  • To each their own. I like having a plan & a goal. Structure works better for me. And I like learning and trying new things. The whole point of this book is the ease & flexibility. No equipment, so special "brand" foods. Real life stuff. And eating at work? - will probably help tons because I usually get home starving and…
  • Haha, you know that, was the 1st thing I looked for, I've always been all about the NUMBERS. But NO - and it makes sense. He gives you portion sizes of healthy carbs, you just eat that. No worrying & obsessing over numbers, other than sticking to the calorie range. But just following the portion sizes and what foods to eat…
  • Awesome awesome job! Your back looks incredible....strong sexy back is a long ways away goal for me!
  • Those are most certainly NOT grandma arms - way to go!!!!
  • I'm 6 weeks into a fitness challenge working with a personal trainer - so no expert here. But TOTALLY seeing results. I'm down about 10lbs and I can do TWO real pushups! Laugh all you want, but that is seriously huge for me! :) He has fine tuned how I look at my diet, gives a breakdown of what types of foods to eat when,…
  • I'm new to gym scene, but I'm usually there about 30-45min. Sometimes I do 30min cardio, 15min weights, but honestly, I find that I get a much better workout doing 30min of intervals on the treadmill or eliptical. My trainer has given me some great tabata workouts I can do at home for the days I can't get to the gym, and…
  • I have no professional input,but the trainer I'm working with not only gave us suggested eating times, but what KIND of foods (starch, protein, etc) at specific times of the day. THAT is really making me feel like I have more energy throughout the day. If I don't have a good chunk of protein at breakfast, and a little bit…
  • Glad you posted this. About 8yrs ago, I lost 60lbs and was not exercising. My stomach was scary. I've been moderately overweight most of my life, 2 kids, etc. :( I've slowly gained it back, and now am determined to lose it for good, but am doing cardio & strength training on a regular basis. I'm still scared I'm going to…
  • 1. Paying to join a 3month fitness challenge at my gym (only 3 wks in and I can tell you it will be the BEST investment I've ever made) 2.. xylitol - can't give up my one cup of sweet coffee in the morning! 3. good earbuds and downloading more fun workout music on my iphone!
  • So glad I stumbled on this post and I am not the only one bothered by the RED I always see in my sugar category. It's almost all fruit & low fat dairy, I know I'm eating well. Still bugs me though LOL Will try to stop obsessing. ;)
