I do the 15 min ab routine and I love it! So good and its over so fast!

Try some hummus or tzatiki and a few veggies like carrots, cucumbers, peppers and mushrooms,

I have heard that once you lose 10 pounds, MFP asks if you would like to adjust your caloric intake. I dont know for sure because I haven't gotten there yet!

I love my fruit! I think it varies for everybody, but for me, having some honeydew or grapes helps my sugar cravings.

Make a lot of salads and have all your veggies pre-cut. I cut up my broccoli and cauliflower right after I get home from the store and I keep it in large zip-lock bags. It seems to keep longer too. Also, I use salsa for salad dressing as it has 10 calories per 2tbsp. Much more tasty! Just take it one day at a time and dont…

Awesome! I have Jackie Warners Total body workout and I love it!

Your body NEEDS to rest so your muscles can rebuild themselves more effectively. When you rest, your body has time to rebuild that lean muscle, which will help you burn fat faster.

I've noticed this too. Good to share the word!

Awesome! Im 2 pounds heavier than you and I sure as heck dont look like you! I've also had two kids so I have some extra mushy tummy going on. Keep it up!

Check out your libraries DVD section for workout videos.

I know how you feel. I have 2 feet of snow in my yard and its depressing. But keep exercising because it'll help you feel better and on the good days, get outside and go for a walk!

I eat mine plain with soda crackers. Dip those crackers in and yummy!

I finally figured it out too and I am glad I did! I eat my workout calories and I've already lost 1 pound and I haven't even been on this site a week!

I wonder the same thing myself but I think the point behind it is if you are only eating 1200 calories a day, then you burn 600 in a workout, you are in theory only giving your body 600 calories to live off. I find it hard sometimes too, and confusing, but I think you just have to go with what is best for you and how you…

I hear ya! I've been stuck at 165 for the past month, and I have been exercising since boxing day and making a better effort at eating better but nothing is moving yet. I guess all we can do is just stick to it and hopefully things will change soon. Good luck!

I started at the same weight as you, exactly one year ago! Try going to your library and see if they have any workout DVDs. Thats what I did to start and it was great! It was a great way to save money and you get a nice variety of workouts to do in the privacy of your home. Also, just being aware of what you are eating…

I have a variety of videos but my favorite are The Firm (awesome for integrated weight loss) and Denise Austin. Both very good!
