That's a good idea. Yogurt doesn't bother me because of the probiotics.

Feel free to add me as a friend if you want! :) We all need support!

I can tell. You look awesome!

I'm just reaching the end of Week #3 now (Recovery Phase, I need you!), and I was doing Kenpo X yesterday and still had to pause the DVD for a moment a little while into it to take a break. That's totally normal. You'll get better. Make sure your form is on target and give those reps that you can do your very best effort.…

Awesome!!!!!! You go girl!

You're understandably in shock! That's a big announcement, and with nothing really leading up to it, he just kind of lays it on you. I would suggest taking a step back, taking a few deep breaths and really thinking about how you feel about this. There are some good benefits to being in the military, but there are also some…

As others have mentioned, my coffee is totally worth it. I have 1-2 cups of coffee most mornings with just a bit of sugar. But, I will tell you, I tell myself it's a treat (even though I have it often) and in order to deserve my coffee, I have to drink a bottle of water and have had my breakfast first.

Bump! I'll take a photo later after I dig out my swimsuit! It might be mismatched though...

I want to tell you that you look absolutely fantastic!

A couple of suggestions I could make just from looking at your diary from today is swap out the pickles for something else that's crunchy, and grill a ton of chicken breast or some other kind of meat/meat substitute that you enjoy whenever you cook and freeze whatever is leftover. That will save you a ton of sodium on…

I have been hearing so much about this in the past week. I'm glad to finally see the result of what people have been talking about so much. I agree that the grains looks a little larger than I would like (I'd prefer to see it about the same size as the protein portion, but I like the balance of everything else. And, I like…

Absolutely. It's an awesome post workout snack. I personally can't stand the taste of chocolate milk so I prefer regular milk, but same concept!
-
It was suggested to me numerous times to have a glass of milk before bed. Same idea :)

I agree...the "V" creeps me out! If you have the "V," men...please, do me a favor and don't take your shirt off around me. There is such a thing as too buff and such a thing as too thin. I think LeAnn Rymes is a good example of too thin right now. She used to be pretty fabulous, but she looks like a stick now.

Rock on! Those are amazing results!

I have lost a human head...

I have never really been comfortable tucking in my shirts. Not because of a body image thing...because of a comfort thing. I got too much extra material in my pants... Think about it... :-) I only tuck in a shirt if I have a good, tailored shirt with darts that hug my body and don't go down super far. That way it doesn't…

A bikini in about a month and a half (after 2 months of P90X). A facial and massage when I am done with P90X (Mid-August)

First of all, welcome! If you feel the need not to eat after 6 PM because you are prone to late night snacking, then I say go for it. But what effects weight loss is calories in versus calories out. It does't matter when you eat them throughout the day. Be careful eating no fat. You do need some fat in your diet, for…

When you go shopping, notice what items you are buying that are high dollar. Then, ask yourself, do you really need those things? If the answer is "yes" then you keep it. If the answer is "no" or there is a cheaper substitution, you scratch it off the list the next time around. For instance, do you NEED 4 pounds of ground…

No, but dang, I want to!!!!

My answer to the tofu question is...what do you plan on making with it? If you're using the tofu as a meat substitute for tacos, it will require slightly different preparation than if you're going to stir-fry it. Generally, you want to drain tofu though. Put some paper towels or a clean kitchen towel on your counter. Place…

I had the same problem. I just had to quit to soda cold turkey one day.

If you have tried low carb and it works for you, great.

It's a cheat day! Just enjoy it! I am planning a big cheat day for myself on Saturday, and I'm eating like normal for the rest of the week, but on Saturday, there's a fantastically huge biscuit with my name on it... :)

Peanut butter is awesome for you. Reduced fat peanut butter... not so awesome. Here is the ingredient statement on some reduced fat peanut butter. (PEANUTS, CORN SYRUP SOLIDS, SOY PROTEIN, SUGAR, CONTAINS 2% OR LESS OF: MOLASSES, SALT, FULLY HYDROGENATED VEGETABLE OILS (RAPESEED, COTTONSEED AND SOYBEAN), FOLIC ACID,…

It's amazing! Seriously, you're going to love it if you have the motivation to stick with it. I'll admit, I tried it once and got to week #2 and bailed. I got the flu or something, and it was right around the holidays so I used those things as excuses. But, in May, I stopped whining and started doing, and I've been…

I shall remind myself to take a photo!

I'm fairly close to the goal weight I set for myself, so I am not very much concerned with the weight loss aspect anymore, but right now, I am working on toning up all over. Here are my goals: - Continue vegetarian diet (this seriously makes me feel better than anything else I have ever done, and it suprisingly keeps my…

I agree. Don't hate on the banana for having carbs. There are a lot of fantastic reasons to eat a banana. If you want to switch to a lower GI (glycemic index) fruit, try cherries, plums, graprefruit, coconut.... Bananas are medium.
