Okay take a deep breath and let's look at this more closely. Was there a lot of oil on it? Was there cheese or croutons? What evil lurked in your very healthy sounding salad? Maybe you didn't eat all of the add ons that were counted in the calorie count. I would look for a second opinion if I were you. If the calories came…

I can sympathize with your situation. I too have a great enjoyment of a couple glasses of red wine each evening. I have tried cutting them out but know that as soon as get back to my goal, that I will add them back. You must do to lose weight what you are willing to do to KEEP IT OFF. Therefore, my advice is to reduce the…

Well I know exactly what you mean. I make my plan at the start of each day but sometimes things happen and all of a sudden, you are over on calories. One thing to do is make sure you are drinking at least 8 glasses of water (half your body wt in oz is what is recommended) and that helps to keep you feeling full. Also…

I'm no expert or have any stats for you but my own personal experience is that when I have done up to 1 hr on the elliptical, my weight loss has increased. It's def a harder workout than the treadmill. I can see that from the heart rate also. I've been doing 20 to 30 min trying to work back to an hr. I hurt my back a few…

I'm so impressed with your willpower. I must have my two glasses of red wine each night. It seems to be the one thing that I don't want to give up. I know my weight loss would go much better if I did.

Thanks for your responses. I don't think the ear bud wires are touching any metal but I will double check that. Wireless would probably be great. I'm sure they are $$$ though. If you think of anything else.....I'm open. The gym said that they did have a couple other people mention it too but didn't know how to prevent it.…

You can make "Orange Stuff" (or pink stuff or green stuff depending on the jello powder you add) by simply putting some cottage cheese in a bowl, sprinkle on some sugar free jello powder of your choice, add some coordinating fruit such as pineapple with the orange or cherries with cherry jello powder etc. Then you can add…

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are so right to be aware of that. Knowledge is power and you are a step ahead of the game. You could always use those calories on good foods that are higher in calories like olive oil, walnuts and raw almonds, avocados, yogurt, oats etc. Congrats!

Feel pretty at my daughter's wedding in September. I'm at my highest weight in 15 years....I lost 50 pounds back then and am slowly putting it back on.
