I always get the tortillas that have extra fiber, use ground turkey and extra spicy taco seasoning and then add fat free cheese

I've noticed that you have this dillema a lot. Maybe if you stuck to healthy foods you would actually learn to enjoy them too? I know that I look forward to healthier things a lot more now that I have them as a regular part of my diet. Whatever you decide, good luck!

Welcome! I'm glad you are seeing how helpful this site is! I've been on here for a little over 2 weeks now and have been able to see where I need to change so that I can reach my weight loss goal. Good luck!

I coulnd't really plan what I ate this weekend, aside from while I was on the road (in which I packed healthy snacks but still ended up having fried chicken fingers and fries). I don't know how many calories I took in but I'm sure it was near or above 3000 a day. Breakfast cooked by his mother, lunch with his dad and…

I def don't drink enough water while drinking wine/beer so that is a good idea. Thanks!

Although I weight myself throughout the week, Monday is my weigh in day. I think that's one of the reasons I feel so bad after the weekend! I might start using Friday as my official weigh in day.

It's good to know that I'm not the only one feeling this way! I will try to stop feeling so guilty and allow myself to have a meal here or there and a few drinks without worrying that it will sabotage my results. I need to realize that it's not all about losing the weight but maintaining a healthy yet livable life. Thanks!

Next time you are in this predicament go to the grocery store and buy one of the Garlic Chicken Viola meals (frozen). They take 10-15 minutes in a pan on the oven a taste yummy! 2 cups (which is a lot to me) is only 480 calories.

If you want good sweet potatoe fries you should use a higher heat for about 30 minutes. I've cut them up into chip form and placed them with Olive oil, cinnamon and a little salt on aluminum foil on the grill...works great!

I had this problem a lot too but found that the VSX Victorias Secret yoga pants have just the amount of high waist (though not erkelish) and spandex to do the trick!

I agree with everyone on doing more strength training. I lost 40 lbs and did weight training with heay weights and saw good muscle tone. When I say heavy weight I mean as much a you can lift using proper form and for a normal about of sets/reps. Women's bodies don't build muscle the same as men, so don't worry about…

Do you notice any difference in your body and clothes? I'm the same way on the scale but will notice in my clothes. You may have hit a plateau already too and should mix up your routine a little.

I understand the desire to want to look good for family. I only go home about 3 times a year and know my family expects me to look a certain way. Very motivating!

I always take hard boiled eggs into work for extra protien (I only eat the whites typically). String cheese and cottage cheese are my other protien snacks.

I have 10 lbs to lose before my Jamaican vacation on June 5th! No better time than now to start losing!
