A good trick to try is to leave something on your plate at each meal. It really adds up. A good book is "Eat this, not that" because it will also give you good tips. Also, drink a lot of water and give up soda and artificial sweetener. Both are bad for your body, and the sodas have so many calories. Good luck to you. I…

Careful with eating under 1200 calories...that is considered starvation mode. Your body will hold on to the fat to nourish itself. I agree- I never lost weight by eating more, but my trainer told me something that works. Your body has a great memory= it gets accustomed to your exercise routine and eating habits. She told…

Mine is awesome. She raised her son well....even though he is an only child, I have never gotten the impression that he is spoiled. She and I are both strong willed, but she has always been very respectful of our privacy, and of our choices on how to raise her only grandchildren. Even if she disagrees with my wishes…

Mine is the exact same way. He knows I am not doing anything wrong. :)

I am in exactly the same situation, except that I had to stop exercising in Jan. due to back surgery. I am really having to watch my food intake due to the inactivity. Here are a few ideas that my trainer told me: 1. your body gets used to routine. Somedays you need to change caloric intake. You can have a high calorie…

Good luck to you! I started on this website as part of a program at my gym. I had back surgery 6 weeks ago, so I had to stop going to the gym for a while. :( I recently got back onto the site to control my weight. It creeps back on easily when you have limited to no exercise. I found that it is really helpful.. Don't beat…

In my husband's home growing up, food equals love. His mom still shows her affection by food......not good for my kids- both are overweight at this point. My hubby will bring things home all of the time- can't say no if the kids want sweets. The hard thing is that I have asked him to quit bringing it in the house countless…

honestly, sounds like too much work for me!!!!

I have done WW, also. I find this site much easier. As long as you track your calories, it will work for you. Good luck!!!!!

Are you eating too little each day? I remember trying to stay under 1200 calories a day (which is starvation mode for someone of my size), and I was really cranky. Also, I think it helps if you don't deprive yourself. Obviously, you are doing something right if you have lost 32 pounds! Congratulations, and good work. :)

This is a tremendous website. I started in June and have lost about 16 pounds. (I am much older than you! It comes off slower. :) Good luck to you. I think that if you stick with it, even when you go over your calories, you will find that it works better than most programs. Have fun!

what is the 30 day shred?
