I buy the Chobani non-fat yogurts. They are great and come in awesome flavors. They are way more filling, no fat, lots more protein!

Totally know how you feel. I was overweight my whole life and am just beginning to shop in the non-plus size clothes sections. I think it takes a while to see yourself without the fat suit, even when you aren't wearing it anymore. I still have some weight to lose and I can't imagine what I will look like, but i know it…

All carbs turn into sugar, which turn in to fat, if you eat too many. Even if they are healthy carbs. I think this will definately help you if you manage them better.

I would definately suggest watching your carbs-limit them to 130-145 max and up your protein. That was what helped me-and was recommended by my dietician.

I wear a regular bra and a sports bra over it. It is usually enough to feel comfortable.

I started at exactly the same place as you. 5' 4" and 295. I too have never been under a size 14/16 and was 200 lbs at age 15. I started with 150 lbs to lose and know it seems impossible, but it is not! I am currently 193 and still working hard to get to 150-160. It has taken me almost 3 years so far. So it is possible,…

Definately I noticed once I kept my carbs to approximately 105-135 carbs max per day, that helped with the plateaus.

I would try to keep your carb total for the day around 135-140 and definately!!! watch the sodium..keep it under 2000mg at most. Both of those have helped me!

27 lbs in 3 months is awesome! how long have you been on a plateau? You might need to amp up your exercise and be sure to drink enough water! don't get discouraged!

Shrimp cocktail is always a good one!

I find it to go back to "normal" about 5-7 days after my cycle starts.

1200 Calories is definately not enough with working out that much!:wink:
