I love the idea of looking at this like a budget and saying things like "I can't afford that tonight". I can always make sure I have enough for it tomorrow if I really want it! I think this way of thinking will help me a lot! :D I'm a visual person, would it be silly if I used fake money as my calories? lol

Something must have clicked this time. ;) You are doing awesome! Keep up the good work! We WILL succeed!!

Agreed...Will definitely repeat that one!

That wasn't that long first of all! lol Secondly...WOW. High freakin five! ;) You did awesome this week. I am super impressed you stood up to your boss too. Was that the only reason she told you to do so? as a test? Some people. You did awesome. Super proud!

I take it back. It does seem like a fad diet....ugh. lol I would still like to hear about experiences though.

Thanks for your comment but I don't think that really answered my question at all. lol So far I dont' think this falls under a "fad" diet....but I'm so busy I haven't had much time to read so I'm still reading the book. But thanks. I'd still like to know results or opinions from people that have actually read and/or…

Not me. I don't drink much and haven't in over a year. Pregnant and now breastfeeding. I'm really craving what my mother would call my "foo foo" drink. :D A margarita sounds yummy too. :/

Can anyone tell me how I track it on my fitness diary?

Level 1, day 1 complete!! :D I have a headache now as anything on the floor usually gives me one...especially situps/crunches. But I will power through....with lots of ibuprofen! :D I was able to do the push ups though which totally surprised me (on the knees, not the full one)

one of my favorites.....Oatmeal Banana Almond Shake. Normally drinking a meal does NOT fill me up, but this one DEFINITELY does!!! Search it on Pinterest for the recipe.....I use honey to add a little bit of sweetness if the banana isn't ripe enough.....

Okay well I'm late in getting started...but I'm gonna start level 1 tomorrow....a little worried about how much I'll be able to do especially when I get to level 3 but I'm gonna stick to it as best I can!

I don't know about everyone else, but for me...the help I need is more supportive....encouragement. I know all I'm supposed to eat and all I'm not. I don't need anyone else telling me where I'm going wrong there....when I have a bad day, I know it. If I think people are going to look at my diary (I think mine is viewable…

Thanks! Just downloaded it. Also, I read an interesting article today if anyone cares to read.... It's about Diet soda's .....or in general fake sweetners.... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-mark-hyman/diet-soda-health_b_2698494.html?utm_hp_ref=fb&src=sp&comm_ref=false

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

So did you point all that out to her....cuz I think I would have. lol I insist on telling people that too...that just because I've overweight doesn't mean I deal with health issues. Almost everyone that has said something to me assumes I have high blood pressure. NEVER ...it's always been perfect. I have no issues with…
