This sounds amazing!!!

I started with Chalene Extreme from Beach Body and it was great starting place for me teaching about form & technique. I just moved on to Simply Shredded- all can be mostly done at home... you can Google each exercise to get a visual on proper form. I used to be strictly cardio- and I have to say I am loving picking up the…

IDK about the other tea- but with this you alter the dosage until you find the right fit for yourself. You start with the lowest- which it 1 t- and increase until you are at a good place. For me- the 1 t didn't do anything- I take 2 per serving and have found my happy place :) I tried Miralax for weeks and weeks and it…

There is a product called Natural Calm- I bought it at a local health food store- and it basically is magnesium in powder form. I got the lemon berry flavor- you mix it with hot water at night and drink it like a hot tea. It has a calming effect to help you sleep and works gently but like a charm the next day. I have…

DIced onion, fresh sliced jalapeno, a little sour cream and a little shredded cheese. Ditto on the corn bread and a glass of sweet tea (Ugh..I wish I had a bowl right NOW) The next day I use the left overs and make frito chili pies or chili mac :)

Love this song- and Dum Dum Lecrae and Tedashi

Definitely Protein- I LOVE Carbs and Fats!

^^^^ yep

^^^^ This- ALL of it It helps me to sit down for a few minutes at night and log the next day. I first put my meals in and then fill in my snacks to meet my goals. Good luck!! :)

^^ This The magnesium supplement I haven fallen in love with is Natural Calm- you can pick it up at almost any health food store or Amazon. I have the lemon raspberry and it is pretty yum. You scoop a little (start with 1/2 dose) and add pour hot water to drink like a hot tea at night before bed. It is calming which helps…

Google is your friend here! Strong Lifts is a great program & New Rules of Lifting for Women Happy lifting!

HA! ^^ This!

Subway, salads, fajitas, tacos aren't that bad, whatever actually fits my goals for the rest of the day. You have a 1000 calories left so I would get what I wanted that fit my calories and macros!

My advice to is to start on the higher end of your BMR estimates and tweak from there- and remember to evaluate and adjust as you lose weight! If you do not lose for 2 weeks then it needs adjusting. Be consistent (something I struggle with) and good luck! I look forward to hearing your progress reports!

Your calories will often be a hair off- it is because of MFP's database - not your fault. Hit those macro #'s and don't worry about the calories :)

Following! I have heard the same thing and I recently bought some powder...it tastes HORRIBLE so I bought the pills- just starting them.

^^^ Awesome

^^^good one plus- Strong Curves, Baby Got Back, Ice Cream FItness, Chalean Extreme, Strong Lifts

I use Advocare Spark daily- it is like a healthier version of a Monster energy drink. I love the vitamins and energy I get from it- plus it helps me get even more water in :) I do not use it for weight loss- although that would be a nice side effect!

Another iifym girl here! holla!!! haha- my diary is open-feel free to add me :) I have only been doing it for 2 weeks but I got a good handle on it :)

PCOS and low thyroid function here-but I no longer take medication for either since my weight is much lower than before- feel free to add me! My diary is open- but heads up I follow iifym and count macros as opposed to traditional calorie counting.

I know some may argue- but the Weight Watcher's rule of thumb that I learned years ago is any liquid that is non-caffeinated counts.

Yes! Heat them up for like 5 seconds in the microwave and they are pretty yum- and I am SO PICKY! If it has that "protein" taste- I WILL NOT eat it! Good luck!

I really like the over night oats in a jar from skinnytatse.com I use fresh strawberries or blueberries and it is yum! Quick for me to take to work with zero effort. I am surprised I like it because I HATE oatmeal! Also, I use a little (1 t) brown sugar as opposed to the sweetener.

If you were near me I would give you a sample! You might just call in or find a distributor near you and they may give you a sample. I LOVE the mango-strawberry!

I too sit at a desk and the 2:00-3:00 hour can at times be BRUTAL! I love love love Advocare Spark! It gets some more water in me and gives me the boost I need to get over the hump....I drink one in the mornings AND in the afternoons! Just do not drink it too late :)

I love the skinny taste recipe for overnight oats in a jar..and I HATE oatmeal!!!

Great minds, sister!! :)

I am a HUGE New Balance fan! If you go into a New Balance store they will measure your feet for you. I have worn size 9 all my life and I actually am an 8 1/2 W- then you can order on-line to get them cheaper. Everyone's feet are different, though! I will say I was in the military and in basic training I got stress…

You look like an entirely different couple!! Way to go!!
