    Good Morning Ladies,

    How is everyone today? Well, I've just started out my morning with 6 egg whites, lowfat chedder, 2 slices of Turkey bacon and 8oz water. I am working out to the P90X program which is awesome. . Just to let everyone know...I am a Beachbody coach, if anyone needs any help with their fat loss journey or would like more info about the workout programs or our excellent nutritional supplements, feel free to hit me up at eager2bfit@beachbodycoach.com

    P.S: Even though you choose to eat a certain amount of calories to lose WEIGHT...just remember that losing weight also means losing muscle tissue if you are not excersing with a cardio AND strength training program. MUSCLE burns fat especially when you're at rest.


    Good Morning!! I woke up late cause i was out late last night! lol..What supplements do you take on a daily basis??

    Hi Jess,
    I currently take Shakeology and the Recovery formula. For the 1st 2 months of the program I was on the Activit, Cal-Mag, Omega3 and Slimming Formula.

    Hi Jenny,
    Are you on an exercise program? I think you should be it would really jump start your fat loss and give u much needed energy.
    And it would allow you to eat more food (healthy) than if you didn't. Just think, without exercise, you might only get to eat...what 1300 cals a day maybe. Thats not healthy in the sense that, you would be hungry often and bound to cheat. I find it much easier to have an exercise program and eat 1800 cals a day.
    You must make right food choices...you have to read the labels hun. Don't just go by what the bold wording says on the package. Processed foods are definately out of it. If you need help just let me know. If you are pressed for time and need to make a quick meal.... QVC sells this microwaveable food steamer..Awesome

    Looking like a big group, but I'd love to join too if it's not too late. I'm at 136 now, and would like to be 125...More than that though, I'd love to have more confidence in myself for who I am (inside AND out). I never seem to motivate myself enough, and would love to have some friends out there that can motivate me...this seems like it might be the group. :)

    This will sound dumb, but is there somewhere special you have to go to read posts from this group or is this the spot?

    Happy Easter! :)

    I need motivation too!

    Hi, I'm new. :)

    My first goal is to weigh 150. I currently weight 156-157. I love working out, but I'm not losing weight. Maybe counting calories will help! I've been trying to loose weight for years....

    Hi Boughey,

    What type of exercises are you doing? Are you strength training as well? My sister use to do just Cardio alone and never lost the weight. We've learned that MUSCLE burns fat along with a great eating plan for your workout program. When you think of Calories, just remember calories are nothing but energy and when you consume more than your body can work off, your body stores it for future use...AS FAT.
    You should be eating at least 5-6 times a day :huh: yes...You should eat breakfast within 15 minutes of waking up in the AM
    and every 2-3 hours through out the day.
    Breakfast
    Mid-Am Snack
    Lunch
    Mid Noon Snack
    Dinner
    Evening Snack (Optional: 3 hours before bed)

    If you need any help or more info, i'm here for you.

    Thanks! I know the basics, I have been trying to lose weight as long as I can remember. I need to do more weights, because I do 3 sets of 12 reps of something, but I am not sore at all. I must not being doing enough weight. Cardio I have down.

    I haven't really counted calories before. I'm hoping that is going to be the key factor. I have a good feeling about this.

    Yesterday, I ate weigh to much fiber, is that bad. I buy a lot of high fiber foods.

    Hello all. Hope everyone had a great Easter. Goddess this question is for you. Have the P90X and justed started week 3 Sun. The scale has oly moved about 2 lbs. but can notice a difference in the way clothes fit. I do not have the nut. guide but I am watching the calories. Is that scale going to move soon?

    So we are going to do weigh ins on Fridays right? It has been great reading what everyone has to say and I am thinking this is going to be a great group!!! :happy:
