Start looking for a "light" menu when going out to eat. More restaurants are offering this. If not, choose a grilled chicken salad. Go light on the dressing. Sometimes I get a regular meal, eat half and take the rest home. The sodium in restaurant food is over the top! Beware!!! It can cause you to hold water. Otherwise, I…

Eat Raisin Bran for breakfast daily. Also, a tsp. of Castor Oil will resolve the issue.

I can so relate - I have been in the same situation. For the past month, I have eaten before. Very little weight loss, but feel stronger. I am trying to lose weight and get stronger. So, this month I will have coffee and water only before my morning workout. I hope this switch, along with upping my protein, will yield the…

54 and understand - working at it again too. Just making it a part of my lifestyle, rather than what I do to lose weight. Eating right and exercising daily is just what I do now. The best to you!

Well done! Thank you for inspiring us!

You have a plan for good health ahead of you - bless your heart . So very sorry for your loss honey. Good luck with your new goals. Love kickboxing!

Hi, Just checking in - Completed Week 1 of Burn. Exercising in the mornings, which is new to me. Still working on eating habits. Better, but not awesome - shooting for awesome! Have a great week all! Sharon

:flowerforyou: soooooo inspirational! Thanks for sharing your story. I know this will give others hope. Bless you, and your buddy,

Chalean Extreme! I started with Slim n 6. I find more results and a higher calorie burn with the weights on the CLX program. You should try it - it is from beach body.com. Time just flies when doing the videos. :)

<Lucy! She was a Foster animal....her mom got sick and couldn't care for her. We had just lost Daisy, another Bassett. We were heart-broken - Lucy rescued us! <3

So inspiring! Thanks for sharing and congrats!

Would it work of you did not go low carb on those two days? You could just limit your cals on those two days. Just an idea.

Carol: I am proud of you for stopping after one piece of cake! For some, it would not have stopped at one! I am new to this forum so forgive me as I get to know all of you. We had a nice day, though chilly in IL. Ran errands, cooked dinner and am settled in to watch some great commercials! I had 1 piece of pizza for my…

Sharon in chilly IL!

We are a military family, and my son was based in Germany for a while. We visited and really enjoyed ourselves. The castle and cathedrals are amazing. Taking rails and buses are the way to tour. Having an English speaking tour guide will be a great benefit. Language can pose challenges. You will love it!

Hello ladies! I am inspired by you. :flowerforyou: May I join you? My Feb. goals: 1. Log all food that passes these lips! 2. Exercise 3 X week (seriously!) minimum 4. Avoid stress eating!!! 5. Less coffee, more water!

I love the program. Completed it once, and am starting again, after a hiatus. I am 54 years old and find this program is doable for me, with minor modifications. I am just eating healthy and tracking on MFP. I could use some CLX buddies - feel free to add me!

I totally agree with every word of this! We were outside during the day, riding bikes, playing hopscotch, swimming. Meals were served three times a day. In between, there was a bowl of fruit on the counter. Clean and simple living.....minus technology! I ad a library card to keep me busy in my spare time! Good memories. :)
