120 is my goal and I am over half way.

They need to also go by the weight of peoples carry-ons too.

I am interested too.

You are bloated from over training and not drinking enough water back off some of the workouts they are not doing you that much good. Up your water to at least 12 glasses a day to lose the excess water weight. You still need the 1,500 calories minimum or even more than that withe the workouts.

Regift to someone else take it to school/work and give some away. Or get tiny bags and divide and have only a bag a day and logg ALL calories and enjoy.

I cant tell you how upset I get when I see a dog not on a leash. My dog was attacked a few weeks ago. He was running with me and he was on his leash. Next a dog had his butt in his mouth and was shaking him. My heart sunk that day. Its not that hard if we all so the right thing. If you want them off the leash take them to…

This. My cocker spaniel could run a marathon and I am barely at the 5K level. We come in after 4 miles and I want to crash and she is running up and down the hallway wanting to play fetch. I also got a lighted leash because we go out early or late.

I stopped losing weight Mid-November on the 1,200 diet. I did not believe in plateaus I had always lost like clockwork then nothing. I did a reset in January consuming 2,000 plus and exercised less gained 3-4 pounds. For the month of February I went to 1,500-1,600 and started working out more and dropped 6 pounds. Then I…

The problem is that she was given 1,700 and ate 1,400 with exercise. The classic undereating. The body needs fuel to burn the body is holding onto everything it gets.

I have a one year old cocker spaniel and she went throught the C25K app with me. She loves to run. I am at the 5K level and I think she could do a marathon. We come in the house after 4 miles I take off her leash and she is running up and down the hallway. I wanted a small-medium size dog that was active to get me off my…

I did a hard reset in January and gained 3-4 pounds I ate what the charts said was my TDEE and did little exercise. Then went to a deficit February 1st that was more than what I did before my weight loss stopped and upped workouts lost 6 pounds. Figured my actual TDEE (based on calories in and pounds lost) and went with a…

If you are unemployed why only walk every other day? Why not everyday? Try starting an intermitting walk/jog program like C25K. If you do not have a smart phone look online the schedule and time yourself. If you go with the lower calorie you might lose weight faster at first but then stall. 1 pound a week for 8 weeks is…

I only see her tiny baby sister Spot on a rare occasion usually after I have been more active.

Your muscles retain water for repair and you use them harder doing strength than cardio.

If you are eating under 1,500 eat more and up protein, fiber and fluids. If your workouts burn more than 400 eat more and up protein, fiber and fluids. Workouts do not need to be special. Lift whatever whenever do yoga and train to run a 5K.

Nom Nom

A food scale would be helpful. But your protein and fiber counts are way too low. My minimums are 100g of protein and 20g fiber. How much fluids are you taking in? I do not always drink plain water but track all fluids to get to a 12 glass minimum. The foods you are eating look like they are high in sodium so you need a…

I was thinking about adding some to light cream cheese for graham crackers.

I was at 1,750 last month and after losing 6.5 pounds I upped my calories this month to 1,850. I am 5'2", 46 and perimenopausal with a low resting heart rate. I am working more than fulltime and am not working out much right now. Upping my calories has boosted my metabolism.

If you are working out 5 times a week then your body needs more than 1,300. Macros are very good the body machine just needs more fuel to burn to work efficiently.

Sometimes a "Diet Break" is what you need. You need to remember why you want and need to lose the weight and make a new game plane. Do not cut your calories too low so you can fit in yummy food. Weigh, measure and log everything and be completely honest in your diary. Log things BEFORE you eat them. Fitting in yummies will…

It is not just math it is science as well. The body is a self adaptable machine and stops producing the hormones needed to break down carbs when you go too low too long this is the same for fat and protein too. And if you go too low on calories you will lose less weight then with slightly more. The body needs fuel and all…

Did God just gift you with fabulous hair?

Brown like a roast and then slow cook in a crockpot or oven with a lid add a little water, seasonings and veggies, Yum.

Admitting that you have a problem is the first step to recovery. Overeaters Anonymous has been around for years but does not get as much attention as AA. As friends on here we are here to support each other. Let me know if there is anything I can do for you.:flowerforyou:

32 Minutes for your first you are amazing. Rock on Girl!! Fo for a 10K and then a half you can do it.:drinker:

I had 5 before the age of 30. 3 Girls 2 Boys. Now they are 27(Monday), 23, 20, 18 & 17. My Pic is of my Dad who is in the hospital (My posts confuse people)

Drink lots and lots of fluids. Eat at maintenance as if you were not breastfeeding and good luck and take care of the munchkin. Edited to say that I breastfed 5 children 4 of them past a year the other I dried up due to not eating and drinking enough and I was pregnant with the next. My pic is in honor of my father who is…

One would think an Ironman would be pumping Iron.:ohwell:

I have a low body temp to cold most of the time, inspite of peri-menopausal and have a very low (38-40) resting heart rate. I still am able to lose weight though. My mouth can not handle hot spicy foods but I do have sweet peppers, onions and garlic almost daily and am doing at least 100g of protein daily. I sleep with an…
