Plain greek yogurt with 2 Tablespoons Polaner Sugarfree with fiber raspberry jam....so good = 100 calories and is high in protein so it helps with cravings. Also Think Thin Protein bars that are sugar free= 230 calories with 20g protein. Great after a work out.

Reduce your sodium intake to 1500mg, which is a very low salt diet...this helped me tremendously to stop water fluctuations.

I do this too.

I used to be hungry all the time. Now I eat protein with every meal and eat 4 to 5 times a day, spreading out calories. I am never hungry between meals.

I was too, until I went to the mall, where you can look through the window at who is there....I realized, most of the people exercising are all there for the same reason. And I thought Wow they're going after what they want, they're changing their lives. On my way home I really didn't remember individuals, just that I was…

I used to never be satisfied and always felt hungry until I added more protein to meals and snacks..Now I'm rarely hungry.

I could be the lady 2 machines down. I could only do 5 minutes at first. Now I can complete the weight loss program, which is 30 minutes. I am determined to conquer this machine. Just want you to know I appreciate your post...Thanks for the encouragement. So you didn't "miss" the lady....she's right here . Im 52 and a…

wow! You give me hope that I can do it too!

Im still over weight, but I feel so much better since I started exercising and monitoring not only how many calories I eat, but eating healthy calories, The weight is slowly coming off. I actually eat more now than before and feel fuller,,,less calories, but more food,,who would've figured, Welcome..we're all in this…

I eat most of them back, I wasn't losing for a month...it was suggested to eat them back and try to eat some of them as protein. I started losing, Im new to this, but its helped me, Sometimes Im short a 100 or so, but I give myself some flexability.

I hate this saying. I also hate "Thats so ghetto", and when people reply "whatever" to everything they don't have an honest response too.

Your electrolytes could also be out of balance,,,see the doc.

You should talk to your doctor...You may be diabetic.

Try Dannon Plain Greek Yogurt with Polaner Sugar Free Raspberry or Strawberry Jam and a few Blueberries Sprinkled In....I love it and its only about 125 calories.

Save 100 calories...eat half a 0 sugar protein bar, like "Think Thin Chocolate Fudge". It has 20g of protein in each bar, so half would give you 10g. Drink a cup of water with it. The protein may help the cravings. You can find these bars at many grocery stores.

Thank you so much!

So how do you do It?

MochaMixAZ...You are my new super hero! You are truely beautiful and what an inspiration. I pray I can do what you've done. I plan to give it my all.

Wow..I hope I can do what you've done. I have 80 - 90 to lose. You really impressed me to press on. Thanks for showing your pictures.

By HR I mean Heart rate.

Eating protein with a small amount of carbohydrates helped me curb my cravings for sweets. Protein helps you digest sugars slower , so you don't have the spike of sugars and then crave more. Greek yogurt is a good snack.

Sorry to hear of your financial losses and weight gain. I think you need to give yourself a fresh start. The old life has passed and a new life is about to emerge. Everything is yours for the taking. Just step forward into a new way of living and don't look back ... you can do it and you have all the rest of us to cheer…

I hope I can do what you've done....you have definitely made a difference and inspire us all!

I will be praying.
