  • I lost all my weight (75 lbs and still counting) and my exercise for the most part just consisted of walking! Of course with it being winter and still being cold here in Michigan, I have totally missed my walks. Some people walk in the cold, but as I continue to drop in weight cold goes right through to my bones and its…
  • My Why, this is extremely powerful to me as this is what makes me continue my Journey. I was so sick last year, that I had to be hospitalized. This was my worst experience ever and I swore to myself I would never be put in the Hospital again if I could help it. No words can describe the Horror that I went through. With my…
  • The last two days, I did more exercise than I have done since starting this Journey 6 months ago. Between the two days (only 2 days), I walked a total of 16 miles (8 miles each day) and did 5 miles on the Elliptical. I usually avg 12-15 miles a week and no elliptical. This is extreme exercising for me and I'm too old to be…
  • There is no miracle solution, and this is hard work! You need to determine your WHY, on why you want to do this and make that your motivation. So when I start to slip I always remember my why and I seem to get back right on track. Many people diet, and diet's dont work as this really has to be a lifestyle change. I…
  • I didn't come on this site in attempt to advertise. Since I had the success that I have had, I do now sell this particular item. So in order to not to get in trouble for sharing information that I should not be I went ahead and sent you a Friend Request with the information that you requested.
  • Good Morning, my name is Virginia and I currently live in Mason, Michigan (my 5th state). I occasionally keep reading posts, but didn't really use this as a tool like I should have (my bad). My journey so far has been amazing, but when I slip I do it badly (at least I am human) :) . Would love a group of friends that holds…
  • Hi, Those are awesome goals :) If you need a friend for encouragement, please don't hesitate to add me. Just from my experience It will be critical to detox your body, and you will slowly stop craving those bad foods. I supplement my daily intake with a nutrition drink and detox now every 2 weeks and now I love vegetables…
  • You mentioned you are walking for exercise, is it a leisure walk or are you getting your heart rate up for an extended period of time? As I am only asking, as I only walk and I do at least an hour and out of that hour my heart rate is up in the high range for 75% of the time (except for Starting and when I am almost…
  • Feel free to add me also, I already lost 55 lbs (almost 6 months) and I still need to lose another 50 lbs. I'm doing by just reducing my calories and drinking this awesome Health Nutrious drink. Some days are better than others of course, so I can use all the motivation I can get (along with providing some)
  • That is so AWESOME! Keep up the good work! Many people think this is a quick fix, and it's not. You really have to change the way you think about food. So this must be a lifestyle change, and for some you need to make drastic changes. We owe it to ourselves to find what works best for each of us and stick to it, this is…
  • Hi, I am 55 years old and I started my Weight loss journey 5 months ago (once again). My starting weight was 251 lbs. when I weighed in on Wednesday 9/14 (2 days ago) I am down to 198.6 (52 lb weight loss). The fact that when I stepped on the scale and saw a 1 instead of a 2 was more than exciting (hard to explaine). I…
  • I had my gallbladder out last year (July 4th), due to the bad infection they had to cut me open to get mine out. Only the first 2-3 months I had to watch what I ate, but now I can eat everything including Ice Cream. In the meantime, I have changed from what I was eating before to more healthy choices. That's only because I…
  • Down 40, but still have another 50 to lose. I'm also looking for friends for support
  • Check out Ripstix Fitness line, as they have Fuel and Ignite.
  • You need to eat Healthy, exercise and give your body the nutrients that it needs along with drinking 1/2 of your weight in water. I found this awesome product, unlike all others. I stopped taking all of my vitamins and only drink this one drink in the morning. I feel better and have more energy, to the point that I am now…
