Hi there...I find when I hit the weights prior to any aerobic exercise I seem to burn more at rest. Just a personal observation. Oh and I love Zumba. So far, I've lost a little over 26 lbs. since Jan 24.

Thanks for sharing! Just shared with my friends and family.

WooHoo! Nice work and what an accomplishment!

Hi there! Sorry to hear about your foot! When I hurt my ankle...and knee for during another incident, I went swimming. If you have access to a pool, swimming is great exercise.

I'm averaging about 2lbs. a week. I completely revamped my eatting schedule, eatting 6 small meals a day. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner are usually between 300-500 calories and my am and early pm/late pm snacks are usually 100-300 calories. I make sure to get 3 servings of veggies a day somewhere in there. Fruits are bonus.…

Just the kind of inspiration I need! I've got 50 lbs. to go. Can't wait to be say I'm ready to go another 5 ;) Congrats! All the hard work paid off!

I feel your pain! I use to drop weight fairly quickly too but there are a lot of factors that play into how you lose weight now (age, salt intake, muscle mass, etc.) You mentioned that you've never been at your current weight, and nor have I. It took a while for you to get up to where you are now and it will take some time…

First of all, congratulations for wanting to make a permanent change and reaching out for help! My advise, forget about the past and just look forward! Let your inspirations be your drivers. Some of the fine tunings I've done just this year as of Jan. 25 was to put myself first. I'm a mommy of 2 and have always put myself…

I just started eating every 2-3 hours since Jan 25 and have lost 9 lbs. This was per the advise of my nutritionist. I'm meeting with her for an hour on Thursday because I just shared MFP with her and she noticed that I'm consuming too much sugars. In spite of that, I've lost 9 lbs. eatting 5-6 times every 2-3 hours and…

I usually gain anywhere from 2-5 lbs.

I'm about to start week 3 of my healthy way of living and I noticed just yesterday that things that tasted just fine to me is now way to salty. I think it may have to do with the fact that I'm eatting more veggies and no prepackaged foods. Oh and I'm drinking more water. I use to have maybe 1 glass a day and I'm at 6-8…

Hang in there! The important thing is that you realize this and can get back on track. I've made similar mistakes and felt like throwing in the towel. Think about your ultimate goal and well...let the past be the past and move on. You can do this! You are in control! Nadine
