You could get a portable stove- plug it into the car so you can heat up stuff. I was thinking of getting this for my brother who drives trucks and has a hard time eating a healthy meal. It might help.…

I replaced it with something else. Soda was my go to during the day and specially when eating out. So I would just force myself to get orange juice every time I wanted a coke. It worked- I stopped drinking soda altogether. And now, I can just drink water and be fine.

Please don't kill me fasting folks- have there been studies on fasting diets and the long term effects or benefits. To me as a human who eats and will kill anyone after a couple of hours of starving, it seems really stressful on the body. Are there any studies that have look at people who have followed these diets into…

Great work- I love you positive attitude.

Hey- Everyone is different but I do better when I eat some calories back from exercise otherwise I feel completely starved. I tried doing the one day of indulgence and ended up getting so off track that I started obsessing about the rest of the week and planning so far ahead for that one day. I now started trying to listen…

If you have a gluten sensitivity like any other allergy your body can be holding on to the weight. So if you try going gluten free- which in my experience means eating more calories and still lose weight it might be a sensitivity. My doctor advised going gluten free and when I do keep it up I lose steady. The moment I…

You can totally see it- even in your posture. You should also lose the shirt. lol. :smile:

I weight in on Sunday afternoons so I will probably be the last reporting every week. Week 0- 221.6 Week 1- 220.6 1 pound lost.

Hey Rene, I am proud that you are trying again. I was just diagnosed this past year and decided to try to get some of the weight off before I felt like my body couldn't function as well. My mother has always struggled with her thyroid and has a hard time losing weight too. As hard as it is you have to make sure that you…

Thanks for the great suggestions!

I think before I used to eat a lot of the same unhealthy things- Now I am trying to add variety but I at the same time I feel blah about food. I dont know whats going on. Now I rarely eat anything that I say is amazing or great.

Thanks ladies- added you both.

Just stick it in the back of the cabinet behind healthy snacks if its that tempting. If you don't start eating it you can't overeat it. Or ration out your servings- don't eat out of the jar.

Thanks so much for sharing. You look so amazing!

If you taken some time off your body will be building muscle again so its going to look like you are not losing. Make sure that you are limiting your processed foods. Anything that comes out of a box or any meats that are precooked you should try to stay away from- even diet food. If you don't like veggies add them to your…

If you are an emotional eater you are going to be tested. Replace your habits. When I am stressed or upset and want to emotionally eat I tell someone. I usually call my mom or my BF. Telling someone holds you accountable and brings you back to not being alone. Also identify what stresses you. At work I drink tea constantly…

Don't get discouraged. Make sure that you are imputing your food everyday, Also make sure you are not leaving too much time between meals and that you are eating enough for the amount of activity you are doing. You don't want your body to be stressed during this process. Stay with it!!! You will get there.

Thanks ladies- these are great. I have to get some peanut butter.

I know what you mean- My boyfriend is a personal trainer and although he is always willing to help I want to do this for me and work on losing the weight on my own.
