Try adding peanut butter, nuts and cheese. Eat full fat yogurt instead of light. I had to increase my calories to keep losing, and it helped. If increasing the amought of food is hard just try and find things that are higher in calories.

I love this idea!

I would if I had room in the freezer. My Aunt does this, and she loves it!

I'm still trying to decide but I like this ^^ I might have to borrow your idea.

Such a great topic! I'm printing these out and plastering the wall next to my treadmill and weight bench! Thanks!!!

I just picked up some apples yesterday, I'll be making this tonight! Thanks!:happy:

If its just to cook your eggs invest in a good no stick coated pan. I've been able to stop using pam or butter all together.

I love sweets! Lately I've been hooked on Quaker Chewy granola bars the low fat ones are only 90 calories. The oatmeal rasin tastes like a cookie.

Try using a cup with a straw. I keep one at my desk all day and most days I end up drinking 75 to 100oz of water. Just stick with it, it'll get easier as your body adjusts.

Bump!!

You look amazing! My motivation for getting in shape is so that I can have a healthy pregnancy in the near future. You're pictures have given me extra motivation. Thanks for posting.

I'm going away in July and I've aready picked out my suit, a size smaller then I am now. Its my motivation! :wink:

Bump!

For a mexican flavor I use cumin, chili powder, and cayanne. I also like to add some fresh garlic. But if you're looking for low soduim options I would definately stick with individual spices and stay away from spice blends. When I want to add some flavor to something I'll sniff the spices and see what smells best with…

Bump!

I say go for it! If you can find a job and make a living doing something that you enjoy so much, the rest will work it self out. Just keep little reminders of your fitness goals around to help keep you on track. If working in a bakery is what you realy want, go for it! :wink:

I've got around 10lbs to go and my bikini is all ready for this summer! I've even planned a trip so I can show it off. :happy:

Bump!

Right now its Smart Pop kettle corn, its a little bit of sweet and a littel bit of salty all in one, and only 100 cal a bag! But if I'm at home I'll make the 3 2 1 cake for a sweet treat. http://cake.betterrecipes.com/3-2-1-cake.html

This ^^^ IMO the health benefits for you and your baby will be worth the delayed weight loss, if its is delayed at all. I know moms who gained weight after the weaned. Each body is different. Good Luck! :smile:

I use stevia or splenda, the other things like aspertame triger my migranes, so I love splenda. I get organic stevia at Trader Joes, it comes in a bottle like a spice bottle with a little scoop in it, one scoop is more then enough for my coffee and the bottle lasts a long time. IMO try what ever you think will work the…

I did this when my weight loss stalled, I changed my setting from 1lb a week to 1/2 and did that for 2 months. My weight went up at first (but this was over the holidays); but i sterted losing again and went back to my 1lb a week setting. Its definately worth a try. If nothing else you get to treat your self to an extra…

:smile: Yummy! Thanks for sharing

Can't wait to try this thanks!

I also sit behind a desk 8 hours a day. I got a pedometer to see how much I was actually walking and some days I wasn't even getting to 2,000 steps. That was definately an eye opener. I need to more more during the day or all the diet changes in the world won't help me be healthy.

I finally got some boobs when I put the weight on. I'd rather loose my butt; its huge! :blushing:

Ben and Jerry's Half Baked icecream, haven't had it in years its just to dangerious. :love:

Do you have a grill? If not this might be a good time to invest in one with a side burner. I use my grill more then my oven when it comes to my meat. You can even do veggies in foil packets on the grill.

This sounds perfect! I'm keeping it for my birthday! Thanks for posting!

Bump!
