If the meal has a lot of carbs than yes, if the meal has higher protein than no. I keep apples on hand for when this happens. If I'm hungry enough to eat an apple than I assume I'm actually hungry, I eat the apple and am good. If I'm "hungry" but don't want the apple than I assume I'm either thirsty or my body has gone…

I use a regular comp book and pen. I write it all down after I prep & pack.

El Fresco chicken sausage about 1.5 sausages is equal to 1 red with peppers and onions 1 green and a flat out wrap 1 yellow.

I've done 1 round of 21 day fix and lost 10 pounds doing so and have kept it off. I'm gearing to do start a second round Monday. I would highly recommend it.

These are all really great ideas! Thank you! IronBelote I do mix crushed fruit with my cottage cheese sometimes, usually blueberries but I'll have to try pineapple. I went out and bought some beef jerky, sodium is a bit high but its a nice change.

When someone sits on a machine chatting when its obvious you are waiting to use it. Also when you decline someones offering of food because its not in your nutritional plan and they say "oh come on its only one [whatever the item is], what harm is just one going to do?" :|

Firstly I make my own taco seasoning. Its pretty simple: 1 tablespoon chili powder ½ teaspoon garlic powder ¼ teaspoon onion powder ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes ½ teaspoon dried oregano ½ teaspoon paprika 1½ teaspoons ground cumin 1 teaspoon sea salt 1 teaspoon black pepper I use chicken or ground turkey, mix in…

Salmon yuck

Well when I quit I spent 3 weeks with a disgusting chest cold I think my body generated to hack all the poison from my lungs. I had a steady cough/weez for about 4 weeks with matching phlegm. I know its gross. So if this is what you are going through I would consider giving yourself a break until it subsides. I was able to…

2 egg whites & 1 whole egg scrambled with ham and cheese. sometimes I wrap it up in a st josephs whole wheat and oat with flax wrap. Usually holds me and if not I eat some almonds or cottage cheese or a piece of fruit

I wouldn't have anything to say about this dress code if they hadn't said " anything that causes a distraction to the learning and teaching process". This implies that they are basically blaming the girls for the male students AND faculty not being able to properly function because they are too busy eye banging the girls.…

"fall down seven times stand up eight"

I was never a runner. I could do it, that wasn't the issue, I was just more content in the gym. But a good friend of mine runs a 7 mile road race in August every year and asked if I would accompany her in training and I started to like it but like you said, lost interest. The remedy for me was to sign up for a fun race. We…

Looking at your diary, you are eating a ton of sugar and your sodium is so high. IMHO if you adjust those you should begin to see progress. Also are you measuring everything? I just bought myself a food scale a couple weeks ago and it was crazy how much I was over/underestimating.

Good for you!!

I did the GM cleanse about a year and a half ago. its 7 days. It ranges with days you can only eat fruits and days you can only have veggies. there is a milk and banana day, a beef and tomato day. I lost 6 pounds but gained it back later on. honestly it wasn't worth 7 days of giving up legit meals.

Today will be day 8 of level 1. I'm already seeing a difference in definition.

What you eat in private you wear in public ---that's my mantra

Massachusetts: 1. You know what a Rotary is and more importantly how to use one 2. You're never too far away from a dunkin 3. No one parks their car in the harvard yard - stop asking 4. It's called a "packy" 5. Please tell me how you loved "The Perfect Storm" and "Grown ups" 6. Clam Plate 7. Its a Frappe 8. Yesterday could…

salt & pepper the raw chicken In a pan saute some onion and chopped garlic Add the chicken along with about a cup of halved grape or cherry tomatoes, chopped zucchini/summer squash and mushrooms when the chicken is almost done squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the pan. Serve with brown rice

140 was my original goal but about 2 weeks ago I decided to go another 5. Once I get there I will see where I want to start maintaining.

Progress pic, I have about 15lbs to go. I'm 5'2" on the cusp of 5'3" my heaviest was about 164 and now I'm approx 148

IMHO it is a life changing experience. We get so used to the way we look and feel with the extra weight that we have accepted it as our image and for that to change its like saying goodbye to someone you've gotten close with, like they are going away forever. You look at that before image and its hard to differentiate that…

Here is my progress. I'm not done yet, I have about 15 more pounds to go. Starting the 30 day shred tonight to give me a boost. Also purchased a food scale over the weekend.

I plan on starting today is it too late to join the group?

Thin N Trim is lower sodium than most.

All of the above. Also could be constipation bloating you. Sometimes upping protein can back you up, make sure you get some fiber in you where you can.

what program did you use to get started? I was looking into "New rules of weight lifting for women" but wasn't totally hooked.
