I noticed the same thing and tried to research some of the causes and for the most part it is due to the foods that take more time to digest. Things such as whole grains and bananas seem to be my enemy. But I eat them anyway and let everyone else suffer with me :-D

I have done both programs. I started with insanity and loved it. I wouldnt say I lost a lot through that program though. But I wasn't following their diet plan or drinking their recovery drink. I am in the last two weeks of P90x and I must say that I am not for sure if it has done much. The DVDs are soooo long and in order…

I'm being pursued by a man that is 18 years older than I. In some ways I think it can work...but there are other times when I think it wouldn't. For reasons like my kids are the same age as his grandchild. I am just starting with a new toddler and he has been done with and kids and expressed not wanting more, while i…

88 pounds down and i still have a very hard time with this. I went into a store that didn't sell plus size clothes and felt very self conscious like i didn't belong in there unless I had a skinny friend beside me. I get uncomfortable when people look me up and down once they notice I have lost weight...and i still feel…

Thank you for that comment...I am just starting out running and starting at a slow pace, but i am beginning to enjoy it now that i know it doesn't have to be a full on sprint...

I love turbo jam and would like to be a part of this group...already had a plan to do a tj workout tomorrow morning!

My my my... Just from your pictures you can tell you are a confident young woman...so happy to see as when I started I didn't feel bad about myself initially. But even now that you are in onederland you can still tell you have confidence. Which is AWESOME to see that you had prior to weight loss... It can only increase…

Wow...so happy for you! I have a friend dealing with a heart condition and had to go on a strict diet to accommodate the condition. As a result has lost a lot of weight and still has to deal with the condition. I'm sending prayers that one day she will have the same sv as yourself!

From what I understand, slow weight loss gives your skin time to shrink. The reason your skin hangs is because there is still fat deposits there. Once the fat shrinks, the skin will have an opportunity to be closer to the muscle. I have noticed with my weight loss that my excess skin should be a lot more than it is, but…

Very helpful. I weigh daily just because I like to see when there are fluctuations, I only let it bother me when it is my "weighin" day. The measuring tape hasnt been that nice to me...could be that I am measuring myself wrong...but I have noticed that on the days after I have done a lighter workout I weigh the least.

Plus if we are talking about the same weights, I think they are only 2 lbs...and you can just find wrist weights and have the same benefit :)

IMO I think the zumba Wii is a better option...only because the Wii game puts the songs in different orders so you don't get too used to the routine and as you do more it adds new songs...whereas the dvd will always be the same...you will be able to recite their corney sayings, and get too used to the moves...I have tried…

Wow...what a feat...awesome job, so inspirational!

My drivers license has been wrong for years too...but now I am 10 lbs under and I am not done yet....now my license will be wrong again for another 6 years....great accomplishment!!!!

I have had great success so far with counting calories. Like another person said I exercise for health not for weight loss. It feels so awesome to know that I don't have to work myself to death trying to get high calorie burns so I can lose a pound or two. I have lost close to the same amount of weight years ago by working…

bump Currently battling with this concept, have been eating more (eating exercise calories, typically over 1500) but don't seem to be losing weight. Was eating less (no more than 1300) for the first 63 lbs and was losing tons. Started the increased calories to avoid the plateaus I did have. Admittedly haven't given it time…

That is an awesome accomplishment!

I like the dance off the inches and the walk off the pounds dvds by Leslie sansone. Right now i have gone from the one mile to the five mile. I am also getting used to the jillian michaels increase metabolism burn fat dvd.
