i'm 5'2 and currently around 155 trying to get to 135-125. There's a ten pound window there because i plan to strength train and build lots of muscle, so not sure if my body will let me get to 125.... We shall see! Add me if you like...

i was just thinking something similar today...but i think my core is just a bit stronger now, thus improving my posture and making me appear slimmer. Thing is, i'm not really 'trying' to suck it in..........

There is no easy way out of being overweight. EAT LESS JUNK, GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND DO SOME KIND OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY EVERYDAY, GET MORE SLEEP, DRINK MORE WATER.

i also agree with the above..Lean Cuisine's are okay for a 'no time for anything else' meal. but if you eat them all the time, you may as well be eating junk food. The sodium content will keep your gut swollen with water retention. Also, drink insane amounts of water..........no soda, tea, gatorade, juice, etc.

what she said^^..... the best thing i ever did for myself was buy an inexpensive food scale. I was guessing at the weights of my chicken, fruit, cheese, etc and i was WAY OFF. The recipe calculator is fun and easy to use, and you can store your 'meal' for later reference if you plan to eat it often. One other tip, is that…

i used to H.A.T.E. the treadmill and elliptical machines.........UNTIL i introduced music into the equation (in the form of a used ipod that my son gave to me). Now, i find myself looking forward to a quick session, just so i can rock out and get away from life for awhile. Sometimes, i still dread the cardio part (i LOVE…

I asked this question recently...The response i got from the more experienced folks: It is MUCH better to do a full-body workout 3x per week instead of splitting it up into upper/lower body. This is what i'm doing today (i have 30 minutes as well): 3 sets of 8 reps of each of the following: chest press, bent over rows,…

FANTASTIC JOB!!!! way to go...!!

i try to tap my feet when i'm sitting at my desk.....and contract my abs while driving...i think it helps, but i wouldn't log any of this. Just bonus movements... google NEAT (Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis)

change something up....ANYTHING... even if it's a small change.. and flood yourself with water (if you're not already)... ;0)

guilty... ;0)

BAHAHAAAAHAHAHAAAA!!!! i may have been seen glancing to my left or right, as if someone could hear the music coming out of my headphones.....

i exercise 3-5x per week and only eat back about half of my exercise calories.... and i agree with the statement of not losing 2lbs a week I did at first, but it dropped off to about 1 lb. per week (and that's if i'm behaving!!) Just try SOMETHING different...anything. Start fidgeting more. Do 20 jumping jacks after every…

EYE OF THE TIGER.....lol!!!!!!!!! shhhhh!

if they're tiny, they can't possibly have that many calories....i'd say you're good...

I haven't looked at your diary, but are you eating enough? I'm not sure what a swai fillet is (fish??)....but everything else looks pretty healthy. Only thing i would say to switch is the chicken thigh....much less fat in a breast.

STUNNING.... nuff said...

wow, my feet are like twice as big as yours......;.

good luck! Anything that tastes good (to me) has one or the other. so what i do is put my dressing on the side, and i dip my fork in the dressing before stabbing a bit of salad. You wouldn't believe how much LESS dressing you use, and don't miss the taste!!

I don't have any pics to post, but i'm 5'2 and i have lost 11 pounds since August 16th. I've fallen off the wagon at least twice. But when i stay under calories AND exercise 3-5x per week, i can see and FEEL results. I'm okay with taking it slow because i think the results will be better that way. Last December i weighed…

FANTASTIC!! Congrats to you..........and i can't wait until I CAN SAY THAT!!!!

Also, i am a fan of grilling an entire bag of frozen chicken breasts and using them all week long in salads, sandwiches, and wraps!
