This method might work better for me. I am reallllly bad with trying to eat breakfast. I am not hungry when I get up, at all.

3 meals, a snack (usually fruit), and desert of some kind even if it's just an apple baked with some cinnamon on it. I tried breaking it up into smaller meals when my husband was away at a school for his job. It didn't work very well, either I had too many calories in the meals or I was hungry and unfulfilled. That was…

Anyone can feel free to add me. I am here daily and leave my diary open, the good the bad and the lessons learned ;)

Don't love them or hate them for location...Do not like a tag being put on a person because they have a tattoo in a specific spot. I know two people who had never heard that terminology used before for that area and they have tattoos there. They get quite angry when their tattoo art is termed "tramp stamp"

Anyone can add me, here every day ;)

All of that and... Sunrise and Sunset beach runs/walks

Welcome back!

See the way I have always understood it is that if your exercise is not worked into your TDEE then just the calorie deficit alone makes you lose the weight. But if you are burning calories you would need to eat them back or you would go over a 300 cal deficit. Now if you have your exercise worked into your TDEE then no,…

You look amazing and I agree about the packaged foods!

Thanks everyone! The recipes, ideas and advice are really helpful. I am trying to buy much less packaged food. I know low cal pizza is a contradiction in terms but it's worth a try at finding the lowest calories :)

Yeah that is what we do, lots of veggies and the cheese and sauce we go light on. But crust has been an issue. I will look into both of those ideas, thank you very much!

1. Pizza 2. Hot Rolls with Cinnamon butter from Texas Steakhouse 3. Fried Pickles and whatever the sauce is that comes with them at Cheeseburger In Paradise 4. Caramel Milky Ways

I want your recipe.....drooling

You are beautiful! So pretty, and a Mom!! The people in your life should be supportive, uplifting and positive. Why are they speaking to you that way? Even if you are overweight their words should be filled with love and encouragement. You have to be proud of the accomplishments, you gave birth to a beautiful baby, you ate…

Awesome job! I love that DVD, all her DVD's

Bump

Nice work! I bet you feel amazing! You should be very proud of your accomplishments!

To be honest the only thing that has ever bothered me at gyms has been the staff. I tend to get into a "zone" and focus very hard and tune everything out and when staff try and talk to me, it throws me off and is really distracting. Others I pay no attention to. So I look for gyms where the staff speaks to you when you…

Amazing, wonderful, beautiful and truly inspirational!

Mmmm will be trying this next week! Thanks for the post!

Agreed!

I quit smoking and gained weight too, at first, because I snacked a lot. Here are some of the things I did when a craving for a cigarette hit... - Exercise (even if it was just going for a walk - Get out of the house, a change in environment distracts you - Change whatever you are doing at that moment to something else. If…

Welcome Debbie! Taking charge of your health is a great step and you will realize taking charge can lead to improvements in everything you do! Enjoy your journey and do not get discouraged just get back on track when you slip.

You know, the body gets used to things. Like you used to eat a lot more, your body was used to that too and gave you only subtle signs. Perhaps not losing any weight is a subtle sign that you are doing something wrong. It's not only about losing weight, or shouldn't be. It's about being healthy and giving your body the…

Happy Birthday! You look like a fabulous 23 year old! I would say you took back time! Very inspirational, thanks for sharing!
