Look up how much to maintain. Then look up how much to lose max. As long as you stop gaining and start losing, it is all good. But knowing your upper and lower range is good. I'm 5"2' and 47, so 1200 is the magic number for me. In fact, when I get to goal, that's where I'll be. Exercise is the key (to expedite weight loss…

I have a very low sugar diet normally (not counting fruit) and my husband has been off sugar for months. Sugar is not really my down fall (I'm more of a salt addict), but I've recommended sugar detox to numerous folks who have enjoyed fabulous benefits (on day four). A sugar detox takes about three days. The most important…

Wow that SUCKS!!! I can't even imagine or relate. I have the opposite as all my family is supportive and proud. They even all went on a walk with me after dinner (and they are all thin). Wish you could just walk out the door and come over here and get some peace!!!! In my view, to be at all critical when someone is doing…

Yes, I researched that a while back and confirmed to my satisfaction that weight gain can and does occur in the muscle buildling process. That is no biggie. I've been up 1-3 lbs at a time and it always comes back down. Certainly exercising and healthy muscle building is the most wonderful thing! Keep up the great work and…

Logging, counting, exercising and enjoying the new fit me! Yes, I'm eating more of my exerciese calories. Yes, I went over one day. Yes, I'm eating some sweets (though I normally don't). But this is a lifestyle change and I'm going to need to log the rest of my life. I didn't lose this weight to put it back on. No sir! I…

Thanks so much. My losing striek continues! 197.4 today. Santa is spoiling me :)

You've gotten tons of great comments and while I'm generally an ubber positive person . . . keep in mind that the number of calories you can eat get's less as you age. To me, 1500 or 1700 sounds like a feast! I'm 47 years old and 5'2". Once I reach goal, I'll be allowed 1200 calories daily (if I'm lucky). I have a desk job…

I DID IT!!! I MADE MY SEXY FOR CHRISTMAS GOAL!!!! Today (Tuesday) I weighed 199 lbs even! So so so exciting to reach a goal that I set way back when. I hope many of you are sexy for Christmas. Have a wonderful holiday. This is the best Christmas present ever ever.

As you know, I have no idea. I hope someone can help. As I understand it, most folks gain because they eat more. I know you are not eating more. And you exercise hours a day.

So wonderful!!!! So insiring!!! Thanks for sharing!

I wear a bra and a sports bra and I don't do high impact. Frankly, I feel like I need to get lighter before I have any business doing high impact. Otherwise, my boobs and my belling just flop around. I can get my heart rate up good and high on the elliptical, swimming, low impact aerobis, fast walking, etc. And it does get…

Oh how wonderful!!! I can't imagine!!! That's amazing :)))))

It this is a genuine post, then I apologize. It seems that you have not filled out any portion of your profile, posted a picture, received any friends or posted any other messages. We get a lot of trolls on here and I thought you were one. If you are actually a 19 year old girl cutting yourself, then you definately need…

Lots of folks actually drink more. 8 cups is just a marketing gimic / rule of thumb. To determine how much water you should be drinking use this calculator. There are lots of factors. It is hard to do for about 3 days but after that you become reaquainted with thirst and after about 3 weeks, you don't know how you ever…

Amazing difference!!!! You are doing fantastic :)))))))

Diet sprite would work too.

I can really relate, but there are 3500 calories in a pound, so you have to eat less, exercise more (and not eat back those calories) or both. If you aren't willing to do the work now, then a tummy tuck is not the answer, because you'll just gain the weight back. The lifestyle you have now, is how you gained the weight and…
