LOL totally agree, there is no quick fix just a lot of hard work. Congrats on your success

Dont give up and dont beat yourself up either. everyone has days where the calories are out of control. Keep logging and in time find ways to cut back. As you said it is only day 4. If your husband is anything like mine "the proof is in the pudding" as they say. He has heard me say so many times that I am going to lose the…

When I am making any dish I put it through the recipe app and find out the calories per serving. May seem "hardcore" but until I did it I did not realize how out of whack my estimates were, both on serving size and on calories. I always did my recipies by taste now I have to taste measure and add. More work but I am…

Nice job. Typically how our clothes fit is an even better indication of how well we are doing

Carrot cake or carrot muffins always highest in fat because of the amount of OIL that is used to make them. If you were able to see the restaurant make the them you would never eat them. I worked at a donut shop a long time ago. Once you realize the ingredients it is impossible to eat without guilt

Bump. On my own for two weeks so perfect breakfast on the go

I hear your dilemma. I have been ill and I have had no energy. I am having a heck of a time eating enough calories. I am doing the best I can and without the exercise I guess it will even out

I had a C section over twenty years ago and I do have the little pouch. When I was at my smallest it was hardly there so yes you can get rid of it but be prepared to do a LOT of ab work. Good luck

Woman, YOU rock

Completely agree. If my calorie intake allows a treat I have it. I refuse to feel as though I am deprived. I do that and I will CHEAT. I will give up

It doesnt always work but when it does it is incredible.

Bump. I am using it and a friend did too. She lost a lot of inches in the aforementioned area however, she does not take into account the caloric deficit that Herbal Magic had her on as well. She got me to try it and as soon as I am out I am not buying any more. She likes to think that I have lost the almost 20 inches only…

Thanks for the laugh. Really needed it today. Good for you though.

HAHHAHAH...I hear ya. We have been married 22 years this year and started dating over 30 years. There is NO secret. Marriage is hard work and commitment. He is my best friend and the thought of being without him just kills me (even when I could literally choke him at times). We have had our issues as stated above (all of…

Greek yogurt for sure ut one thing I have done with chicken is equal parts of greek yogurt and mustard. Tangy and tasty

Absolutely.....

I love using greek yogurt instead of mayo.....

The hotter the better. I have found that since I have been tracking everything. I have been craving the heat

Your strength is inspirational. Not everyone has your strength but you are helping just by sharing

I am seriously tearing up. You do not need a man to give your life meaning and you do not need a man to raise your children. Your son will learn how to treat women from the example he sets and by what you are willing to take. When you lose the weight and you get your confidence back you will look at him with pity and…

I think low carb is fine, no carb is not. Keep in mind it is important to make changes that you can maintain as a lifestyle not just to lose weight. I love carbs, potatoes, bread, pasta, so I limit my intake. I eat a lot of veggies which can be high in carb but they are complex carbs. As for the fat, there are good fats.…

Bump...you and your wife are very inspirational

The only one I really remember was when I was gaining weight after being very tiny for quite a while. My mother in law said "Well, I know you are not pregnant, so you must have stopped going the gym." LMAO

BUMP_

LOVE IT
