my advice is to look at the ingredients of your food, take bread for example...it may say "wheat" but if you look at the ingredients and the number 2 ingredient is sugar, put it back! The way I lost weight was cutting down on processed foods and I started eating as many "WHOLE FOODS" as possible. I dont store or heat my…

Drink a whole glass of water before eating anything, and there's nothing wrong with eating a little bit, because I'm sure its good food! But what I do when I go to my Grandma's and there's always sweets is this...I eat a couple of bites of each thing she has just to get the taste, then after a little while I feel good…

or you can grab 1/2 cup of grapes and take some string cheese along with you and maybe a hard boiled egg. or fruit in yogurt. I do that alot, blueberries or strawberries or banana or mandarin oranges, etc. yum

I do this too but use honey instead ;)

i agree with you, it's pretty generic when it comes to guys v/s girls...I'd probably read some articles on eatbetteramerica.com and self.com and prevention.com they always have great tips and answers to questions like that.

ooh yes and Chili Powder is great on it!!!!!

sounds like a no-brainer, but if you dont already, add real slices of lemon. I had been using lemon juice (squeezable little lemon container) but there is no comparison to real lemon

yes I do too. Try eating fruit when you crave something sweet. Yes, it does have sugar but it's better for you than chocolate treats.

also, check this Yahoo Shine article out. Makes alot of sense: http://shine.yahoo.com/event/loveyourbody/why-you-cant-lose-those-last-10-pounds-1964849/

I agree. I just did it! and here is my advice: Eat alot of whole foods...raw fruits and vegetalbes with your meals. An example of what i do is: Breakfast-I eat high protein cereal with skim milk (or yogurt with fruit in it) and a fruit like banana or strawberries or blueberries, etc. Lunch-I'd eat a carrot, a sandwich on…

Ok here is my opinion, I think you need to start eating a good, healthy breakfast, and always be thinking of what fruit or vegetable you are going to eat with each meal. I always eat a fruit with my breakfast, example a banana and my cereal, and I do measure my cereal and use skim milk. For lunch I have a turkey sandwich…

honestly I dont add anyone unless I know them so I only have 4 friends. lol.

try doing some workouts to target your abs. the cardio is great but sometimes you need to target areas to see improvement in that area. i usually eat around the same thing everyday too lol. I eat really good and I'm strict about it, except for the weekends I slip a little bit but I never really get tired of my meals…

I was thinking the same thing!!!

and by the way, it took me a year to lose 40lbs the right way...and I know I am not going to gain it back. I was 40lbs heavier June 28, 2010. There is no quick fix.

try snacking on raw pecans/almonds/walnuts. look at the ingredients, it should say example: almonds. no salt, etc. eat part-skim string cheese and yogurt that isnt loaded down with sugar. carrots, grapes, blueberries, cantaloupe are great to keep you full. Green and orange fruits/veggies make you feel fuller. When you are…

I'm no expert, and altering dresses can be expensive, bud I'd probably get what size you are now...you never know what can happen in 1year. Worst case scenario either you have to get the dress altered because it is too big or it fits. If you buy a size too small it may not be as easy to alter. That's a tough question...I…

I used to get that all the time...are you pregnant??? HELL NO IM NOT PREGNANT IDIOT. What the heck kind of person is such a moron to judge like that. I know skinny people who are the most misearable people on this planet, wanting to make others feel their misery with them. Denise Austin has inspiration on her website about…

Hells yeah

once every saturday morning when i first get up (naked)

Sangria Wine Freezer Mix with berry wine (Gatlinburg TN-Hillside Winery's Black & Blue) Never before have I had a Wine Freezer...WOOO HOOOO!!!

OH my gosh, you have to watch the whole season 9...it was the absolute best season yet!!! The people are so sincere and like-able. (In my opinion, much better than season 10), Season 11 premiered here last week.

Oh and one more thing... Pick a "food-cutoff" time and stick to it. Mine was 7:00pm. NO FOOD after that time, period. I saw amazing results just from that alone!!

That is why I joined MFP last year. It worked for me. I was strict on my meal plan, and I did eat some of my exersize calories, but not all of them all the time. How I became sucessful was not just focusing on the calories, but the KIND of calories...calories from chocolate cake v/s calories from home-made spaghetti with 5…

I try to do it before if possible. You burn alot of calories while you sleep. You can go stronger and harder if you have re-fueled. The only problem I have is getting up in time! I have to get up at 5:00am for work if I DONT work out...so I do my workouts in the evening.

I have the same issue. I eat pretty much the same thing for breakfast and lunch every single workday, but then find mysef snacking all weekend long. My plan has been to get up on Saturday morning and decide if I am going out to eat later or what I am doing. Then I go ahead and input my food on my diary before I eat…

sometimes but not always. I mix it up

3 words...O..M..G!

I have all of those DVD's and I love them! I had been doing Cardio Max and Yoga together for 2 months straight. I did Cardio first, then Yoga. I suggest if you do two DVD's in one day, either separate them, or do Yoga right after the other one you chose. It seemed to me that I was extremely relaxed after Yoga and didnt…

My advice, no matter what you do...make sure those calories are HEALTHY calories. Dont go get a Big Mac or something just because it is high in calories.
