Snack on carrots instead of pretzals or chips and try to eat more salds and vegetables at any meals, so you fill up on vegetables instead of carbs and proteins.
Maybe try WW, I have lost 22 pounds on it, and alot of other girls have lost weight on it too.

Re: Ladies please help with your ideas!
if you drink too much water you might be retaining it and on the outside look like youve gained weight
waters good but just keep that in mind
what about stomach exercises at your desk where you squeeze your butt and stomach and work out a bit
take a 5 minute break from staring at the computer and do these it might help?

Salsa is zero points on WW isn't it?? You can dip carrots and broccoli and veggies in it--i thought it sounded gross @ first too but my friend got me into it!

Salsa is no points on WW!
I don't really recommend this as a crash diet or anything, so don't take this the wrong way, but when I started with my nutritionist, she had me stop carbs for a week to boost my weight loss. Not all carbs, but she had me cut out bread, potatoes, rice, pasta, etc. for a week. Then the next week she added back like maybe a carb at dinner, but a salad for lunch. It's not that you cut carbs out altogether, just at first. And you lose a lot of water weight that way. Just a thought.

Special K cereal promotes a quick-start diet to lose about 6 lbs. in 2 weeks - a bowl of Special K for breakfast and one for lunch (with skim milk) then a sensible dinner.

Do you eat dinner late?
That's my problem-due to our schedules, DH and I often eat at 7:30-8 PM. It's sooo bad to go to sleep on a full belly. Eat your fullest meal earlier in the day.
Summer is coming, start snacking on fruit!!
The girls in my office 'do the stairs' each afternoon. We're up to 14 flights! It's tough, but its fun with everyone's support.
