well lucily I had all the ingredients on hand! I just got individually wrapped, frozen fillets from Target. About six or seven come in the bag. But any will do!

I have already divided the ingredients up so 424 for 1 person.

Amen! lol my fiancée is the opposite he is always trying to take my picture now and I am not at that point yet where I want it taken!

It also sounds like you are gaining muscle if your mid-section is more toned. It may take another couple of weeks before the pounds start dropping but if you are eating right and exercising then you should see results. But maybe you should eat more calories since you are doing intense exercises!

That's awesome! It really puts things in perspective....I am in between the world's largest ball of tape and a new born calf! Wow!

I know what you mean. For the longest I tried to "pretend" I didn't have a weight problem even though the scale steadily went up. So when I started losing weight and people started commenting I was very appreciative of it but still felt uncomfortable. I have gotten better and it motiviates me more to keep going, especially…

They are very good for you but just make sure you make room for them in your calorie count for the day.

I was weighing everyday but it fluctuates too much. So I have started doing it Sunday mornings but I think I will only do every two weeks now. It will be hard not to jump on but I need to try and not do it so often.

My sister does the Insanity workout and she is trying to get me to do it. I told her when I got down to 200lbs I would start it. She only weighs 133lbs so it's easier for her. But I know if I could start one of those programs I would see quicker results! They are just so intense!

That's a great attitude! I know you will do great on your journey. :smile:

I was wondering this too! I wanted to start Insanity bc my sister has been doing it for a year and won't shut up about it. I told her I would start it once I got to 200lbs. Well I only have 15lbs to go but I am scared I won't be able to do it and get discouraged.

I mostly do walking/jogging on my treadmill on a highlevel incline, crunches and lifting a little weights for upper body strengh (trying to lose the flabbing arms:happy: )

Well here in the US there are so many obese people I fit right in! lol But I started off at 297 lbs on 7/5/2010 and as of today I am at 215lbs. It has not been easy and has taken sweat and a lot of tears but I have shed 82 lbs so far! I feel so much better but I still have at least 51lbs to go. There is always hope but the…

I gave up caffeine for a while and after the headaches, dizziness and feeling like crap I felt much better. I now only drink 1 Diet Dr. Pepper twice a week. I came to the conclusion that I can still have it but not the excess where I am dependent on it.

Everyone's body is different but from my experience since I have started watching my calories for a year now is that I don't eat back my exercise calories and I roughly stay around 1200 calories. I for almost that full year I exercised 4-5 days per week and within the last several months I started doing 6 to 7 days per…

Welcome! Good luck on your journey. If you need a friend on here feel free to add me!

My fiancee has been so, so supportive! He will eat all the healthy meals I cook and even has a few favorites he requests regularly. He knows he needs to lose about 10lbs or so but his weakness is sweets. I, on the other hand, do not like sweets at all so when he brings them home it doesn't bother, nor tempt me. He knows…

couldn't have said it better myself! You do need to do something to shake up your body every now and then. I did that a couple months ago and didn't lose anything for a little while but I didn't gain either. Then I went back to watching everything very closely and lost 25 additional lbs in 7 weeks!

I exercise 6 days a week for 50 to 60 mins each day. I log my calories burned based on my treadmill. I have been using the same treadmill for over a year and have lost 82lbs. So even if the number it gives me (which is more than MFP) is not correct then I am not worried about it bc I am doing something right! I don't eat…

I have been having that same issue the last week or so. I drink around 120 oz of water a day, I don't eat processed foods or bottled condiments with exception to my Light Ranch ( I refuse to give this up!) I workout 6 days a week for 1 hr and I feel blah right now. I guess my body is going through more changes right now.…

I agree with working out 6 days a week. I have been doing that for the past 6 weeks and have lost 3 inches in my waist and 25lbs! Just being on here and logging my info has helped tremendously!

lol awesome, love the "winter coat!" But that's true you are likely not gaining any weight over the weekend. The "bad" foods you are consuming are probably just causing you to retain fluid or since you don't go to the bathroom then it would show you have gained. I can weigh and show one weight and then go to the bathroom…

I'm with you! I hope to lose more than 25lbs by then but I will take the 25! I go try on wedding dresses in November so gotta work hard! i will send you a friend request!

On here constantly! If not on my computer at work then on my cell phone. I haven't been on Facebook in over 3 weeks because of this site. So informative and great support system!

You look fabulous!!

I was on it in the beginning of my journey last year and it did help. One thing you have to be careful of is if you do consume anything fatty or "bad for you" bc you will pay for it when you go to the bathroom! I don't know if that is what jumpstarted my weightloss though bc I went on a strict diet at the same time. I only…

This is my BIGGEST problem too. Everything has smoothed out and toning except the stomach. It's frustrating!!

That's so awesome. I wish them the best and abudance of health for her and the baby!!

I can burn 700 in 70 mins on my treadmill but i am on a level 8 incline going uphill the whole time. is there a way to recalibrate it?
