  • I'm reading up online about it and I'm a little confused about the heart rate monitor part, does it automatically read your hr or do you have to push something and it only reads it then?
  • Thanks I will look into that one, I have not heard that one before!
  • It does seem pretty nice, although I see what you mean regarding the price! I wish it was a little cheaper!
  • Hy Arydria, is the Mio Alpha the one that is compatible with the Iphone?
  • Hi Tami!! So sorry it took me so long to get back to you, I wish I could see the community section on the mobile app of MFP! How did your challenge go? I found that for me personally, I had to identify the foods that I liked, and then figure out a way to get a healthier version of what I wanted so I could stick with it…
  • I am sure there is some scientific answer to this, and I may even be doing it wrong, but for me if I can get through my cardio, I feel a bit more pumped to do my strength training. If I try to go straight to lifting, I just feel so unmotivated!
  • Hi Laura! Personally, I use the Thermoplus and Catalyst together! I take them both in the morning, then I take my 2nd Catalyst about 30 minutes before lunch, and then again when I go to bed. I just started with the Leptilean, and I find that works well in the evening before supper. For me personally, I am more prone to…
  • Welcome to the group!! :)
  • Hi and welcome! Sorry this is months late in welcoming you! I can't see the community messages on my mobile app of MFP so sometimes I miss seeing new posts! How did your challenge go? Feel free to friend me if you like, I can see my friends post on my home screen of my app and can follow along easier that way. Can't wait…
  • Hi! Sorry for the lack of response, for some reason I can't see community messages on the mobile version of MFP which is the one I use the most. Honestly, I really love the thermoplus in conjunction with the catalyst, but if you could only get one, it would really depend on what your goals are. For me the thermoplus seems…
  • Hi Brannon, I'm sorry I just saw this message, I have been using the mobile app for my fitness pal which doesn't show me the community groups and all. For me, when I first started with Advocare, I just made it a point to eat better and make healthier choices throughout my day. I didn't deprive myself of foods that I liked,…
  • I have a sensitive tummy as well, and I love using the Thermoplus and Catalyst together. I actually had a bit of an issue last time when I used the MNS system, but the thermoplus and catalyst I am able to use daily with no problem and it does seem to help tremendously!
  • Wow a 5k, that is awesome!!! I'm still having trouble getting past that 1 mile or 1.50 mile mark, but eventually I know I'll get there. At first it was really stressing me out, because I feel like I should be able to do the 5k by now, but I figure as long as I'm getting out there and doing something and making healthy…
  • I definitely want to try the O2 Gold for sure. I would like to see how it would affect my runs. I don't think I have tried the strawberry mango spark yet, but the fruit punch is still my number one favorite! I am not using an mns system currently, just the carb ease, thermoplus, and catalyst.
  • So how's everyone's progress coming? So far I have been staying on track pretty good. I have been giving myself one cheat day a week, but it's not like the whole day, but rather one thing or meal. I'm going to my nieces wedding in two weeks so for this week no cheat day lol! Has anyone tried the pink lemonade spark? I have…
  • Hey guys! Last week was a little off for me to, but I just made it my goal to focus this week. I did a step class and some cardio today and I feel really good! I'm done with my challenge, and I'm using the Spark, Catalyst, Thermoplus, and Carb Ease.
  • Oh that sounds really good! I am a huge fan of slow cooker meals, because especially with kids and life in general it is great to have something easy to make that does not take a lot of 'hands on' time. Thanks for sharing, I will have to try that out!! :)

  • I will have to look for some healthy whole wheat pasta. I have so far except for lean cuisine stayed away from pasta, because it does seem to have a lot of calories in there. I have bought leaner ground beef more, and have started experimenting with lean turkey burgers and things because it seems a lot healthier. Yesterday…

  • Awesome! Keep us updated on your results!!

  • Try mixing your fiber drink with either your spark drink or some sunny delight, makes it so much better!!! Hope that helps! :)

  • Hey! Congrats on your weight loss! That is awesome results!! I love the Spark, it really wakes me up in the morning and gets me through my day. I have found a lot of people don't like the Fiber drink, but I either mix it in with my Spark or some sunny D and it works really great. I had a few bumps on the MNS part, so I'm…

  • Hi! So far I am down one pants size so that is awesome! I had a little trouble switching from cleanse to max phase, but that seems to be working itself out! It may have just been a stomach bug though, been taking it easy for a day or two, but excited to start my cardio back up! :)
    in Hi! Comment by jsingley899 May 2013
  • That is really great! I'm now on day 6 of my cleanse phase and I have lost 5 pounds so far and one pants size. When I look in the mirror I don't exactly look different I don't think yet, but that might just because I see myself every day. I'm looking forward to the max phase to see how different it is from the cleanse…

  • Oh very cool! Nice to meet you! I'm on day 5, and I am seeing some weight loss starting! How are your results?
    in Hi! Comment by jsingley899 May 2013
  • Thanks!! I'll look into that! :)
  • Thanks guys! I will def make sure I pick up some of that cream and I'll try that before getting any other sweetener to see how that works. Excited to know I don't have to give up my coffee! :)
  • I'm brand new to Keto, currently I am on day one. I'd love to make some Keto friends that way we can all support and encourage one another. Anyone on the group is free to add me. I have been on mfp for about a year or so, but only starting logging in regularly since yesterday when I found out about Keto. I plan to stick to…
  • I'm going to have to find that heavy cream, I couldn't seem to locate it last time. Is this in with the milk or over by the evaporated milk section? Also, I am not sure I was digging the stevia taste...is truvia or splenda good to use or is that a no go for keto?
  • I used to drink Iced coffee from starbucks just because it was so good. However, my norm is one cup of hot coffee with 1 teaspoon of sugar and some coffeemate creamer. Now that I'm on keto, I know that has got to change. I have never heard of bulletproof coffee before..what is that? I looked for heavy whipping cream when I…
  • That is awesome!! :)
