Speaking from someone who has had an eating disorder her whole life i would like to simply tell you that, you need to look at this as a lifestyle not a diet, if you are consumed with numbers, especially those that are on the scale you will sabotage yourself. it is about healthy eating, proportion sizes, exercise, healthy…

First of all great job for taking a step toward a healthier you, there is a great support system here and i think its a great site, i have the app on my iphone and use it more than i do the computer, i find it better for me since i always have my iphone plus i have great elliptical and treadmill workouts on there. I always…

i think everything in moderation is key and yes you can still lose weight while consuming fast food, if you restrict yourself to never being allowed to eat bad food then you will probably binge one day, i allow myself one bad day a week, and for me that just means i am under my calories but way over in salt. i generally…

i have struggled for years with this mental battle i was very bad in highschool, i wish i could tell you that it goes away but i would be lying if i did. at 35 i still feel so ugly in my own body and wish that i could be pretty and super skinny lol. i know ppl get sick of hearing this all the time because they think you…

i think walking is great but for me it does not help me lose weight but then again i walk 12-16 hours a day as i work in a trauma hospital and rarely get breaks, if it works for you great but if it is spmething you do already your body may be used to it. i have to do interval training with elliptical and it works for me

I have fought the weight battle for a long time, i was on steriods for years d/t health problems but after a hysterectomy a year ago i am off the steriods and i can tell you this much everyone is different on how where and why they lose. For me lifting was great however i had to watch and still do because i tend to bulk up…

i agree with the second post i recently just finished couch to 5 k and i will give you the exact instructions from my phone here it goes: week 1 5 minute warmup, then alternate 60 seconds of jogging with 90 seconds of walking for 20 min very important do not run every day do three times a week give your body a rest do…

my sentiments exactly

The Ugly Truth The body does burn a higher percentage of calories from fat in the 'fat burning zone' or at lower intensities. But, at higher intensities, you burn a greater number of overall calories which is what you should be concerned about when trying to lose weight. The chart below details the fat calories expended by…

im in been doing already for 3 days but ill keep it up

take frozen chicken put zesty mrs dash marinade no sodium added(i use garlic and herb) and if you have a food steamer it works great got mine at jcpenny's for like 30 bucks steam about 60 min and the chicken is awesome very tender and very moist, afterwards place a piece of swiss chz a little bit of sauce and maybe some…

congrats to you you should be so proud and you deserve every bit of happiness you get

this is good too but remember if it is fat free it is full of salt otherwise it would taste like crap so fat free is okay sometimes but one piece of american cheese fat free has almost 280 mg of salt compared to swiss cheese which has 40 mg of salt and 90 calories. also are you drinking enough water maybe your not really…

try to limit each meal to like 300-400 at a time depending on your intake i eat about 1500-1600 a day and my meals are divided into 4 's sometimes i eat more more for lunch and sometimes i dont no one says you have to have a full dinner sometimes if i don't have a lot left i eat some fruit crackers and cheese for dinner.

That sounds really good - one note, though - I've read that it's generally better to try and spread your fiber consumption out throughout the day. If you get most of it at once, it's a little tougher on your digestive system. Especially anyone who is increasing their fiber intake, they'll want to do it somewhat gradually…

i've used quite a few i can't think of the names right off hand i'd have to look on my account and write them down but there was a lot of 10 min ones like kickboxing, abs,pilates, yoga and if you don't like it just remove it from your que no biggie your not paying for it, it's a win win. also a good idea for those who are…

DR OZ'S ULTIMATE SMOOTHIE Just in case anyone is interested in gettin in their daily fiber i came across this drink on one of his shows i have to say it is not the best tasting but it certaintly is not the worst. one drink gives you about 45% of your daily fiber and guess what all the ingredients showed up on mfp so here…

i am not a morning person at all so therefore all my energy is usually in the afternoons. so i find it best to do my workouts then. i always seem to do cardio first then weights but i have heard to do the opposite but the bottom line is if you do it and it gets done does it matter when and what order you did it???? i say…
