I'm new to Keto, I am only on day 3. Not sure if I am reaching the correct Keto macros yet so far. I have had thyroid issues my whole life and have always needed my sweets and heavy carb loaded foods and can't seem to keep this weight off. I especially need to eliminate the sugar from my diet and the craving for it if…

So this is my 3rd time at this, hopefully it will be the charm! First off I have been hypothyroid my whole life, never had a problem with weight until kids and gained significant amount of weight with each pregnancy due to my thyroid levels not being checked and monitored very well. Weight loss is very challenging having…

Thank you for the encouragement! Day 1 was pretty successful, Its around the end of the first week Im worried about, thats usually when I fall off

I do rewards after every 10 lbs because if I wait longer I tend to get unmotivated...anyways things like a new purse, new outfit, date night with my husband, fitness related things, mani/pedi...When I get to my final goal I plan on getting a mini makeover and a weekend away with just my husband and I... I also saw someone…

I totally feel your frustration, Ive been stuck between 165-170 part of it is my own fault Its been a couple crazy months since February but I work out everyday and about majority of the week Im on target with calories, My schedule is crazy busy but its about to calm down a bit so Im hoping to add more exercise to see if…

All so true!! Especially #9 like you Ive had 3 kids natural

Ive lost 73 and only at 170 and I want to lose another 40 lbs which would only be 130 lbs and Im 5'4, but when I tell people I want to lose 40 more lbs they look at me like I have some kind of eating disorder or something , when that would be in my zone for a healthy weight, granted they dont know how much I weigh now but…

Im a busy mom who works and goes to schooI I start my day at 530 am so I can get my workout in. As exhausted as I am I feel better cause I know its done and out of the way and I like having that hour to myself before everyone else wakes up. On the weekends I tell the kids to go play and I take control of the tv and…

Im 5'4 Starting weight was 240 and my current weight is 170, goal weight 125-130. Feel free to add me! :flowerforyou:

One of my coworkers did the diet and has lost 75 lbs and has kept it off in a year she has kept it off, she does the maintenance cycle through the week and eats whatever she wants on the weekends. She completed two whole rounds by the time she got to goal. I got the book and attempted it a few times and could not keep to…

I just started it today as well, found it kind of easy actually and burned a little less than 200 calories (I wear HRM), but Im going to stick with it because from what Ive read it builds to get more intense. Plus I also think its because Ive done quite a few of her other DVDS

I would like to know as well and possibly see some progress pics on it, I actually just ordered it and expecting hopefully next week

Exactly!! In my situation I HAVE to work outside because my husband is on disability and Im the main source of income and I go to school as well but it is nice having him home all the time since Im gone alot. I did stay at home with my younger 2 kids until they started preschool and I have my summers off now since I work…

I eat them as well or the Smart Ones for dinner usually with a vegetable and whole wheat bread on the side and I drink about 16 cups of water a day. I try to eat at least 1200-1300 calories a day and I get 30-60 minutes of exercise in a day, so maybe try making sure you hit 1200 calories a day at least and if your not…

I just got mine 2 days ago and LOVE it it is my first HRM so I think its good to get used to that before using a more expensive one with more features because Im still kind of getting used to it with the buttons can be confusing but once you use it for activity youll love it too, mine is pink also I got it from bodytronics…

That sounds like a happy shopping day, I cant wait to have that shopping day, Ive went from 18-20s and now Im in 12s , size 8 is my goal...Congrats !

You look great, rock that bikini this summer!! You deserve it!

yeah my son I mentioned about is not only red headed he also has pretty blue eyes not me I have brown

love this!

:flowerforyou: Im a redhead and so is my son, so sad my daughters didnt have it, but when my son is a grown up hoping he'll have me some redheaded grandbabies, usually theres one in every generation for us, my mom had red hair too

Youll get there that is a huge accomplishment, I know because I started out At 240 lbs too, actually 243 and have lost 71 so far so YOU CAN DO IT congrats on your loss so far

Second hand stores and clearance racks, I will admit Ill buy a new outfit or two each size Ive went down that wasnt on clearance because I wanted to wear a nice outfit to somewhere I was going. I cant wear baggy pants too long because I have to look business casual for my job so I have to shop each size I go down and…

My husband is very supportive in the complimenting me and it seems he desires me a little more than when I was 70 lbs more and he understands when I make things for me and not the rest of the family, however like many of the others he does require his snacks, the good thing he keeps them in his man cave room as he calls it…

Chocolate!! Love my chocolate fiber bars and brownies and low cal fudgesicles I feel like I'm cheating but yet Im not

Whenever I was pregnant I didnt mind and actually loved it { I loved being pregnant if I hadnt gained 50 lbs or more due to my thyroid issue each time I probably would have had like 10 kids) if it were people I knew, but strangers thats just weird especially without asking

Im currently doing the shred I have lost about 6 lbs and Im on Level 2 Day 6 and Ive lost quite a few inches in various spots, I took before pics and plan on taking after pics when Im finished

SHOPPING!!! And going on a Romantic Weekend away with my husband : ))) Cant wait roughly 40 lbs to go and 69 Down!!

Special K has the shakes try theirs maybe you might like the taste better or make your own using the whey protein powder if your getting burned out on the slim fast ones, Ive never tried using any type of shakes really just offering suggestions. Now that your steadiy losing and the slimfast got you going into the right…

Just some of my ideas to get over the binge eating habits: Try doing things with your hands when tired or bored puzzles, word search puzzles , a hobby that involves keeping your hands busy.....as far as something that helps me is I chew sugarfree gum comes in many different flavors so If you like a minty taste or prefer a…

Right now in a 14 at 173 lbs they are getting pretty baggy Im sure I could fit into some 12s by now, I am 5'4 my goal is 125-130 lbs and would love to be in a 6/8 I have an hour glass figure though my darn hips hoping for at least an 8 at that weight. At my biggest I was 18/20 a year ago and 240 lbs
