Juicing vegetables is a great way to pack nutrients into a normal portioned diet. People are in general malnourished for many many reasons. Fiber is good but only to an extent. Too much can be irritating to your GI tract and Ileocecal valve. Be careful with fruits and some veggies and juicing as they are packed with sugar…

I agree! The time is hard to give up.

I am going to add a devotional practice, such as a daily meditation or asana practice.

My routine: Wash 3x per week Rinse out sweat otherwise Curl hair on day 2 or three post wash dry shampoo for styling backcomb roots for styling tight hairstyles (french braids, buns, ponies) and headband/hat for greasy days Hope that helps :)

Pretty much the same as me! Great work! And you look great before and after but we both know how different and good it feels.

I vow to be a hot older woman one day. I only get better and better with age.

Love it!

Me. Today :(.

Club soda is the same thing and it's cheaper. I drink 2-4 cans a day. Usually with some lime or a shot of some other kind of juice. Keeps sugar down and I have grown to crave it even just plain. I think I like the bubbles more then anything. I also make ice tea out of different flavors of tea and don't add sugar. Tea comes…

My 30's are gonna rock my 20's.

Since my last post in the thread I have stopped biting. I tried acrylic nails and now I go get shillac done every no and then. It seems to be working.

Log everything you eat for a long time. Until you could do it in your sleep. Then you attain a valuable awareness and accountability for everything you eat.

I's be curious to hear what my 18 year old self would say to me. In some ways I was more "grown up" then. So I would tell myself: Way to go for not frying your brain like many others. And for getting out of your small town, moving to a new country, and finding a career you love and respect! Also, you rock at standing up…

Jason Momoa or Woody Harrelson. What?...I have a wide variety of taste. :)

5'4'', current 133lb, over 20lbs lost since Aug '12. Eating 1300+workout calories. Plateaued at the moment. Add me if you like.

I have been trying to get back in track since I went on a few trips/vacation through April. Eating out a lot is a trigger for me. Plus I do a day night rotation that makes me tired 4/9 days so my guard is weakened. I really struggle with binge eating. The problem with letting myself have a day here and there is that I can…

I like high end Jeans. I buy them consignment and that cuts the cost in half. I have a good store right by my house so it makes it simple. Seven for all Mankind Citizens of Humanity Rich and Skinny Levis

I really need to stop. I'm the worst. And I work in a very high stress place that you don't want to put your hands anywhere near your face. Although I tend to bite at home mostly when I have too much time to worry and no where to channel it. I wish there was a quick fix for this one. But I gotta just do it.

I put a bed of greens (spinach, arugula, kale, collards, green beans...whatever is available) at the bottom of whatever I make for dinner whether it be pasta and sauce, soup, casserole, eggs, enchiladas.. etc. It bulks up the meal and creates an illusion that there is more food there. And it helps fill me up with nutrient…
