Yeah I know...Replace the fudgecicle with carrots... Yeah I know... it sucks but whenever I gain weight that is not supposed to be there I have to beat it back with veggies. I'd rather be eating goldfish crackers or triscuits or some other crackery thing but the veggies are better for me as well as providing that essential fiber (ie; poo more lose more). If you drink soda... stop entirely. I lost 5 lbs just from stopping that. If you drink anything that has lots of sugar in it for that matter cut it in 1/2 with water (even juice). More water, less sugar. These tips all come from a more healthy and fit than I husband who is also a physical ed teacher as you already know. <BR/><BR/>Cliche sayings to get you through:<BR/>Slow and steady wins the race.

(Where you lost 125 lbs?) <BR/><BR/>I'm 5'3 at 175 pounds, therefore i could stand to lose 40 pounds too! <BR/>I know i need to exercise and stretch more and thats my biggest obstacle, so kudo's to you for conquering that!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998040.post-1122942214936436802005-08-01T20:23:00.000-04:002005-08-01T20:23:00.000-04:00I have to admit I like Leanne Ely's cookbook, "Sav...I have to admit I like Leanne Ely's cookbook, "Saving Dinner The Low Carb Way." It's not that I believe in the Atkins thing, but I know if I stay away from the potatoes and bagels I can lose the weight when working out. Otherwise I just maintain. Anyway, I like her book because she has some low carb side dishes that make you feel like you're having carbs: rutabega fries (which even my 4-year-old loves!), mashed cauliflower, spaghetti squash. It really gets you in touch with the produce department.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07843760065614670505noreply@blogger.com
