  • I can't stand RTD protein drinks anymore - Tried Premier, Muscle Milk, Atkins, EAS. The only one that I can remotely tolerate is Atkins, and it's not all that healthy. My current protein powder is MyProtein Impact Whey Isolate. Labdoor.com independently rated it #1 for purity, accuracy, etc. I agree that Genepro is a sham.…

  • Thank you so much for sharing your story! You brought me to tears....the good kind. :-) Your advice is great. It's sound and real. You inspired me. I'd lost 70 pounds myself - only to gain 40 back in the wake of a hysterectomy. I'm on the track to lose it again. Thank you for taking the time to inspire ME.

  • I weigh myself religiously every morning. I don't always record it....but it helps me keep in check and to realize that today I may need to be more mindful of my water intake, etc.

  • For me, I hang on to how much easier physical activity is now. Before I'd lost weight and was smoking, things like stairs and parking lots would literally take the wind put of me. Now? "they ain't no thang!" I actually say that to myself and grin with the knowedge and realization that it's true. Now when I take a flight of…
