  • OK, here's what I do. I go for organic when I can, brown cow and greek yogurts are thicker and more satisfying and I am a convert for plain yogurt. It's GROSS by itself so here's what I do: add a little alcohol free vanilla extract; add Truvia (it's Stevia, but without the bitter aftertaste and it's NOT artificial, nor is…

  • I eat light carbs before and protein after. I try to stay away from bars if I can. I eat fruit and something like oatmeal or a yogurt before and then protein and veggies for a bigger meal after. I'm hungrier after I exercise and I find my metabolism fires better then too.

  • What a fantastic post to stumble across on my first night at this site. This past year I lost over 55 pounds. I went from a size 22 to a size 10. It has been an amazing journey for me (if I can figure out how to put pics up, I'll do it). I am finally comfortable in my own skin after 16+ years of being obese. The first time…
