Thanks for the thoughts and information! I agree that planks are a great workout for your core and I am feeling it today!!

How do you grind them up? I like using them but the seeds themselves are annoying in my smoothies and nutra-blasts? I have a milling blade that works on my Nutri-bullet I wonder if that would work.

I was pointed to the 100daysofrealfood.com I started reading that blog and was hooked. She has alot of information that answered many of my questions. Easy to follow "how to" instructions on many topics. I think you are moving in the right direction. someone had tols me it was better to move toward something instead of…

I just joined also and was pointed in the direction of 100daysofrealfood.com WOW! I am totally moving in that direction. There are great instructions, per se, on how to make the switch, recipes and lots of information. We are making the switch and we feel so much better already. Not eating what you can't pronounce is the…

I ls 2.3lbs in a week! Super excited. I am not being overly optimistic thinking that I will lose this much every week \but it was nice to see the scale move down for a change. Last week my goal was to get in all of my water everyday and not buy anything that said fat free or light or the like on it. I met that goal! This…

I have been using my nutribullet since Sept. 2nd and making a blast for breakfast each morning. They are keeping me very satisfied and I feel wonderful. Making other changes in the diet by going to clean eating and whole foods. I thought it would be hard, so far the process I am following has made it very easy. I thought…

I have had them one time and the were on a fruit tray sliced like a star. I can't remember if they were peeled or if you tore the skin open to eat them. they were delicious though.

I made my own hummus today in my nutribullet............. it is delicious and has 20 less calories and 2 grams less fat than a name brand one. It is delicious ~ not a sacrifice! Plus I am so proud to have made it myself! Wow never thought I would say that.......... what is happening to me? LOL

I will definitely look into it thanks!!

no only enjoyed it............ my husband says I am addicted to it! LOL what a great hing to be addicted to!

I think you have hit the nail on the head. I have been reading the 100 days off read food website and it is really good. Moving towards is a great idea. I like to take what I can live with and move forward!! I will check out the rest of your suggestions too. Thanks! Oh and thanks for the compliment on the photo!

Tak you both I will look into those............ was it a difficult change for you or did you move toward it easily?? Bottom line did you lose wight when you did it. I have 30 pounds to lose and nothing I do seems to get it off. So discouraged. But still willing to keep plugging along!

If it was easy everyone could do it..................... I love bread............ oh I love bread and carbie yumminess. I try not to keep it in the house!! I need to lose 30 pounds also, I also have many tricks and tips and have read lots of things, but I too, don't always do them. I am 49 and need to do this. I have been…

Love the Aldi's story........... my Aldi's is very good! I buy most of my produce there for my salads and juicing. They carry most of the basics for much less than Publix. That way I can go to Publix and just buy some things and not mind paying so much for them. Aldi's had peaches for 0.29lb where as Publix was $1.99lb!…

It is quite an undertaking with just my hisband and I! I am glad to have found this board since we are just beginning on our journey to clean eating!! I appreciate the website information I will definitey check them out! Good Luck!

My husband and I are beginning the clean eating lifestyle too! Ok well I am making him do it, but he is not opposed to it! We are making some changes and cleaning out the cupboards. I would love some ideas and support!! Add me if you would like! This is something that I feel is important and he is 55 and I am 49 and we…

Thanksthis was very helpful to me too. We have started using a nutri bullet this week for breakfasts, the recipes call for different types of fruits and I usually stay away from fruit do to the sugar. But since the weight is not coming off by following that......... I am ready to try anything! I usually have a dficit in…

I am new to juicing too and was looking for a group to join! I am hoping this is still active. I have a nutri bullet and been using it for 2 days now. We are juicing once a day. So far we are liking it!!

That sounds good!! I know you can do alot with juicing, I will definitely have to try that!!

think the "natural" one was $7 more............ I am extremely wary of things labeled natural I assume it is a gimmick

I will watch the videos tonight. I know it is super important to have the right form to avoid injury! Thanks for posting some video to watch so we don't hurt ourselves!!

I have completed the arm challenge for 2 days in a row! My husband is doing them with me!! Great calendar!

Just coming off of a two week vacation in Hawaii! We had a great time but are having a hard time adjusting back to the right time zone. Food and exercise is coming back into play and I am scheduling in the gym.......... I like the everyday challenge idea!! I did the arm challenge exercises today!

I like the thought of a daily challenge and this calendar seems to offer what I am needing :) I will be starting today on day 7 and will do as many as I can! Hopefully by the end of the month I will be doing them with ease!

What is an incline press? Thanks for the info........... I have this too and it seems to be hard to tone!! Thanks :wink:

I only track calories........... I don't even know what macros are! I actually opened you post to see what they were. :) I think if what you are doing is working keep on doing it!

I use Pro Perfomance whey protien from GNC~ it was recommended to me by someone who is a personal trainer. If this one isn't good could you recommend one or let me know what you should look for in a protien powder please?

I like this idea!! I don't eat much sugar and shy away from fruit since it contains so much sugar, but I miss it! Maybe on days when I eat fruit I will try this.............

Good Morning! It is beautiful here in Florida.............. Looking forward to a great day playing volleyball at a BBQ later should be fun!! Enjoy your day...................
