The problem I guess is not whether or not I feel this is a good idea. I KNOW it isnt. We're often put in a position of feeling badly for being disconnected, so during a time when one would think the other parties wanting to see our children would take our feelings into consideration. I just dont know how to proceed past…

I drink a protein shake in place of breakfast each day because otherwise I probably wouldnt eat anything. Breakfast is the meal I struggle with and I understand the repercussions of missing it all together, so I figured this route was the lesser of two evils. I like it, I feel full until lunch and I often have more energy…

I havent heard of it but I would LOVE to try some! I was hooked on Rockstar Punched before I started MFP, I gave it up with caffeine and whenever I see it, I get twitchy, I start calculating in my head to see if I can afford the sugar, sodium, and cals to drink one. I havent succumb yet but if there were a low…

To whomever wrote about Udi's above, I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE! Udi's is the best thing to happen to our house. Expensive but worth it. My son ate his first sandwich on Udi's bread and I cried! We're in Canada and its difficult to find Udi's here, we drive 2 hours and spend almost 9 dollars per loaf of bread. It is worth it…

This post made my night last night. My husband even likes it! My modifications got the recipe down to 125 cals per serving, so this ones definitely a keeper. I cant think of any other snack that I eat that is chocolatey that comes in that low. You are awesome, you have made my month. Hurray! :D

I started Sept 27 and though i've missed a couple of days, my overall fitness and tone has improved 100%. I have LOTS more endurance than I started out, i've got ABS, they're getting prettier by the day! I've never had muscular arms and now they are bulking up a bit too, which I love! I havent been following the meal plan…

It really does depend on the elasticity of your skin. When I had babies my skin went back within a few months, i've never had much for stretch marks, but then I didnt get my tattoos until after they were born. My whole left side is a tattoo now. If you know you are predisposed to stretch marks, then i'd suggest waiting.…

I just read another thread about ammonia smelling sweat. It has nothing to do with toxins, your body may be in ketosis. When the body burns fats, it produces ketones, which smell like ammonia. It's supposed to further burn those ketones down into carbon dioxide and water, but it can't always do that. One reason for that is…

I am a stay at home mom of 2 , a 5 year old and a 3 year old. I am also a professional photographer with a studio that I spend mostly weekends at. My husband is the breadwinner I suppose you could say, he owns a plumbing company. I am just at the beginning of a winter hiatus from my business so I can focus more on my…

I am doing P90x right now and LOVE it. Its program with diverse and varying workouts each week. I also really like Turbojam, its super fun and more like a party than a workout. I stick mostly to beachbody dvd's because I know they are well planned and executed. I also own Tony Hortons 10 minute trainer (awesome if you dont…

I suffered from Bulimia from ages 12-16 and then again from 18-20 until I became pregnant with my daughter. It did always seem like the easy way out but of course, that isnt the case. The enamel on my teeth is worn down, I always had EXTREME heartburn, I lost a lot of hair and could never grow fingernails etc. I applaud…

I'm part way through week 4 and I love it! Super intense and fast paced workouts. I've lost inches and gained a ton of upper body strength already. :)

The dizzy spells seemed to pass yesterday afternoon. At least I havent had one since about 1 p.m. yesterday. I know I need to increase my calorie intake, 1200 is what I average even though I am set to about 1500 per day. I am waiting it out today to see if they are going to come back before I make a drs appointment. I live…

I really like Tony Hortons 10 minute trainer videos. For accelerated results its 3 videos a day (30 mins!) The workouts are awesome and short and is a great way to build some endurance. I did 10 min trainer for 3 weeks and then moved on to P90x. Now i'm almost on week 3 for P90x. It was a great transition. I've heard a lot…

I lost over 50 lbs on the South Beach diet. After I started eating carbohydrates again I gained back about 20. I think its a great diet for seeing noticeble results quickly, but its hard to maintain, just because it is so limited. I stayed on phase one for more than the recommended 2 weeks and the lbs melted off quickly. I…

Before I started P90x I was doing Tony Hortons 10 minute trainer. It is awesome! The workouts are 10 mins each and for accelerated results the program suggests 3 10 minute workouts per day. At first I didnt think 10 mins would do anything but after about 3 weeks I had results I could see on my body and on the scale! Good…

P90x is a fantastic fitness program created my Tony Horton and distributed by Beachbody. It takes me a long time to explain it to people, and since i've never actually done the program I dont know how reliable my info would be anyways :P Here is the wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P90X

Hey MTurtles! You'd be starting one week later so you would be on a different schedule (i'd hit my recovery week one week sooner than you). But we're buddies anyways so motivation and support is here reguardless of when you start!
