  • I not a breakfast eater either and I hear all the time that I need to break the fast with breakfast but I just dnt like eating in morning. But what I do sometimes is sip coffee with heavy cream and stevia or lemon water. I usually have something small like a piece of fruit around 11. I've read reports that it is ok to fast…
  • i found a eating plan that gave great guidelines that help me get the amount of fiber and protein i'm trying to achieve. So i make my meals fit close to the guidelines: B: 300 cal 8 g fiber 20 g protein S: 150 cal 2 g fiber 15 g protein L: 300 cal 8 g fiber 20 g protein D: 400 cal 8 g fiber 20 g protein S:150 cal 2 g fiber…
  • I've been on this journey for a long time. I am finally at the point where i had that light bulb moment. Since you're motivation is high at the beginning i would encourage you to take full advantage of it. Exercise (couch to 5K may a good place to start). Eat clean. Try to eliminate some of that processed stuff. A little…
  • i just started running too. I talked to someone in a run clinic and was told that the pain was probably due to the way i landed. WHen you are running the pull should be felt in ur calves not the front of ur legs. So for me that requires me to land on the front of my feet (as if i was walking on my toes) so whenever i run…
  • The plan you listed is from nowloss.com. The 1200 calories allowed does not include the calories you get from the fruits and vegetables. And I did the plan for 4 weeks. At the same time I cut out meat. My exercise consisted of 3 days of high interval training plus 2 days of 30-40 min slow running (about 13MPH pace). I ate…
  • I'm not an expert but i understand the struggle. I want to applaud you on trying something new when you got stuck. I dont know if you should up your calories or lower them. I first thought dropping down to 1200 a couple of days a week will help if you continued on the 1400 path. I came across this site that i love. He…
  • I loved the old WW format. The new one is not for me. But in the past when i followed the plan and attended the meetings i would lose. But when i got stuck at a weight they couldnt help me figure out why so i would quit. Also, there is no set menu plan. Sometimes that can be dangerous too, because when everything is…
  • JCP is a great place to start. They have lots of brands and usually have really good prices. I have gotten my husband jackets for $15 and the dress pants are usually $20. Get a dark suit (blue, blk, gray) Good Luck. This as nothing to do with suits...but dont know if you know that the federal governemt has training plans…
  • Hi everyone. I would love to join the challenge. CW: 238 GW: 218
  • Ok I’m checking in early because tomorrow is Father's day and my hubby wants to spend it on Riverstreet in Savannah GA. If anyone is familiar with the area, you know the temptations that are available. Pray for my strength. Today the scale read 231.6 which is 5.4 less than my last weigh in. April 10th: 244 April 24th: 244…
  • OMG! seems like yesterday i was posting that i just beat the 240's. Got on the scale this morn and it read 233.8. 4 more pounds and i'm going to be in the 20's! So happy I must thank yall. Knowing that i have to post my weight makes me work harder. So thank you for being my motivation.
  • Ok. 1 week left before next weigh in,. Good luck. I am currently 1 lb above last weigh in, but I am on track and should be under by the 19th. Good luck to everyone and stay strong.
  • Ok. I'm back from vacation, but I want to reframe from posting a weight until the next weigh in. I forgot what exercise, water, and counting calories were while on vacation. (I may have forgot, but the scale didn't) But i'm still motivated so thats good. Good luck everyone with the rest of your week.
  • It's hump day, but don't let that derail your plans of working on your humps. I see y'all as my weight loss buddies and this quote made me think of y'all: Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter. So good travels to everyone!
  • I understand the frustration. I've been eating good and the scale has been dropping. Ate good yesterday and the scale went up over a pound. WTF! I'm going to stay on track and maybe chalk this up to "i feel a cramp coming on" but still WTF!
  • Reference to : I love your spirit Mswestmoreland......... can i ask you how you are doing with the no bread, no sugar thing? Are you having bad cravings or anything. i am debating doing it for a week and seeing how I feel. The no bread and sweets is going great for me. I've being doing it for a couple of weeks and lost…
  • When you weighed on the scales in the store, were they still in package? If so that can be the result of some of the weight, because its not even. Also, were you wearing more clothes than you usually weigh in and was in later in the day. Anything can be the result of the weight difference. I would get the scale home and…
  • Ok. woke up this morning at 237. That's 4 lbs since last weigh in. I will be on vacation through June 19. No internet where I'm going. So I may miss posting my weights for the 5th. But i will keep track and post. I am not planning on gaining in this trip, wish me luck! About a week ago I got this short hair cut that I was…
  • Thank you thank you thank you :)
  • I woke up this morning and the scale read 239.8. So I wanted to take this time and say bye the the 240's. They were like a bad boyfriend that I allowed to stick around for too long. I'm so happy to see you go. 220's watch out, because here I come. Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Weight Loss Tools
  • Ok. today is the first day of me taking extreme measures. I'm following the emergency plan found on the nowloss.com website. There are several emergency and permanent plans listed, byt i'm following the one titled 20 lbs in 3-4 weeks. I love the site but haven't tried any of his suggestions. This will be my first time.…
  • In reference to Shellypoo's messge: I'm about to go to extreme measures now. No bread and little to no white sugar until further notice. I went out of town and really overdid it! I picked up a pound somewhere along the way from last Sunday to today. I am not happy! I'm with you on the giving up the bread and the sugar. I…
