You probably need to give it more time if you have only been logging for 1 week. Try eating at least 1200 calories every day and keep in mind your weight may vary up to 3 lbs daily. Just be consistant weighing and logging. I weigh in every Thursday morning immediately after waking up right after using the bathroom. I have…

I eat 1-2 eggs everyday and my cholesterol is 89. LDL is 45 and HDL is 44. Don't believe the hype! Great source of protein and low calorie.

heathersmilez Here is the original recipe, but I do not use the glaze and I make this 2 loaves and freeze one. It will still taste great 2 months later. Vegetable Meatloaf with Balsamic Glaze Recipe courtesy Bobby Flay for Food Network Magazine Ingredients 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 small zucchini, finely diced…

All my answers were healthy ones except the fruits and veggies so the pedi gave me several option to get more veggies in her. I try to get at least 1 protein in her every day, but the pedi suggested I concentrate more on the fruits and veggies. That was good to know because I guess my focus was wrong there. Instead of…

So I love that my hubby agrees to use the hall bath and give me the master bath to myself. I am very OCD and can't stand his stuff in my way. I hate that when he is out of toothpaste, shampoo, or toilet paper he gets it out of my bathroom instead of out of the linen closet. So then I have to go to the linen closet to get…

He was a superdad when he stayed at home with them while he was off work. I think he doesn't realize how hard it is doing it by myself when I work 50 hours per week and take care of the kids by myself 5 nights per week.

Thanks! I think we need to be grateful we have our family and I don't want to put anymore undue pressure on us if we cannot handle it. I know GOD won't give us anymore than we can handle though.

No one is having babies now. I think he misses the infant stage maybe? He has very high energy and always needs to have something to move towards. I think he feels like he feels like "What's next?". We graduated from college, got married, bought a house, had children and now what? My thoughts are we enjoy life. He has…

So the irony is that I pressured him for years to have a baby. We talked before we were married and were going to start trying after a year. Four years later I had given up pressuring him and decided I would stay married to him despite the fact we would never have children. Out of nowhere he decided he wanted to have a…

He works evenings so he doesn't spend much time with the children, but he does that to make enough money so they can go to a great Christian school. He was off work for almost five months and was a stay-at-home dad to both of them up until about 3 months ago so he knows how much work they are.

So funny about #5. We found out we were pregnant with #2 at our fertility appointment to go back on fertility drugs. Our oldest was only 3 1/2 months old!

No, he can't force me, but I want to convince him its the wrong decision - not just put my foot down and say, "No!" If only men could experience pregnancy to see how trying it is on a woman's body.

I struggle with that too. I'll tell my husband if I have a great loss or when I have a good workout, but usually he doesn't notice. I get up at 5am and workout and he doesn't notice me gone. He may see my water bottle in the sink and ask if I worked out, then he looks surprised that I did. I am trying to not need others'…

Donatos thin crust pepperoni. I could easily eat half the pizza with the thin crust and that would be a whopping 1,300 calories!

You may want to start brushing your teeth more. It could be plaque buildup. It gets secreted thru the urine and I think it causes a rare weight gain disorder. I would go see a doctor right away. Urine should NOT be yellow under any circumstances.

How about the summer's eve commercial that actually has a tag line "ALL HAIL TO THE "V"" Seriously? Did they really insinuate all hail to the vagina??? http://www.wusa9.com/news/article/159140/283/Summers-Eve-Hail-To-The-V-Commercial-May-Cross-The-Line-Of-Decorum-And-Health

I like the Atkins chocolate. It has 15g protein and only 160 calories. I usually have a snack about 3 hours later because it won't keep me full until lunch though.

To run a 5k in November, a 10k in March and the half marathon in May.

Skippy natural. I bought Jif the other day b/c it was on sale and it tasted AWFUL! Skippy natural is the only way to go!

Good luck on your 5k! Congrats on your accomplishment of finishing the program!

Most training schedules for 5k, 10k, 1/2 marathon etc give you 2 days off per week. I would say maybe you could do 5 days per week, but your body needs a rest. Or maybe do 3 days per week running and 2 days doing something else. (Maybe strength training?)

My triglycerides were almost 200 9 months ago. After losing 57 lbs on a low cal diet down to 44! It really works.

Hence "and keeping it off"

You are HILARIOUS!

http://www.walmart.com/ip/Taylor-Model-7506-Glass-Electronic-Scale/14311191 I love this scale and it got great reviews on consumer reports. It's the Taylor 7506 for $40.

What's your motivation? Mine is either my "fat" picture or my "skinny" picture. I put the fat one by my alarm clock and the skinny one on the treadmill.

It has taken me 8 months to lose 57 lbs. I am committed to keeping it off and to getting healthier. I still have 13 lbs. to go and I am going to work for as long as it takes to get these final pounds off.

Yeah! I thought I had acne because I just gave birth to 2 kids in the last 2 years and my hormones were out of whack. I started a new bc when I started my weight loss journey and thought that may have had something to do with it. I am much happier knowing its because my metabolism is increasing!

I have IBS and I use miralax or metamucil clear. You may not want a laxative, but sometimes you just need to be cleaned out. Are there any foods that couse you to have diarrhea? You can try eating those. I good spicy salsa helps me move. Maybe a jalapeno pizza? Good luck!
