Down 35lbs...Exercise 3-4 times aweek and making much better food choice...Any ideasthat I can use to get better results.... I plan to be down 100lbs by November.

A personal trainer will push you beyond plateaus. Also, I always do better in an exercise class like yoga, spinning, zumba...anything where there's a group. It makes me work a lot harder when I think others are looking at me If I'm alone I tend to be a lot easier on myself. Best of luck!

Here's my advice- be sure you are working up a bit of a sweat when you workout. In my opinion if you don't, your really not working hard enough to get the results you want. Are you eating low carb, low fat? That has really worked for me, I lost 107 pounds in about 10 months. I also second the idea of getting a trainer. It really does help keep you motivated. I do weights with a trainer 3 days a week. Also, the more muscle you have, the higher your metabolism is. Hope all this helps. Take care.

Make sure you are weighing your calories and tracking everything you eat. While your goal is attainable, it is pretty high. Maybe set mini-goals instead so you don't feel as if you've failed if you dont lose 100lbs by November.

Keep exercising. If you're working out do some HIIT AND weight lifting. You burn just as many calories, if not more calories when you lift weights. More muscle mass = more calories burning when you're doing absolutely nothing

All of the above is good advice. I started at 383 and lost 100lbs in 7 months. And during that time, the MAIN exercise I did was walking. Started with walking up and down the driveway, every day I took a few more steps until I was walking 1 mile. Then 2 miles.

If you're already at the gym, GREAT!! A trainer is definitely a worthwhile investment. Just don't let a trainer who isn't familiar with bandster eating advise you on your food intake. You can listen and say "uh huh" and "ok" and then follow what your doctor/nurse/nutritionist/dietician advises.

What I did, besides walking, was to measure my protein (3 or 4oz) and my veggies (1/2 cup). I ate (and still eat) lowfat protein and low carb veggies. Very little to no bread, rice, pasta, bread or corn. I used livestrong.com/thedailyplate to track all my intake. I allow myself 100 calories of some kind of treat daily... usually the 100 calorie packs of chocolate roasted almonds.

If you have the funds available, I would also highly recommend some kind of Heart Rate Monitor. Polar is a good choice, you can get a good model for around 100.00. Fitbit might be a good choice. Bodybugg or Bodyfit Media are also options. I have a Polar HRM and it really helps to see exactly how many calories I'm burning during a workout.

You can do this!
