  • I just started feeling sick yesterday - so annoying. Usually I catch it in time and start taking Echinacea the moment I feel something coming on. This time, I didn't feel it until I was at work - doubled up on the dose when I came home and I don't feel too bad today. When I first heard of it, i was very skeptical -…

  • I suffer too! Sometimes it can be 4-5 days... no joke. I have been taking a Fish Oil supplement and a Magnesium (I'm prone to kidney stones too). I love the Fish Oil - my dr started me there instead of prescribing meds. It works. I don't think brand really matters - i just usually get the Nature Made.

  • When I'm craving something, I try not to deprive myself of it. Last week, I was really hungry for triple chocolate chunk muffins... so I made them. I took the whole batch to work and had a muffin with my co-workers, logged it in and did not feel guilty. This way, I eat what I want but there is not 24 muffins sitting around…

    in Whey Protein?!? Comment by kristy8403 May 2012
  • I just started having a powdered protein shake for breakfast most morning. I use the Body Fortress Whey Protein - I got it from Walmart for like $13. I am a newbie too - but this was the best I was going to do to try it out. I don't mind the taste. There are some other things you can put in it like peanut butter, and it…
    in Whey Protein?!? Comment by kristy8403 May 2012
  • That's awesome! Congrats - it's definately a good feeling. I just arranged my closet by size the other day - as I lose weight I'll try on the next "section" of clothes. I'm thinking like every 10-15 lbs lost I'll give it a whirl. I'll either be excited that I have more clothes to wear or determined to get back into them.…

  • Thank you for doing this - I had a post yesterday about protein and no one is helping me. Please read my copy and paste from my post: I need some help here... While monitoring my calorie intake I've been getting confused as to how many carbs, fat & protein I need. I'm trying to keep my calorie intake around 1,200 to 1,500…

  • There is a website that one of my co-worker uses - www.lightinthebox.com - click on "weddings and events" on the top left then you can select the type of dress you want. When you find one, there is a check box in the "order" section, you can put in your customer measurements for an extra $30. The dresses are pretty cheap…
