  • I work at a doctors office and normally when our patients have orthostatic hypotension (postural) we give them IV fluids as it is an indicator of being dehydrated
  • I hate it when there is a line of about 6 bikes so i pick my favorite one, the rest are empty then enevitably someone comes and sits right beside me and tries to outpedal me. Ughhh drives me crazy- Like move down a bike already
  • My doctor advises me to try it also- I’m going to give it a chance
  • I had serious bloating where I looked pregnant- I had my gallbladder out and have lost about 20 pounds
  • My co workers always order out lunch, like big stuff- chinese, jimmy johns, chick fil a, cheeseburgers, mexican, they ask everyone if they want something but me. They know I will say no I assume but it does suck that they dont even ask me. Most of the time I have to work through lunch working my butt off. It makes me mad…
  • Why do you say that you cant lose weight drinking protein shakes? If that is all she is eating for a meal and is in a calorie deficit wouldnt she lose weight? I love Isopure from GNC I only use one scoop which is 100 calories and 25 grams of protein.
  • I have not been diagnosed with Hashimotos but I have all the symptoms; My thyroid levels come back normal one month, then they come back abnormal the next. I just have ALOT of things going on in my body i dont know what to do, I was told i have Barretts esophagus, gastritis, gastroparesis, now I have gallstones that need…
  • How do you like Orange Theory??? I have a bad ankle/several surgeries on it and i cannot run/jump on it- do you think i would be able to modify their workout to join? It looks like a great place.
  • I am with you on this one! I LOVE the Sweet Cream Italian Sugar Free Creamer by Coffee Mate- I only use a small amount mixed with Cashew milk-but I live for my coffee.
  • I was having the same issue, i would wake up about an hour after being asleep and go in the kitchen and eat bread. It was like i was sleep walking, but i was awake. My PDoc put me on Topamax and it has stopped me from doing that- It has really helped.
  • Has anyone not tried the new Quest Cereal Bar? They are only 110 calories with 3 g net carbs and 12 g protein. and 6 g sugar. That sounds pretty good for a bar.
  • I take phentermine and still cant lose anything- I have lost on it in the past but not now. I am on an anti-depressant and a hormone replacement and i think they are causing me to not lose weight. I have tried everything. Nothing works
  • I tried to do keto a few weeks ago, and started from a mostly fruit and carb diet to a "fat fast" where i only ate fatty food all day- I got very sick and nauseated and my body couldnt handle all that fat. Can you ease into this type of lifestyle because i really want to try it, but maybe going so quickly into the fat my…
  • I dont have a problem with these people wanting weight loss surgery- However, my issue is that all of the people that have been on the show are food addicts- it shows every one of them eating tons of junk food and fast food, then wondering why they cant lose weight. They eat so horrible how can they think bypass surgery is…
  • I just started doing that last year- I get up at 4:30 and go to the gym by 5- home at 6:15 then get my son up for school and we are out the door by 7:30. I have found that as long as I make this my plan the night BEFORE and lay out my gym clothes and gym bag so everything is ready then it goes much easier. Because when you…
  • I have so much in common with all of you! I am 5'3 and currently weigh around 144 but want to get down to around 125-128. I lost about 20 pounds last year but it just wont budge anymore. I work out alot with cardio but this year want to add more resistance training and weight lifting. I have looked alot at Kayla Itsines…
  • I am also on Vyvanse and take phentermine. I worry alot about haing a high tolerance or what will happen when i stop taking either of them. Have you had many bad side effects from taking both?
  • I do the same thing- I know what I am supposed to do i just dont always do it
  • I have a garmin vivosmart hr- how do you set it to adjust for negative calories? Ive never seen that option.
  • they have the best workouts on you tube i think- i really enjoy them
  • I also have mental illness, several things actually- including depression, bipolar, and anxiety. It is tough getting yourself in the right frame of mind, but i can truly attest that getting on the right medication is one of the main things you can do. It took a long time for me to get on the right combination of meds so…
  • I just posted almost the same thing in another forum. Its hard to fit time in but i always make time for the gym. I work 8-5 plus my hour commute. By the time I get home from the gym its 8pm. I usually use my crock pot alot, and recently have started back going to the gym at 5am instead of after work. Its hard to do but i…
  • I have had alot of ankle surgeries so i also take it easy at the gym. I ride the stationary bike for about 60 minutes and also do some of the machines that arent rough for my ankle- You could do the leg machines and also do some cardio like the bike or elliptical.
  • So many people have leftovers! I barely have enough time in the day to cook dinner. I mean how does everyone that works, work all day, I get home at 6pm- then workout by 6:30-8 - by then its too late to cook a meal so i usually just eat something like a baked potato or a fruit cup. My main eating is at lunch. Its hard to…
  • I did the same thing- my new scale weighs me heavier than my old one. I had bought a new one instead of just buying a battery- now my old scale says i gained weight also- yuck!
  • This is so true because i have a very good friend that moved to another state that is ALWAYS pushing isagenix. She keeps saying how she has transformed herself but the ONLY pics she posts are of her face. You can never see her body so who knows. I think its a scam.
  • Im glad to hear others having the same issues as me! I took my family on vacation to the mountains and ate way too much junk. So I didnt get a workout in either, although we did go whitewater rafting and horseback riding. I also drank some alcohol which i usually dont do. I ate alot of ice cream also. I didnt eat as much…
  • well logically the amount of food you put in your stomach matters. If you eat a large salad you are going to feel alot fuller than if you ate a piece of cake with the same calories.
  • I understand your frustration. Where i work we have free snacks for our customers and of course we can eat them as well. They are all pretty healthy such as fiber one bars, granola bars, almonds, but I snack on one or two plus eat some candy we keep up front and by the time work is over i have reached my calorie goal and…
  • I love my garmin vivosmart hr. I wear it everyday- I just added alot of you guys if you see my username come across it is- itsmyturn--- feel free to add me, I am still learning how to use it correctly but i didnt even know you could add friends. This is awesome!
