Jordan's skinny syrups and walden farms are good

You.lvcould try juicing or blending/pureeing veggies and then freezing in ice cube trays and adding them to dishes a cube at a time ... Frozen vegetables are easier to buy and try a little at a time without them going bad.

I looked it up and found anywhere from 5.5 to 7.1g carbs for a medium pepper. Just Google "bell pepper carbs usda" and then choose a different entry from the database.

I usually alternate an egg breakfast and a greek yogurt breakfast. 1 jumbo egg with 3tbs egg white on a joseph's pita(lower carb w/protein), a smear of avocado and a sprinkle of bagel seasoning. Sometimes I skip the pita and add a chicken or turkey sausage link with cheese instead of avocado Vanilla Greek yogurt with…

I like to run and would like to do it more. I used to run 3 miles 2x/wk and a longer 6ish on Sunday. I'm down to 1 shorter and 1 longer run per week. It's hot and humid and I also strength train at the gym 2 days. I tried running my long run(7 miles) last Sunday and then 3 Monday and my knees were complaining and I was…

Buy in bulk when possible. Rice, beans, lentils are all pretty budget friendly. Shop produce in season and on sale. You can cook up a pot of dry beans and then freeze in portions for later. Meat is usually cheaper when purchased as a "family" or "value" pack. Once again, portion and freeze. Buy frozen fruits and vegetables…

I use google fit on my phone

So, I can still not insert images in threads...lame. I lifted today and went lighter on squats but heavier on bench. Squats were great at 130lbs 5x5, bench was solid at 100lbs 5x5. My body was not happy with hex bar deadlifts. My upper and lower back are uncomfortable tonight.

Light n fit greek yogurt comes in fruit or vanilla flavors and is not bitter, no sugar added

Greek yogurt and fruit or eggs and avocado with bagel seasoning...those are my alternate breakfasts unless I want oatmeal in the winter. Or an rxbar...

But you also have to do what works for you. I do my own program and listen to my body. I know at some point, progression will be slow to none and might even go backwards. I mean, we aren't getting any younger. I look at it similarly to running. At some point, I'm not going to want to run farther or faster. Maintenance is…

How much can you safely lift now?

I think you just have to be smart about it and listen to your body. Learn to do the movements properly and slowly progress. At some point you will plateau...and then it's time to reassess how to move forward. But it takes a while and effort to get there. Every movement we do involves risk, but we move anyway. Driving a car…

It won't let you close it under 1200 calories because it is not considered healthy. How many calories are you eating a day? How much weight are you losing per week?

I use Earfun Free. I think the minis. They are available on Amazon.

I almost picked 2, but went with 3. I do 2 days in the gym "heavy" and then 1 day with dumbbells or bodyweight.

I'm 5'3" and lose under 1600. I probably eat even more. I'm very active. I just don't log perfectly.

Just eat more? Calorie dense foods, like nut butter, trail mix, full fat meat and dairy, avocado, oils added to what you already eat.

My faves are quest, quest crunch, pure protein salted caramel, and rxbars. Not a bar, but a good protein snack are Kay's naturals.

I'd need help finding dress pants if I ever needed to wear them. I get away with stretch jeans, joggers, etc at work. I found some garment dyed pants at old navy with elastic waist that work. To gain weight, eat more. Perhaps ice cream and peanut butter? Tortillas with cheese and bacon? Butter or whipped cream on…

Eat more veggies and replace refined carbs with a high fiber option. Ex: I eat joseph's pita bread instead of bread or tortillas and it has 6g protein and 4g fiber.

Good luck!

Youtube? I do cardio daily with a youtube workout. I rarely have to repeat. What kind of workouts do you like? (Walking,dance, kickboxing, step, etc)

You get to eat back your exercise calories. Just try to pick reasonable estimates so that you don't go over.

Yeppers!

For salad, a cup is a volume measurement(use a measuring cup) or it gives the serving in grams(weigh grams on a scale).

I'm in maintenance as well! I workout daily and lift weights/ strength train 2- 3x/wk
