Honestly you may need to add more calories. I had the same problem and when I started adding a few snacks between meals (eatting every 2 1/2 -4 hours) making sure they were balanced with a carb and protein I began to lose weight. Also remember that the first 2 weeks your body is adjusting and it may take a little longer to…

Hi. I'm right there with you. I kicked it into high gear the day after Christmas. After my second baby I was 230 and I'm down to 206 now. My goal is 150. There are a lot of things I have found to help both with the skin and with the lower belly. First of all make sure you are doing total body workouts not just working one…

I am doing clean eating and gluten free. Feel free to add me.

I'd love to be added by anyone. I"m 30, mom of 2, looking to add friends for acountibility

Hey John, First starting off. The BMR (basal metabolic rate) and things like that are to help you understand how many calories your body needs to function without any activity at all. That is a BARE minimum of calories you need to eat. As far as "diet" goes (lots of your questions seem to be related to that) it is all…

I'm in the same boat as you. I have a 8 month old. 70lbs to lose. Feel free to add me =0)

mine is open if you want to add me

Eating a clean diet can do wonders. Avoid fried foods, soda, alcohol, refined sugar and white breads, rice, and pasta. I also am doing a 10 day cleanse to jumpstart my body to weight loss. Make sure you are drinking a ton of water each day, you would be surprised how dehydration effects your body. Also with workouts make…

I'm always looking for friends =0) Feel free to add me

It should go back. Bloating is normal, it's just water retention and gas. During your TOM remember to drink a LOT of extra water and watch your carbs, sugar, and sodium intake and that might help

Getting back into it after having baby #2. I'm on day 2 of a 10 day cleanse but day 1 on MFP for this round. Feel free to friend me =0)

I coached quite a few people on body transformations. The biggest part is to eat clean, drink a lot of water, and make sure you are getting a lot of protein. As far as exercise, a mixture of cardio and weights are how you want to do it. Cardio is going to help burn calories and fat, and weights are going to build muscle (…

I've been MIA for a few weeks. 180 is this weeks weigh in weight

I have a 1 year old! Feel free to add me. Recently lost my last lb of "baby weight" now working on my after getting married weight =0)

Current 184 (had a rough week =0()

16-10 235-180

I know what 30DS is what is C25K?

It's hard to get started but consistency is the key. I've been there and done that. I started at 250lbs after having my baby. I'm currently holding steady at 180 and it has been a journey but the key is commitment and consistency. Do short spurts every day and you will be surprised how quickly your endurance builds. If you…

Today starting out at 181

Welcome! Feel free to add me as a friend! Encouragement and support is one of the most important aspects of losing weight!

pull your belly button to your backbone while you are doing the exercises, that is engaging your core

I was stuck at a plateau for a long time. Maybe try changing something off to get your body going.... Change the intensity of your workouts (what kind of workout do you do?) Make sure you are eating often enough (that is my problem) Eating 6 small (300cal or less) meals per day can help, but each of them needs to have…

Are you a person who can work out at home? There are SOOO many great workout videos. The 4 lbs is honestly probably your body gaining some of it's muscle back. I know it's hard but if you make exercise a habit you will begin to gain your energy back. Just a short walk around the block one time a day will do wonders over a…

I'm in, I've lost 50lbs and still have another 30 to go!:smile:
