Question

I have a goal to lose 30lbs by June. 
What foods, exercises, shakes, etc have helped you lose weight? 
Have you used protein shakes? What do you eat? How many meals? Anything will help figure this out. Thanks!

Answer

I lost 40lbs last year between April and September. My husband and I tracked our food in the My Fitness Pal app, you put in your goals and it gives you a daily calorie goal. I also started working out at home doing Les Mills on Demand workouts (similar to beach body, etc) 5 times minimum per week, 30 min each time. My husband food logged with me and we baked or grilled chicken, and prepared green veggies on the weekend so we could eat that during the week for lunch/dinner. We still indulged in things we wanted, just logged it in the app and didn’t eat/drink it If we didn’t have the calories left! It really motivated me to workout bc then i could eat those calories too, and I ate really healthy all day so I could eat some junky snacks and have a couple of adult beverages at night! I’m now 22w pregnant with my second child, still logging but just upped my daily calories and still working out about 4 days a week. Good luck!!!
