Breafast ideas
I have finally got a routine for lunches on the go but I am having such a hard time with breakfast. I feel like I end up stopping every morning just for a bagel or croissant which aren't even healthy. I'm thinking maybe a yogurt, piece of fruit and some almonds?

I read that you should really switch it up…

This is probably a dumb question but I see all these protein shakes and meal replacement shakes and wonder what the hype is all about. Are they for weight loss?

Anyone have weight loss success and NOT limit their fruit intake?
I read a lot of articles that say its important not to eat too much fruit when trying to lose weight. I am trying to eat healthy overall and tend to eat fruit when I get a craving for sweets, which is pretty often. I want to know if I can still be successful even if I have a piece or two of fruit a day.

Need a fitness routine
I have an extremely hard time motivating myself if I don't have some type of routine to follow. I don't have the money to join a gym or hire a personal trainer. I have about 60 + lbs to lose. Anyone have any success creating some type of plan to follow? If so can you please share? Thanks
