I struggle to get started with a 30ds workout but find I am much more motivated if I warm up with something else like a 10 min run. I can deal with jillina if my endorphins have already kicked in. I actually love mixing it up and have been dong this type of theing 10-15 min stairmaster - take a drink and a breather 10-15…

Ground flax seed, chia seed and beans are also great fibre sources for the gluten inolerant.

I did day 1 level 1 today I plan to also run 5 km twice a week - don't want to lose what I worked for in this area

I have been reading about the connection between calcium intake and weight loss. Make sure that you are getting lots of dietary calcium. If you aren't your body will store fat. Also make sure your water intake is high enough. Both can jumpstart a stalled weight loss effort.

I do not eat low carb but I do have to eat gluten free and these both qualify. thanks. Looking forward to your chocolate chip cookie recipes :-)

I get seve etremelly gas from both gluten and dairy

Have gone from intervals of running 1 min walking 1 min to running 7 min walking 2 min and ran a toatl of 7 km yesterday

Here is my favourite dairy free ice cream .... it is better than ice cream and does not need an ice cream maker 1 can coconut milk (the richer version which for me is the gold can tastes best but is higher fat) 1.5 cups frozen berries 1 cup sugar Throw it into your food processor and process until smooth Put in a bowl and…

This is what I am trying (one week in) since it involves no investment in equipment or a gym membership. I am doing pushups and those squats where you use your arms to lower yourself in front of a chair. I don't have anywhere to do chin ups. Oh, yes, side planks ... what else can I do?

Whole foods in general are better. Each part of the whole is always made to complement or balance the rest. Take something away and you are missing out. Studies are now showing that natural fats from eggs and cheeses, etc. are not the bad guys when it comes to heart disease it is the chemical filled processed meats and…

Mine is set at 1200 and I usually burn 400-600 in exercise. I was eating all my exercise calories back but doing that I was gaining weight so I have started not eating them all back and I am losing. I probably net about 1000 now. Please ... those of you who believe in eating more to lose ... don't flame me. I tried it and…

I don't know much about protein powders. Are there any that are gluten and dairy free?

This is an old thread but I will revivie it and see what happens .... I, too, am eating high fibre for medical reasons. I am gluten intolerant as well so I look for non-wheat fibre sources and I believe in getting my fibre from whole foods not Benefibre. Here is what I typically do .... First, my main "bread" is made from…

Hmmm.... not if you are lactose intolerant :) likre me

What about the intensity of you workouts ... do you find you just can't do it at that time of the month?

Can I still join? CW 130 GW 120 by the end of june cardio: stairmaster, running, swimming starting to try weights April 1 130 lbs

My husband suggests this: get a tatoo of yourself now on a place that will shrink as you lose weight so that later it will be small and represent the skinny you

I try to eat lots of fibre, too I am gluten intolerant so that rules out a number of fibre sources but being prone to polyps, I don't want to skim on fibre I eat this bread made from flax seed http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/od/breads/r/flaxbasicfoc.htm I cut it into nine pieces which means each slice has 8g fibre and 250…

I can't sleep if I am hingery so I ususally have a small snack at bedtime but controlled. Snacking at night can easily go out of control. Also, I find if I eat much sugar or refined carbs at bedtime I wake up feeling groggy. If I stick to high fibre, high protein foods al day I wake up feeling energetic. :)

sugar makes me tired ... and it makes me crave more sugar ... which makes me more tired .... and on and on it goes :-P

I just discovered this recipe and it is better than the one I posted last http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/od/breads/r/flaxbasicfoc.htm

Yes, I thgink I will keep my legumes, too. We had a lovely bean soup for supper last night and chili is on the menu tomorrow.

very interseting ... thank you. I check out marksdailyapple.com There are some great recipes there that fit right into the way I eat. I am gluten free and dairy free but need to eat high fibre for colon health (bad genetics in this area). I love the cracker recipes using nuts and seeds. I might have trouble giving up…

You know, I have always struggled to keep my weight down right from puberty but by watching what I ate and exercising and I've succeeded. I have never been skinny but I have always been relatively trim and fit. In highschool I kept my 5'3" frame between 120 and 130 and today at 42 and after two kids, I am 130 at the end of…

My options are dairy free since I am lactose intolerant A mug of warm almond milk with cinnamon and nutmeg hot chicken broth with lime juice, soy sauce and a dash of hot sauce (thai soup style)

these macaroons (really more like cookies) are a bit fussy but amazingly delicious http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Chocolate-Macaroons-with-Chocolate-or-Caramel-Filling-105084

^^ same here - same weight - same unbelief of others

More and more people are gluten intolerant, myself included. I can't eat wheat. If I do, I am in pain with gas, cramps and bloating. there are numerous other side effects I won't go into here. I do believe that genetic engineering is at the root of the huge increase in those who cannot tolerate wheat but if you are not one…
