    Good morning everyone I;ve been on strict cycle one for the last three days trying to drop the 3lbs I out on due to sodium and TOM's visit. Weighed in this morning and down 6.2 lbs. I love this way of eating because it is truly realistic and makes me feel so much better.

    Today haven't really planned my meals yet so playing it by ear, will make sure I pack a plum, apple slices, and a greek yogurt for my snacks though.

    Finished Zumba for the morning and probably playing Kinect tonight, I also ordered the Biggest Loser Workout Challenge which I can't wait to get here :)

    Have a great day ladies and btw what type of yogurts are you guys eating?

    My faves are the Chobani, Dannon and Fage.

    That is awesome you dropped 6lbs!!!

    As for the yogurt question: I eat Publix Brand. Low Fat with Fruit on the bottom.

    :smile: AAAAAAHHHHHHH! :smile: I weighed in at 179.2 this morning. I was 180.6 yesterday! ( HOOORAAAAYY) :drinker: :drinker: I reached my goal before November 1 and it's all because of the 17 DD. :drinker: My ultimate goal is/was 175, (i'm 5'9) but I think I may shoot for 165 and do a lot of strength training and body sculpting workouts on my way there. Have a Fabulous Day!!!!:flowerforyou:

    thanks, i retain water like crazy, so everything i eat has to be low\no sodium or i balloon up. so during my "i hurt my leg" weeks, i was over doing the lazy foods...like mcdonalds. im sure 1\2 the weight was water weight, but its also my TOM, so im kinda excited to see where the scale goes after its gone!
    also with that link, ive fallen in love with the "chinese fried rice" recipe, obviously in cycle 1 theres no real rice, but it makes a huge pan, and 1\2 of its 200 cals! and very filling!

    Hey Everyone!

    Didn't get a chance to get on the computer this working. So last night I planned on getting a grilled chicken salad from the restaurant, but instead I got a grilled chicken sandwich - minus the bread. It was really good! I ended up taking it to go and ate dinner with my boyfriend. I heated the chicken up along with some carrots/broccoli. I also had 3 fries!! I could not help myself! They smelt soooo good. I am back on track today and I am going to try and stay away from those types of foods - and restaurants in general.

    Today I weighed myself and was at 148.2! Started this life style change at 151! So I am happy with the results so far!

    Hope everyone is doing great!

    The good part is that you got right back on track. 3 fries is okay, I chewed some about a week ago but didn't swallow....lol
