Just a few things to note and I apologize if any of these are repeats. There are two major culprits that will affect your scale (weight) results. 1- Not drinking enough water 2- To much sodium in your diet. I have this problem sometimes when I'm really going hard on the protein. Both will cause you to retain water. Water…

I think you may get more out of a brisk walk. Unless you run a lot. I know a lot of people who start out racing and get a cramp, etc by not streching well or warming up and wind up walking and running. Good excersise either way!

My diary is always open. 1200-1400 calories for going on 4 months. I eat a lot of protein.

I did a my fitness paypal entry in my diary one day to replicate what a standard lunch used to be. Lets just say my lunches used to be more than my entire 1400 calorie day is now and it was usually breaded boneless buffalo wings, chicken strips, etc. I haven't had fried food going on 4 months now. I'm sure my entire body…

I had the same thing happen at the gym a few weeks ago. Didn't do anything to crazy but worked out for the first time with the trainer. My triceps were sore for about 5 days. To the point where I could hardly pickup up a bottle of water in front of me to take a drink. Now everything is back to good. Probably used muscles…

I can sum this up in one word. "WOW". A true inspiration! Here's to continued success! -Joe

lots of how to videos on youtube of microwave eggs. Like 1 minute and they are done. Have to open microwave a few times to fluff the eggs but looks too easy! Check it out!

Do you find yourself yawning like I do at 6am workout? I usually try to eat a protein bar 30 minutes prior to working out. I'm wondering if I cut out eating before workout maybe I'll have more energy. I just feel really tired at 6am. I do get 7-8 hours of sleep at night. Might just be blood sugar if I'm eating something…

My normal lunch daily (mon-Friday) consists of one light string cheese, 1 dannon fit greek black cherry yogurt, handfull of whole almonds, and about 8oz of smoked turkey from the deli. It might sound gross but I put a nice queeze of horsradish spicey mustard and dip it in that. 4 tablespoons of that is only like 25…

Either more water daily to flush your system or less sodium. Not really any happy medium.

Great job bud! I got to that tipping point at well when I was approaching 230lbs. For 5'8" that's bs. I finally started and haven't stopped. Below 200 now and goal is 160 around Sept 1st. I need to get more info from you on your workout routine. Do you take any suppliments, etc.

Thanks everyone! This is the first time I've ever had a tool that told me the honest truth about the calories I was eating. When the daily number is up it's up. Hope to chat more soon. Joe

My wife and I use this program and live in Kalamazoo.:happy:
