I am a paralegal for a major toy company, LOVE it!

have a salad first a slice of the pizza and freeze the rest!

If you have a Stop & Shop near you, it's in the organic section.

apples, baby carrots, celery, bueberries, any other fruit or veggie that doesn't need to be cold. Also i spend a few cents more and buy the 100 calorie size baggies for my snack. It's lind of a mind trick. You don't see a half full baggies and thing wow i want more. Plus they are convient or your bag/purse.

Nike Free are supposedly very good since they don't cushion too much and train your feet into bad habits; newr research suggests that too much cushioning in shoes leaves you at higher injury risk.

 Though I think that overall, you're better off visiting a specialty running store and have the staff there look at the wear pattern on your current footwear to recommend a model that'll suit you.

 I agree, you should visit a running shoe store. I tried several pairs with no luck and then I went to a running store and found the perfect pair, Nike. Can't remember the specific model.

I love to make sugar free Jello with fresh or frozen fruit in it. I then put a little bit of Cool Whip Free on top. I always make in in individual size serving dishes so I won't eat the entire thing at once.

thank you!

I do get my heart pumping. Now that i am running on a regular basis I will be investing in a heart rate monitor.

I am so glad that you posted your success. I am 27 yrs old 5'3 and 127 pounds. I have been trying to lose 7 pounds now for a while. It was great to read your story since our stats are so similar. Congrats on the weight loss you look great! 

I started my weight loss journey at 185 lbs and that was 10 years ago.

Thanks everyone! I really just needed to vent and hear some encouraging words. Sometimes i do tend to get wrapped up in the caloreis and counting and weighing. I thin ki just needed to step back and re-evaluate the situation.

Thanks everyone! I did have 3 oz of grilled chicken over a salad.

my all time fave "guilty" snack is sugarfree jello with fruit mixed in and cool whip free. You feel like you are eating the biggest most guilty snack ever and if you prtion it oit its like 55 calories for a serving.

Well i'm 5'2 128 lbs and a 4 my sister is 5'5 138lbs and she wears a 4 also. Now here comes the big difference in us I wear a 32D and she wears a 32FF/G. So I would say yes your boobs can make a difference. And your boobs are big but not huge, my sister has huge boobs, lol!

Hopefully, just try not to be tempted to eat those few pcs that don't make it to the plates!

This might sound stupid or like it might not work but get some gum or brush your teeth. It is proven and it helps me, the minty flavor will help (note i did not say stop) your urge to snack.

Hope it helps!

I am so in as well. I also have just 10 more lbs to lose and it just won't budge.  A little about me I'm a paralegal so i sit most of the day. I try to do cardio at lunch 3 times a week. I also go the the gym 4 time a week and do cardio and lift. thias is my first group and I hope it helps becoause nothing else seems to work.
