  • Thanks for your input. I'm on a special plan under medical advisement. Very high protein, low fat and even lower carb. I haven't had a sold change in pounds the last few weeks. When I went in for evulation,it was suggested to meto cut back on fats because that is where I go over the most. Also I was told not to worry so…

  • Their review are so-so on amazon.com for products. A lot of diabetic websites offer this brand. If I'm going to order space food, I use nashuanutrition.com they have a ton of selects but I'm not sure if they ship internationally though.
  • You can buy them at Walmart or any drug store. Your reading can vary pending on if you drank a lot of water before the test or not. I don't feel like I wasted the 5 bucks I spent on them but sometimes I feel disappointed when I test and come out low or negative then a few days later in the purple. Weird. But maybe it's…
  • Hi. I am also High protein low carb. I do a shake in the morning with my coffee, a shake or quest bar for lunch with 2 cups of veggies, then 8oz of lean meat for dinner with another 2 cups of veggies, and a protein snack. I got a lot of recipes from Pinterest.
  • I love their chocolate syrup! 2 tbsp of that in with my mocha coffee protein frappe in the morning, taste just like a real mocha frappe at Starbucks! Its awesome!
  • I love peanut butter. But I am trying to cut back on fat and carbs, keeping protein on the higher side. I will try it in my morning shake. Thanks everyone! However, if you take fat free cool whip and mix it with an equal amount of reduced fat skippy creamy peanut butter it taste just like a white chocolate peanut butter…
  • Thanks everyone! I have decided to keep on pushing threw, someone had recently said to me it was the easiest/hardest plan they have ever had to stick to and I agree. I really needed the extra support, thank you very much. I plan on chucking threw the best I can. I'm glad I'm not alone out there. Thanks again :)
  • You've lost 30lbs since March? That is awesome. I have lost 13 since the beginning of May but I need a kick in the pants right now.
  • I did download it. But thank goodness for the one week free trail. I've used it once. It's pretty cool to track your stuff and recipes just email your coach from the all. However, I'm right with you and I'm not even sure I used it a full day. It's no like MPF you can't make friends or anything. I rather do this with some…
  • Wow! Thanks everyone. I will check put each of your suggestions. My dad found mocha coffee protein by Big Train at Winn Dixie, I mixed the powder with a cup of coffee and ice it was delicious.
  • Hey. I was told to exercise 5-30 mins only per day. However, being a stay at home mom I probably do more running around then I should. I was talking to my coach about this, this morning. He recommended to keep doing what I was doing and if I needed more, try to only increase in the protein field if possible. Also you can…
  • Me too! Started last week and down 4lbs. :)
  • Hi. I'm J- I just started last week, down 4lbs. :) this week my family is in from out of town we are going to the beach for a week. I hope I can be strong. I'm using alternative products.
  • Honestly, I hated it so much. I didn't even make it to 10days :(. I returned it and went back to doing insanity. How do you like it so far?
  • I consider them low carb, low calorie, low fat (most of them), high protein, and freaking delicious.
  • My coach have me a list of foods I can have also a bunch of other brands to try their good products however anything I eat has to fall into the criteria. If it doesn't match all of it I can't have it. :/ it's hard but seems to be cheaper than buying all IP products. Inbox me and I'll send you my list if you like.
  • Listen to your body first. If you can't excerise then don't. Shoot for a goal of 1200. If u need more try to cut bad fats and sugars out of your diet. You will lose it for sure. Whatch your carb and protein in take as well.
  • Wow! Thank you for all the feed back everyone! I'm sorry if I offended anyone using the word "addiction" that was not my intension at all. I do realize I need to work on my emotional connection with food, especially sweets. Its just, that food has always been there for me and its just a bonus it doesn't talk back. However,…
  • Good to know she stinks at yoga, I wont buy it.
  • Hey Sharon! I'm J- I'll be your friend :)
  • Water, water, water. I try to drink a whole bottle first give myself a few minutes then reevaluate. Sometimes, I'm hungry still, and most times I was just bored. Try to go for a walk or do something you have been putting off. Maybe you just need a little distraction and then before you know it, you will have moved on.
  • Standing poses. Are there stretches for ankles? :/ hmm
  • Try her 6 week 6 pack it's tough! More intense compared to this one!
  • 10 days for each phase. It's gets easier then harder that way. I like the program. I like that it was simple and quick. I have a busy schedule so 20/30minutes a day for me is awesome! Good luck gal! If you need help along the way I'm here for you!
  • Do what is comfortable for you. I started off at a walk of 3.3 and run of 5.4, walking for 5 mins warmup and cool down then 1 min intervals in between for 30 mins. Completing about 2 miles in that time. Now I walk at 3.5 run at 6.8 for the same amount of time and get about 3mi in. If I can go longer I do. One if my friends…

  • Unsweetened almond milk!!
  • Do it! I love C25K by Zen labs! I got a bunch of girls from work to sign up for a Mud Run with me, this one is 4+mi with over 20 obstacles.There are girls on my team over 250lbs, some that never run or exercise either. Trust me and I am no where near top notch myself. But we are all on week three together, we may run at…
