I have been taking it with the raspberry ketones. I have been taking it for a week and a half now and I like it. It gives alertness, not jitterness. I am sensitve to caffeine and it does not have that nervous feeling effect on me. I do notice the appetite suppressant as I really struggle to eat my calories in a day... I'm…

Most definately going to try the pepperoni chips... great idea! I know what you mean about fruit.... I love fresh fruit. I like frozen grapes for a real special treat. Man oh man do those fruit calories add up. I have always thought of myself as a healthy eater.... who would have thought how much extra weight would be put…

I had a cheat day! ended up taking a string cheese in my purse and a bottle of water with one of those flavor packs so it really felt like I was cheating. I wasn't going to eat popcorn but after looking at the nutritional value... a small popcorn from cinemark is 190 cal. and that was better than depriving myself. I…

Thank You! I am taking the kids to see the new 3d nemo movie tomorrow and it is right in a target plaza!

I am going to research this as well. thanks! are you wanting pasta or will any carb... like an apple do? Personally I just don't think I could cut out fruit.

I'd love to give you reassurance but I am right there with you. I didn't even net 400 calories today but I am truthfully not hungry at all right now. I don't want to eat just to eat so I feel for you!

Count me in! I will do dreaded "before" pictures and measurements!

I did day one without any weights just so I could get started. I assure you it was still a challenge but it wasn't that bad. I told myself by putting it off just because I didn't have weights was really just an excuse to not get started. I did it. It felt great. I did buy weights the next day but only because I was in a…

baked oatmeal with bananas, blueberries, applesauce. one scoop a day for breakfast. I make two batches and put them in gladware bowls so we can take it with us and eat at work if we need to. And I always cook several chicken breasts on the weekend so it can be easliy transformed throughout the week.

I have some beautiful form fitting expensive shirts like that. they are safely folded in the drawer because I too have not made that transition. sometimes i try them on and look at myself. then I put on a pair of capris (gray or black) and one of the hubs baggy shirts. I need to get the nerve too. thanks for the motivation!

I'd like to tell you it gets better but I had a total hysterectomy in Feb. and the new demon in my life goes by the name of Menopause. New name, new set of problems. we all have our demons, right. ahhhh. lol

and that works for you?.... for now? wow! it would be R.I.P for you at my house lol. thankfully my surgeon spared my hubby with having to deal with that any longer :0

renamed mine: breakfast, morn snack, lunch, afternoon snack, dinner, eve snack. I could also see where I was failing and if there was a pattern. I also write a note in the bottom... like maybe I wasn't feeling well, etc

I do this exactly. 3 meals / 3 snack times. I also make sure that at each snack in between meals I log a drink. It is my reminder that if it's snack time it's also drink a water or herbal tea time. So far that has really worked for me.

Thank you for this! I got my JM videos in the mail yesterday and did day 1 of the 30d shred. I logged as 24 min circuit training (262) but because it was day 1, I was just getting used to what they were doing and I didn't have any hand weights so I just did the motions I actually cut it in half just to be safe. Once I get…

Seeing my first baby for the first time on ultrasound! I dropped my 5th grader off at school this morning and told him about it on the way. :))))))

Me too. I actually pulled my diary up today for the dietary manager at work today to look at. thanks for the info!

Me either!!! I buy sugar free jello cups and top it with fat free reddi whip and eat it nice and slow making sure I have just a little whip in each bite... yumm. I also like to take just small amount of peanut butter mixed with lite cool whip and make a dip for apples!!

Last year I jumped on board with all the fancy coffee drinks and was buying the gourmet creamers. I was drinking coffee at work just to make it through the day (it's free). I always felt tired and run down and wasn't sleeping well. I put 4 french vanilla flavored creamer into each double sized mug plus 3 packs of sugar…

Being a physician he obtained a presciption that the other would not have been able to get. That is not only cheating in the diet but also unethical medical practice. he should be ashamed!
