I tried ViSalis, (sp?) and it was expensive. I then went to using Whey Protein and followed the same plan as ViSalis and to me it works the same. IMO Whey Protein is better and cheaper.

I have a vacation coming up and I plan on gaining. Yep, going to an all inclusive resort. I will be drinking all day and eating pasta and hamburgers, chips and ice cream and cinnamon rolls. Midnight buffet too. I do plan on working out for an hour each day doing various of cardio and lifting. Also, at night hanging out in…

Awesome! I have kids and they occassionally want McDonald's. I like how they have the calories listed on the menu screen. My favorite item is a caramel sundae. When I saw how many calories I changed my mind and didn't order anything. Went home and had a greek yogurt.

Don't give up. I know it is depressing and very dissappointing but it happens. I work out just about everyday. 2 weeks ago I lost 3lbs and was like yeah baby. I have never lost that much in a week. I usually only lose 1lb. Well the following week I lost none. I worked so hard ate good to have the scale read the same was…

My husband had skin cancer on his face and recently had it removed by a plastic surgeon. The doctor has told him to massage the scar to even out the tissue. Maybe it is something new the doctors have discovered. I had surgery 10 years ago and they never said anything like that to me.

Homemade Butterscotch Sauce. Suppose to be used over ice cream. When I would make it, I would end up drinking it instead.

I bought a fanny pack at Walmart. I bought it in the fitness section. It is really slim and fits my phone, keys and ipod nicely. Barely noticable when I have it around my waist and my shirt over it.

I found this site and it explains how much protein, carbs and fat one should have. http://www.freedieting.com/tools/nutrient_calculator.htm

Blue Diamond All Natural Almond Thins (crackers) They come in different flavors. My favorite is the Cheese flavor.

Wow, you look so much younger!

You might actually find it too sweet. Often if I eat clean no sugar for a good amount of time and when I indulge in something sweet, I find it too sweet. If I end up eating the whole thing sometimes I feel sick. Not sick that I ate it but really sick to my stomach because it was too sweet.

I have a bad sweet tooth too. I am trying my best to cut out all the sugary items that pop in my head that I want to eat. I found pineapple greek yogurt helps. It does have some sugar because of the pineapple. I will share a desert with my husband and really only have a few bites. Scooping out ice cream for the kids I will…

I did it three years ago. I lost 40 lbs in 9 months. It works. It takes you from eating their food to learning how to eat food from the grocery store the healthy way. Then one day I ate a Christmas cookie and another and well I got addicted to sugar again and started a downward fall of not eating healthy and not exercising…

Me too. Plus I like to swim and it never stayed on. Switched Necon 1/35

Me too

I have a mini goal of losing 20 lbs by November. Then I will get my hair colored and highlighted. As of right now my hair needs done desparately as I am going grey. If I don't lose 20 I hope to be close and I still will get my hair done.

Don't get upset if your pants are tight after flying. When I fly my body swells. It goes away after a day or so. You are on a long flight. Drink lots of water.

All the above, and our community gym I go to is small. Not enough equipment for the size of the community. When I get there all ready to workout and it is crowded and all the (2) elliptical machines are taken. All the treadmills are filled. When I get there and the only good working elliptical machine is taken. When it is…

I have a couple of egg whites

Yes, I do all the time. Is there someone there that is a manager or staff, you can ask them. There is also an app called JEFIT has routines and a little guy figure showing what to do. I bought a book called "28 Day Body Shape Makeover". It shows things for machines and home. Also stretches and a game plan. I don't follow…

I don't not if it is a small bite, a taste. I figure I put in extra exercise calories each day.

Now that I have used it all up, I have switched to whey protein isolate. Going to follow the same program and see how it works. The cost is better for sure.

I would love to use this coconut oil, doctor recommended it. But..... It is so expensive, I haven't bought any.
