Congrats on the loss so far Lori0534! Keep up the good work!

I am on day 6 of the challenge and am down 7 pounds! So far I am very pleased with it and have found it easy to follow. I am taking the catalyst supplement, and plan on taking the Thermoplus once I start the Max phase. To be honest though, I can't really tell a difference in my energy with the Spark drink? Not sure why. I…

I agree with going to the running store to get the proper shoe for your foot, but DON'T buy it there! Go to runningwarehouse.com and buy it there. They usually aways have the same shoe for less $$ and you can almost always google a promo code which will give you an additional $10 off the shoe. I generally save between…

An easy way to reduce sodium is to limit processed foods. Instead of buying/eating lunch meat, roast a chicken or turkey and use that meat for sandwiches. One rule that I love is that if it comes in a box, don't buy it! :o) I hope that helps. I am limiting sodium too, I have cut out about 80-90% of processed foods, and in…

I agree that it sounds like it could be exercise induced asthma. I have that and just stick to the treadmill when it's below about 50 outside. I would def. go to your doc and have it checked out.

Thank you all so much!! Thinking I will cut the pills in half for a couple of days and see how I do before taking the whole pill both times. Another thing I should've asked my doc and forgot, is this something I will have to take forever, or will the condition correct itself once I get the weight I need to lose gone? I…

Jay Robb whey protein powder. It is good stuff, but the down side is that it is pricey. I found it cheapest on Amazon. Jay Robb's Whey Protein is made from the finest natural ingredients available and delivers 25 grams of first class protein, 0-fat, 0-cholesterol, 0-sugars, and only 1 gram of carbohydrate per 30 gram…

My doc said it can cause GI problems...nausea, diarrhea, cramping, etc.....glad to hear you all haven't had any problems, that makes me feel better.

Thank you for the link to the support group!! and no....didn't know to build up gradually...she's starting me on 500mg tab, I am supposed to take it twice a day...is that a low dosage, or normal one?

Bump....these sound great!

Like the previous posters have said, def. do weight training. I also think that a lot of times (not in all cases), that loose skin is more a factor for people who have a lot more to lose than 40lbs, and that they lose weight too quickly.

I don't do cheat days, but do a cheat meal. Usually do it on Saturdays. The rule is I only have 1 hour to eat whatever it is I am planning on eating. I love it because I don't feel deprived and it helps with cravings. If I am craving chocolate, I can get through it because I know that on Saturday I can have it. Since it is…

Syntha 6 Vanilla Ice Cream as far as taste and value. Jay Robb Vanilla as far as taste and healthy--Jay Robb comes from grass-fed cows, but it is pricey!

Def. NOT soy!! Stay away! more than 90% of soy is GMO! Stay away!!

I bought some at Kroger in the health food/organic food section.

Tuna salad and PB sandwich, or just by itself! Pimento cheese and PB, waffles/pancakes with PB and syrup.....PB is the universal food! So good on so many things! Another one I used to eat, and still would if I still ate bolgna is a bologna, cheese, PB, ketchup, and mustard sandwich.

I just bought a Tanita scale a few weeks ago, and the info that came with it said healthy water weight range for women was 45-60%, and for men it's 50-65%.

they do! Go to amazon and search moisture wicking underwear women.....

PB with tuna salad!! Yum!!!

I did C25K and absolutely loved it! When I started, I was NOT a runner....at all. I think the first day they have you walk like 3 min. and run for 1min. I remember looking at my watch when I started that first run...it had only been 15sec and I thought I was going to die, but I held on. When I decided to do the C25K. I…

Didn't read all the posts, so if someone else already mentioned this, sorry for the repeat. Every now and then I will make a 3-2-1 cake. One serving is only 42 calories, and it usually hits the spot for me. You take a box of angel food cake mix and then a box of any other you like and mix those together. Then in a small…

That is awesome!! Congratulations! I love C25K :smile:

I am the OP, and Just FYI, I eat clean. I don't do McDonalds and don't google them or go to their website so no, not every ad that is displayed is from a site you googled or have been too.....i.e. the ad right now is for Cenegenics??? Whatever that is. Whatever it is, it is a site I have never been too, which blows the…

Ah -ha!! That's it!!!! They are mind readers!! I must have been thinking about how much I hate McDonalds and they were trying to change my mind!! ;o)

maybe they are just showing any and every ad on mine since I don't really google. I do FB, pinterest, MFP, my emails, and my bank. Right now it's Chuck E. Cheese and I know I have NEVER googled or been to that site! LOL!

right now mine is an ad for Keller Management Institute....never been to, or googled that either...never even heard of it before.

oh, it doesn't tempt me.:o) McDonald's is the last place I would want to go. I am doing away with all processed stuff and don't want to eat all the GMO's that are in foods, just thought it was bad taste for it to be on a fitness site. I didn't realize the ads were from google, so glad to learn that. The ads I see are for…

check out rockmyrun.com They have all sorts of music play lists. It used to be free to download when I first joined them, now you have to have some credits, but I think they give you some free credits when you sign up....not sure about that though. Since I was a member when it was free, they gave me some credits when they…

I know they need to sell ad space, but I just think that is really poor taste. That's like the American Lung Association selling ad space to Marlboro.......

Tuna salad and PB sandwich! YUM!!
