I like making a wrap. Simple, easy, healthy, travels well, and it's very yummy. I usually make a big batch of poached chicken that I shred up. So I take a big spinach tortilla, add some shredded chicken, cheddar cheese (sometimes I'll warm it up before adding the rest of the ingredients, a few slices on avocado (with some…

I usually log the closest thing that I can find to what I've eaten.

Is there somewhere that you can just buy regular oats in bulk without any flavorings? That way you could add your own. That's what I do. Usually a teaspoon of Nutella (yum). Do you guys have online places you can buy in bulk? You can usually get good organic oats online nowadays and it's usually cheaper.

Yep. But I keep telling myself that I am still LOSING weight. A big part of it is medication I'm on, but I think it's also that it just doesn't fall off me as much as with others. It might not be as fast as I want, but I'm getting there. I've been trying for about 6 months and lost 20 lbs, but I've lost a ton of inches.…

Halfway there with another 20 to go.

Oh man. This is probably going to be TMI, but if I make a visit to the ladies room early in the morning, my day isn't as great. My workouts too. I'd also have to say having something sweet. I've always loved fruit and cereal for breakfast, but now I've switched to Nutella oatmeal and a fruit and kale smoothie. It really…

LOVE Zuzka. Fantastic workouts. I also like XHIT and Blogilates. Fun workouts!

Calorie deficit is going to be what helps get the weight off. Fitness is a whole other thing. Make sure that if she does decide to start a program, she's has the ok from her doctor. He may even have a few ideas on programs for her. Is she a part of the site yet? Even just getting out and walking. So many people have gotten…

Have you thought about finding a few blogs that focus on what you're looking for? Like paleo, vegetarian, gluten free, etc. Or if you're just looking for some healthy ideas skinnytaste is awesome. I like to keep a list of what veggies and fruits are in season to help me decide on recipes too. That's a great way to inspire…

Good music, a fun guy to get you through, and a heck of a sweat. I'm on my 2nd week of Beta. I am LOVING this program. I love getting it done quickly and still knowing I got a great workout in!

Are you getting them anywhere else? I'm doing Body Revolution and I get them on my outer thighs. I've realized it's from doing certain exercises where I have the weight resting there, or I accidentally knock myself especially during the balance ones. I didn't have this problem with any other program I've done though. Maybe…

If you look at my profile picture, my first picture was my beginning of Body Revolution, and the 2nd was at week 3 of Month 3. I had to leave off the last 2 weeks due to doctor's orders. But I've decided to do it again. I'm just starting Month 2 again as of tomorrow. I'm doing it along with my T25 schedule (T25 in the…

We're strongly considering Maui.

Kohls is probably my favorite place to shop since I'm in love with the collection by Jennifer Lopez. But I've also been trying to revamp my old wardrobe. If you have a sewing machine and some basic skill in sewing, you'd be amazed at how much of a change you can make in old clothes. I'm turning some old jeans (that I had…

This is an American thing, but I've found a lot of great (stylish) workout clothes at Target and Kohls. I live for Kohls. Favorite store! There isn't one where I live, but I still shop online. You can get pretty darn stylish things there. Target is great because you can get brands like Champion on clearance for super…

I messed up my knee pretty spectacularly falling off a horse when I was in high school. So even though I do strength training for it, I prefer low impact workouts just to be on the safe side. So I'm a big fan of Turbo Fire and T25 for the low impact modifications. I wear weighted gloves to get a bit of an extra challenge…

I absolutely love my resistance bands. They don't take up a lot of space, the exercises I can do with them is endless, and I got a set that has a few difference bands, so I can really feel the burn. Sounds like they'd be good if you're limited on space and what you can do. Also, don't forget about youtube. Zuzka Light has…

35% Carbs, 30% Protein, 35% Fat. It's been going good and I'm usually very close to hitting my goals and not going too far over. I also try to get my fiber. As long as I get my fiber, I feel like it's been a good day!

My husband adds it to his smoothies. You could also try little things. I find that adding some flax seeds to my oatmeal helps me get all my fiber. When artichokes are in season I have to make sure I don't go too far over! My husband really likes flax mug muffins. It's 1/4 cup flax meal, 1 egg, 1 tsp oil, 1/2 tsp baking…

1 cup Coffee 1 cup Vanilla Almond Milk 1 scoop Chocolate Protein Powder Yum! Tastes like a Starbucks drink!

Multivitamin, straight turmeric (I make my own), and Calcium with Vitamin D from my doctor. I also use protein powder. I don't like taking too much because I like getting things from food, but I also can't afford a whole bunch of stuff and throw up if I take too much. Even with food.

I add some flax seeds and a spoonful of Nutella. Tastes like a cookie and it really fills me up.

Haha! I agree.

I adore Blogilates. Probably my favorite youtube fitness channel. I followed a meal plan of hers in the past too. She's so bubbling and encouraging. Sometimes it's a bit too much for me, but I still love her. I always hope she'll come around me for a meet. Her butt and leg workouts make me burn. I love it!

I just saw a recipe for bacon jam. I bet that would be healthy! :tongue: I saw some little pizzas done on triscuits (get some fiber and pizza!), fruit and veggie with dips are always a great idea, pinwheels with spinach tortillas, pomegranate seeds (I eat those in place of candy at parties), sweet potato and carrot fries,…

It doesn't take that much for me to get full, but I get hungry again pretty quickly. I'm a grazer rather than a binger, so I can't relate as well as other people, but I've found that as long as I'm aware of my eating habits and make sure to have quick foods easily available to me (that I've already pre-logged). And if I…

Such fantastic results! You look so slender and healthy! Love the suit! :flowerforyou:

I played sports back in high school, but I've only been consistently working out for a few months now. It's finally starting to be fun now!

I haven't traveled around too much, but the most beautiful women that I've met were from Thailand, Israel, and India. Absolutely stunning. I'd Czech and Brazilian too because when I think of models, I think of those two places. But there are beautiful women all over the place in this world!

I think the average woman is a size 14, so you should be fine. My mom is a size 18 and has no problems. Depending on the airline, it might be a TOUCH tight, but that's a big maybe (I've never flown that one before). I think a lot of people who end up having to buy 2 seats are upwards of 300 lbs most of the time (at least…
