I am not going to do the scale down program as I am currently meeting with a nutritionist and following her guidance. Honestly I haven't even looked a the scale down program. I was most caught off guard by the tension and feelings of anger at first and do feel it is getting less and less. I had to put a note on my desk at…

Karen I like that you find the time to take in the beauty of nature. it is a good lesson to take in. Like I said previously I did get my bike fixed and did get out to ride it for a 5 mile bike ride and it was such a freeing feeling almost an escape for that time. I did have the tracking feature on for the Mapmyfitness. app…

Had my bike fixed today so getting out and riding my bike should be a way to get exercise in as well. I have a bunch of fitness dvd's but just can't put one in and use it - but getting outdoors is helping. yes slow and steady!
-
Thanks for the feedback. :happy:
-
Thanks Karen I have been so. On plan and tracking everything. Upped the water intake as well. Exercise is still a bit of a mental block.......any tips?

HI Jenn! I am also from Columbus Ohio. Are you at the McConnell Heart Health center for your classes? If yes, I normally attend the weekly meetings on Wednesday at 7AM - I won't be there this Wednesday due to work travel. (This will be a challenge as I am traveling with four men and honestly not sure what the eating…

6/5/2014 I did one hour of ballet core aerobics - 501 calories burned. I also have been doing better with getting back on track today had two shakes - one bar and an apple - and salads.

You are not alone I too struggle with this. If we can help each other get motivated that would be great!

I meet with the fitness coordinator tomorrow afternoon. I am not really exercising much at thus time I know I need to get motivated with this to meet my goals. I have a fitbit that I wear every day I need to up my daily goal for walking, currently I am averaging about 7500 steps a day and need to move the daily goal up to…

Non food rewards for me are flowers, clothes or putting a set amount of money in a separate account so I can go on a trip. Another goal reward could be a piece of jewelry.

Thanks, I won't be using it or buying it again. Yes gross us the best way to describe it. Now I really do like the pineapple apricot drink.

Have you had the strawberry beverage? What do you do to alter the taste? Oh my I won't get that again! I put this in my nutribullet w strawberries and bananas ............... help!

yeah that would not be a desired effect - carbonated in nutribullet - will stay away from that!!

From reading your story about you and your husband on the plan and the what you have both accomplished. Hang in there you are so close to goal and the maintenance plan is just a short time away. Stay focused you can do this - honestly your story has kept me focused on wanting to do this plan as well. Lean on us - vent on…

WOW I am amazed at how our plans are so very different and where we go is just as different. I can get the soups but haven't figured just as summer has hit I am not much of a soup person - but can see the benefits of this as well.

So looking at this I am the only one on the LCD - I get 1200 calories a day? It is interesting to see the differences by each center - and from talking to most of the people that work where i go it sounds like more people are on the LCD rather than VLCD @ 800 calories. Interesting. What about the center that you go to what…
-
I have the recipe for the chicken biscuits and thought that looked interesting - may have to try this! Loving the other ideas - of adding the torani and using flavored water. I know I have been using a Nutri Bullet to mix my shakes at home - and I use a blender bottle at work.

Thanks for the invite!!! I found the program in November of last year but just started last week due to thyroid (graves disease)! Hoping to get great tips from those of you that have been doing this a while.

I am meeting with my doctor on Thursday to begin my physical and bod-pod check in and will begin the program shortly after that. What I like about this is that ---- for me ---- this is with the guidance of a doctor, dietitian, fitness and a physicologist as well. I feel I will get and use the guidance they provide to make…

HI I have done p90 and did lose weight I am contemplating doing this program again - need to get back on track. It is a great place to start if you are just starting - follow the program and do it at your pace. Joyce PS - I am not a Beachbody Coach - just a person that has done the program and did experience success.
