Dream a Little Dream :heart:

true love :heart:

I wish! I have always wanted to live in Wilmington, NC :smile:

I occasionally make pizza's using low carb tortillas, 3 TBS. low sodium pasta sauce, a little cheese, mushrooms, peppers and grilled chicken.. very filling and yummy :)

For breakfast I usually have 2 eggs scrambled in coconut oil with 1/2 cup of peppers and a half of a turkey burger patty.. or when I get tired of eggs I'll switch to a protein shake for a few days with some low sugar fruit such as berries :) Or you could always forgo "breakfast foods" for breakfast and have leftovers from…

I have some by Champion that I love! They go by cup size instead of S,M,L so they fit way better than any sports bra I've ever owned. And it's the only sports bra that I have found to hold me up during workouts.

I have the jack lalanne power juicer.. I love it! I even have two books full of juicing recipes! I bought it from Costco for around $100.00

I have to eat low carb due to insulin resistance.. I never eat any of the low carb packaged foods! Most of them are very questionable.. My diet consists of mostly lean meats, fish, low sugar fruits and non - starchy veggies and the occasional serving of cheese. I make sure to eat at least two cups of veggies with every…

I have to stick to low carb due to insulin resistance from PCOS.. I try to get all of the carbs I do eat from low sugar fruit and non-starchy vegetables

yumm :)

I have my carbs set at 30% due to insulin resistance caused by PCOS.. 40% protein and 30% fat

Thank you so much for the link! I'm watching it right now.. it's very interesting... especially since I have recently switched to a mostly whole clean foods diet

Thank you for all of the suggestions! :smile: I might start planning my meals a little in advance just to make sure I can get closer to my daily calorie goal. I don't know why I didn't think of avocado.. I love avocado even though I haven't had it in a while. I guess I should add that I'm not restricting all carbs just…

Thanks! :smile: Sadly I need to watch my carb intake due to insulin resistance caused by the PCOS.. but maybe I could switch out the serving of bread for brown rice instead to add a few more calories

sounds yummy!

I mash a quarter to a half of an avocado with a fork and mix in a little sea salt and put it on toast as a treat sometimes... it's really good. :smile:

My husband started the body by vi challenge but never really followed through with the program. The monthly auto ships kept coming and now we have like 10 bags of it in our pantry. I don't use it everyday but maybe a few times a week I'll make a protein shake with it.. the shakes are very yummy. I found a post on here a…

I understood what she said and that is exactly what she told me .. I never said that her word was gold.. was just sharing my experience.. it unfortunately does take around 6 weeks for me to start seeing consistent losses on the scale.. I don't count the first week as a real loss as I know I'm losing water weight and such.…

15 pounds is an amazing loss for this only being your second week! :smile: I am in my second week as well and have only lost 3 pounds so far.. but i am determined to stay in this for the long run and change my entire lifestyle :smile:

I have been suffering from PCOS too.. it's so frustrating!! Especially when it comes to weight loss. Welcome to MFP!! I will add you :smile:

omg this looks delicious

I was told by a dietician that it takes 6 weeks for the body to adjust to a new diet and exercise program and for results to start showing on the scale.. I find this is very true for me.. every time I clean up my diet and start eating better it takes about 6 weeks to see consistent losses on the scale

yumm :)

I am only in my second week.. but normally when I clean up my diet and start eating better it takes about 6 weeks to start seeing consistent losses on the scale

Does anyone know if this is safe to do if your overweight?? I have been REALLY wanting to try it but have read horror stories of people tearing ligaments in their knees and such!!

It's 1:06 am and I am wide awake due to my afternoon cup of coffee I had!! I'm so miserable and need to be up for an early morning hike tomorrow!! I just took a couple of Advil PM's .... hoping to get to sleep soon.
