That is very helpful. I meant to mention that I do not have a gym membership and need home work outs. Maybe in the future if I ever get a membership again then I will look into it. And I did wonder about using my IPAD verses buying hardcover. I have heard good things about Rocktv.com but I need a new laptop, we have been…

Its never been my favorite in the past. I don't think its as hard as it should be and I think the moves/flow bores me or doesn't work....something. So now I do level 1 for 10 days, level 2 for 12 and going to make it my goal to stick with level 3 for 8 days. I usually end up moving on to Ripped in 30.

Thanks, I will take a look!

Stopping in to say hi! Come back often, whenever you need it. This group is really helpful!

Laughing at "Garden of eatin' " Love it!

A big thank you to you! It really helps that you are so willing to be so helpful and hold everyones hands through this! I think because of this is why its easier to not give up and make it easier to believe that yes, it will work out!

This is helpful to hear, too! Now I won't have the Its only me! syndrome. :wink:

Oh good! I am almost 2 weeks in and was getting worried today because a pair of loose shorts were a little tighter. I keep telling myself to give it more time but I still have that old voice in me telling me to cut back some!

Thank you, I needed this reassurance! I have been eating more for almost two weeks now. I put on a pair of shorts today that a few weeks ago were loose and now are tighter. Ugh. Makes me think I am doing something wrong. I think I will be in the group that it will take a little longer to get my body used to the eating…

I recently made this without the egg and ice and used a frozen banana and loved it! Its from Fast Paleo website. I am not Paleo but a huge collector of recipes and love trying new things Pumpkin Spice Smoothie 1/3 can of Pumppkin 1 cup almond milk (vanilla, unsweetened) 1-2 tsp cinnamon 1 raw cage free egg 1.5 scoops…

I will send a request!

Some people are comfortable talking about it, some not. This is a public free site. If you see TOM in the subject line, don't click on it.

This is from the Chocolatecoveredkatie blog that I use several times a day! I like using garbanzos but my kids prefer white cannellini bean texture. Its more smooth. I only needed to use 1/2 cup coconut palm sugar and it was still sweet. Brownie Batter Dip Inspired by the famous Cookie Dough Dip. 1 can garbanzo beans,…

I hear you on the doctor thing! Especially since most the docs I have/had either are overweight or slightly overweight but you can tell they never get any exercise. I wonder where this 1200 number even came from especially since most nutrition labels are based off a 2,000 cal diet. *insert eye roll smiley here*

Hmmm, well theres nothing wrong with a little more *kitten* as long as its in the right place:tongue: Keep going. I read one of those stickys and it was like she was talking to me. I believe it was Kiki who wrote it but she was saying how it could take weeks or months depending on how you treated your body before. I am…

Feel free to look through my diary. I am still new to the eat more, its been less than two weeks so I am still working on it. I have been letting myself have things I haven't had and eating oatmeal more. I have even eaten out more then I have in 3 months! But I am down half an inch around my waist and I have eaten…

I went a year with only putting almond milk in it. It didn't help me lose any weight. I can drink it that way and its ok.....but that whole time every morning I would want it to be a tad sweeter. Now I use a little coconut palm sugar. Not enough to make it super sweet but enough to where its not bitter and a tablespoon of…

Hey sweatpants, I just noticed you aren't too far from me! I think you should add the Bix7 to your list;)

Ok, thanks! I do love being busy, I don't even know how not to be. I am so used to it so it just seems so.....normal. I question it because I know the shred isn't very long, but I do use 5-10lb weights and on my walks/runs my almost 3 year old always insists on coming. She is teeny but she gets heavy quick pushing her up…

There are times where I have lost scale weight but look the same and wear the same size. There have been times when the scale didn't budge but I dropped sizes in clothes. I have gone back to not using a scale. Well, I will when I can see I have lost just to see where I am. Even though I know I fluctuate and I know the…

I absolutely love Twopeasandtheirpod.com's chickpea & avocado sandwich and their edamame and avocado sandwich. SUper healthy and so filling! I don't like chickpeas unless its hummus or disguised in a baked good or whatnot. I rinsed the beans really well and processed them with garlic and the other ingredients and…

Its hard to judge since the before pics are a little dark, but I definitely can see a difference in the side view, and on the front view you look more trim. Your belly looks like theres also more definition. I like throwing the shred into my routine every so often in the mornings, its a great wake me up video but I don't…

I am just surprised your cut wouldn't be higher. I know I weigh more and I am a tad taller, but at 165 and 5'8 my cut is 2345. I walk/run 6 days a week (just getting back into running) then do a strength training video for 20-30 min 7 days a week. The classes you teach are burning far more calories than my workouts. 2345…

Some of our favorites yet super easy: all bake at 350: *Smear on some red curry paste *pour some salsa on top and sprinkle some cheese *Smear on some pesto, roll chicken around some mozzarella, I have even used half a stick of string cheese. I always pound my chicken thin

I am right there with you! I just squeezed into a pair of jeans that were loose over a week ago. I wanted to cry! I keep telling myself I didn't eat 3500 cals and not work out but its still pretty hard!!

I agree Lucia! Really, the scale weight isn't my goal. Its more of a size/look I want. I am judging my "goal weight" on where I was at my happiest (with my body) and to use for the calculators, but really if the scale never says that number but I fit back in those clothes and look fit, then that will be my happiest, body…

Thanks again. It just seems like a too good to be true type of thing. What? I can eat, feel satisfied, actually not turn down another lunch/dinner/night out with friends and still lose weight!? I can take my daughters out for ice cream and have some with them? Normally i just sit there and watch them eat, planning on…

Honestly, I don't imagine 10 years from now, any of todays 3 yr olds will be looking at old copies of Time and recognizing their classmate. Maybe if this kid grows up to be a Presidential candidate or celebrity somebody might dig this up but in 30-40 years will anyone really care?

This is what you people find disgusting?? Seriously people have nothing else to B**** about except whether they have the right to tell a Mother when she has to stop breastfeeding? You don't want to breastfeed a 3 yr old? Fine don't do it. I worry about things like parents who don't feed their children and abuse them. I am…

Thanks for the encouragement! I use 5 and 10lb weights. There are just a few moves I can only use the 10lb weights for the first round. I have always had weak shoulders. After the shred I will do Ripped in 30, then probably onto kettlebells. This is my normal routine. I have tried P90x but I didn't really see a huge…
