Ok my starting weight is 155.2 I can post pic up but I will retry a little later.

As a Mexican, we cook a lot of recipes with cabbage. It's good to hear all the benefits. I will continue to cook with it.

Ice cream

Wow!!!!! This seems like a very good idea!!!! I'd love too and it seems really organized. I am totally in.

I'm down. My vacation starts in 3 weeks and I need to lose weigh by August. CSUF!!!!!!

Probably 1200 cal was too little for you. I started with that amount but started feeling dizzy so I increased my cal and I lose the same Amt.

Wow! I didn't know Netflix had exercise DVD's and I didn't even think to look. Thanks for the info. I will definitely work out more at home, when I'm too lazy to go to the gym. What's your favorite?

Yesssss!!! I took classes at the gym and absolutely LOVED it!! It doesn't burn about of cal but it definitely helps tone your waistline. Other dances are better for losing weigh but belly dancing is a low impact dance to tone your abs.

Try Fiber one Brownie Bar. It's 90 cal and very good. It always satisfies my sweet tooth. I have a huge sweet tooth as well.

You are 100% right!! We are here for eating too much junk and fruit is a better alternative now.

I have lost like 8.6 lbs in 3 weeks. I am super strict, I measure everything and only drink water. I exercise 5 times a week. It is hard to keep this lifestyle but I try to remember that I want a better body. What kind of exercise do you do?

Try swimming

I have a good tip. Help out the CNAs with lifting patients and transferring or other stuff. It helps get in some exercise and burn extra calories. Also there is always tine to do more walking, especially if the unit or hospital is big. Always answer a call light dont rely on another nurse or CNA to answer it, an extra…

Well one of my fav snacks is shredded chicken mixed with cottage cheese and a little bit of mustard. Then I put it on a romaine lettuce heart and roll it up. The calories depend on portion size of chicken and cottage cheese. The ones I make are like 52 cal each. If ou don't like cottage cheese you can use yogurt instead. I…

I'm in bc this will help keep me on track. The dates are close to my mini goals.

I buy their Tofu, Vegetables, low sodium rice cakes, hOney pretzel sticks, salads, my absolute favorite item of trader joes is Pasadena salad. It's so good, but a lot of calories.

My legs and hands!!

My legs and hands!!

No, lol but other people in my yoga class have. Have you ever stolen candy from little kids? I ate my nephew's candy and said it was his brother. Lol

Ok, thank you all for answering my question.

Mmmmmm Mango vinaigrette From trader joes. It simply delicious.

I eat just the egg white. I eat like 3 for breakfast for only 51. It is low in calories and the yolk has a lot of cholesterol, plus I dont really like the yolk too much.

Is there a Zumba wii game?

Definitely get the Biggest loser one. It is an intense workout and the just dance 2 will leave you out of breath and it's fun to dance. Those are my two favorite wii games to exercise.

It's important to eat like an hour before you donate blood. Never donate blood on an empty stomach. Trust me, I did it before and fainted. Eat a lot of iron rich foods that day and lots of water and you should be fine.

I have a question. What do you mean by "bump"? Why do a lot of people write that? I'm sorry but I'm kinda new on posting stuff and do not know what it means.

I think it depends on where you carry it. Most of my fat is on face and stomach so I lose it there first, then gradually my other body parts slim down as well.

I too struggle with this a lot because I have a major sweet tooth. I usually eat 100 calorie cookies and eat them very slow to enjoy every bite. Then if that doesnt satisfy I try tl distract myself and not think of food. I go to the gym or do something. It is super hard at first but after a while all the hard work will pay…

It is a really good workout. I've done it in the pass but gave up because I was discouraged but I would love to join.

How about snacking more during the day between meals, that way you are full at night. It works good for me. I eat like 6 times a day; three meals and snacks in between and I always feel full after dinner till the next morning.
