I actually agree with the first poster....I lost 40 pounds here two years ago....gained back 20 of it (UGH) so now I am back, and strong. I lost the weight, and then it started to plateau...so I listened to the logic of "eat more to lose" well, that did not work for me. After talking to the doctors and all...turns out,…

because of poor choices...... end of story. LOL

Everyone KNOWS the calories don't count if you drink a diet coke with it. LOL

hummus......the end

Yay! Unicorns are pretty. :) Oh, yeah, and spot reduce? No. Overall fat loss and toning, yep :)

Ditto....I was all ready to jump. Very funny. Got my blood pumping this morning. LOL

That is true too....I guess that is where I am...I just love everyone. LOL

Very well put. It is a Christian owned company...they are going to be verbal about their stance. Now I am seriously questioning my dentist though...I am sure she is related to the devil....I just know it. LOL Oh, PS....I love me some chick fila! :)

I have a problem with the nausea as well....especially if I am doing intense cardio. What I have found works the best for me is to have a protein shake about an hour and a half before my workout (maybe add a banana if it fits into my macros) But that is it. If I eat any closer to the time or eat any more, then I will…

I have an evil, lying one. I don't recommend that brand. LOL Seriously, a digital heath meter scale...does the job...but it is still a liar. And evil. :)

I actually was wondering what happened to you. I had not seen you in forever. LOL

I'm in. I have 35-40 pounds to go.....I am ready to get rid of it. LOL I am 5'4" and weigh 180.

Pink...for sure

Some may disagree (big shocker!!) but I drink my water room temperature. It is more palatable that way for me. Don't know why, it just tastes better to me that way, plus it is easier to drink! If I try to drink it ice cold, I don't drink as much.... I have a 100 ounce container I fill up and put on my desk every…

I always get the grilled chicken taco salad....I dump the shell, and use salsa instead of dressing.....

you should go to the doctor to rule out hypoglycemia or any other low blood sugar problems.....The suggestions are great for bringing your level back up, but it is nothing to play around with...your body could be producing too much insulin. Also could be a vitamin deficiency of some sort. Better to be safe than sorry.

If I don't keep stuff at work that is "quick fix" then I will often resort to running out....which I don't need the sodium! LOL I keep tuna pouches, pretzels....I bring some cut up veggies and always have hummus in the fridge....I bring some yogurt or fruit, hard boiled eggs, cheese sticks....I generally make a good meal…

Yeah, thankfully not on our licenses....that would be bad. LOL

Personally, I think going to the gym 2x a day is not necessary....switch off...you go at night and let him go in the morning...you can always do a video in the morning while he is at the gym. Compromise is so important...and this is really a no brainer :)

I think the opposite happens for me! I overindulged at a wedding last weekend...the next morning I weighed less.I figured I was dehydrated from all the alcohol. LOL It may also be what you drank?? But, regardless, that weight is not a fat gain overnight.... so rest assured, it will go away :)

I think the proper way to do this would to be to add a piece of pizza along with the wings and beer...

Oh, I could. Bring me a spoon. LOL (hence why it is banned!!) LOL

I have tried the Peanut Butter and Co. Dark Chocolate Dreams peanut butter....so if the Jif one is anything like it...YUM. It is now banned from my home because I like it WAY to much. :sad:

Best reply ever! :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :laugh: :laugh: :glasses:

I don't know if I should laugh or puke. LOL But, seriously, I have discussed it with those on my FL before...like how long do you keep the extra weight, etc....(I will keep the gross details to myself...LOL) but it is a fact of life, and we all have had to experience it in one form or another....I guess I just don't see…

done....looks like you will have a great range of responses!! Good questions :)

If you take away my coffee with cream and sweet n low...well, you just don't want to do that. Now, I have cut back to one large a day (occasionally on the weekends, 2) I factor it in to my macros....it's all good. I have to have one vice, geez :)

^ This....although, chances are slim since mine is anti-marriage right now. LOL

my two top...pizza and wings!!! Together, preferably! Oh, the days before being good. LOL
