Dont think of this as a "diet" that is a bad word in my house, I am changing my life. Therefore if I really want that cookie I go for it, but just one and then I dont over indulge. I have started thinking in terms of how long it takes me to burn off junk calories, and really its not worth it!!!! Make it fun, don't stress.…

HI all, had a great Monday, stayed under calories and had boot camp tonight :) Hope everyone had a good day!!

I too spetn a day at C.E.C. I took a couple of healthy options for me to much on while there! I also stopped getting pizza there, now we just get tokens and play to our hearts content. Then I take the kids to McDonald's or something, at least there I can get a grilled chicken sandwich!! But it is okay to indulge on…

I am 5'2", set at 1400 cal/day, that is from my trainer, I just started eating my exercise calories. When I wasn't eating them I wasn't loosing any lbs. Between getting muscle and body fighting to keep the food it was basically going to starvation mode. That is different for every person. My trainer tells me that we need…

Well , I lost 1 lb this week, which is pretty good for me. I have had a lot of muscle gained in the last 5 weeks so getting the scale to move regularly has been hard!!! :smile: I allowed my self a cheat today :blushing: , but still stayed in my calorie range for the day!!! I am going to do a healthy dinner so it will be…

I did it, went to chili's to eat and said no to the chips and salsa, no to all the Dr. Pepper with free refills and got a sensible 8 oz sirloin with the steamed veggies and fries, which I only ate about 1/4 of!!! I did my 60 min boot camp this morning, weights day...ow!! Then came home and hit my treadmill for a quick 15…

I'm in!!! I would love to loose 10 lbs by next year This sounds great, SW:191 CW:185 GW: 140

Try baked chips, and low salt that will help, buy a natural salsa or make one yourself(store bought stuff is HIGH in sodium) Everyone will appreciate it, plus it is a good habit to get into, teach your girl right, that veggies and fruit are a good snack not an obligation!!! Then they wont be where we are!! But enjoy…

Great job. It's hard to find what works for us. Eating is individual, I personally could easily not eat until dinner but its bad for you and then I dont worry about being healthy b/c hey, its all I've had today! Hope I figure my foodout like you have!!

Thats my thing, I don't like to eat early and then I get busy...breakfast is a meal I could do with out, trying to change that though!

Wow, you have put a lot of work into your food!! I am seriously impressed. I simply don't have it in me to go through all that!!! I need simple, I have too many kids around to try and get the organized about how much of what! I figure I am doing good to stay in my calories and not allow more than 30% of my cals. to be fat…

My goal, to not emotional eat while dealing with my mother, sister and her kids!!! Love them to pieces but they are a lot of work!! Plus this will be the first time I have went to a restaurant while eating right!! Other than that I will do my boot camp class on Sat. and my yoga then on Sunday I will hit the treadmill

I have eaten...but with 10kids under foot not logged yet. The only nuts that I can eat are peanuts, are these still good? You always hear about almonds being good.

The Shot is what started my weight issues, I was @ 110 before, and quickly packed on almost 20 lbs, with nothing different. For me the shot was a disaster!!!! My hormones have never been right again, and it's 10 years later. But your right, any hormonal birth control can do it!

Hey gang, I have been MIA this week, very busy!! Anyways I just weighed in today and no change, but my inches are smaller, I hope I'm getting more muscle and thats why my lbs stay the same! Frustrating anyways... Hope everyone is doing good and loosing!

I so need to be here!!! I am a food addict, I love to eat. I am having a horrible day today and really want to go grab something from the kitchen, frosting fixes a bad day right?? Nope it sure doesn't! SO I will whine on here a bit and feel better! I turn to food when I am stressed or having a rough day, considering I run…

Wow, thats a lot of food and cal. lucky me I dont do gravy or stuffing of candied yams...the bad stuff is off my liked foods!!! I got in 40 mins of yoga and ran a mile on the treadmill, I mean RAN it!! I have been very easy on my cals. so far today so hopefully I will be okay!! Happy Thanksgiving all

Hi all, hope everyones day is going good!! I just did a 2.17mi run(with walking recovery times) but was able to run fro 8 min @ a time, my previous best was 4 min @ once so I am pumped!!! Who knwo how nice it was to be DRIPPING sweat!! Baking pies for Thanksgiving, my house smells so GOOD!!! but Ilook better, that is my…

Well, I like the term "fun-sized" I am 5'2'', weigh in @ 187. I am doing good on this weight lose, and doing it right. Good choices and hard work, like I'm on here right now instead of snaking on the choc. chip cookie dough for the cookies I am making for my son for Thanksgiving. I used to make a batch for 4 dz cookies but…

My brag today is I have lost 11.5 inches total in 4 weeks!!!! 4 inches off each thigh!! Who-hoo

Amen to that, i just beat that challange, I want to eat sweets and sleep!!!!

My trainers says BMIs' ar BS!!! I need to loose 70 lbs to get in a healthy bmi, I weigh 187 right now, if I went down 70lbsI would look sickly, screw it I go by my feel good number!!! And that is a size 8!!!!

You can do it!! And your body will gt used to it, but it want s the junk back!!!! Stay strong and keep carrot sticks and celery on hand!! No dips, also lunch meats are a good light snack, they are high protein low cal! I had a hard time at first and now cant eat enough to fill my 1400 cal/day. Give ur self some slack and…

Female 187lbs cal/day 1400 for 1.3lbs/week off Not sure if it's working...I avoid the scales, but do feel better and have trimmed up a lot work out at least 5 times a week, 2 days running on treadmill and 3 hard core boot camp days at my gym I don't eat any of my exercise cal/day I have a hard time getting in my 1400 and…

My success story.... The back of my thighs are no longer jiggly!!! Plus I was out running errands and ended up starving, needed a snack I pulled into Sonic like always but I ordered a BANANA!!! That was a turning point I am serious. It was just me in the car, no one else would know but I actually didn't want the junk!…

Welcome and good luck! You will love ti here, whenever you feel like eating your feeling log on!!!! As for the boyfriend, he needs to support you in everything!!! If he doesn't then he ain't worth it. And if not being intimate is he call bc of your weight then get a new one. You man needs to to love you no matter what you…

Welcome, those 9 lbs are work!!:sad: My daughter was 9, my son close to it! Welcome, and good luck to you!

I agree, only pure water should be counted as water! Otherwise you could count a coke b/c it has carbonated water in it! Drink the 64 oz of water and you find the other stuff isn't needed. I would go for an apple vs. apple juice, better use of cals!!!

What do you know, I talked openly to him and he said he will try to get it and that I do work hard and need some time, and he asked me to open up more!!! This fixing my weight from the inside out is great!!!!!
