Oh, well. I love both. White? Nice viogner or condrieu? Red? Malbec, shiraz, merlot ... Depends on the area. But now whatever nice wine I drink, it has to fit into my calories allowance. I am travelling now, dinner was total crap as they could not deliver grilled chicken breast and veg so I am enjoying wine instead. I know…

I am 45 and I am trying to stay around 1200 calories a day too. My metabolism is rather slow and if I have a little bit more carbs, such as bread or rice or even fruit, my weight gets stuck although I am within the calories allowance. I know I have to keep confusing my body by different exercise and limit carbs as much as…

Fantastic results in just 7 weeks! Thanks for sharing and inspiring all of us.

Wow. Fantastic result. Congrats.

Thanks. I will try that book. And wow on your weight loss! Fantastic.

Hi Holly, feel free to add me. I am pretty new to this community. I joined a year ago but only now got determination to lose 30lbs by summer.

Hi all, I am in week 2 of Chalean Extreme. Love it. Add me as a friend if you want

I struggle with a similar problem and Plantar Fasciitis. I started suffering from that after a few years of excessive running in the past and lack of stretching. I can't run and sometimes walking is pain too. I had to swap for other types of exercise. I love Chaleane Extreme programme which is low impact and lots of heavy…

I bought the fitbit and now try to regularly go for a fast 30 min walk at lunch time.

Plan beforehand and be determined. Stay away from bread and bad carbs. Order grilled vegetables or salad as your side dish. It takes longer to chew. If you have to have a starter due to a peer pressure, go for a salad. Stay focused and log in your food, it will help you not to go over the board.

Raw carrots for me. They are filling and low calories.

All kinds of veggie stir fries. I normally use 1kcal olive oil spray and no other fat, quickly fry chicken or prawns on it and add fresh vegetables, season with herbs, sometimes a bit of a soya sauce. It tastes great and it is filling. Tonight I am planning to stir fry chicken with onions, add one large leek sliced, 250 g…

I am exactly the same. I know that wine is the main contributor to my weight gain in last three years. I am trying to cut it down to 2 - 3 times a week.

I am trying to stick to 1200 kcal but often get slightly over to 1400 kcal or so which is more or less her zigzag. If I am within 1500 and exercise, I know that I am going to keep losing weight. I am trying to reduce carbs but her two week extreme is a bit too much, especially when she is reducing water in last few days.

I am in the same camp as you are. I discovered that if I want to lose weight I also have to add quite a lot of cardio to my exercise. I am doing Chaleane Extreme at the moment which is great strength training and combining it with stationary bike or cross trainer. Yesterday I received JNL Fusion programme which actually…

I am 5'6 and just starting with 165 lbs and want to get below 130 lbs. I achieved that once and maintained that weight for 3 years but in last 3 years it slipped back. This time I want to succeed and maintain the healthy weight for good. I do Chaleane Extreme, P90X and just bought JNL Fusion which seems like a great…

Please add me. I am trying to lose 30lbs too.

I have just started JNL Fusion. So far I have been doing Chalean Extreme which I love. It really strengthens the muscles.

I received it yesterday and did shoulder shredder. I have enjoyed it but I agree that she is a bit annoying :) I am missing a proper warm-up at the beginning and stretching at the end. Which days are you including abs videos? They seem to be missing from the calendar.

I would say it depends on your results. If you eat them and you are still losing weight and getting closer to your goal it is fine. I am not eating mine as when I do, my weight loss usually stops.

Hi Vanessa, feel free to add me. I am looking for friends too :)

Well done Joye. I am in a similar cycle but this time I am determined to succeed.

The balance between calories out and calories in is not right. You either have to adjust you calories allowance down or exercise more. I don't lose weight if I eat my exercise calories which is frustrating but it is the only way for me to lose weight. Don't give up!!!

Don't give up. In my case the weight does not go down if I eat my exercise calories so I try not to eat any of those. That is the only way how my body starts losing weight.
