  • I am so squishy at the moment. Was looking good last week, but this week my remaining fat (have about 10lb to loose) is all squishy that I feel as if I have not lost anything at all. Got quite depressed last night about it. But I know it is just a stage and it will look different next week.

  • Me! 5'4 - Looking to loose about 15-20 lb. It is coming off sooo slowly (0.5lb/week). Can do with some motivation. Have lost the weight before, so know it can be done and know what I need to do. Just hard to stay on track. Luckily I feel better for every lb I loose, so that is very motivating. I tend to eat healthy without…

  • Look for thrive. It's a new algae oil that has a very high smoke point do good for roasting. It has been voted the healthiest cooking oil by American heart association. Think they sell it at Amazon or at http://www.thrivealgae.com/ This is the only oil I cook with now. I use it in dressings, marinades, roasting, stir frys…

  • Wish i could help, but I am still in the situation where I want to loose more bodyfat. I think it is slowly coming down. You do seem to work out a lot. Maybe twice on monday and wednesday is excessive. I don't think it matters to work out both morning and evening in one day. Although your afternoon workout may not be as…

    in Stand up paddling Comment by BeCali July 2011
  • Sounds like fun. Maybe similar to kayaking? Although you are probably using more leg muscles than with kayaking to maintain stability.
    in Stand up paddling Comment by BeCali July 2011
  • From my experience the body finds a natural weight where it is comfortable. For years I did absolutely nothing to watch my calories, but was always around 128. Not super skinny, but definitely not fat. I then lost some weight and got down to 122 by counting calories and watching portions. I was so happy to be that weight.…

  • I have about 10lb to go depending on what goal I stick with and am going with 1lb a week loss which puts my calorie goal at 1200. I do try to make sure that I always eat those calories and a lot of the exercise ones. I also have days now and then where I am over my calorie goal (including exercise). Surprisingly, the scale…

  • I'm in on the plans, but not sure about the food challenge. I have been tracking my sugar and am consistently over. Mostly because I eat so much fruit, I have really managed to cut down my sugar treats over the past month. How do you guys differentiate between fruit sugars and refined sugars???

Then I have to decide my July target knowing that I will have one week of vacation which will be active, but I will allow myself some treats...
