I love Maple Farm's brand of balsamic vinaigrette -- http://www.maplegrove.com/products/dressings/fat-free-dressings/balsamic-vinaigrette Only 120 mg of sodium. They have a lot of other tasty, healthy salad dressings too.

Cellucor Chocolate Raspberry Truffle is the best protein I've ever tasted. Tastes great with just water, but mixing with Almond Milk makes it very creamy. Haven't tried any other Cellucor flavors yet, but I've heard good things.

Because I'm getting married in 5 days!!

Bump

I'm getting married on October 25, 2014! I bought my dress at the end of December and currently weigh about 9 pounds less than I did then. My dress has arrived and I am going in to try it on Saturday. I'm excited to see what it looks/feels like! I'm hoping to lose at least 20 more pounds before my wedding. Glad to see…

Almost every day for lunch, I eat chicken (boneless-skinless breasts cut up and cooked in a skillet with cayenne pepper and garlic powder), quinoa or brown rice, and green beans or broccoli (I buy the big Kroger Value frozen bags). On Sundays, I make 8-10 lunches for my fiancé and I and we eat it all week. 4 oz. of…

Like everyone is saying, plain is your best bet. I like Chobani, but I get Kroger brand to save money. While I do like the plain yogurt, sometimes I just want something sweet. What I do is add in a half a scoop of Vanilla Whey powder (Designer Whey brand) to the yogurt cup. This adds only 1 g of sugar and makes it taste…

Just by looking at the last week or so of your diary, it looks like you go way over on sugar every day. When I hit plateaus, I pay very close attention to my sodium and sugar intake. Try reducing the amount of sugar and see if this helps

Finished Level 1 Day 3 this morning :)

I started 30DS on Monday, as well... I've lost 24 pounds since January- but find myself at a plateau. I'm loving 30DS so far. I've been doing it in the morning before work- great way to jumpstart my day

From Ohio... Cincinnati chili- Sweet chili on top of spaghetti and topped with cheese, or as a coney. Yummm

Sometimes the women in full makeup/hair done may be coming straight from work, are on their lunch break, etc.... No need to judge. I really don't think many people would actually spend time getting ready to go to the gym. I see a big difference in how women look at the gym going at 6:00 am and 6:00 pm- a lot more "done up"…

Go skydiving :)

Since your diary is not public, just curious how your sodium intake generally? I was having issues losing before. Once I started being more conscious about sodium levels I saw that it made a big difference. I never let myself go over 2500 sodium, and try to stay around 1500 generally (unless I am eating out- I find it…

I pack 2 snacks every day for work that are a healthy carb and a protein. Here's a list of the carbs/proteins that I pack on a normal basis. Just mix and match any of the items. For things like peanut butter and hummus, I buy little plastic cups and lids at GFS- they are the perfect size for 2 TB and I never have to wash…

I'm 22... always looking for any support/inspiration. Feel free to add me, anyone!

I try to burn between 400-500 on the 4-5 days I work out per week. I either do 1 cardio and 1 strength workout OR 2 cardio workouts on these days. I do one cardio at my own at the gym, and then either a cardio or strength workout class. I have to split it up, or I'd go crazy. Here's the typical amounts I burn for each and…
