HELP!
I started out 5 weeks ago at 158lbs (I'm 5'1") the first two weeks I walked 2 miles a day on the treadmill, the 2nd two weeks I bumped it up to 3 miles now I'm doing 4 miles a day and I've also been doing JM 30 day shred videos.

I want to lose about 40-50 lbs but I don't know if I should be doing strength…

What Do You Eat?
I'm new here so forgive me if this post is not in the correct forum. My question is, what do y'all eat to lose weight? I need some good meal plans with NORMAL stuff (oatmeal, grilled chicken, etc) I'm a pretty picky eater and I just want something that's normal and not too involved. Also, are six meals a day necessary? I…
