My suggestion is don't diet...diets dont work because as soon as you start eating normal again it all comes back....just eat littler meals and eat more often to boost metabolism. And eat healthy!! Drink plenty of water and just eat right... get veggies and fruits in you and stay away from fried anything.



Yea I agree.....Eat healthy with a treat once a week and exercise.......It's a life change...

I am dieting and I also signed up for CKO Kickboxing which is amazing and you guaranteed to have amazing results. I haven't gone all summer so I really need to get back in gear. You should check out their website, they are located in Copiague...not sure if that's close to you or not.

YES! ... LOL I'm great at drastic diets!
1-no alcohol
2-go to the gym every other day...do at least 40 mins of cardio and then either legs, abs or arms
3-tea or coffee and special K for breakfast
4-cucumbers and turkey breast for lunch (NO BREAD) OR 2 yogurts with fruit
5-veggies or salad for dinner

Follow this and you should drop pounds in no time!!! HTH!

I have been keeping a food journal which works for me because I like to hold myself accountable and if I write it down, it is much easier.
In general, trying to eat less and I have been going to the gym for 4-5 days a week and doing a variety of things, cardio, weights and pilates.
Also started weighing myself, bc weights seems to creep up on me.
My greatest motivation is of course the wedding, which is still pretty far away and seeing my old clothes in my closet that I used to be able to fit in 3 years ago, when I was 20-30 pounds lighter.

We can do this....

I am just watching what I eat. A few months ago I stopped eating carbs after 7pm, ate healthier, and went to the gym 3 times a week and I lost 10 lbs in two weeks. But I stopped and gained it back becasue I went on vacation. I just started doing it again this week so we will see. I make sure I eat a salad for lunch and usually cereal with fruit for breakfest and some sort of grilled chicken or beef for dinner with a veggie. As snacks during the day I have a 100 calorie pack and some fruit. Good luck!!

I'm not going to diet per se, but I have a great suggestion that really works. If you're a big coffee drinker, try to wean yourself off of sugar. I went from using 4 tablespoons (!!!) to half a teaspoon, and lost a few pounds inadvertantly. Also, drink water throughout the day, no soda or milk. Bellydancing is also great for exercise, it lengthens the muscles so it makes you toned and thin looking. There's DVDs for it, and it's really fun too, doesnt feel like exercising.
