| Best way to lose weight!! Compete with your husband!! LOL My husband and I have been on a diet together. Not really starting off with it being a competition but well...he started it! LOL He started losing a bit more than me and teasing me about it, so I really got dedicated and this morning we weighed ourselves and I am down 10 pounds!! HE'S ONLY DOWN 9! Hahahahaha! I can't believe what just 10 pounds will do for your figure. I can see the difference in both of us. We both have a ways to go before we are at our goals of course, but just wanted to share our news. I hope we can stick to this, my husband has some pretty sever health issues that have popped up from being overweight and well I have 2 pregnancies to still work off. |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | LOLOL !! GOOD For you guys ! I'd love to hear how it goes Jodi....I'm having such a time losing - I have to diet while I watch my husband eat anything he wants and it sucks !! Though for me - the best incentive is looking at PICTURES of myself - and while I never let anyone take pictures now - my family sneaks in some shots at dinners....that always does the trick. |

It's hell when you have no hormones left - mine are SO wacked that it's really really hard to lose. My advise to you is - do this while you're young - the older you get the harder and more depressing it is to diet. my excuse for not using my treadmill is there is NO TV IN THERE ! I need one so bad and I think I'd use the treadmill if I had one | |

| Jodie, what helpsl me is to be foced and live that healthy lifestle permanently rather than fad diets. eat healthy, lots of fish and chicken and veggies and avoid too much junk food. Also, I used to measure out what I eat size wise until eventually you can eyeball it. You'll be amazed at how much this helps when you proportion everything. Moderation is key in my life. This way, you can have fun and eat what you like (an occasional steak or burger) and allow yourself to 'cheat' on weekends. |

| Good for you Jodi!!! Keep up the great work. It's awesome to diet together and you'll keep each other motivated. If you need any ideas for healthy treats, let me know. I have competed in figure/fitness competitions and know a lot of dieting, good treats, etc.
