Dont eat cereal at all. Opt for plain oatmeal (season with cinnamon & blueberries or other fruit) , eggs & sweet potato hashbrowns, homemade breakfast sandwhich , plain greek yogurt ( add a hint of vanilla extract & 1 or 2 packs of sweetener) with a little honey, nuts and dried fruit (or fresh) , whole wheat pancake or…

Dump his pathetic a**. This makes me so friggin mad. This will never end! Why be with someone who doesnt love you for you. Do you really want to be part of a family that is disrespectful like that? That judges people? That judges YOU, their sons girlfriend that he loves. This guy is an a-hole and if you stay with him, you…

Im day 74!!!! Ill post next week, I haven't taken any photos since my first day ( January 28th I believe) so im really excited to see the results. This program works. Unfortunately I know I wont be seeing the proper results I wanted to see, only because I had to skip a few workouts because I was sick (and now sick again :(…

I just add mixed nuts and dried cranberry and cinnamon. I don't think about it too much, all I know is that I need my oatmeal every morning.

Wow!!! You look great!!!! Very inspiring!

Go see your doctor and ask if there are exercises you can do. Even ask for exercises that will help build muscle and strengthen your back for better support.

I understand where your coming from. But personally, I feel that my current success in losing weight and being healthy does have a little to do with "cheat meals". I don't depend on them, but every now and then, I will have a crazy urge to eat a certain type of food. Even foods I have never liked before. At first, I waited…

Vodka water with a splash of cranberry juice or another juice. Squeeze a lime wedge into it. I personally like beer. You can even go for the 67 cal one. You will 100% know how many calories that are in your beer. Whereas other alcoholic beverages will all be approximate and you can easily go over yoru sugar intake etc.

This!

So hows the progress going!

5 egg whites, unlimited vegetables, 1 serving of starch.. Starch ideas: 1 serving of brown bread (ezekiel is good), 1/2 cup of oatmeal, 4-6 oz sweet potato ( good idea for home made hashbrowns!!!), 1/4 cup cooked quinoa, the list goes on. As long as you have your protein, vegetables and starch, you can eat anything. Google…

Me too!!! I think its because the amount of exercise I do in comparison to what I eat on a daily basis . Food is used as fuel and energy, but if you don't eat enough and drink enough water, you get tired. Plan to have 5-6 meals a day and have snacks ready !

Better than any kind of junkfood, right? Dont worry about it! Your getting all the essential nutrients etc you need :)

Your not eating enough. Your body is storing everything you eat as fat instead of using it for fuel and energy . Also, screw the scale. Focus on the inches. Isnt that whats important? Not what some stupid number says on some stupid weight machine.

ANY WAY YOU WANT IT THATS THE WAY YOU NEEED IT ANY WAY YOU WANNTT IT

I dont mean to sound discouraging, but 100lbs should be your ultimate goal to lose. Setting smaller goals will help you achieve your ultimate goal in the long run. What you are losing now is water weight. It happens to everyone at the beginning of a diet. You lose a lot, and then after a while, the scale will barely budge.…

Prep in advanced! Here's a great idea :) http://www.kalynskitchen.com/2006/10/egg-muffins-revisited-again.html

Im not sure where you work, but dont you get time for lunch and dinner? If not, bring a cooler to work! If you dont have a microwave, make foods that you dont need to heat up (or have soup in a thermos). Examples: canned tuna, salads ( even add chicken), vegetables, protein bars, protein drinks, cold salads like quinoa(my…

I went from being 190 to now at 143. All i did was eat real clean foods with the occasional cheat meal. I try to have 5-6 meals a day. Its do-able, you just need to prep your meals in advance. Because of prepping food in advanced for lunches , etc. I didnt really need to think of what i was eating. I also keep a bag of…

Think -Atkins Diet- . For the next two weeks, no fruits, no carbs, no sugar, no alcohol, no salt. Drink plenty of water, at least 8 glasses. I would not suggest to continue afterwards, just go back to eating clean, including whole wheat carbs. The weight you will lose is water weight, but it usually comes off fairly…

25 to 30lbs.I find that this is the hardest part! I do eat fairly well, and exercise, but it just doesn't come off as "easy" as id hope. I do work hard every day, exercise 6x a week, and eat clean with the occasional cheat meal. Lately those meals consist of air popped popcorn, nothing too crazy. I hope I can lose more by…

You can never have enough of water. But those uncomfortable times really do suck and can sometimes really hurt your stomach! I usually just lay down or sit down for a little bit and try to relax. I wouldn't suggest doing any exercises right after just because you can easily get a cramp and make the feeling even worse (…

I would probably stop going on this website if it became more of a dating scene.

Always check the nutrition label. Look at fat content, carbs, sodium and sugar. To be honest, I wouldn't even use butter. You can go without. Can you give some examples of what you use butter for ? I might be able to give you a few suggestions for supplementing butter. As for spices, I never worry too much about it.…

Dont have bread or refried beans ( i found out they are made with LARD!!). You can have a taco, if they have whole wheat options, opt for that. Chances they dont, you can always ask for a taco, but no tortilla. Limit your sour cream, cheese etc. Maybe even choose one or the other. Might look funny in your plate, but who…

salt, carbs

I find that pineapple is so sweet its better than candy. But if thats too boring, get some plain greek yogurt, add some stevia and vanilla extract. So yummy!
