My Polar FT4 synced with my tredmill today... it was weird. But it was my correct heart rate!

You got this! :)

That sounds like me. But I'm slowly adding different foods into my diet. I started out with 2-3 protein shakes, tilapia with evoo, & hummus with pita chips a day. The protein shakes are what made me hit my calorie goal. Like you, I get enough calories but eat the same thing everyday, so I totally understand.

I'm on a low carb-high protein diet too... well, lifestyle change. But I say diet because it's what I eat. ANYWAY! What's your tdee & how much cals do you get a day?

Great! Thanks :)

I have no problem with the money for it. I'll be spending about $200 a month & that's nothing. Nobody else in my house eats healthy so it's all mine. I do this on weekends, or as much as I can because I'd rather just drink my meals. It's easier on my stomach.

Thank you all for ideas :) I have the Jack Lalanne juicer, & you're right it doesn't do bananas or avocados as they contain no juice. I did have a blender but no one was using it so it's packed away.. it was loud anyway. But I'm DEFINITELY trying yalls recipes!!

Not this one. It keeps the fiber... the tray you empty out barely has anything in it. & thanks for giving me ideas!! :)

The juicer I bought is top of the line.. it doesn't take out fiber.

My cat should add lots of protein.. thanks! haha. & diabetes runs in my family, so I cut sugar to 45 grams a day. But when I'm juicing I might not even count it. Idk.

Thanks :) yeah it is definitely motivation!! I need to start a squat challenge, but on this app called bodyspace I created an exercise program to start me off for 6 weeks. It ends December 1st. Then, since it's gonna be too cold to go for walks, I'm gonna sign up at my local gym & TRY to do the elliptical, which in the…

The depo shot "makes women gain weight" because it increases their appetite. Every bc affects your hormones & the depo affects the hormone (idk what it's called) that makes you want to eat more. With exercise & a healthy diet, you should be good. Have you been on it before? I ask because with me, it messed up my period. I…

Hey I'm Emmie. Known as the former constant binge eater. I am 14 days clean & never wanna go back! I'm 18, but will be 19 in January. I walk, belly dance, & do any strength training I feel like doing. I need to step out of my comfort zone & feel some good pain for once. That's why I'm here, hoping this group can help me :)

Good for you! I'm 14 days binge free & hope I last as long as you are.

I say step out of your comfort zone & do it!

Add me & message me. I know what it's like to be too stressed out & overwhelmed to even start the weight loss journey. I can help you tons! :)

Yes. That's one foot exercise I do. Also, while standing, lift your heels up & down. I have soo many foot & leg exercises you can try! Just google them.

Just read up on that & it said basically do what I do. After exercise, ice your feet then elevate them. Wear insoles. Have rest days! You need to take care of that because if it gets worse you might need surgery... same for me :/

Drink 1-2 liters before 3pm when you work at 6.. 6pm when you work at 9. Problem should be solved.

Thanks & I will!

Have you calculated your tdee? If not, type in tdee in google & a website called iifym.com will pop up. Read the directions after you put in your stats & find out your tdee.

What times do you work? From when to when?

This will be my billionth time trying to lose weight. So far I've lost 8 pounds! It was water weight but still. 8 freakin pounds!!! This time around I'm more determined than ever! Feel free to add me yall :)

If I follow it & succeed I will lose 14 pounds in 6 weeks. That's 2.3 pounds a week. So then I'll just have to lose 6 pounds in the last 4 weeks of…

LOL that's weird that you did receive a call from a friend! Haha. But yeah, I would say get back on track tomorrow but you already are on track :)
