I think working with a new dr is a good start. We have to work on our health inside and out. Hopefully by focusing on nutrition and doing small exerciese you will be able to lose weight and eventually be able to do more cardio specific exerciese. REmember it is one day at a time and conquering the day at hand is the most…

One thing I like to do when I can't think of something else is that I: Preheat my oven to 350 Place chicken breasts in a 9x13 glas or metal pan. Sprinkle chicken breasts with garlic powder (not garlic salt), Onion Powder and a little black pepper Add the juice of one lemon or about 1/4 cup of lemon juice Add water to the…

When I don't know what else to do I bake my chicken breasts with Garlic powder, onion powder, juice of half a lemon, a 1/4 cup of dry white wine and 1/2 cup water. Throw in the over at 350 for 30 to 45 min or until done.

Welcome to Onderland!! Keep up the hard work!! You are doing amazing!!

Looking through your diary I definately agree with the fruits and veggies. Make sure you are adding protein outside of just soy such as nuts and beans and lentils. I am wondering if you might be sensitive to soy products? The other thing is you are higher in carbs. Just some things to think about.

I just completed Week 2 exercise 2 on my lunch break today. I ended up restarting because I broke my toe right after completing week 1.

I worked my way up to 8 so my body is used to it. Those who are not used to lots of water don't want to hydrate too high at first I agree.

It is 12:30 and i am almost at 6 glasses. I will go workout and will be close to 10 before 5 then probably another 3-5 glasses after. Hydration makes a happy body.

I second the nuts and avacados.

Fiber is one of the few things that it is ok to go over on. Fiber in the typical diet is extremely low and fiber is something that the body uses to bind toxins for elemenation from the body.

I use a free app called My tracks. It tracks the distance and speed I am going when out walking.

Vitamin C is a water soluble vitamin so if you go over it basically your body expels it as waste. You don't need to worry about going over on it if you are eating right.

I don't know which is better but I know I prefer running outside because I can't run on a treadmill safely.

If I am not active I feel like some part of the day is missing. I at minimal must be walking around and moving doing something. It is funny because I usually take sunday off from my hard core workouts but I am still running around like a crazy woman because I can't sit still.

Great job!! your work is really amazing!!

Started wanting to loose at least 65 pounds now I am closer to a minimum of 45 but would love to loose 55 pounds. For me there has been two keys to how far I have come and how far I will go. Planning is my number one key. If you don't plan then it is harder to stay on track. Number 2 has been building friends within this…

For ladies who are a dd or larger I myself am a GG I buy my bras on www.bravissimo.com they are a great site and you can get cute bras and also very supportive sports bras.

I wear two no matter what I do. I usually do an underwire one with a non underwire over top. It really really does help.

Your calories are based on your height/weight/gender/age. Some people are higher or lower than you based on their current activity level and how much they have to loose. I started out at 1600 calories and am now down to 1530 as you loose the amount you need to consumer does go lower. I would say remain where you are at.

That is worth a celebration dance!! great job!!

Congratulations on your bundle of joy!! You have an amazing mindset on how to tackle it. The little goals have really helped me along the way. I have bigger goals and they just keep coming and coming. As you have already stated planning is key. If you are able to plan it makes the action that much easier. I do not have any…

This is not small to me. When you have a Food NSV that is always a big one. You got two here. Great job!!
