I went to zumba today for the first time in over a year!!

How would one know if they are insulin resistant? Is there a test to take? My obgyn doctor prescribed Metformin to me about a year ago (maybe longer). I take 850mg daily. Mind you, I am SUPPOSE to take the tablet twice a day....I dont. I just saw my obgyn yesterday, and he told me that I truly needed to take it twice a day…

Please confirm: i submitted my starting weight before launch. Now, I just opened the spreadsheet and updated my weight on the first page in column D. Is that correct? Thank you.

I thought Today was weigh in! :(

Just added my info!! :)

I think y'all don't realize that this 17 day diet isn't ONLY 17 days....it's a step program...each lasting 17 days...

Y'all..stop with the dr oz stuff...I misspoke...dr moreno was first introduced on dr. Phil back in 2011 & has since been featured on The Doctors more than once..

http://www.shape.com/weight-loss/weight-loss-strategies/most-popular-diets-2014 Anyhow, we officially started the diet today, and if I could delete the thread I would. I initially had titled this...looking for fellow 19 day dieters...bur then changed the title, which I wish I hadn't because it's caused nothing but grief…

Misinformed??? I'm only repeating what has been published in. Dr. Mike Morenos book, featured on the show The Doctors and Dr. Oz. And the only reason I knew about it was because it was listed as the number one dieting option in 2014 I only gave a brief summary...there's much more to it that no one would know about unless…

Also...You should know that the over all tone of this thread is more combative than encouraging. Thankfully I've lost weight both by counting calories and also by using diet plans....but there's the possibility that those who are truly new to mfp may not have that background. Please practice kindness and encouragement in…

Ugh come on...clearly that was a typo...but a funny one, I'll give it that.

[/b] well for the record...back in 2009 I was in law school and i too lost 45lbs counting calories so I've been there done that.. and just like lots of you I too gained it back and then some... yalls rationale is ridiculous.. you can lose weight and gain back no matter what method is used to initially lose it. The goal is…

very well said cyndi!

Not sure what your point is...If you're not interested just keep going on your merry way. I wasn't trying to spam anyone. I have nothing to benefit by asking people to join this group other than making friends with similar weight loss goals...

No need to be hostile or think Glad to have you!!

I am right there with you! I will add you!

I'm also looking for more motivation and friends on here, so if you're goals are similar to mine--losing 50+ lbs, please feel free to add me!

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE CLARIFY: Is this just a general group to track our individual success in 100 days or is there some sort of SPECIFIC diet plan we are suppose to follow for 100 days?

Hello. Christina here. 29 yrs old in Texas. 5'8". Not exactly sure on my weight...this year I've ranged from 270-300. Trying the 17 Day diet in 2015.

Yes. That is VERY unusual to go that long with out a bowel movement. Maybe you need to take a probiotic to flush out your system? It shouldn't be stored inside for that long. Hope you get better soon!

You look AMAZING! Congratulations!!

I finished yesterday, and I am so glad I stuck with it! My legs feel so much stronger. I can do sets of 50 with no problems and only take about a 10 second break before doing a second set of 50 :) . I am going to join the May 30 day squat challenge and join them where they are...on day 13. Should be even better the second…

DONE!!!

Hey girl! Happy Mother's Day!! I have 150 left to do. Almost there!!!

Day 27 was the first ay, in the entire challenge that I missed a day. I was standing all day in court and was EXHAUSTED by the time I got home. I decided to turn yesterday into my rest day. I am doing the 230 squats today and will keep on going til the end! Almost done!

So, last night I fell asleep on the couch, after only having done 130. I was super upset. That is the first day I have NOT been able to do all the required squats. SooooOOOoo...I got up extra early this morning and finished the remaining 90 lol. Still have to do the squats required for today!

I like your plan. I'm gonna follow it too! just finished 50 squats (2 sets of 25). It's amazing how strong my legs have gotten in the last 25 days!

150 down, 40 more to go!

You can do it!! You should join the May challenge group. There is a group that started May 1st. :)

GOT EM DONE!!
