Emilymagic: i made a bunch of date/nut/coconut balls. They are sweet and tasty and satisfy that craving for dessert or a cookie after dinner or evening. Google recipes. I used mejool dates, walnuts, coconut oil, coconut and almond hazelnut butter. Mix it all in food processor or blender, roll into little balls and put in…

Day 9 for me. I started on boxing day. Im feeling great! Better than i have in a long time and i look less puffy already. I am still tracking my calories too even tho u are not supposed to.

Response to above on calories. I log my food and stay within calorie allowance. Funny thing is that its been easier to hit my macros since i cut out bread and sugar. Im on 1200 to 1700 calories depending on workout days so not much room for 3 cookies with coffee in the afternoon anymore. As to after 30 days, well to be…

Just a question...what are you eating?...if its 2000 of fairly unhealthy food...that could be the issue. I wasn't losing weight for five or six weeks, tracking my calories, driving myself nuts.....then over the last few weeks I have eaten really clean...veggies, salad, oatmeal, lean protein...NO refined carbs (no sugar, no…

Buy some 5ib weights to start. Start with three basic strength exercises: 1) bicep curls, 3 sets of 12 to 15 curls 2) military presses over ur head, 3 sets of 12 to 15 3) tricep extensions, 3 sets of 12 to 15. Rest 2 mins in between. Do that three to four times a week. That will get u started. Biggest strength training…
