You should check out the book Wheat Belly. It talks about how wheat today is not as healthy as they market it to be. I started back on my clean eating after letting myself go the last 11 months cause of work stress and I'm on day 3 of no grains/sugar and have lost 6lbs but that's also cause I have a lot to lose. Eating…

Agreed! It's what I'm working on now myself!

I'm reading Wheat Belly as well, might want to look into it. I don't think I saw horrible carbs in your menu plan but its a really good read on why wheat today is not actually healthy. =) I'm on my 3rd day of being grain/sugar free and have dropped about 6lbs but I have a lot to lose though.

If you want to lose weight, you need protein and healthy fat. Too much carbs is not good for you (stick with fruits and vegetables but don't eat a lot of fruits as its high in sugar, even though it is natural). Healthy fat will keep you full longer, helping you to stay within the 1400 calorie limit. I always limit my carb…

Sure is!

Also, perhaps you guys should read "Dr Simeon's Pounds and Inches" and understood how HCG works before talking crap about it. I can just as easily say that Weight Watchers is not great because it really doesn't teach people how to eat correctly and choose the right food. All they are worried about it not going over their…

I've always used drops. Just make sure that the active ingredients contain HCG 6x, 12x, 30x and 60x else it is not the real stuff.

You can still do workouts where don't need to run or be on your feet. You can still work out your quads, hams, calves. Check out this guy who is in a wheel chair.

I have bought Miracle rice to make fried rice using liquid aminos as soy sauce and it was delish. I usually by Shiritaki noodles at the asian market as they are half the price of how you'd pay for the Miracle brand.

NO processed food, fast food, junk food, simple carbs. Eating a balanced meal with carbs (fruits/veggies), healthy fat and protein

I'm 5'2" and my goal weight is 120 so thats about another 45lbs to go. It was originally 130 so we'll see. I've never been tiny my whole life so not exactly sure how i'll look once I get to 130.

Interval is definitely the way to go. In 2007 when I first got a personal trainer I usually just did whatever and he said to do intervals on the elliptical. Building your stamina afterwards for weight lifting too.

hehehe cottage cheese, awesome description. =D I've actually been eating a lot cleaner this year, removing sugar and starches (I slip every once in a while), drink at least a gallon of water a day. Just diet alone actually has helped me and the cellulite actually has gone down a bit. I was looking through my old pictures…

me too!

It would be nice if there was a way that we get notified of new "posts" or "comments" when we reply on a forum or comment on someone's status. That would make coming to MFP a lot more better.

53.2lbs to lose!

lmao!

I would say it depends where his work is at. Living in the NW side of town or NE is a ***** because of the I-15 is always super jam packed. anywhere connected to the 215 is always great.

They taste good to me. If you don't boil them in water, it does have a jellyfish like texture which I like. My mom and bf didn't notice any difference when I made it for them. I also bought miracle rice to make fried rice and used Braggs amino liquid in place of soy sauce and my younger sister liked it a lot. And she's a…

It's always like that...either you're too huge or you're too skinny. People are never satisfied.

oh hahahaha yeah those are funny to see.

I was able to take my treadmill out of all my dad's mess in the garage so I'll be doing the program as well starting next week.

Without HCG (the hormone drops/injections) one cannot be on a 500 calorie diet, which is why when you're on the very lowe caloric diet you need HCG. After a minimum of 3 weeks on it, you get off of it and you continue the low caloric diet for 2 days to get the hcg out of your system. after that you eat your maintenance…

To lose this last 60lbs and maintain a healthy eating life style. Also I'm challenging myself to complete a 12 week transformation challenge through bodybuilding.com by limiting myself on sugar and starches and doing the brazil butt lift program. I hope I do not give up on the exercise part!

Couch25k is a good program. I never finished the last 2 weeks unfortunately but it has helped me with my asthma/

I love Brazil Butt Lift. I have 3 beachbody program. INSANITY is too insane for my knees so that didn't last long but it was good. P90X bore the crap out of me. And I always go back to BBL. Its not too intense (maybe the 30min one for me is) but you'll feel real good afterwards and it really makes your butt look…

So I have a question! Do you guys repeat the same program for 90days? I keep reading online that its a 90 day program and I've done it before but only for 28 days. Someone please fill me in on this.

if he does, maybe you should at least point him to where he can learn more about it? I went to www.hcgweightloss.com/forum/ for learning and support.

Well with HCG, depending on how many drops he takes, it releases about 2500-3000 calories into your system which is why you only eat 500 calories. When i was on it, if I were to calculate my caloric intake, it was usually between 7-800 calories. The deal is for breakfast you drink tea or coffee and water. lunch and dinner…

wow he's eating a lot of bread and diet soda on HCG??? I've done HCG before and I think its a good way to learn to start eating healthier and portion control, however, if what you said is true than he's not even doing it correctly. Some people abuse HCG by still eating bad and yeah you lose weight but since he's not doing…
