  • You won't be starving if you reduce your calories and eat lots of good carbs and lots of protein. I suggest you eat at least 2-4 cups of veggies a day. Also make sure you are getting enough protein in your diet whether its from eggs, or lean meats or seafood.
  • You should eat more protein for sure. Have eggs for breakfast or a smoothie with protein powder. Lunch you can have chicken and veggies or a salad. I pack a bag with at least two cups of cut up veggies every afternoon. Things like Cauliflower and peppers can keep you satisfied. The other thing I would do is cut down on…
  • My coach lets me have cream in my coffee and I have lost 8 pounds in 12 days. I only have 1 cup with cream every day.
  • The first week is tough for sure...it gets easier. Once you see the weight falling off, it inspires you to keep going. Its important not to cheat. I am having my second weigh in tomorrow and feel pretty good about it. I continue to go to the gym and do low impact cardio because my coach said that she would monitor me and…

I am currently trying to get to 155-160. I will see how I feel when I get to that point. I have been going to the gym 3-4 times a week for the past two years…
  • I love coffee and I find that when I am hungry, its the best thing to have to get away from eating. I put cinnamon in my grounds when I make a pot of coffee and it gives it a great flavor. Because I am eating low carb, I got rid of my creamer and add a little bit of skim milk. Its awesome. I dont know if it has too many…
  • Hi there, I am new to this low carb eating and I really like it. I am only on day 10. I lost 5 and a half pounds my first week. I will say the last week I had a couple of tough days. I felt very hungry but then I realized that I needed more veggies in the afternoon to munch on and I felt much better. I am finding my second…
