I turn mine into a lasagna!! I cook the spaghetti squash until its still a little crunchy (we like it like that). Then I scrape it all out and set it aside. I make a homemade marinara sauce with ground turkey and get pre shredded kraft italiano cheese. I layer the 3 just like you would when making a lasagna (with the…

One black coffee, a small organic banana and a yogurt. At 10 I usually have a tea and 1 cup of fruit (grapes or cantelope or watermelon)

In it for the love of cooking.......and eating!!

A friend of mine who is an Isagenix coach gave me a few tips. Add a few drops of orange essential oil to the chocolate shake to make it taste almost like a terry's chocolate orange. Or add to vanilla shake tomake it taste like a creamsicle. Make pepermint tea and let it cool in the fridge. Use that instead of water when…

We have never been traditional wehn it comes to Christmas dinner. So tomorrow night we are having jumbo sea scallops, mushrooms stuffed with garlic and escargot, steak, asparagus, ceaser salad and some wine. Not sure what dessert is just yet :)

Our stats and goals are relatively the same. I have been working on lifting heavy for a little while now, but I still have a LONG way to go. Add me as a friend and we can compare workouts and motivation :)

^^ THIS^^ for the most part the entire industry is airbrushed, touched up, maked up and lit up in certain ways to make them seem flawless. Take a minute and watch this video. This is a real eye opener!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKlVyUJw3TM

I completely understand!! I may only have one child (an almost 3 year old boy), but I work full time, my husband is a firefighter (shift work, and not 24 hour shifts), we own a side business, I'm busy studying for my C.E.T. and not to mention we play sports as well (each play on a hockey & baseball team, I play soccer and…

Baked Spaghetti squash with homemade pork meatballs and a marinara sauce with added red & green bell peppers, onion & garlic. And don't forget the wine!!

You ladies are the bomb!! Talk about inspiration!! I try to do heavy weights, and then I don't get results as fast as I would like to see and I end up getting back into my cardio routine again. So please enlighten me....... What program are you using to have such great success?? I have about 30 lbs I would like to lose. So…

For all you juicers, I have a few questions. After I gave birth to my son (2 1/2 years ago) I was juicing in the morning and having 2 solid meals. I felt great and it helped to get some of that baby weight off!! I would like to start juicing again, but I'm not sure if I want to just juice. Can you juice all day and have a…

Thanks for the feedback yesterday ladies!! I got back into it today after a week and a half off, and I was able to increase ALL of my weights!! So pumped right now!!

Hey Ladies. I pulled my groin playing baseball last Sunday (I didn't warm up enough), so I rested it until I knew it was good again. I've managed to play hockey, soccer and another ball game since Thursday, so I'd say I'm good to start lifting again. My question is, where do I go from here?? I was on workout B4 of Stage 1.…

Thanks :smile:

Pulled my groin yesterday playing baseball. I now know why it is so important to properly warm up and stretch and not just fast track it and socialize!! grrrr I am so angry at myself. I am missing todays lift and tonights soccer game. But I am being careful and resting it so I don't injure myself further. I will never make…

Hoping for some advice :) I'm new to the program I have some questions for the veteran's out there. Since reading all the posts about lifting and seeing amazing results, I decided to stop my cardio…

Hey Ladies! I just started with the program yesterday. I'm super excited to become a lean, mean lifting machine!!!!!
