Yes -- at least one balanced meal with Protein, starch, fruits/veggies, and a fat. If you eat low carb just do what fits into your plan. We can post what that meal was so it can give others new ideas for meals.

Hi, I am Dorie and love a daily challenge. I have lost a total of 43 pounds on my weight loss journey and am on my last 10 so getting a little more exercise will definitely help! This is a great idea, thanks for putting it together. I love supportive and active friends so please friend me if you want to. Dorie

Yes, I really like it too! It is the way you look at things that make such a big difference. When I knew I had X amount of calories to eat I would eat them whether I was hungry or not. Now that my goal is having the deficit be 500-1000 and just making sure I eat my BMR, I focus more on having a nice deficit. Not sure if…

Hi, I just joined this group yesterday but I will try to answer your question -- Yes, you need to always eat your 1616 calories whether you exercise or not. So days you don't exercise you will have a smaller deficit. If you do exercise, you don't have to eat back your exercise calories unless your "calorie remaining"…

Hi everyone! Tomorrow is Saturday, lets try to do 15 minutes of decluttering something - a drawer, a table, a closet etc. After 15 minutes you can stop or keep going for another 15 minutes. Then come back and list what you decluttered and how it went. What do you think, anyone going to join me?

Hope you had a happy birthday! I really like this idea! I will be turning 46 this year too! A realistic time frame to lose 46 pounds would be average 1-2 pounds a week depending (I would say probably 1 pound would be best). So I would say in 46 weeks it would be definitely doable!

Yes, that would be great! Then I can weigh in Monday for both! Also, a bonus to Monday weigh-ins is that it keeps me on the straight and narrow over the weekend which if not held accountable can sometimes be disastrous!!

I have a bodymedia which tells me how many calories I burn for the entire day -- this includes everything. Then I just subtract my food from that and that is my deficit. To lose 1 pound a week you need to have an average of 500 calories a day (3500 calories a week) for 1.5 pounds a week it is an average of 750 calories a…
