  • My goals for May: (I just started keto on May 1) 1. I have never lasted 30 legit days on a diet - ever. This is my main goal 2. cardio dance class 3 x per week 3. walk/hike 3 days per week
  • I'd love to add some of you guys as friends - Day 4 on Keto and so far I love it. I've been primal on and off for years. It takes some meal prep time for me (total foodie) but this is definitely something I can stick to. It's challenging for me because I teach cooking and am a personal chef. Most of my clients and ALL of…
  • My absolute favorite smoothie recipe - tastes like dessert. Especially great after a workout - full of protein! 1 banana (small) 1-2 TBL almond or peanut butter 1 scoop chocolate whey protein powder 1-2 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • Same here. Need to be more accountable. Feel free to add me :)
  • How do I deal with alcohol? Drink it, enjoy it, log it - and don't feel too bad about it. If you do, go to the gym. If you're still tipsy the next morning - go to Zumba or Cardio Funk and pretend you are at a club. People may stare - but who cares! Just yell Woo-hoo - do the whole rodeo thing with your arms and show them…
  • Sorry to hear that. I know how that can be. Just the other day after losing 5 pounds and feeling very proud - my mom said to me, "I think that my punishment in the afterlife is going to be to come back and live as a fat person so I will finally understand how you feel". I think she meant it as some sort of backhanded…
  • Bernadette606 hit the nail on the head - although I don't know what the tutoring stuff was about - LOL. But at one time I was divorced with 3 kids living with my mom. She is super skinny, always has been. My dad, my brothers and I are muscular and not rail thin - she doesn't understand and was constantlly on my case about…
  • I have lost a lot of weight doing yoga. But it depends on the type of yoga you practice. If you stick with Hatha or some of the more "meditative" forms of yoga - then you will have great flexibility benefits, but probably not lose any weight. When I consistently practice Ashtanga, Vinyasa or other forms of Flow yoga - I…
  • This sounds interesting!! I will look into it for sure!
  • Eating well under my calorie goal and working out all the time - and the scale won't budge. :( But I think I am losing inches and that bloaty feeling all the time. Good luck guys!
  • Just discovered the Gallette....omg. so yummy - it tastes like a sweet pancake!
  • Does ithe Poppyseed have sugar in it? I am having trouble finding a good dressing that is Fat Free and Sugar Free
  • I lost 7 pounds fast in the Attack Phase...Now on cruise phase - eating well under my calorie goal and working out all the time - but the scale is not budging. I have been adding some red wine occasionally (which isn't allowed on Cruise Phase)...wondering if that's the problem. You all are welcome to friend me as well!! I…
  • Do you bake or cook it on the stove. I have xylitol - will that work? I think it's like Stevia.
  • Hour and a half of power yoga - it kicked my butt. I am still struggling to eat enough though. I am on the Dukan Diet - and I don't think I am eating enough. Hard to eat a lot of protein though.
  • I think I will post this for everyone - I love this poem. We are all human and we all do this. There’s A Hole In My Sidewalk Chapter One I walk down the street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I fall in. I am lost… I am helpless. It isn’t my fault. It takes forever to find a way out. Chapter Two I walk down the same…
  • Most beers from Dogfish Head Guinness Belgian wheats Tripels beer is good!
  • I made a yummy salad dressing last night - I can finally eat veggies! Then realized I couldnt have oil or sugar. It is good on meat and veggies. I made a big tub last night for my next veggie day. Sorry - I don't use measurements - just taste. Faje Plain Non Fat Greek Yogurt Trader Joes Dijon Mustard White Balsamic Vinegar…
  • I am experiencing the same thing! I am under my calorie goal every day - but I don't want to eat just to eat! Then if I work out - I am supposed to eat even more. It's what got me overweight in the first place. But I am just not hungry! :) and there is only so much meat I can eat. What do you guys do to fill up? Is there a…
  • I was wondering if this ever got going - just checked the thread...if it's not too late. My name is Heather - 42...3 kids. I started the Dukan Diet on Sunday and dropped about 7 pounds. I am pretty sure it's all water weight...but I am not starting the cruise phase where I will stay until I reach my goal weight. Which…
  • Punky Brewster Webster Different Strokes Facts of Life Alf CHiPs Love Boat Fantasy Island Mork and Mindy Land of the Lost I think I watched too much TV as a kid... Xanadu Breakfast Club 16 Candles St. Elmo's Fire
  • So, what does that mean? I have the same problem...and I don't want to eat just to eat - that's what got me to this place to begin with. What is your suggestion?
  • What do you do when you find someone you think you are a match with? Age: 42 Height: 5'5" SW: 172 CW: 168 GW: 148 I would like to tone my arms and firm up my midsection - belly to thighs!
  • Great thread...you all have motivated me to start lifting. I have been doing cardio 5-6 times per week for the past 8 weeks and I gained weight...recently started the Dukan Diet and dropped 5...but that's severely limiting my diet, only eating protein and working out an hour a day. I have always wanted to learn how to lift…
  • I'm in....(again). I think there is another competition going on as well. SW: 168 GW: 148
  • You should look into the Dukan Diet...it seems more doable long term than Atkins...just started on Sunday and I lost 5 pounds already...2nd phase = veggies. Can't wait. :) Add me - we can share ideas. I have been on the look out for great protein recipes....I struggle with getting bored of grilled chicken and egg whites.
  • Count me in...I just started the Dukan Diet and dropped 5 pounds...I know it's probably only water weight...but damn it feels good! Super motivated to lose 20 and then I can get off the diet!! I start the Cruise phase tomorrow....can't weight to eat me some veggies. :)
