  • That was what my first thought too. Also, how often do you weigh yourself? I sometimes find that my weight can vary 3-4lbs in a day, but more if I'm on my period. As the previous poster said, I don't know your gender so this may not even apply to you.
  • First time I heard of Body by Vi was from a friend who called it Body by Di (as in diarrhea). Don't know if that's true or not, but it turned me right off! lol. Seriously, I'm all for shakes if you're in a rush and can't prepare something. Most mornings, I like making a shake with fruit, veggies, and protein powder just…
  • When I add a teabag of non caffeinated chammomile to a mug of boiling water, I count that as water. Because it is H20 with some flavour added. And adding flavour does not change the underlying chemical composition of a substance. Unless of course boiling water changes it's chemical composition. Which it doesn't. So please…
  • Made this for dinner last night (held the corn and chilis). Delish! Hubby gobbled it up and told me I needed to make it again!
  • Congrats!!
  • My hubby is the housecleaner. He went crazy this weekend when I was working lol. Thanks for all the suggestions guys! Sometimes it helps just being able to tell someone else that's it's a "hungry" day. Now I'm off to make a pot of tea!
  • Thanks! I think I've been doing pretty good with the protein and water today (diary should be unlocked). I think it's probably just a boredom thing. It's my day off and my house is clean (lol) so I have nothing to do. Does anyone else have this problem? They get bored and feel like they need to eat something?
  • I've always wanted a tattoo running down my right side. I have a very specific one in mind, so once I lost the weight and look/feel fabulous, that's what I'm gonna do.
  • Chicken breast on black beans and salsa covered in light cheddar cheese, with a bit of avocado on the side. 445 cal total.
  • I totally get the feeling. It's hard seeing all your friends and family having babies and you have nothing. Hubby and I have only been trying for about 8 months but no matter how many times I tell myself "it will happen, just give it time", it doesn't always work. Hubby tells me to focus on becoming the healthiest person I…
  • I want to cut back on the amount of refined sugar I eat and lose 8lbs.
  • I like using MR shakes for my breakfast as I find it very difficult to get anything down first thing in the morning. But I've found most shakes have a ton of sugar or aspartame, which will only make you crash and feel hungry a short while later. I've done some exploring and have settled on an organic vegan protein shake…
  • Wow. Never really thought of it that way before. I always just measure by volume, but I wouldn't be surprised if I've been over-eating by mistake. Time to buy a food scale!
  • Hi newbie here! I was recently diagnosed with PCOS after a miscarriage. Just started on Metformin and am in the process of cutting out refined sugars/carbs. It's hard work but I think having positive support from people that understand what you're going through helps (hence why I joined this group). Feel free to add me!
