How is your first week going?

It works as long as you follow it. I am one month on the plan, no cheats. I lost 20.6 lbs so far. That is a lot for a woman, so probably quite a bit was water weight, but still one awesome month!

I will have to try that. How long do you cook it in the instant pot?

I am sorry to hear about the blood cancer. I had a dear friend pass of that. I think it is a great dedication to him and his life. I am not a hiker, but there is a group here in the area called Fat Girls Hiking. I do want to try to go to one of their events this summer if I am up for it. I am doing really good with the…

Hi everyone! Samantha here: High: 330 Ultimate Goal:170 Goal: 230 Current: 315

I have been on plan for 13 days and have lost 12 pounds so that is great. The bars are the nicest and easy, but try not to do more than two a day. I really like mixing a chocolate chip cookie (it is great alone too) with a pancake in the mini waffle iron and making a waffle. It is super quick and yummy. The drinks are…

Good luck everyone!! I am happy to read your progress and new beginnings!

I’m sorry you gained it back. I know from personal experience how devastating gaining the weight back can be. I hope you are having success sticking with the program. 👍🏼[/quote] I am in a better space personally. I was in a bad marriage, was sick and my mom passed away. It was just a great deal to manage. If possible, not…

Good luck! It is a program that works. I have done so many diets, this is one that is a no brainer for me. It makes it super easy. I just need to keep track of my meals and then I am fine. If you haven’t heard I suggest buying a mini waffle maker. They are really cheap and it is so much nicer for the pancakes and cookie…

I lost 80lbs before, 50 because of Optavia. I gained it back so now I am trying to start the program again. I am on day 3.

I also like roller coasters. It is definitely something that can get very embarrassing if you can’t get the restraint down, at least for me. I am on day 3. So far so good. I don’t have the hunger issues the first days that other people seem to have. I am hoping that the weight goes off faster. The last time I had a hard…

I restarted it. I am on day 3. I lost 80lbs before, but gained it all back due to illness, medications and poor choices. I know the program works as long as you work it. I need to get the weight down for my health and happiness.
