I'm not close enough to have this problem, but I know it is a common one and can be overcome. You body chooses to lose when it wants and in what order (not where we want it to), so sometimes tunny is the last to go. From what I've read, though, some people swear by clean eating, others running. Still some go crazy over…

If your daily BMR is 1400 (roughly 58 calories per hour), then for every hour you exercise, the amount of additional calories you burn is the amount that your heart rate monitor tells you, less 58. So if, in order to burn the 1200 calories daily, you workout 2 hours, then you have burned an additional 1084 calories…

i come very close to my protien quota quite often and sometimes exceed it. i rarely eat tofu (though i did today). frankly there is a ton of protien in a variety of fruits and veggies, but hummus and protien bread are two of my staples as well as rice and beans. my food diary is public. i have been a vegetarian all my…

You've gotten great responses here. What works for me it to focus on the process rather than the result. I establish goals and rewards for the process = logging, staying under calorie goal, eating healthy, and exercising. After a period of time passes where I do one or all (or something specific like keep sodium low), I…

I'm sorry that you've had a rough start. Sometimes that happens. I have 150 lbs to lose. I've lost 47 lbs. It is a simple formula really = burn more calories than you need = weight loss. It takes time. You've gotten lots of great responses to this post. I don't have a great deal to add except this: Figure out how many…

THIS IS SUCH AN INCREDIBLE INSPIRATIONAL MIRACLE THAT YOU'VE CREATED FOR YOURSELF AND OTHERS!!!! I can't thank you enough for sharing. If you are comfortable doing so, would love to know what you've been doing to lose all this weight. I assume you have not been able to exercise much so you are eating less. What a blessing…

Hard to follow all that but, I suggest that you keep it simple and tell these folks that you are sorry you annoyed or hurt or offended them and that you've noticed that you have a way of doing that sometimes (unintentionally and unknowingly). Let them know that you're trying your best and you hope they can accept you the…

Several times a day . . . is there a problem with that? LOL But seriously, I weigh whenever I want to. I appreciate the feedback. I like knowing how much I weigh with clothes, without, before a workout, after a workout, after dinner, before bed, in the morning (early), in the morning (after I sleep in). I like knowing how…

Wow, that is flabbergasting! It really takes some unbelievable nerve to say something like that to someone else (especially someone that you are related to). Frankly, I would not respond (if I thought I could get away with never talking to them again) OR if I knew I had to interface with them going forward . . . I would…

There are huge differences in folks who are athletes, those who need to lose less than 50 lbs, those who want to tone, and those of us who have a lot to lose. For all, a well rounded workout schedule is the best (cardio + core + strength + stretching). After that, it gets very different for what you are trying to do. If…
