The thing about that is your body may find it challenging at first but you will very quickly adjust. You still need to workout. You need to push your body for it to really change. You should be doing something that makes you sweat and pant so much you can hardly talk, a few times a week lol, and some strength training, and…

try Chalean extreme. You can find it at beachbody.com it changes my body big time. It focuses mainly on building lean muscle which help you shed lots of fat :)

Bump.

I want to try!! Anyone have a really good recipe?? :]

I wuld say they are just as bad, pretty much the same deal as diet pop. YOu can make your own green tea and chill it with some lemon, I would drink caffine free. Its not as sweet but you adjust to the taste, our bodies dont need artificial sweetners and sugar anyway :)

You gotta stay committed, if we rely on motivation its pointless because motivation comes and goes. Committment is whats gonna get you through, doing it even when you really really reaaallly dont feel like doing it. Motivation is great to I just think people rely on it too much and then mess up when its gone.. I agree…

YOu should take measurments and photos and not rely totally on the scale for seeing results. Weight goes up and down a lot especially if you are gaining muslce, It may be possible that you lose fat and gained muscle. Dont get discouraged by results, if you are consistent they will come eventually and it will be worth it.

I use a plain old vegetarian protien powder and mix it with my own fruit or whatever. I also like to eat beans, lentils, tofu, I have a low fat cheese that is very high in protien... lots of other stuff I cant think of right off top my head lol. I have been vegetarian for 2 years now so If you would like any advice or…

Chalean Extreme. Or Turbo fire, they are both beachbody programs :)

Bahaha! Yes I can be a little scatter brained from time to time. Heres the link! :) http://alwyncosgrove.com/2010/01/hierarchy-of-fat-loss/

Fat loss is like 80% diet and 20% exercise. You need to really clean up your diet to see results. Check out this article its verrrryy useful! :)

I recommend this program!!!!!! Or if you want something slightly less intense you can try Chalean Extreme, same kind program, 90 days. I did it and had great results!!

Also one of the most effective ways to lose weight is high intensity interval training (HIIT). You can do HIIT workouts for shorter periods of time and see better results than you would from traditional cardio. The only down side is you cant do it 2 days in a row and no more than three times/week since it is harder on your…

Belly fat is the last to go...unfortunately :) You just have to be persistent, and REALLYYY REALLLLLLLLLLY clean up your diet. Good luck!!

It happens. Dont give in! :) MAke sure when you do eat our getting enough protein and eating whole grains to help you feel full if your full your cravings should be less :)

Love this! Thanks so much :)

I love my ipod nano 16G. Its small fits lottts of music, and I just use the arm band I bought for exercise and tuck the wire in my shirt so it does not get in the way :) Only down side is when you sake them they go on shuffle, so you have to make sure the old button is on :)

I feel so violated!!!!!!!! Nothing is safeeeeee :( Just looked this up, also interesting. http://whatscookingamerica.net/LindaPosch/ToxicCookware.htm

Thanks for sharing :) Very informative. I already knew the one about not heating up things in plastic, makes total sense. :)

I would watch out with potatoes if your trying to loose weight. You should eat very little as they convert into sugar and fat very easily. Other than that, I like mine with a little olive oil, onions, garlic and lots of herbs:)

I think the best way to detox your body is to eat organic vegetables and fruits and drink lots of water. I hate all of these things you can buy in stores not for quick weight loss and detoxing. Its all a money making scam, and its unhealthy. I hope you get better soon! Being sick is awful.

You should add in resistance training from the beginning. A lot of women do it backwards cardio then resistance training, you should do both at the same time. I do 3 days a week of training (taking a rest day from training in between)and 6 days a week of cardio. Resistance training is a very effective way to lose weight,…

I eat them and I still lose weight. Also on days where I workout and burn A LOT of extra cals I am STARVING lol so I need to eat more

I read that the benefits of fruit outweigh its high sugar content. There is a daily recommendation for fruit so I would stick to that. I would worry more about refined sugars, at least fruit is natural sugar :) Have you tried any milk substitutes maybe? Im lactose intolerant so I cant really help you there, i use soy milk,…

Great attitude!! :) You must feel so much better! Its amazing how small changes make such a big difference :) Good luck going vegan, I am vegetarian now, but did vegan for a white and felt great!

I love this! Good post. I agree also its hard to avoid everything that's bad for you, but we are constantly learning, and if I found out something I was eating was really bad I would absolutely cut it out and find an alternative. Not that I dont have an occasional treat :)

Im not saying my diet is perfect, and it is hard to avoid ALLLLL chemicals and all that junk, but diet drinks are pointless in my opinion. This is a part of one of my FAV books, changed my life and eating habits for sure. Skinny ***** by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin. WARNING its long and may contain language like the…

Diet drinks are 100% absolute garbage, and they dont help you lose weight they do the opposite. They are sweetened with dangerous chemicals (artificial sweeteners). I dont understand why people would rather put poison in their bodies to supposedly lose weight, isnt the point of weight loss to be healthy in the first place?…

I agree it was not very nice of him to get it for you in the first place. That's not being very supportive. Good thing you are awesome and resisted!!! :) Good for you!!

Hi! You should not focus so much on the scale, try taking measurments also. Weight is a tricky one and its not very accurate, I use it mostly as a guideline and try not to get too obsessed with it. Since I do a lot of strength training I gain muscle and that sometimes causes me to even gain weight, but I dont gain any…
