Thank you @ LauraT0525. That is an awesome post. <3 Printing them all out now to put on my walls. Oh my coworker also thanks you!

Great Job. Keep it up.

OMG! I can't believe anyone would think that it is acceptable to behave so poorly. You should report him to management. That must have been so surreal...I personally would have thought I was on a hidden camera show. He was very unprofessional. If his intent was to motivate, he should be more tactful. Either way, you should…

A little scared...but I am in. We can do it!

If it is not too late...I would love to join! I am going to Brasil in July and would like to lose 30lbs by then. Thank you

Eat more than your BMR. That is the minimum required for your body to function. For example, if you were bed-ridden you will need to eat that amount to maintain basic metabolic function. This is the basic number you need to keep vital organs functioning.

I grew up the same way. You get gingerale when you are sick. Our juices were homemade because my Mom said the store bought had preservatives and too little fruit content. I never really like them because she made them too sweet. The irony. :laugh: Well. Start reducing you daily total by one can and work from there.

:flowerforyou: :love: :drinker:

I used to like shakeology until they changed the formula towards the end of last year. For some reason, I can tolerate the after taste. Tried it with different fruits, PB etc. Last time I had in February, I got sick from it. Now I used one scoop of the meal replacement protein from BB with one scoop of egg protein. It has…

Yeah...I am in the same boat. I have several in my cupboard that are collecting dust. If you are not allergic to eggs try the egg white protein powder. I have not had any problems with that! Edited...Because I thought you were posting that GNC had a Lactose free one that works. :blushing:

I thought I was fit. I had to pause the DVD a couple of time. 1st time was after the second round of warm up. I don't know if I am ready for this yet!

Then weightlifting would be better for you than Cardio. If you are a newbie to WL. Try one of those classes or at home ones i.e Les Mills Pump. I finished my first round of LMP and lost 8 lbs in 12 weeks but the the inches lost were just phenomenal. P.S. I am not a coach and/or do not work for Beachbody.

That's a hard one. I have two sisters and I trust them. So I'd believe them. It depends on your relatiosnhip with your sister and the type of person that she is. I have a coworker who's sister is pretty much the devil incarnate and even if she tells you the sky is blue. You'd have to make sure it is truly blue. Don't get…

It takes about 4-6 weeks to determine if an exercise/eating regiment is truly working. I would suggest that you eat between BMR and TDEE for that period by adding in the calories in wekly increments.

Wow. Very inspirational. Keep up the great work.

:flowerforyou: You have done well both physically and emotionally. You were able to get to the root of the problem. That is a recipe for long term success. Congratulations!!!!:drinker:

I strongly dislikes lunges. They are so much harder than squats and it doesn't matter if I do them before r after. When I am done doing them I feel so much better though.

Well Said !!!!!

:sad: :cry: :cry: Just unbelievable!

Not a big snack person. I love most type of food specially bread, pasta, Cheese and caribbean style Rice. All the stuff that are bad for you and I can't seem to have just a little bit. I fell off the wagon with Rice over the last 4days. I've had it for dinner every night this week. My goal is to not have it any of these…

OMG...Funniest thread ever!

Just like losing weight takes time, so does gaining weight. Most people don't realize that. I have been on both sides so I know. I would focus on eating healthy but higher portion and you may want to supplement with a protein shake that is high in calories to help add bulk. Just like losing weight, you have to stick with…

You are doing so well! Keep it up. Just don't let small misteps get you off the wagon completely! We all go through it.

It depend sometimes 1 scoop instead of 2 of Choc shakeology. The first one is my go to one. 1 cup Frozen Berries Blend or fresh ones if in season. 1 or 1/2 cup Almond& Coconut milk blend 1 c of crushed ice 2 egg whites 2 tbsp of Chia Seeds(soaked overnight in the milk) 1 cup of water I take it after my workout and it keeps…

I am confused. :huh: Did I miss something? Please tell me it isn't so.:frown:

I don't like pop tarts just too sweet for me, but this thread is awesome :drinker: Some people just don't get it. People need to stop categorizing food as "good" or "bad' when are you going to learn...Moderation, Moderation, Moderation. I'd like to take a minute to thank the OP. Your thread kept me LOL at my desk. I've…

: :flowerforyou:

^^^^Remember these Two...very important!

Fast Food is addictive. I would say to start with small changes that way you don't get overwhelhm and feel like you are making to many changes at once. I would say start with one thing. For example, focus on one meal during the day when you will make healthy changes. And focus on that change and do it for 2 weeks or for as…
