I will be 9 weeks tomorrow and due March 05. I still feel like it's a dream! We've been trying for some time now. I am currently always exhausted, rarely have an appetite, and always nauseas. When I do eat it's carbs because that's all I want right now. Dr. said that was fine and I will make up for it after the first…

Not silly at all. I am so excited for you!!! All my co-workers think I'm crazy for calling my period a monthly "gift".

I initially started out eating 150 grams a day....it was pretty easy but my weight didn't go anywhere. I then went to 100 grams and started slowly noticing a difference in how I felt. After going to 50 or less net grams a day and doing Insanity my weight is slowly but surely coming off. I also have one cheat day where I…

Awesome!!

Day 3 Done!!!! I'm still quite sore but I'm pushing through. Hope everyone else is doing well.

Yeah!!! So happy you guys can join me!!! Here are my initial fit test results: 70 - Switch Kicks 36 - Power Jacks 68 - Power Knees 10 - Power Jumps 5 - Globe Jumps 3 - Suicide Jumps 5 - Push Up Jacks 27 - Low Plank Ob I did the Plyo Cardio today, so I guess I'm really on Day 2....It was HARD!!!! I couldn't get through the…

As far as what I am eating, I try to eat what I want but take away the unnecessary carbs. Burger w/ cheese, onions, tomato & sweet potato fries Meat & cheese roll-ups w/ 5 or 6 chips Salad mix w/ cheese & meat Greek Yogurt w/ nuts (not considered the lowest of carbs but Greek yogurt is lower carb than regular yogurt) Eggs…

From all I have read low carb is the way to go. I myself try to stay between 75 -100 and have a cheat meal here and there. I am not losing weight quickly but I know doing low carb would be a struggle and I would end up bingeing on foods I denied myself. Good Luck

Breakfast: Pam-cakes w/ Uncured Turkey Bacon, Coffee Lunch: Salad w/ chickpeas, red onion, carrots Dinner: Beef Stew Snacks: Mean Green Juice, Kind Bar, Coffee I definitely need to add more veggies to my diet.

Pizza Crust Review: Udi's Pizza Crust Ok, so I was taken aback by the price for 2 crusts, 5.99, but figured I would try it out before ordering online. We mad a white pizza & a traditional pizza and both were ok. Would I purchase again? No, especially not at 5.99

I figured I would chime in again with what I like now since I've been trying a few: All-Purpose Flour: Pamela's Baking Mix Pancake Mix: Same as above Noodles/Pasta: Tinkyada Brown Rice Pasta Pizza Crust: ??? - to be honest when I want pizza I get the real deal:( Cookies: ??? Pie Crust: ???

I always wonder what us shorties are eating calorie wise. I do 1400 regardless if I exercise. I was thinking it would be more rewarding if I went down to 1200 and ate my exercise calls back. I'm a mess right now and can't seem to stay on track....

For the watch or the main piece? The watch one was easily replaceable and found at Walmart or the like. For the main piece I had to go to a battery shop to find it. If there's a batteries plus near you they will have it. And I totally understand how you feel.

Which brands are you guys using? Does it matter if it's organic?

I'm looking forward to the responses to this post for I've been wondering the same thing. I drink at least 2 cups a day.

It's doable but so extremely hard....especially during the holiday season. I have yet to do my follow-up, with my Dr., from my PCOS diagnosis and I'm almost positive she will recommend I see a nutritionist...sigh... I say take baby steps and I agree with Alliwan about the crockpot.

Bump... I mainly do: 1/4 cup oats 1/2 cup almond milk 1/2 banana Tbsp chia seeds

Thank you guys so much!!! You don't know how much this helps.

I look forward to reading other's responses to this post. There's also a gluten free group here that's awesome.

So many people think going GF is synonymous with losing weight. I know for me, at first, I lost a little bit of weight b/c I lived off salads and fruit. But when I discovered all the subs I went bonkers so the weight came back on quickly. When using subs I have to be more mindful. For instance, I have one slice of toast…

This is my first GF Thanksgiving as well....there's only two of us so we're having: short ribs (may have a turkey as well) corn bread dressing (using Pamela's mix) baked mac & cheese green beans Udi's rolls sweet potato cobbler or crisp (will give Pillsbury GF crust a try) I'm still getting the hang of being GF and have…

Bump...just getting started.

Thank you guys so much for you responses!!! Primal is a go!!!

Slipped up and fell on some banana bread with nut butter and black coffee.....sigh....

I did pretty well for Day 1!!!!!! 29 more days to go!!!!! Is there a certain day most are starting?

I'm a newbie and all this info is grealty appreciated!

I had my gall bladder removed last year and it's still a blur to me. Mid August last year I was eating dinner, late one night (as you were) and started having these horrible stomach pains. It felt as if I'd swallowed knives. After my visit to the ER I was told I had gall bladder disease and gastritis (which is the…

I am new to the primal lifestyle and would love to give this a go. I know that if I can get through the Whole30 eating a less restrictive primal diet will be much easier. I'm currently going through the how can I make pancakes, bread, cookies, etc stage and that's not where I need to be. Can you still drink coffee if no…

I am on level 1 day 3....I've had this DVD for a long time but have yet to get passed level 1. I'm trying to lose 10 lbs so I'm hoping I either lose a couple lbs or more importantly inches within the next month.
