I can agree and understand with where you are. But, I also agree in the journey approach. I have had to arrive at a place where I realize that every day is about getting up, doing my best, and moving on when I have chocolate cake or decide that running is not of interest to me. Each day is a new day and we have to live it…

You know I feel the same way a lot. I've lost 40 some pounds but, it's take 3 years and only 6 of it has happened within the last year. It's frustrating and overwhelming at times because I feel like I'm pretty faithful. Not flawless but, definitely faithful. I feel like I keep knocking into the same wall with no victory. I…

Higher Intensity is designed to break up insulin if you've shown resistance. But, it's never to be done at more than 20 minutes when worked through intervals unless you are a performance athlete. You'll get a longer bang for your buck if you learn to do good long work outs but, on those days that you aren't able then take…

We are all doing well I hope! I'm at 1.8lbs and we have 5 weeks left. Press on! Tell us whats working. Keep remember that even though you might not see change in a given week (speaking to myself who just weighed in the same this week) sometime progress is maintaining when we slip up! You guys are awesome!

Awesome! Let's go for it! If we do it together we can encourage each other. My self motivation lately has STUNK but, I'm gonna master this. It's 7 lbs... it's 4 1/2 weeks. So, that's 1.6 lbs per week. I'm a Wednesday weigh in so, I'll post where I'm at tomorrow. Thanks all!

I'm with DeeJay TJ I usually get a "Fajita or Taco" Salad but, I ask them to use they're grilled veggies instead. Then, I tell them to keep their high calorie dressings and I use salsa for a dressing. If there's no shell, I only take a hit for the calories on the cheese, guac, and sour cream which leaves me some play to…

Salsa, Halibut makes amazing fish tacos, dried fruit and nuts for snacks, Chicken Burgers, Black Bean burgers, Turkey sausage, farm fresh eggs, Ranch Light... man where do you stop. Costco is A-MAZING. Peppers, Low Fat plain Yoghurt My newest find is my fav, Rivavia (sp?) - it's a liquid multi packed full of everything…

I am the queen of eating a full meal while cooking one. I love the trick that I've found that I actually discovered on Weight Watchers which helped me loose my first 40lbs. I cut up a bowl of fruit first before anything else. It helps keep my taste buds happy, gives me some great vitamins and actually is a filling food so,…

My first question would be with all your new fruits and veggies, are most of them raw. They could be pushing a lot of toxins through your system and if the majority are raw, it causes a lot of air pockets which can lead to intestinal discomfort. Continue trying to drink a lot of water and I would cook your veggies a little…

I used to get these side pains all the time. I agree that when I'm well hydrated they are definitely less likely. It's a breathing thing that you have to learn your own rhythm. It takes time and stride to learn how to rest while you run but, the pain comes from a pinch in your diaphragm. Best thing to do is start to…
