Great job ladies!! I love seeing progress pics!! I started my weight loss again after losing and gaining a few times. I’m 5’2, My heaviest was 243, I’m currently 224. I’m going hard hard hard!!

Ohhhhh!!!!! Ok. Some days I do no carbs at all. My usual is high protein and veggies, I've been losing 1 to 2 lbs a week.

Low carb high protein is what has been working for me. (Yes I know low carbs is high on fat, not high protein:) I say "low carbs" because I have still been having fruits and some dairy but lesser amounts. And high protein because my usual meals consist of lean meats, eggs, etc. I am truly trying to make a lifestyle change.…

Hello! I use meal replacement shakes bought from CVS. It says it's Soy 130 cals and if I get a deal I have also bought Herbalife. I like them both, vanilla/cookies n creme flavor and it fills me up. However, I usually replace Only my lunches Mon-Friday .. busy at work or running errands during my lunch, shakes just work…

I don't often snack. But when I do I want something crunchy and salty. So my go to is pork cracklings, macadamia nuts, pepperoni, beef sticks.

You're off to a great start! I love Zumba, I do a class once a week. Then I alternate between home YouTube workouts on Fitness Blender/weights, gym mostly on elliptical and treadmill and Sundays my sisters and I jog/walk the hills.

Awesome! And welcome!

Hello. Yes I have, I actually mentioned it in my original post. Fitness blender and Zumba are my go to

Thank you!

It's funny how I post about juicing and get loads of comments but when I post for assistance in workouts I get crickets.

Is it bad to mix the ground turkey with taco seasoning? I love to do that! My favorite is mixing with squash onion bellpeppers mushrooms and jalapeños. And I love spaghetti so I'll usually make a zucchini noodle in replacement for the noodles with all the above ingredients and add a little bit of spaghetti sauce

:)

No doubt about that! Lol Everyone is entitled to their opinion, I ain't trippin off of anybody's comment. Some have actually been informative, info that I've taken into consideration and may apply to my journey. Bottom line though, ain't nobody doing this for me but me. It's completely my choice how I do things and whether…

This was actually funny. Lol But trying things out that are not harmful is quite alright in my book

Will do!

I'm on my second day and feeling good and only plan on doing it til Friday. I'm still getting the nutrients needed, HOWEVER, If I begin feeling anything other than good then I will most definitely switch it up. I'm not trying to harm myself.

Very informative

Thank you!

Maybe 3?

I appreciate everyone's input/opinions/comments. Wish you All an amazing weight loss journey!

Thanks for your comment, I suspected this post wouldn't sit well with some. But at the end of the day, as I mentioned, I like to jump into different diets for fun. I don't feed into pills or rapid weight loss solutions .. Weight loss is hard work and a great accomplishment. I know the "trick" is to eat well and exercise…

Hello! The type of post I was looking for!! :) I'm juicing this week.. I started today, i'm hoping to be strong willed in having a shake for breakfast with low fat milk, a "shake" for lunch but with water and juicing for dinner! I bought the "naked" juices. However, my snacks Will be solids. I have juiced for a week in the…

Hello! When I lost weight last year I began to notice the difference when I lost about 25 pounds. Then I went from 242 to 190 and was down from an 18 to ALMOST an 11. That felt great! HOWEVER, after an accident I unfortunately went back up to 234 lbs. sooo my size 11's are patiently waiting in the closet

Thank you!

I completely agree! I too have came back stronger and more knowledgeable each time! Yay us!!

Thank you!
