5 inches everywhere....I thought at first it was just my boobs...but after measuring I found out I have lost consistantly over my body

I am a high school math teacher.

raw nuts

Are we related? My family has all kinds of health issues and continue to blame it on genetics. I have found that the only way I can lose weight is to become more or less vegeterian....which I have no problem doing because I am not real crazy about meat anyway....I do eat fish on occassion. My sister keeps insisting that I…

I understand your struggle and frustation but ultimately as adults we have to decide to improve ourselves are you can do is be positive and help yourself. I feel like at times when people are encouraging me, they are really just sitting back and waiting for me to fail and then say I told you so. You have to do this for…

vegetable soup is easy....canned tomatoes and frozen vegetables

I am 5'10" and things are better than they use to be.....but still a problem with jeans and other pants....and my daughter who is 12 is already taller than me and a size 4-5....it took us forever to find her black dress pants.....

Fruits and vegetables are pretty much all I eat...with a few whole grains....

vegetarian chili....you make it just like you do the meat version except add a few more beans, peppers, onions and mushrooms....if you make too much....you can freeze it...... Also, vegetable soup is very easy.....a can or two of crushed tomatoes and a bag of frozen mixed vegetables.... And here is a website I use a good…

I am trying to lose around 155 pounds....I am down 37 so far

I am an emotional eater....sometimes I would hide it and sometimes I would not.....when my grandmother died, I ate an entire half gallon on chocolate ice cream......another time when I was coming back from taking the comps for my masters....I stopped at Mcdonald's got a quarter pounder with cheese, large fries and a large…

I was 160 when I graduated....got down to 135 the first semester of college.

I know how you feel....I have lost over 30 pounds in less than two months....and get told that I am doing it all wrong and that a little of this or that will not hurt me.....I just tried to avoid the family as much as possible during the holidays.....my husband and kids don't care what I eat.....as a matter of fact.....one…

Woman has actually won olympic gold medals during that time...so I think it would be okay to work out....it might actually make you feel better

What I did was not as painful for some reason this time....first thing in the morning when I get up....I drank a 20 ounce bottle of water....then I ate my breakfast.....I continued to drink water all day.....if my headache started....then I would drink a diet coke but only one....and the next day I would start all…

Your goal weight is personal, however, let the numbers guide you. If you feel good and have good numbers from the doctors, I would go with the goal weight. Weight lose is not just about looking good...it is also about being healthy

I love wine....but I love myself more....so I just quit.....I am already addicted to food....I figure I don't need more than one addition....I have to eat....I don't have to drink....that way I can spend all my booz money on the expense of healthy eating....

I am planning on doing a triathlon in June (1/4 mile swim, 10-15 miles bike, and 3.1 run). I am planning on working on the running first, adding the bike in late February or early March, then the swimming in late April early May.....so I have lost my mind too.....I want to run the Breast Cancer Marathon in Jacksonville Fl…

I got mine in before the icy rain.....did 2miles and then weights.....it was great.....

I lost 80 pounds before....ran a couple of 5Ks....was starting to train for a marathon....had my long run up to 8 miles....fell and twisted my ankle on gravel at school(love it when we out grow the school and have to put in trailers)......it took me over a year but I managed to gain all of that back plus.....and it has…

green leafy veggies are the healthiest.....the more raw veggies you eat the better....I like salads in the summer however since it is cold I make vegetable soup with a couple of cans of tomatoes and a big bag of frozen veggies....easy and filling......one of my other favorites is bell peppers, onions and mushrooms with…

Mine has the body fat analysis on it....I love it....I believe we got it at Walmart so it could not have cost that much

Actually....I am planning on starting to run after the first of the year.....I was running a few years ago....but stopped....I have done two 5Ks.....I would like to do a triathlon in June, 2011

Freshman in college....so like....29 years ago.....

I have lost a 2 year old child.....but I am pretty sure my children at 2 weighed more than that....very tall children.....

When you fast do you still workout?

I have lost 3 inches so far.....I am starting at a 44D.....hoping to end up at 34C or smaller......

Keep in mind you are not on a diet...but undergoing a life style change....if you are eating so that you fill deprived...maybe you should check your "diet"

beans, nuts, green leafy veggies....I don't eat animal protien at all except for fish on occations.....it can be done without meat...but it takes planning.....

I am over 40 and come from one of those families where poor health is "heredity". I want to prove them all wrong and besides....I live in Georgia...it is very hot in the summer and I don't plan on wearing many clothes this summer
