Yes big fan of all three. Hit me up! :)

My fav juice recipe is... > Kale - approx 6-10 leaves > Spinach - approx 10-12 leaves > Cabbage - a small wedge (great detox benefits and doesn't have an overpowering taste) > Carrots - 2 > Apples - 2 small or 1 large Makes about a glass worth of juice and it comes out kind of brownish because of the carrots and apples so…

It does help but it is a short term solution. If you take it too long your brain will quit producing it on its own and you are worse off. I will take it on occasion if my sleep schedule has gotten way out of whack. There are things you can do to naturally boost your brains production of melatonin. Light can suppress…

nice

LOL! LOL! LOL!!!!! Pure.... freakin........greatness!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my gosh I totally feel you. I just started a new job and the boss keeps a kitchen fully stocked for all the employees to eat. Its not even good stuff either it's all chips and cokes, hot pockets... etc... Plus they are always bringing in breakfast burritos and donuts nearly every day.

Box? I have a skinny closet! Seriously I have two small closets in my room and I have filled the other one with the clothes that I can't part with. I refuse to go shopping and tell myself that I have a whole new wardrobe in 1-2 sizes down just waiting for me.

Same here... I didn't do a lot of exercising this past week either. Find something fun to do... I burnt up a bunch of calories bowling the other day according to my HRM. Forgive yourself and move on...

I get some serious knee pain (I am hoping that the weight loss will help alleviate) I like swimming laps when my knees hurt. it gives them a break and I am still getting a killer workout.

I count it when I plan on doing very heavy cleaning (i.e. mopping the floors, scrubbing, moving boxes) I wear my heart rate monitor and I can burn some significant calories doing housework. It should also depend where you activity level is set. I have mine on sedentary.

164 is the high end of the healthy BMI range for my age. That is what I am shooting for. Anything more than that is bonus :smile:

I can't tell you how many times I have heard this.... seriously I've lost count :indifferent:

that's awesome! I haven't been to a water park in years because of my weight. That is one of the things that motivates me :)

I hate that!! I've started to pay close attention to servings per container.

I'm a choco-holic for sure. I like the Hunt's Sugar Free Chocolate Pudding snack packs. I like to jazz it up with strawberries and lite whipped cream. Fills a whole bowl and I feel like I'm getting something good :)

Praying for you today that God comforts you and give you peace today.

rarely do I come across a recipe that i have all the ingredients at home already!! I'm trying to decide it I should do this for dinner instead ... hmmmmmm :ohwell:

That's great!!! It's the little things that have the biggest impact on us. Negative and positive. I'm so happy for you!

Maybe your desire to lose weight and get healthy is communicating to him that you are unhappy with your life (mainly him). Change is scary for people sometimes maybe you should find ways to remind him that he is one of the permanent things. Another thought is misery loves company. If he wants to eat junk food and not…

It took me forever to get brown rice right. The trick is not to let it absorb the water like white rice but to cook it like pasta. Boil it then drain. First - Rinse rice in COLD water Second - Boil continuously for 20-30 minutes (cook times vary) Third - Use a mesh colander to drain water (some colanders have big holes…

That's true! I never really thought of that. One of the things I have always hated about being overweight is I have to wear old lady clothes :tongue:

I live in Texas so definitely October/Fall... when we finally get a break from the heat!!

Most of the big fast food chains process their own meat and have big government subsidies. There is more tax breaks for meat processing factories then there are for organic fruits and vegetables.
