Passion Tea. It is great hot and iced.

I already add spinach to my smoothies. Love it. Looking to amp up the protein even more though. Thanks for the suggestions!

I don't necessarily want a break from my "diet"/eating habits. I am quite happy with them. However, I have been told that my eating habits have probably caused my metabolism to slow tremendously making it quite difficult to lose the 3 pounds standing between me and my goal weight. I've been encouraged to take 2 weeks and…

Sworkit sounds awesome! I will have to find it!

Thanks all for the suggestions. Working on slowly getting over the mental block about adding calories. Have another 1300 day planned for today. Thanks again!

Not brave enough to go on a full diet break yet, but I did just go get a 100 calories worth of a snack over my typical 1200 calorie diet. I am going to see what 1300 calories does for a bit and continue to make small adjustments once I see results one way or the other. Thanks for the encouragement!

Ugh....very good points being made. I am just really really afraid of increasing my calories, but I guess it needs to be done. I'm just not sure how much to increase by and to and over what time period. Looks like I have some researching to do.

I have been at 1200 for a while. It really hasn't been a problem for me. I eat lots of egg whites, grilled chicken breasts, spinach, light and fit greek yogurt, soups, turkey sausage, whole grain flat outs, Morning Star veggie crumbles and patties, turkey pepperoni, brown rice, black beans, sugar free jellos and puddings,…

Thanks for the suggestions thus far! I am super hesitant to take a diet break or move to maintenance. I feel like I will balloon back up pretty quickly. I will definitely try increasing my protein. I just bought some weights so I plan to start some lifting. Probably won't have tons of time for it but surely every minute…

I started at 271 pounds in August 2012. Currently at 123 pounds. Started learning appropriate portion sizes, counting calories, and moving more.

I've had and enjoyed them. My favorites are Slow Roasted Turkey, Mesquite Chicken, Lasagna Bake, and Mini Rigatoni with Vodka Cream Sauce.

Egg Whites, grilled chicken breast, spinach, light and fit greek yogurt, Fiber One 80 calorie Chocolate Cereal, Fiber One 90 calorie snacks, Nature Valley granola thins, tuna fish, non-sweetened apple sauce, turkey pepperoni, Morning star Veggie Crumbles, blueberries, cucumbers, and lots of water have been my go-tos.

Haven't lost it unfortunately. I've gone from 271 to 123 and that stupid belly is still there. My doctor says I should only lose 3 more pounds before I am at an unhealthy weight. Sure hoping those 3 pounds come from my disgusting gut!

Thanks Sapporo. I am not telling anyone. They are watching what I eat and timing my workouts. I don't even need to log, they basically do it for me.

5'2.5" Current Weight: 125 Goal Weight: 115-110

I will weigh first thing in the morning, like I do every morning. I wasn't planning on working out tomorrow after donating. I will take my own snack with me so I know how many calories I have had for the day. I like to weigh every morning. Just don't want to weigh the morning after donating and see a loss that is purely…

I hope it's not true! Very disheartening if it is. I hate my belly pouch and desperately want it gone.

I don't feel exactly the same about my body. I know I have lost weight and am much healthier. However, I definitely have a different view of myself than others. Others have told me that I need to stop trying to lose weight. That I look great. I don't see that at all! I still see disgusting fat rolls and a gut. I refuse to…

Took "my kids" to Schlitterbahn, a water park. After waiting in line we are about to get on the ride and I read the warning sign for the ride. According to the sign I was too heavy for the ride. I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to leave the kids to ride alone. I didn't want to embarrass them or myself by breaking…

Panera Bread, Chik-fil-a, and Chili's

My heaviest was 271.2 pounds. My lightest is where I am currently, 124.2 pounds. My initial goal was 135. Second goal was 125. Current goal is 115.

An average adult woman! Disgusting to think it was that bad.

I am 5 foot 2.5 inches. I may try a different goal. I really love watching the number on the scale drop though.

I don't know what build I am.

I have a similar dilemma. I am within my healthy BMI but I can still see rolls of fat (shudder) on my stomach. I have been told I am "too skinny" and that I "need to stop losing." I've also been asked if I am getting anorexic. I am not happy with what I still see, so I have decided to continue to try to lose. I decided…

3 months?!?! I am already super frustrated.

Thanks for the suggestion! I will try to add some heavier lifting to my routine and see if it helps.

Thanks! This is my second goal and I just can't get there. I am hoping to get to set another lower goal if I can ever get to this one.

Started in a size 24. Currently in a size 4. Took a year, changing my diet, counting calories, and getting off my butt.
