Ht. 5'6, Wt. 179 - Hey when I first started dieting I came to this site and it's been great...now I've come back after a couple of months with my so-far results...I've lost 27 lbs since dieting which started on February 15...I'm hoping to lose 54 more to get to my goal weight 125. I know I'm doing things right since I've lost a lot but still...I wish it would go faster you know? My stomach is probably the main thing and where most of the weight comes from, I do 100 situps everyday ...anything else to make it go in? Also...
I heard somewhere that pretzels were bad for dieting
I thought pretzels were good for a snack when dieting...? other than potato chips or something.
I like pretzels, should I not go on with them?
I drink lots of water also but pretzels is the type of junk food...I grab like 4 or 5 a day for a snack.
I did not think it was an unhealthy food.
Thanks and Good Luck to all of you! :)

what kind of pretzels? the big ones aren't really healthy, but the small ones are pretty good for you. just watch out for the salt.
