I bought it and thought is was my solution to quick weight loss....this was back in the day when I was naive about weight loss :wink: I loved the taste of it and that I could mix it with pretty much anything because it wasn't just chocolate or vanilla...it's more of a basic flavor. I used it for about a week (2 shakes a…

I use the CTS 360 and Tone together, both from Complete Nutrition. The CTS 360 gives me noticeable energy and really suppresses my appetite...I would have never thought an appetite suppressant would work for me, but this really does. It forces me to eat the proper portions and nothing more, which is very helpful! Like I…

I'm in. Send me what I need! :happy:

I have heard of Advocare but never tried any of their stuff....I checked the website and I see a million flavors! I'm willing to pay the price for something that will work but I'm pretty picky...do you think they send out samples of their flavors?

I'm def. going to start listening to some music and eating a snack or the second half of my lunch around 2pm....these are some good ideas I just hadn't thought about!

I wish I could switch up my day so I'm up and moving in the afternoon, but I follow the schedule of the doctors I work with so that means rounding at early hours :wink: Doing my actual workout on my lunch break just wouldn't work....I wish it could because that would be the perfect solution! I know when the weather is a…

thanks! I actually do some Jillian Michaels DVDs at home right now and I go to my local gym. I have been working out and changed my eating habits for a little over a month now and have started losing weight. I alternate working out at home vs. the gym 6 days a week. If I decide to continue with Crossfit (which is what I am…

YOU. LOOK. FANTASTIC!!! That is awesome!!!

"screw it I'm eating whatever I want" lol :laugh:

^^^^^^^same for me....except it was iced sugar cookies at a recruiting event last week.....they just kept staring at me!! Maybe if I would have had this little gem to say to myself I could have resisted!!! :)

I have been on Celexa for almost 2 years. I definitely noticed weight gain with it. I would say I gained about 25 pounds just in the last year. Sure, some of it was from lack of exercise, but I didn't eat junk! I definitely think the Celexa played a big part in my gain and my doctor agreed. I started eating a lot healthier…

congrats! YOU. LOOK. FANTASTIC!!!!!

im so impressed!!! That is GREAT progress! I just started out at 206 (eeeeek!) on August 26th. So far I have lost 6.6 pounds. I'm really inspired by how far you have come just since July! That is great!

I've never been a smoker, so I can't speak to that....other than I know you shouldn't start again!! :noway: However, I have been known to self-loathe. I've done it for such a long time and have done NOTHING about it until a little over 2 weeks ago when I decided enough was enough! I was only hurting myself. I've never…

...and that chunk of fat just made my day! lol

ew. tell the staff what a *kitten* he is being!

I'm also 5ft 7...and my goal weight is also 135-140! It really is the magic number. :smile: I have been around 180-190 for the last several years but after going to the doctor's office and hearing that I was 206, I almost fainted!! I never thought I would be in the 200s. It really scared me and I got serious about weight…

update: The hungry feeling DID go away...my body was not used to getting tons of food at all times of the day. I never used to restrict myself at all!! I'm still doing the body by vi shakes and feeling great! I eat small healthy snacks throughout the day and eat a protein packed dinner! thanks everyone for your advice and…

thank you!!!

198 to 181 in a week and a half is incredible!!! I'm almost at 2 weeks and refused to weigh myself at all last week because it was "that time of the month". I have a feeling I won't even come close to what you lost, but that is still really inspiring!! Great job! :wink:

thank you!!! I will give both of those a try. I have never been a fan of lemon...but I'm trying all kinds of new things these days so we will see! :)

as I'm reading your post, after each line I'm thinking to myself, "yep, uh huh, yes, yep, that's me" other than the being married part, because I'm not yet, but I am in a longterm relationship with an incredibly active person! I don't think I would be doing so well on my lifestyle transformation (not diet!!) if it weren't…

I'm the same height and hope to be at your current weight! That is where I was in high school and hoping to get back there! You look great and are an inspiration!!!

thanks everyone! I do add extras to my shakes...I have an app on my Iphone with recipes. I also eat a small, healthy snack mid morning and mid afternoon, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one who felt SO hungry....glad to know it will likely become less frequent! I don't have the Vi-Trim because I purchased…

I'm in! I'm also using Visalus, but to get a jump start on my weight loss! I'm in my first 90 day challenge now, but plan to do another so my hope is to be at 175 lbs by Christmas. SW: 204 GW: 175

I didn't know my diary was private...oops! Fixed that! I drink 2 Body by Vi shakes (1 at breakfast, 1 at lunch) The shake mix is 90 cals, 1 gram of fat, 7 grams of carbs, 5 grams of fiber and 12 grams of protein. I add in almond milk and fruits. I usually have a small snack between shakes such as an apple with peanut…

lol, me too!

I have been experiencing this too and have yet to figure it out. The other day all I did was take 2-3 small bites of yogurt and heartburn set in....

your transformation is very inspiring and you are absolutely beautiful! :)

Are you kidding?! There is a big difference! That is awesome!
