I do Leslie Sansone's Walk at Home DVDs. I also do Biggest Loser Boot Camp, and No More Trouble Zones by Jillian Michaels. I just got the Just Dance 2 for the Wii and sweated my hiney off doing that!

4 chicken or boneless pork chops...a big jar of fire roasted tomatoes, chopped onion, sliced mushrooms, dry italian dressing mix (optional). It. makes like a chicken or pork stew. It's just something I threw together one day when I had nothing planned ...turned out pretty decent! Chicken, frozen mixed veggies, 99% fat free…

I need that mentatlity! ....guilt is the worst feeling in the world. I just got on the scale and I'm now up 3 pounds. No more eating out for me!!!

Its basically pureed chick peas...mixed with various flavors, etc. I personally hate it, but I think I am in the minority. I think tons of people really love it.

I totally feel guilty! Three days ago I had sushi and miso soup. I told myself that would be my weekly treat. The next day, I went out and got a grilled chicken sandwich with mushrooms nad melted swiss with sweet potato fries and then yesterday I had chinese!!!! SUPER GUILTY NOW.....But, I'm not gonna beat myself up. Today…

I love the single serving skinny cow icecreams...dulce de leche and caramel cone are my fave. strawberry cheesecake and cookies and cream and double fudge brownie are also awesome.YUM

I love cottage cheese...but, I do get the 1% kind, not the fat free. And if I am not wanting it to be sweet with like peaches or pineapple with it, I just mix it with some pepper. I guess I'm happy that I love cottage cheese....but, I think I'm the only person on the face of the earth that HATES hummus! LOL.

I was thinking of doing a chicken cordon bleu with the laughing cow cheese....now I think I will since it's getting such good reviews for meals! :)

I have the same problem...I have had 2 c-sections and I can't get rid of the belly...I call it my kangaroo pouch. Its horrible! I can't ever feel my belly button pushing in either... Any exercise ideas would be great. :)

I would say veggie kabobs, fruit salad, roasted corn on the cob....stuffed cherry tomatoes with light cream cheese, green onions and cooked, diced shrimp.

Great job! Big difference and I bet you feel fantastic!!! :)

I just got on the scale and it says I've gained 2.5 lbs...and I work out 7 days a week and eat 1200 calories, drink plenty of water. We can't give up though...just keep at it. I don't think you are doing anything wrong...everyone's body reacts differently and loses weight at different rates.

yes, that did help...and apparently, i've been doing it all wrong! :( I've been netting like 500-700 a day. YIKES. But, I don't feel hungry. I drink so much water, that I fill full most of the time...okay, well at least I know now what I need to do correctly. Thanks so much!

This may be a stupid question...but, if I consumed 1600 calories, but burned over 800...it says I still have 400 and some off calories left. Does my NET calories need to equal 1200?? the 1600 doesn't matter?? I'm confused....

As long as it's once a week and not a daily habit, you are fine. I think it's important to treat yourself everyonce in a while.

SWEET!!! I have high cholesterol, and I'm hoping to see that those numbers have dropped some the next time I get it checked. What you just listed are all the reasons to be in this for the long haul. Congrats!

I have lost 13 and can't see it at all either....hoping 15-20 will be the magic number. YOU LOOK GREAT!!!

I also listen to rock music, but for working out I find dance music is easier to get going with (and to keep a good rythym to) 1. Oh My God- Usher 2. Just Dance- Lady Gaga 3. Crash- Gwen Stefani 4. Paralyzer- Finger Eleven 5. Carryout- Timbaland w/ Justin Timberlake

pop chips are great too!

LOVE THOSE NAMES!

I have such a sweet tooth, I think I'd end up eating the whole batch. :(

I love Leslie and her dvd's. I have found that these are the exercises that I enjoy doing the most, and that I feel the best after doing. I do the elliptical and circuit training too, but I always find myself going back to the walking dvd's, because I feel like I get more out of those, as a whole workout. I love love love…

tonight I treated myself to sushi. One alaska roll (smoked salmon, cucumber and avocado) with a small bowl of miso soup and lots of water. Sooo goood.

You can boil and mash and add a little fat free or low fat sour cream to them instead of butter. add some dill to that, or other herbs and it's a good mashed potato. You can also make mashed bauliflower. Roast your cauliflower with a little evoo and salt and pepper. blend with some skim milk or fat free sour cream. season…

YUM! Can't wait tmake this. You put uncooked noodles in, right? I assume they cook with the liquid...

I'm usually over my sugar limit by noon...and it's all from fruits. I don't worry about it if it's from fruit, natural sugars. If it's from processed foods, sodas, etc...that is what I watch.

I agree that weating a shirt/shorts over a suit would be more comforting. I know I do that when I go in the water, as I do not feel comfortable in a bathing suit either. But, just think of how special it will be for the both of you...she will love spending that time with you and you will always have those memories...and in…

Or, you can just get in the pool with her. To hell with what others think, or what you think. You are doing your daughter good by being in there with her...and it could be fun for you too...swimming is great exercise! I know it's easier said than done...but, be proud of who you are, what you are doing for your health and…
