Yup I would eat more protein and less prepackaged stuff. Also when you eat sugary snacks like cookies and sweets your body craves more. I still eat treats too but I do notice when I eat them I want more and more. So I try to fill that need with fresh fruit instead!

1. pops 2. apple jacks 3. cinnamon toast crunch 4. honey nut cheerios 5. cocoa puffs 6. fruity pebbles 7. kashi? (in general) 8. lucky charms 9. life or chex? 10 .wheaties or total? 11. frosted shredded wheat? 12. rice krispies? (no..not made into treats) 13. cap'n crunch with berries? 14. pb crunch 15. .oatmeal =)

Yup get a HRM I bet you are overestimating your calorie burn!

This past weekend I became one with all of the m&m dishes at the holiday party.......and the cheese platter, and the boneless buffalo wings.....and whatever else was on the table lol!

I have had two c-sections and my profile pic is my recent pic =)

I am in the last phase right now. Have 1-2 weeks left =) LOVE LOVE the program..........and muscle burns fat so not sure what that be careful post was all about!!! I wish I would have realized weights were where its at a loonnnnggg time ago. I burned myself out with cardio but now doing weights I am in the best shape and…

I am freezing all the time anyway so I usually stop running once it gets cold!!! I would be running with heat packs ;P It gets below zero here and I would be frozen to the side of a house ;P

It's all about lowering your bf% Mine started to show around 16-18%

I have the Polar FT4 and it was 63 shipped and I love it!

I didn't log and I KNOW I went over and I LOVED every bite ;P

http://glutenfreeeasily.com/best-pumpkin-pie-ever-and-its-crustless-gluten-free-and-dairy-free/ Just made this last night =)

at 1200 I lost nothing....... at 1600 I started losing fast........ at 1800 still lose slow........ 2000-2200 seems to be maintenance for me!

NO way...........I tell them to eat when they are hungry and we do not do hardly ANY prepackaged snacks. We eat fresh fruit, veggies, and lean meat! They get a treat once in a while but no calorie counting here!

Love this post........it's a life style change not a diet!!! Enjoy Thanksgiving EVERYONE =)

I am 5'3" with a small frame and I weigh 110. I have been maintaining for over a year and eating 2000-2200 to maintain that. My BMI is 19.1.

I do most of my eating at night so it is NOT true at all!!!!

Yup =( Lost 28lbs and went from a nice B to a AA =( boooooooooooooo! But it makes sense I am low bf so they would have to go too!!

I don't think coffee in its self is bad for you. Now the creamer and sugar is another story. Obviously drinking 10 cups a day isn't good because of all the caffeine but I do have 2-3 cups a day =)

1200 calories isn't enough really for anyone. When I was eating at that I was tired.....run down, zero energy, and didn't lose a pound. When I upped them my energy was up and the weight fell off. You need to feed your body in order to lose weight. Being tired and run down is your bodies way of saying I need more to…

Yup I have 1 or 2 squares a day =) I have read 1 oz a day has good health benefits so sign me up ;P

I probably won't log and will probably go over on calories but not worried about it as it is only a few days in a year and it won't hurt anything =)

It takes a lot for me to burn a huge amount! For me I am happy with 200-300 but I am in maintenance mode. If I do the elliptical for 30 mins I am lucky to burn 200 :(

Yes to the cake after all it is a lifestyle change not a diet. The way I look at it is I am not going to NEVER have cake again. Instead I work it into my daily calories but if I go over I don't stress about it. One day isn't going to ruin anything you have done =) I not only have cake on my birthday but my kids and my…

It's all about bf% the lower the bf the more your abs will show so it is 100% diet. Abs are made in the kitchen =P

Yup I eat them all.........if you don't want yours pass them my way I will gladly eat them all ;P

Yup get a new Doctor!!! In MY opinion doctors know how to prescribe medicine not get to the core of the problem, for this reason we see naturopaths, osteopaths, and chiropractors!

Yup this is how I know it is coming. I want CHOCOLATE and MORE CHOCOLATE.............

You might not be eating enough and that will cause hair loss!

1. bag of spinach 2. strawberries 3. blueberries 4. Goat cheese 5. Chicken 6. Cottage cheese 7. coconut yogurt 8. GF granola 9. Turkey burger 10. sweet potato 11. COFFEE (sorry there has to be an 11 ;P

If you are hungry eat!!! I always do just choose something healthy. I don't think having a nutritious snack even if you are over calories is going to hurt anything. Listen to your body!!
