I'm currently doing intermittent fasting as well. my ratio is 2:5. A Little extreme but I've been doing it for a while and it's what's worked best for me. I eat a big healthy dinner between 4-7pm consisting of lean protein, lots of veggies, and carbs. I have to keep a lot of that low-fat as I got my gallbladder removed and…

I've been through this battle before with others over this topic on numerous occasions. I do water fasts for 3 days every 1 - 2 months to purify myself and I have even been given the green light from my nutritionist AND my doctor to do this. Since then, my blood pressure has dropped immensely, and I find I sleep better,…

This is great feedback thank you! I looked into other threads and not one person had any thing bad to say about it, I'll probably end up starting the alpha cycle today :D haha I hope it is more fun than Insanity, because i was dying through almost every workout lol I'm hoping to lose some serious inches! And have fun while…

What's the point of a juice fast? or a detox/body cleanse? Because it's a way to clean your body of impurities as a result, yes you may lose weight, but you also gain so much more in the process than others want you to think, and therefore bash it because its alien to them. You going to say that doing intermittent fasting,…

I'm not starving myself. It's a fast yes, but in other words, it's a cleanse, a detox. So are you going to say to those others who do those types of things are starving themselves silly? Or those who participate in the Ramada and do not eat OR drink for 12-14 hours are just stupid because "oh no, their not eating". Love…

the first week was the worst. then it was up and down after than for a bit. I didn't get to complete the 2nd month though. I lost probably 5lbs in that month I did, and I never missed a day, ate healthy, and did additional weight lifting. Yet I know other people who did it everyday ate healthy and what not and lost almost…

I love working out at home as I have 2 kids, it makes it easier, it's more convenient and you can switch on your favorite tv show or movie, or workout DVD and just go to town. I've downloaded almost every Jillian Michael video she's released, i've also got insanity, chalean extreme, turbo fire, plus dozens and dozens of…

I agree with many people's comments on here. When other's see us breaking our backs, busting our *kitten*'s, and being "health nuts" they think we're crazy. And when we tell them truthfully that it's not some magic diet pill or new weight loss rave, we're just eating healthy daily, exercising as much as we can that suits…

my dad had to get b12 and has been getting b12 shots for the last 10 years because they had to take out of a piece of his intestine that is needed to absorb this vitamin. He hates them. If you really want more b12, just take b12 and b6 daily vitamins. It's still the same thing but you dont need to get poked with a needle.

hey :) feel free to add me, or i'll add you, i'm doing the 5:2 diet too! :) I'm starting back up in a bit though, i'm in the middle of a water fast atm haha

I gave this a try about a month ago, and lost about 12-15 lbs and was astounded that for a whole 2 weeks of me eating like a pig and not exercising as frequently as i was, i moved to a new house and ended up having to survive off of fast food basically for 3 days cause we didn't have our fridge, and my brothers wedding so…

I've got a bunch by jillian michaels, i have insanity and brazilian butt lift. Plus LOTS of zumba videos :D there good cause then you can just play them through your tv/dvd/or xbox on USB or…

I agree that looks can be deceiving. I used to share clothes with my best friend and she was 30lbs heavier than me and an inch shorter but they still fit me perfectly. Minus the bust part may have been a little lose considering her boobs were 4x the size of mine, haha. Body composition is MUCH different throughout other…

I'm 22 :D But it does seem that a lot of people think it's weird that anyone in their late teens/early 20's dieting seems really weird. My parents tell me all the time that it's not something i should be worrying about.

Haha! I just started playing this game last week :D LOVE IT ! I'm Qadira

I've been doing a water-fast for about 4 and a half days now i'm doing it for 20 - 30 days. You ONLY drink water (or fresh fruit juice), and if you have to have a cheat or must eat-something it has to be raw, like fruit & veggies only and has to be small or you'll be right back where you started. Some of my friends do…

I did insanity about 3 months ago and i did it for 60 days. i lost 3" and 5lbs and i put my blood sweat and tears into that workout everyday. I ate healthy and watched what i ate and drank plenty of water. It wasn't a good turn out for me and i was in pretty bad shape. BUT i've seen other people do it, my mother in law…

I was against them for the longest time, then my first child started walking, the next day she was running. She's 18months, and If she broke away from you at the grocery store or walking somewhere holding onto her hand, she was gone. I was walking with her through a parking lot and she broke away from me and god bless she…

After my second kid i quit smoking and maybe gained 3-5lbs it wasn't a huge gain right so I didn't think too much of it cause with breastfeeding and light exercise it came off as quickly as i put it on. Yet my husband also quit smoking and he lost about 15lbs. Which blew my mind, and we both had huge cravings for…

Never ever give up no matter how hard it may seem at times and don't discourage yourself if you take rest days and indulge in something unhealthy once and a while, or haven't lost weight as fast as you have imagined you would. Enjoy the burn and have patience, in the end it'll be worth all of your hard work. You only out…
