Now, that's sweet:)

Oh, yes, My Chains are Gone!! And also His Eye is on the Sparrow. Sheesh, what song doesn't make me cry?

Dance With My Father You are My Sunshine Layla The Leader of the Band Any Eric Clapton song from the 70's reminds me of my dad. So does Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson. (Cry instantly when I hear any of 'em.) Also most Christmas songs (even Frosty at times) and Patriotic songs. My kids were just making fun…

I think I am getting there with the annoyed/frustrated stage. I was very invested in the NROL program, but find I spend a lot of time "figuring" things out. I will need to check out strong lifts.

Awesome!! this is totally mindblowing to me. thanks for sharing!!!

This is so fabulous!!! I am thrilled to hear this. I am feeling the same way to a lesser degree and I am so thrilled to see that what I am starting to take in as my belief is actually working for others as well.

great loss! Thanks for sharing!!!

sounds AMAZING!!!! Thank you!!!:flowerforyou:

I don't drink it to lose weight, but I have found d/t it's high potassium it can help me offset a high sodium day, so therefore, I feel leaner and less bloated if I overdo it.

AWESOME!!! They asked for it:bigsmile: not that I endorse unkindness, but you could also use another Forrest quote "stupid is as stupid does"....but don't stoop to their level.

Inspiring, especially in such a short time. Can i add you?

AMAZING!!!

This is one of my favorite recipes--Chicken Tortilla Soup. MMMM

Thanks for sharing! This was posted at the perfect time for me!!!

Thanks for the support!! I seriously cannot figure how I would use a bench for a step up. They are super high!!!

Does anyone else have trouble in their gym? I cannot do step ups because I don't have a step in the weight room to do them on. Since I wasn't able to do that particular exercise (and am a little shy to do others in the gym), I have been doing other exercises that work the same muscle group. Has anyone else had this issue?

Wow!! Great explanation! I will need to review it a few times, but very thorough. Thanks!!

my understanding is you take 10-15% off of your TDEE and just eat that every day. It already counts in the activity level so you don't have to bother with eating back calories, etc. Just be sure to never go below your BMR or you will risk harming your metabolism.

Go to Scooby site and you can calculate your TDEE and BMR. It will tell you how to calculate your calories according to your activity level. :smile: Just saw that you have already done that oops, not very observant am I? :flowerforyou:

Thank you Braves!!!:happy:

Well, I learned this....I took 1.5 tsp (solid) in my tea....some gi distress currently. I will definitely follow this guideline from now on.

Yes, great advice!!!

This^^^^^

You are such an inspiration!!! Thanks for the post!!! And I agree wholeheartedly with the love that is felt for all involved in opening our eyes to the EM2WL philosophy!!!

Yummers!! Sounds great:)

I'm with you on that!!! I did body weight and dumbbells for my workout A. Going to do Workout B tonight. I have access to some barbells, but am concerned about starting them at this stage. But can't wait to. :drinker:

I am down 1 lb only from original start weight. However, I gained 5 lb with reset. I am down just a few inches overall, but I feel more compact. And I haven't even started lifting heavy regularly yet. Just 1 time/ wk at gym and added hand weights at home 2x/wk. I feel better overall now, and feel that this will work for…

So glad to hear this!!! Congrats!!!

oh yum, sweet and salty~!!!
