That sounds good! Hopefully it doesn't have to be food based, I have eaten no flour or processed sugars in 4 weeks, and absolutely can't stand fake sugar. I think I am going to Simply do SOME kind of exercise daily...no drama, just move.

The definition of insanity is asking the same question and expecting a different answer. :#

No you don't need a pressure cooker. The best thing is to soak them at least overnight before starting to cook. I always change the water at that point. Red beans are not spicy. You need to add your spices to them. I use usually, cayenne pepper or any hot pepper you like along with salt. They are basically plain until you…

Never has a pic up!

Radishes, celery, bell peppers. I don't do the croutons because I am not doing any flour, and no white sugar in my plan.

I was also thinking that most older people are not smoking as much as younger people, and with age we sometimes have that middle-age spread or weight gain from pregnancy, etc. [/quote] Well, I am an older person, and I STILL have my weight gain from pregnancy, baby is now 36. And I used to smoke like a chimney! Pleading…

I don't like tight clothes, but I do try to wear clothes that are somewhat fitted. If I wear baggy I get too comfortable, and stray from my food plan. Looking in the mirror helps too.. ugh!

I watched an episode of I think it was the Ellen Show when one of the winners of one of those Extreme weight loss shows. The question came up...what about the boobs? The girl who lose over 100 lbs said she was a 48DD and now a nice 34 Long. LOLOLOL...sorry I do hope I lose a bit. I am 46DD and my neck and shoulders need a…

What is an aliens favorite place on a computer? The space bar. :D

Good for you! You are looking good. Keep up the good work! 30 pounds is a big deal! 3 10lb bags of potatos! Whoot Hoot!

My suggestion is simple. Eat right and exercise regularly. Seeing you are 19, I beg of you to start good eating habits now along with exercise. I wish I had started being mindful when I was younger. Now at 61, I am facing a battle that I only wish was 10 pounds. You don't need any magic pill, or cleanse or any fancy…

Did she/he ask you to join for the "$ saving 5 year plan".? 40%..that is outrageous. You should be eating every day you need fuel to burn.

Do you think we are weird?

Happy Birthday ! I am starting my journey. The one that is going to be successful. :smiley: It is a journey, and picking up friends, and ideas along the way is part of it!

Pretty thick skinned. My feeling is that if you post something, the next line of business is getting other points of view. If you don't want to hear it, don't post.

Only if you are ruled by societies expectations! Society doesn't fail us, we fail ourselves IMO.

As a newbie here, this info is great! There is much confusion on which choice is the best one.

New here. What is the 21 day fix?

Great post! I agree with your observations. Portions are important, but also for me...I have to stay away from trigger foods. My mantra is the same as the one I used when I quit smoking cold turkey. "I want to be healthy and fit MORE than I want that extra helping....or dessert....or whatever will trip me up! Thank you for…

I have 106 to lose..I recently started going to a facility where I weigh in weekly, and get nutritional and medical care. Since starting on 8/10 I have lost 15 pounds. I have been on low carb, high protein Atkins like plan. I have not had white sugar or any flour products since that day, and guess what? I feel great! I…

I try to mix it up, but on weekdays, usually do something easy. I do a scrambled egg in a mug with whatever veggies I have on hand.

Unbelievable! You look great! Thank you for sharing your story, truly an inspiration!

That is awesome! It is so rewarding !
