You MUST drink lots of water 96oz(plus) and get at least 7 hours sleep or your stress hormones will be high making it all that much harder. Keep at it and make adjustments until you hit your sweet spot...

Your hrm is more accurate. The # on the machines is an estimate. It's a basic formula used as opposed to your hrm in which you entered your personal statistics. So again it is a formula, but YOUR exact numbers are in that equation...

1/2 cup oatmeal added 1 scoop chocolate protein powder, 1 T peanut butter (all natural) and a little milk...YUM. Especially if you are active, it really holds you!

Congrats to you! That's a huge step...the first step in finding a solution is admitting there is a problem...and that's what you did. And BTW, you still look beautiful!! We are always our own worst critics!! Working as a model probably instilled what beauty is...but it's really being a good person on the inside. Be healthy…

High impact usually involved jumping or climbing and is high impact on jointsie:jogging, step aerobics, etc.. Low impact you can do the same exercises without the jumping...low impact on your body...ie: swimming. Hope that helped..

Could be the milk...maybe your lactose intolerant? Do you drink milk alone and if so, does it bother you? If so, try the lactase milk...

I do stray, but not often and think of it as a way of life, not a diet. Things come up and we are going to go out or be invited to parties. I do however ask myself if I "really" want it...if so, I go for it with no regret. If not, I skip it ll together. I have learned that some things set me off...like cake. it relly is…

why not get it on their new flatbread? I heard they are good...I'm sure less carbs! The bagel will make you feel tired...

www.myrecipes.com most of them are cooking light recipes and list the nutritional info. Many are in here already when you go to enter them :)

Haven't tried that one, but I will. I tried this 1 he featured on his show the other day 1c lowfat milf (I used light vanilla soymilk) 1/2 avocado crushed ice 1T honey blend in blender....I made it to try before I made it for my 4 year old son. We all LOVED it, even my husband. It's very filling, and nothing ever fills me.…

a friend of mine bought the bodynugg and she said she had a hrm polarf11 before and it was equally accurate...I looked it up, it's about 129...

I post when I gain so I can hold myself accountable...and it sucks!! I was down seven dec 31 and now 2 months later, I''m only down 3(so I've gained 4 and for 8 weeks haven't lost it), so I feel your pain. We all do!! That's why we log on and weigh in so we can hopefully get it right, doing it the RIGHT way. Here's to the…

What I notice is that this site calculates your resting metabolic rate and therefore calculates calories per day and weightloss rate. I'm wondering how accurate this is without them testing us...I'm going to go to the gym and have my bodyfat tested and ask them how to figure it. 500 caloried deficit a day = 1 pound a week…

I'm in...maybe some competition will kick me into high gear!! As of today I am 144 which means I need to be 137 by month's end...wooohooo,,,that's would feel AWESOME!!

2T of peanut butter...will get you 200 cals and very low carbs.

Protein is low on here so I always go over...it's ok esp if you are working out. Watch the fats more closely...make them "good" fats...

It really does put YOU in control. Good luck! Remember it's a learning process...

go to www.myrecipes.com search breakfast...most recipes are from Cooking Light so you can see the nutritional info...have fun!

Try chobani if you get the plain, add some sugar free jam...yum

try ezekiel breads...found at healthfood stores or in the freezer section of the organic aisle at stop & shop...really natural whole grains, not processed. Some whole wheat breads are processes and have additives...try an all natural variety. Good luck!

Put in a baking dish, spray with PAM, pour in a little white wine, just 1t of butter, salt and pepper and bake...done when flaky. YUMMY

I finished p90x and started Chalean...I finished phase 1 but had to stop because I had surgery and couldn't lift weights for 6 weeks post op. I am starting again today and can't wait!! I saw more of a change in my body in 30 days than I did in 90 days of p90x. Do it...you'll love it!! It's much less of a time committment…

LOVE IT!! I eat it with a silver baby spoon to make it last :)

If I'm starving, I know I better eat or it's not gonna be pretty!! I've been tring to get the Green Giant simply steam frozen vegetables and even though the box is 3 servings, it's around 120 calories and healthy. The baby vegetable medley with sauce is delicious(even my husband said so) and sugar snap peas!! Good luck. I…

Let it go!! Do 5 extra minutes on your workout tomorrow without tracking it. We're only human.

a piece of fruit (your bananas shouldn't be too ripe or they are all sugar!), opt for a citrus fruit or pear for great fiber and filling. Add to that a whole wheat snadwich thin (in bread aisle) toast, put on 1/2 cup cottage cheese, Yummy and very well rounded!

You should eat all your calories...and if your weight doesn't budge after a week, leave like 50 extra a day and see if that does the trick. If so, stay there, if not go to 100 etc. 500 is way to many, your metabolism is slowing down :( For dinner ideas go to www.myrecipes.com search low cal or healthy or quick whatever. So…

I googled it and it told me 292 calories for 60 minutes. That's how I worked off my New Year's Eve calories...I shovelled for 2 1/2 hours!! I was sore the next day. Good luck.

Just do it! Get out the calendar which tells you what workout to do each day and go....you'll be sore as hell for the first week, but go onto the next day. Don't take a day off until it says to. It gets easier. it's neat to see your progress. Good luck!

I'm at 1200. Usually a kim's light bagel (100 cal) with a snack size cottage cheese for breakfast. Arnolds sandwich thins with boars head chicken breast and laughing cow light cheese wedge for lunch. Midafternoon fiberone bar and tea. For dinner a salad or vegetable and a Cooking Light recipe. I love cooking light because…
