I love the clean eating magazines. I also have recently gotten into poorgirleatswell.com and a couple of other sights. Would like to just get additional ideas :)

Starkist Yellowfin Tuna, Apples, Mandarin, Cukes, Almonds/Walnuts, Roast Beef, Taboule

I really was thinking about the first of the year, but i've been thinking about sooner too. I'm so glad that you said that about the *7 minutes*. Thats so true! I'm going to add you! Hopefully we can set something up together to do this because I know in the long run my life is significantly more important than the *7…

I use to do it once a week on a Friday. Now typically, I do 2-3x a week in the morning. I don't worry about .5-1lb variations though since I weigh myself in that much..but i found for myself if was a good way to keep myself accountable. everyone's different though!

I began eating 1200 calories for about 3 months - never ever eating back my exericse calories, easily dropping almost 25lbs. Then when I hit the point where I wasn't loosing any more weight, I started to realize that I was working out and consuming not even 500 calories a day. So I started eating back the exercise calories…

I log pretty much everything, because its nice to see that things I thought that were no big deal before, are a big deal now! Before I'd go thru a whole bag of Lifesavers at my desk because I was bored..and now I realized that 2 are 40 calories! I'd be consuming calories that I didn't even think I was!

I really like her recipes, with that being said that I always seem to replace alot of things that she calls for. She likes to use alot of packaged products, while delicious, carry a ton of calories/sodium. So usually if there is something I can swap out for natural I do it. For instance, she has a great Buffalo Chicken Mac…

try changing your calorie intake, eating more of your exercise calories, changing some of your workout routines. I had this problem about a month back and that helped a ton! The change in cardio, doing more circuit training at the gym (kind like going from machine/exercise to machine/exercise) was super helpful in burning…

I originally wanted a BB, but for my anniversary my husband had purchased a HRM (Mio) and I really love it, other than the fact that I have to physically check my HR. I think for Christmas I would like a polar, but I think for now it served its purpose and wasn't a arm and a leg to purchase, or keep up with! :)

I love Cedar's Garlic Lovers Hummus, thats my snack with red/green peppers today! :)

Thanks ladies, its always nice to see what other things work and what don't with other people! :)

I've read alot about this, I think I'm going to look into it some more. Thanks! :)

Just to add, I'm not looking to spot reduce. Looking to do total body along with some exercises that forte in that area. I definetly know after all this time I can't spot reduce! :)

turkey meatballs, turkeyloaf, turkey tacos, ground turkey lasagna! since i discovered ground turkey I rarely use ground beef!

i use a camelbak and bring it with me all day. and always fill it up! i try to drink 5-7 of these a day!

This is how it has been for me. 30lbs went fast, approx 5-6 months. But I've been stuck on the last 20 for about 3 months, only getting 10lbs out of 2 months so its been tough!

1. It gets better over time 2. Workout hard, don't waste time in the gym if your exhausted. It will just bring you down. If you need a break, take one! 3. Be motivated, set up a chart that has your break days, cheat days, and days your really going to go hard at the gym. 4. The second piece of sweets, or the McDonalds run…

I purchased 2 Camelbaks and they have helped me tremendously with the amount of water I drink! These are great on the go and I feel like I drink a ton more water when I have it with me!

I just read thru your diary, while your doing awesome maybe its just not enough? I know I started trying to eat more wholesome foods, even though they have a higher calorie count/fat count. For instance, I started incorporating avocado into my eggs in the morning. It was so hard for me to eat a huge breakfast like that,…

Thanks for all the helpful hints guys, but I'm so frustrated. Today marks one month of no weight loss!! :(

thanks, its frustrating to say the least. but just have to keep pushing thru I guess! :)

I don't depend on it, I just know what I want to look like and what I'm not looking like. I have a very large stomach that is not sizing down and a scale thats not moving, but jeans that fit a month ago not fitting today. Its frustrating when I have followed a serious strategic plan for 6 months and now its just not…

Thanks! Its so tough since I am so dedicated and I'm just not at the size/look/shape I want! I will try eating the exercise calories, even though it will be super tough since I think that since I just burned it I shouldn't eat it back LOL!

I have changed my excercise routine, adding strength training and 3x a week running, I was also quite similar to you sticking to a machine I liked but then I thought that possibly that was what put me in the position of not loosing anymore, but I definetly think the calorie in & out could make a difference.
