I look at it this way. I woke up this morning and was blessed to see another day so I have no reason to continue to stay in bed when I have so much ahead of me for the day. This really motivates me to get up and exercise because there are so many people who wish to do so and can't. It works for me. It also motivates me…

Great job because I know how hard it is to get 20 pounds off. I am 1 pound away from losing 20 pounds, and I am highly motivated to do so.

Welcome to MFP which is a great tool for weight loss. I love this site because it gave me the opportunity to see how many calories I eat every day. I never realized how many calories are in fast food until I joined this site. For that reson, I rarely eat out except on few occasions and what a big difference in my way of…

Great job on your weight loss. I was doing the happy dance this morning when I was dressing for work because of the way my clothes were fitting. Yes, yes ,yes was all that came out of my mouth. It feels great.

I started level 2 yesterday and I was disappointed that I was not able to do a lot of the exercises. However, I was the same way when I started level 1. I stuck with it which is what I plan to do with this level. Some of the exercises I will not be able to do in this level due to knee pain but I plan to give it my best.…

Did you let your doctor know that this plan was not working for you? I have no idea why he would tell you to skip dinner. That's a lot of calories for breakfast. You are going amost 12 hours without a meal going by his plan. I try not eat after 7 p.m. and it works well most of the time.

I was the same way when I first started on my ellipitical trainer. The way I builded my endurance was to work on it a little every day even if I could only stay for 2 minutes each time. Continue to make little steps and you will be able to stay on it longer. Trust me, I used to be in your shoes with the same problem at…

Brisk walking. On one of her DVD's she said you are walking about 5 miles per hour at the speed we were on . Thanks

After reading different comments about the 30 day shred, I decided to buy it and give it a try. At first I thought, Jillian expects me to do that (lol). I must say I have a long way to go to do what she is saying I will be able to do. The first day, I think I made it to the jumping jacks and rested. After a few minutes, I…

To keep your bananas from going bad, seperate them when you get home. I learned this from a friend and it really helps.

I have a desk job as well. When I snack in between meals, I try to make sure it is a healthy snack. That doesn't always happens but the majority of the time, I have some type of fresh fruit. I also snack on 100 calories popcorn instead of potato chips.

My favorite exercise DVD is definately Leslie Sansone. She offers different DVD's that target certain areas of the body. Before I bought one, I read the reviews via the Internet. I own 3 of them. The moves are not hard and she encourages you throughout the entire workout. Her 5 day slim down offers you 5 different miles.…

A friend gave me her elliptical trainer, and I love it. When I first started, I was only able to stay on it for 2 minutes. Now, I'm working it and I can stay on it for 30 minutes to an hour. I'm still at resistance level 2, but slowly working my way up to level 3. I remember when I first started, I thought level 2 was…

I completely gave up soda also. The headaches will continue until your body adjusts to not having the caffeine. If they get too bad, I suggest drinking a small amount of caffeine each day to let your body slowly adjust to not having the caffeine instead of going cold turkey. It's makes a big difference in your weight loss…

I saw this recipe on Dr. Oz show and I love it. This was my first time trying avacado and I was pleasantly surprised. It is called the Brazilian Avacado Shake. Instead of the low fat milk, I use 1/2 can of fat free condensed milk. Ingredients 2 cups low-fat milk 1 large, ripe avocado 2 tbsp of honey or agave nectar A…
