I only drink milk in my coffee, but I have moved to the point I really enjoy the taste of almond milk. But, I make my own and think it is the most delicious. My stomach has issues with milk sometimes. Health difference I won't claim to know. -Cup of almonds* -1/2 gallon of water -1/2 tsp of cinimmon -1 to 2 tsp of vanilla…

Again I take sleeping pills but, I have tried sleeping without them, on occasion it has worked. One thing that I used to think was way out there, actually helps me take naps without any pills. Calm.com has mediations 2, 5, 10... 30 with soft music and nice images (although you are suppose do have your eyes closed. My mind…

Drink water between beers. And be careful not to shovel. When you are full stop. Things like Onion Dip... are my downfall. You can do it man.

I am going to join this group fi I can, I think I joined for January but I was confused by all the different threads. I think I got it now. I also confused about people not being able to access database from an iphone or ipad. I do it everyday at work.

#7 wow, This feels great, and it is this challenge that is driving me. Thanks to all for the challenge and most of all for the support.

Nutella is rare for me, but if you trying to avoid it here, don't ever try it in Europe. It is much better. Theirs is less sweet, more Hazelnutty, and less salty. So I guess it actually it makes easier not to eat it here. I guess the marketing department did the "American Palete" thing.

Seems I came to the party. Day 8 and feeling Great! Down 12 pounds, blood sugar hugely down. Always critics, but who listens to critics. This is workig for me. Glad to see a posse of postive minded people on this subject.

I also don't reccomend sleeping pills, I am currently addicted, and I would not suggest. I am going to try to wean myself off after my weight loss. I also use a Melatonin product that I like, it works sometimes. You need to see a Doctor and have the Sleep Apnea eliminated as a problem. If its just general breating. Have…

You have plenty of time, don't worry. You have to love yourself to get in a healthy realtionship of mutal love and respect. Your on the road to happiness, be proud, and never settle.

Been juicing daily, really enjoying it.

Maybe it would help if you calculated exactly how much you spend on those drinks, then calculate for a month, or even better a year. And put that money aside for new clothes or new electronic toy that you have wanted. When I look at how much I spend on Starbucks (Being a 100 yard from work), I cringe. I am currently made…

I am not arguing anything, I am experimenting. I watched a movie, (The first) I liked it. I feel great. Which person did I attack? I made a general statement of which, in my opinion is true. I didn't make it about anyone in particular, but from my time on here. Re: the Juice Cleanse. I read about it, I read about juice…

Stay tuned. Hey as I said before. This is for me, not you, not anyone else. It may fail. I am loving it right now. Hopefully the hole won't need to be as big.

The earth was flat to many, cigarettes were healthy, and there is no such thing as global warming.

Looking back on my post, I can see it could be constrewed as inflamatory if misinterpreted. I should not have made such a statement, it wasn't a blanket statement, but anyways. I guess it was just a reaction to the replies to the OP post.

I didn't comment on anyone's weight loss did I.

Call names, whatever. I am not on here to argue.

Sorry, I wass not speaking to people with piles of posts, I hope to have piles of posts, I was referring to people with piles of posts and nothing to show for it. In my experience, there are some people here, that believe that their way, is the only way, they believe that they are the experts and put down anything that…

I track using MFP, and really appreciate the tool. Maybe I wasn't clear, I am only doing a 15 day Reboot 5-5-5. 5 day solid plant foods juice/smoothies, 5 day juice, and 5 day solid plant foods and juice/smoothies. This is not a life decision, I am doing a cleanse, and I would love to say weight loss is the only side…

Believe what you want. I am not here to argue, I am here for a reason. For mutual support. Not a bunch of criticism nonsense from non-experts. Challenge? I am ready. If you have something positive to say, I happily respond. Why troll threads that you have no interest? Look at the innocent's OP's question, look at the…

Did you read the article? I am sure on any regimen the same thing would have happen.

I think thats fair. Fine, but I think the rub is the number of critics with high post counts that high and weight loss is zilch. No, the aren't resetting their tickers. I was just providing support for the initail poster who was getting every Dr. FA's opinion on what works and what doesn't. Different things work for…

I agree, I have the same axiom, I don't listen to people who have piles of posts (and opinions), MFP is filled with them, and very little weight loss. I never said MFP never worked, I think this is not all about weight loss. I use MFP, it is wonderful website. Hey better yet, friend me. Lets make it a healthy…

I thought the movie was awesome. The movie fired me up. I am on day 4 (of 15), I have lost 9 pounds and feel great. Please look on my diary, and look at my loss (I think you can see it). I feel great on day four day 2 was my hardest. Once you have experienced a "Cleanse", you will believe in the Cleanse". Now look at the…

I am not unsympathetic to the stories coming from the Ranch. Three cheers to Jillian who had the moral decency to step away from a bad situation. (She was always my favorite). How different is this from Judy Garland, Gary Coleman or the thousands of other stars that were physically, sexually or mentally abused by the…

i finely chop dates, while still a sugar, totally unprocessed. I don't need it sweet, just a little very lightly sweet. And Toasted almond slices and Flax seeds. I don't add dairy unless it happens to come out dry and then I will add some homemade almond milk. Try it.

1) I tracked everything yes 2) I was under my calorie limit yes 3) I was active for 20 minutes yes
