Wellt thats encouraging....

Have you ever microwaved eggs? It may not sound good but they are delicious....just crack a couple eggs in a bowl, add a tiny bit of water and beat then microwave for a minute or two and stir inbetween.

Well I can tell you that everyone on here is going to yell at you for having only 500 net calories :tongue: That is way too little for anyone. Slow weight loss is the way to go. Im relatively new to this site and that is one thing I see repeatedly. You also most likely will not be able to maintain a 500 a day calorie…

I woudl say they are safe to take. I take one or two everyday. I have high blood pressure and my Dr recommends I stay on them becasue it helps with my readings. When I go off of them my pressure goes back up. A lot of blood pressure pills are diuretics anyway.

I agree. My cousin is trying a new fad diet by taking drops and eating 500 cals per day fro 21 days. She got so mad at me when I told her the only way to really do this and be effective is watching calories and being sure to eat enough calories and exercise. Paying for the drops will do nothing.....its te 500 calories per…

That is also helpful. thank you!

Thank you. I will message you.

I think i will buy some protine shakes and try that to eat back my exercise calories and kill 2 birds with one stone. or i will research higher protine foods that are not so high in fat.

Well If I home cook a meal its fresh. Its just my lunch at work that is the chicken breast. I eat low fat string cheese and hard boiled eggs for snacks normally or special k cracker chips for the low calorie option, just made a fresh bowl of mixed fruit, bananas. Im just not seeing it.

This is where I get so confused. The poster above you just said I am eating too many carbs. idk. I just have to keep at it and figure it out. I guess different things work for different people. Im first going to try to eat back my exercise calories and go from there. thanks everyone for the help, advice, etc.

salads, fruit, veggies, etc. To me that is fresh. I am not a veggie fan but I am trying. I cant tell you the last time I warmed up a frozen dinner???

Actually I havent been eating any pre packaged foods. I avoid smart ones, etc. The only frozen thing I eat is the pre cooked frozen grilled chicken breast because it is not high in sodium or calories. I stopped the frozen foods right away when i seen everyone else saying they are bad and have too much sodium. We cook light…

Ok I will try to start eating back most of my calories and see how it goes. It cant hurt to try. thanks!

I don't feel like i'm starving. I feel pretty content most days. I figured out my BMR and x 1.2 for a sedintary job and just reduced that by about 20%

Do you think that would help speed up the weight loss a little?

I would go have fun. If you love everything there just take one dab of each of what you want. That way you arent missing out but are still cutting out a lot of calories and then dont go for a second trip.

Same here. I have done 2 days so far. Will do my 3rd after work. I about died. Its a hard workout but I feel that it will work. I am very sore plus i did a run/walk last night and walked up hill....which didnt help my pain :tongue: I really hope I can stick with it. i also took measurements before because I hear others say…

You are starting back up. That is the most important thing! 12 lbs will seem like such a small amount compared to what you have already lost and I bet it comes off quickly for you. good luck!

ok I just ordered it but are there 3 different ones or are all 3 levels on one dvd?

Good. Im glad to see everyone here pretty much agrees with this!! I love fruit, especially in the summer months!

but fruit is good for people....unless like you said you are a diabetic. I know im not in the situation I am in due to too much fruit....or corn :tongue:

Thanks everyone. I feel better. I was so dang mad after working so hard to get that weight off and then one day and its right back. grrrrrrrrr. I am really going to up my water consumption this week!

wow! 41 lbs in 41 days! that is amazing.

wow that gives me so much motivation! yay. so glad I found this site :happy: :happy: :happy: :happy:

Thanks Debbie! I just may have to buy one. Where do I get them? Just like wal mart or something by the fitness eqpt?

9 very pretty

I see this alot. what does bump mean ? :tongue: Is it like a fist bump

My biggest pet peeve is that I am very new on here (day #4) and I spend a lot of time in the online community looking at posts and everyone has a different idea about what to do. Im more confused than before I started :p I think all I am going to do is be sure between food and exercise I am burning more than I am consuming…
