Since i don't seem to be having too much luck with this diet, although i haven't cheated at all...i thought i'd re-evaluate my habits to figure out what the hell is going on. it's been almost three weeks now, and nothing has changed. now granted i was a pretty healthy eater to begin with, and i really only have about 15-20 lbs to lose, but i was expected something new by now.
so, here's my question...i've only been exercising about 4 times in three weeks, how many of you have been exercising, and how much are you going? if you're not exercising, are you still losing weight/inches???
thanks for the help!

I don't exercise per say, I walk my dogs at night when it's not too cold and am running with my kids taking them to the mall or whatever so I get SOME exercise.
With that said I have been doing well on the diet and haven't cheated until last night.
Mon: Weights Chest & Triceps, light weight/high rep
30 to 40 minute cardio (either stationary bike or treadmill)
Tue: Winsor Pilates 20 minute tape for stomach and legs
45 to 60 minute cardio (typically walk/jog @ track)
Wed: Weights Back & Biceps, light weight/high rep
30 to 40 minute cardio (either stationary bike or treadmill)
Thu: Winsor Pilates 15 minute tape for stomach
45 to 60 minute cardio (typically walk/jog @ track)
Fri: Weights Shnoulders & Triceps, light weight/high rep
30 to 40 minute cardio (either stationary bike or treadmill)
Sat: 45 to 60 minute cardio (typically walk/jog @ track)
I think that exercise will definitely make a difference. Not only that, but your heart is a muscle, too, and needs to be exercised as well. Let me know if you have any questions.

yesterday:
part skim string cheese
greek salad
15 cashews
chicken baked with canned tomatoes
green beans
64 ozs of water
part skim ricotta mocha dessert(love these!)
Do you eat breakfast? If so how much and what? I try to fill myself in the morning. I'm usually really hungry anyways. I have an omelet or scrambled eggs with all the omelet ingredients. Depends on how much time I have. I put it all in a bowl and cook it. Or have hard boiled eggs. I like the ricotta creme too. Have you tried the almond one...it's good!
Best of luck to you!

Yep, I agree with Jenn, I don't see any breakfast in there, you need to add that.
Michelle
but if you guys think i should be forcing myself to eat even if i'm not hungry...then i can try eating a little more. and i promise you - i'm not at my ideal weight - i'm only 5 foot 2, and 141 lbs. about 10 - 20 lbs overweight.
thanks again!
Jennifer I try to exercise 30-60 minutes every day.

Yup sounds to me like you aren't eating enough... and sometimes when that happens you DO lose your appetite.
