thanks a lot this did help! :)

i think i already eat a lot of protein, i eat chicken pretty much every night for dinner and sometimes lunch too so I think I'm ok in the protein area

ah thanks for the tips! i dont have much to lose probably about 20-30lbs and ill be at a healthy weight but Ill try this! :)

ah i see, so to gain muscle should I eat more first and then eat less?

ah i see, do u know if it the same for gaining muscle? does it matter what u eat when trying to gain muscle?

Thanks for all your replies it makes me feel better. Congrats to you all who were able to get rid of them at least a little bit. I think I'll start doing more squats and lunges! :)

that will explain why my weight on the scale isnt going down but thats ok as long as im strong and toned!!

thanks!! :) haha you're right its not easy after an hour of pilates im drenched in sweat but i love it! :)

so the more muscles i build the more calories im burning right?

hahah thats true but after awhile your body gets used to it cause your using more of your ab strength and not putting so much strain on your neck, and it works on arms and legs too, i love how toned im getting from it i just gotta lose the fat now lol

ah i usually walk to work so i guess i already got that in lol and ive had some pretty intense pilates sessions so i guess thats good too Thanks!

lol thanks!

really? how is that? lol never heard anyone say that before haha

sorry this might sound dumb but whats CICO?

can you explain what im misinformed on?

nice and congratz on your 22lbs! so far I do love her videos and I really hope I can lose weight doing her calendars alone cause after doing her workouts I dont think I can do more cardio after LOL

thank you for all the responses! I honestly didnt think it was possible to lose weight while drinking diet soda LOL I'm glad to know that at least I dont have to cut it out completely! :smile:

cause i hear horror stories how the sodium or the aspartame in it can make your body cling to fat lol

oh I didnt know you could do it that way, I thought you had to eat nothing but veggies, fruits, and lean meats

oh i see so it only matters if you burn more then you eat? right?

but i thought a calories isnt just a calorie? like if you only eat 200 calories in lets say french fries and 200 calories in veggies, you will lose weight witht he veggies cause the calories in the fries are bad and make you gain weight

This is really helpful! Thank you!!

may i ask how do you lose weight without eating clean?? Research I've done from trainers and youtube videos etc. they all say you will not lose weight unless you eat clean.

um what?? lol

Is regular milk considered ''unclean''? or processed? I'm trying to go for a clean diet overall

Some people told me that regular dairy milk is high in fat and calories so if I substitute milk with soy or coconut milk instead they say I'm saving my calories and my fat content

do you know any good hiit home workout videos? I would love to try that!

will lifting heavy cause me to look bulky?

haha thanks after working out for awhile I'm slowly gaining confident of my body it just my thighs are stubborn lol.

haha not a bad idea except I dont know how to roller skate lol! I've tried once and that was some bad experience! LOL
