Start weight =175lbs

Okay, I have been AWOL for a month because we got a dog who ate our laptop and my treadmill went up in smoke! So the good news is I am walking the dog but I don't think I'm getting the same kind of workout as I would running on the treadmill. Add in thanksgiving and I have gained about 5 lbs I think. I am desperate to get…

Greek Yogurt...absolutely!! I have a drip of honey and a couple tbsps cranberry trail mix ,....really filling! And fat free!

Hi sugarlove, I think we all go through the hunger pangs at the beginning but over a week maybe you'll notice a difference. It is the portion control which got to me, or lack of. Really monitoring what you eat in the food diary is great. Once I started really paying attention to what i ate I realised that I was probably…

I'm 34, 5'8" and currently 176lbs. I have been doing this for 3 weeks now and lost 14lbs which is great but I'm thinking I might get burned out so I really need this site to keep me motivated. have been working out 6 days a week, stopped drinking (the hardest part!!) and eating veggies, veggies and more veggies.

Nothing lost on the butt quite naturally!! But very motivating none the less cos i didn't lose weight but did lose…

Hi everyone I found a great website called recipezaar.com. They list the nutritional value of whatever dish you are preparing. You can also "sift" ingredients so if you have 300 cals and 10 gr fat left over for the day for example, they'll give you suggestions. it's really cool and I've made a really interesting array of…

I'm losing if for myself and my family. I have a hubby and 2 young daughters (3,6). 2 weeks ago we were at the ER b/c hubby thought he was having a heartattack. It was a real wake up call . He quit smoking, drinking, eating salt and all that good stuff!!! we started working out and have had a real llifestyle change in just…

Hi everyone, I too have lost 10lbs in the first 2 weeks and I feel great!! I went from being a complete couch potato slob to working out 7 days a week. I have a range of clothing from size 8 though 16 and I suddenly realized all my "fat clothes" no longer fit me!! Nothing worse to me than the prospect of shopping for even…
