I have been bringing hard boiled eggs. They should keep for awhile without putting them in the fridge. My other go to is just plain nuts. Today I had some almonds. Very handy and quite filling actually!

Curious if anyone else has tried these. I'm grain free for lent and I want to try to make one or two treats over the 40 day period. The flourless chocolate cake is what I will be trying first!

Another thing, if your brother or anyone else you know goes to an AA meeting, go with them! You will see another side of this disease. A good side. The people are amazing and awesome. I have went to two open meetings with my daughter and I always leave with new information and a new understanding of what these people are…

Try the Al-Anon meetings, face to face or online. I have done both and it really does help. Usually we are sick too. We have enabled, tried to control, etc etc. My daughter is an alcoholic. She is in recovery. But what I am learning is that I cannot do this thing for her, she has to do it herself. She recently had to leave…

Drink lots of water!

Add some extra virgin coconut oil to your diet. If you can't find a way to use it, just take a tablespoon straight. it's really good for you!

I know you are out there because you have logged the food in your diary! Please connect with me. :)

I am making this for dinner tomorrow night!

We are exactly the same! Except I'm 41 years old and only 5'3". :) We are at the same weight and my goal is to lose another 72 pounds this year. I'm doing a Beachbody 90 day Fit Challenge right now which is helping to hold me accountable to working out and eating right. I can always use more support though and would love…

Some great suggestions here, thanks!

That's mine too! Well, I stop at the "have been trained by it". But the rest of it is good too!

Thanks Tara. I'm just trying to educate myself on this stuff and not worry about my weight right now. Once I start doing things right, it will start coming off again. Tausha, sorry for my lack of weigh-ins.

My apologies to the pink team, but I am not doing well with this challenge! It all started going on vacation and starting out at +6 the first week. I have not managed to get anything off and actually weigh a few more pounds. I eat so healthy but haven't been working out due to my feet. I have my custom orthotics which are…

I haven't been on for awhile either! Doing well, weight is up a little but keep it the same for the chart. My new goal is to get to 189 by Thanksgiving!

LOL

Didn't do well last week. Keep my weight the same! ugh!!

i have just discovered his new Beyond Organic launching in November! My husband tried to tell me about it a week or so ago when he saw something about it on TBN, but I didn't realize it was Jordan Rubin. He was talking about beyond organic and green fed (not just grass fed) beef. I am very excited about it!! Private…

Hello people! Sorry I have been MIA this week. Extremely busy! Weigh in 199.0 so a lost of .2. Need to start working harder on actual workouts. Hope to get the orthotics early next week! Then I can get a new pair of Brooks and some new black dress shoes for work. Got my blood test results from the neurologist the other…

Thanks Gretchen!

I would love the yogurt recipe too!

You still didn't tell us what PMSL means!

omg i am pmsl so hard right now! lol. ycmu!! (you crack me up..i just made that up.)

Are you from another country??? :) PMS = PreMenstrual Syndrome (bloating, cramps, appetite issues, etc). This is a common term even before the internet was created!! lol (laugh out loud). I am cracking myself up over here. I wish you could see me! Edited to Add: I am an idiot. I thought you said pms. Now I see it is pmsl.…

great job on resisting pizza and ice cream! Snack sounds yum, I will have to try that!

I had to google NSV to figure it out! lol (laugh out loud)

I forgot to post my weight! 199.2 which is down .6 pounds. However, I was up 3.2 pounds last week and didn't record it due to TOM, so even though this is small, I really lost almost 4 pounds from last week! I am going to keep this up from this point forward! Great job everyone. I love this group!

lol, that made me laugh out loud! (that's what lol means)....LOL!

Maybe try just doing the Yoga once a week. It is really supposed to be good for you. I was up 3.2 pounds last week due to TOM, but it's all off now. I'm not sure if it's all hormonal or actually the way I eat. I don't tend to log as much at that time. That's probably a good indicator that I'm not eating as well!

awesome!

Thought you guys might want to see someone else's results that they posted from another thread. If this doesn't motivate you to at least give the plan a try for one round, I don't know what will!! Over 30 pounds in 51 days. That is pretty amazing!
