I started today. I'm hopeful. Going to drink lots of water today as I've heard that minimizes the side effects. SW 197 GW 130

Just tried these for the first time this week. I'm drinking the blackberry now. Very subtle. Good change from plain water from time to time.

Such an amazing accomplishment! Congratulations!

I'm not seeing well out of them. I see better out of my glasses, but both Rx's are from the same time (around Aug 2016). I don't know if the contacts aren't fitting as well or if it is the Rx. I've only lost about 20 lbs, so this is just a bit weird and unexpected. I'll just have a check-up and let the doc figure out…

Haha. Yes, age is a factor. But I should say that my eye sight appears to be improving. I can see better without my contacts/glasses that I could several months ago. That is what is surprising me.

Well...I had slightly elevated levels - not quite pre-diabetic, but just elevated. Haven't had those checked in a while. I want to wait until I've been doing well for about 3 solid months before I repeat the lab testing. I'm not having any other health issues. BP is actually lower-normal, cholesterol (at last check) was…

Me too. Same username. Rini_s

Good morning, ladies! Working from home today so I can help MIL and go check out a wedding venue with DD and DFutureS and DH early after I am off work. I've been on plan for the week, but the dreaded weekend is upon me. I love weekends, but they don't help my healthier eating lifestyle. I'm hoping that the weekend won't…

Yesterday - logged, kettlebelled and stepped over 10,000. I was busy last night. Just for today - Same as yesterday. Walking at lunch which will help me get time to clean my bathroom tonight.

I'm so sorry, Mary. My thoughts and prayers go out to your family. I haven't lost a child, but I know this must be devastating. I'm sure as Karen said, this was a horrible coincidence.

I think it looks great.

Today started off with coming down to my kitchen sink and finding the dish rag bound up in the garbage disposal. Now, my kids are 22 and 25 and neither would own up to it. Oh my goodness I was ticked off. It was stuck in there so well that I couldn't get it to budge. DH and I know WE didn't do it. Arghhhhh. DH got the rag…

Just for today... Log everything Kettlebell 10,000 steps (since it's 3:25pm and I've only logged 2500 steps, I'm a little concerned about hitting this, lol)

Way to go, Pip! You are amazing!

Happy August! I didn't really have goals for July...just getting started was an accomplishment. Goals for August - Vacation happens in August - so the biggest goal is to not go backwards so soon out of the gate - Log every day - even during vacation time - Make reasonable choices while eating out, bring health snacks and…

Log & make healthier choices Re-starting kettlebell work with lighter weight - was so sore after first time last week I didn't continue for the week Just keep going with my plan - I need to strive for continued progress, not perfection and not all or nothing mentality
