  • I used to be a WW leader. It is a great program and very sustainable. The only gripe I had was as a leader I was not to tell members not to eat processed and packaged items.( maybe because they sell packaged food?) In theory it was okay to eat whatever you want as long as you stay within your point range. A calorie is not…
  • Jamie Eason's protein cinnamon bread (recipe at bodybuilding.com) Tastes so good at 55 calories and 5 gm protein per piece. And one scoop whey with 1 cup coffee, vanilla, creatine and ice.
  • Does Ovaltine have added sugar? If it does I would skip it. If whey protein is not something you want to use make a shake of nonfat greek, banana or berries and one tablespoon of 100% dark cocoa.

  • That is the point where you know you are really going to make it. You have established the connection between your stomach and brain. Congratulations it is a very big deal!
  • The best thing about a fitbit or any tracker is that it makes you mindful. I am much more aware of what I want to accomplish when I am faced with the truth of it. I have a Charge without the HR. I also can track my workouts by pushing a button that times it for me. Not all trackers do this and to me it is a critical…
  • I hope you don't do anything without your surgeon's okay. I think walking is always a good idea once the anethesia is out of your system. Just take it slowly so you don't hurt your surgery results.
