Try sampling. you don't have to eat a huge portion of anything - just a bite or two and then move on. If I feel like eating bad food - I do one of two things. 1. I eat a small portion to satisfy craving 2. I ask myself if that food is "fuel for my body" Kind of like your car. You wouldn't fill up your gas tank with sugar…

I don't do zumba, but a DVD called Brazil Butt LIft and Turbo Jam. They are similar. I love them, but sometimes don't keep up with the moves. If I can't follow the steps I just keep moving. I think you will get the same cardio benefit if you do that. can't do the moves - do jumping jacks, run in place... just move. enjoy!

I drink Shakeology to keep me feeling full. It reduces cravings, increases energy levels, promotes healthy digestion and helps you lose weight. It is an amazing ALL NATURAL protein shake. I drink it everyday and love it! I also happen to coach for the company that sells it - but started using it well before I was…

Be so careful with what you are doing. The LAST Thing you need is to be sick for your wedding because of poor nutrition, lack of energy...

i have done a three day cleanse using shakeology. i work as a beachbody coach - but can honestly say I love it! It is all natural, tastes great and is SO good for you. During the cleanse most people lose 5-10 lbs - depends on your body situation. You drink three shakes per day, two pieces of fruit, 8 oz. of water and a…

My favorite is Turbo Jam. it is a beachbody dvd program with Chalene Johnson. She is SUPER motivational and fun. One workout is 20 minutes - others are 40 or 50 minutes. The 20 minute workout combines dance (hip hop) and kenpo. You don't have to be coordinated to do it - I love it and am NOT a dancer. The music is great on…

I have also done WW. But, the thing is - I would rather know calories that work for me - rather than points. I think WW is great, but long term - what if they change their system again and I don't eat the right amount of points, What kind of exercise do you do? I am a fitness coach and exercise at home and will soon do…

Do you think that you didn't consume enough calories? Remember at the beginning of the book they have you calculate BMI... and calorie consumption. I am also doing P90x. I am in the 5th week. I have noticed firmer legs, less fat on waist and firmer arms. I have only dropped 3 pounds. I am 5'8" and weigh 150 lbs. I am…
