I did the fit test last week and my calves have JUST NOW recovered. those high jumps killed me! So last year my younger brother was in the hospital because of a serious car accident and to my pleasure, the hospital cafeteria had a KILLER salad bar! Make sure you check out the cafeteria or google the hospital to find out…

True!! Thanks for the great advice! Well I'm always sure to keep a calorie minimum of 1200 but some days with the calories that I burn with p90x and insanity I'm aloud around 2,000 so I think the most I've had in the past few weeks is around 2,000. I'm pretty sure there won't be any loss of muscle as I don't deprive myself…

Well its basically saying that in five weeks I should have 13 pounds lost but I feel like if I'm doing P90X & insanity everyday plus keeping my calories down around 1200 then the results should be a bit more dramatic? I mean, ill take what I can get I'm just so excited to finally defeat this stingy plateau I've struggled…

Obviously if we all had the time to prepare 3 healthy meals a day we would have no need to resort to the potentially unhealthy frozen meals. But going to school full time and working 30 hours a week and working out 5 days a week....sometimes I will pack a lean cuisine to have for lunch at work. I'd say no more than once or…

nopal cactus, aloe vera, fiber (insulin & xanthan gum), vitamins, minerals, amino acids, botanicals...all ingredients in the multitrim so maybe it is worth the $50. I'm actually a case study for the company and their commercial testimony model on the webpage is my best friends mom and my local distributor haha.…

Thanks! I did read your entry about aloe :) I was paying $50 a bottle for this multitrim!!! Did you mention you can get the aloe at Trader Joes?? I will have to let u know wut other ingredients are in the multitrim but im pretty sure the aloe is the main ingredient.

It's true! Before joining this site I lost 25 lbs. by using a product (active ingredient is aloe vera) called "multitrim". It's a little unheard of in the US but it's huge over in Europe and Mexico. I would mix a cap full into a 32 ounce water bottle with crystal light and drink late morning...that mixed with a very…

yeah! Thanks a lot!

oh my goodness what a genius idea!! Now I wish I had a treadmill at hommmme :( I wonder if it would work even better to wear a thong so you'd be flexing your gluts the entire time along with your abs!! That's a really good point you made, I have noticed that when I wear a more snug t-shirt to the gym I get so tired during…

I actually do have greek yogurt stocked up in the fridge! My case study coach for multitrim suggested that to me a couple moths ago but before then I didn't realize what a great source of protein it is. I'll have some of that in between meals sometimes for extra protein but I try to stay away from too much dairy and carbs…

I'd definitely go for the chocolate if I ordered some! good idea on the sample...

right! I'm on a college student budget here! The sick thing is I'm willing to invest my part-time income in something like that if it's real beneficial for me :) I really enjoy healthy meal replacement shakes!! It works great for someone like me whose on-the-go a lot and doesn't always have time to prepare a healthy meal…
-
Now that I think of it ...my smaller days were definitely before I met my boyfriend of 5 years! Haha! I had never touched a mot stick before then or had homemade wings or French fries! I didn't grow up with a deep friar in the home- they make everything stink!!!
-
isn't that the WORST!!! My boyfriends eats pizza constantly and he's fit, it's not fair! Congrats on the willpower! Good work!
-
They're right. Listen, I think I would much rather be your age and 10 POUNDS from my goal than to be the young girl whose 30-40 pounds away from her goal weight! Your so close!! I understand the struggle that your going through completely, it's hard living in the world but resorting to unhealthy quick fixes aren't going to…
-
I would say thats the IDEAL scenario my lady! It doesn't get much better than your man bragging on you let alone all his buddies/co-workers sealing the deal by assuring him your top-notch!! I hope that's what I get to look forward to when I get married! It's hard being my age when all my guys friends fantasize about the…

I highly recommend fiber one or special k breakfast products :) They're all really delicious! I love the special k serial with the sun dried strawberries in it. Fiber one makes a really yummy frosted shredded wheat. My boyfriend is really picky too and I'm not sure that he would give any of those a go...However when he had…

I'm really into Yoga lately! It gets me sore in places I surely have never felt sore in before like those "hard to reach" muscles that you can't work simply by lifting. What do you think of Yoga & palates workouts?

Welcome :) Wow, thats so wierd- I've also been doing a smoothie diet for breakfast and lunch with a low carb/high protein dinner. Mine is the Dr. Oz belly blaster smoothie and it seems to be working great! I've lost about 8 pounds since I started it a couple weeks ago. I love how FILLING the smoothie is! It really keeps me…
-
Doc! I assure you my diet is cleaner than any 22 year old you've met :) I don't ever drink soda and I gave up the processed foods. I used to rely on lean cuisines to do the job when I lived at college and didn't realize at the time how high the sodium was in them! What do you think about frozen veges? Sometimes I will…
-
Many times I have come across helpful magazine articles that list "healthy foods that are more filling". Usually those foods tend to be higher in fiber. Depending on if your a real picky eater or not, adding some high fiber and protein foods in your diet definitely wouldn't hurt! There's a brand called Fiberone that I LOVE…

Hey! I just joined the site and LOVE it. I assure you I will be on here every day! My boyfriend has the P90X collection and has done them a lot on and off as well (kind of in your same situation). I have joined him many times to do the workout and love it! I especially love the pliometrics, it reallyyyy kicks my butt!…

Awesome. Well I wish I could get one on my blackberry storm! Darn! It really makes counting calories effortless. I never kept up with my calorie count because of how time consuming it would be to check every label, break it down into measurements, and write every little consumption down! It's so cool like last night I just…
-
I definitely recommend the diet :) My mom picked up the woman's day article and we headed to our health food store. The only issue is that all of those ingredients can get to be pretty pricey if you decide you would like to stick to the diet! With a college student budget, it's not the easiest for me to spend $30 on things…
