I did my first double unders today! Did them before the WOD, then did 30 in the WOD. One at a time, but 30!! So excited!!!

Usually when my lower back hurts after lifting, it's not really my back. It's usually my glutes or hamstrings. Foam roller and massage are the best to stretch both.

I started with about 80% Paleo in January then did the Whole 30 Challenge in Feb. I now eat Paleo 100% of the time because I feel so much better. I no longer have headaches (and I lived with a headache, it just got worse or better every day) and I've lost 25 lbs since the 1st of the year. I've cut my diabetes meds in 1/2…

I was eating constanty and not really losing weight until I started eating Paleo. Since January 1 I've lost 19 lbs and I'm not hungry all of the time.

Protein bars are great for adding calories and energy. My personal fave is the Balance Bar, especially Chocolate Craze. I get them at BJ's (they come packed with box of chocolate/peanut butter bars which is also good). I like them because they taste like an iced brownie and I always feel like I'm eating a decadent dessert…

You can do it! I gained "baby" weight, 18 years ago with my 1st child...and I'm just now taking it (plus all the other weight I gained) off. Once you decide it's really what you want to do, and you are doing it for yourself, you will see the success that keeps you going. Reward yourself for minigoals and it will keep you…

How many servings is the recipe? It looks great!:smile:

My favorite "treat" is Weight Watchers Dark Chocolate/Rasberry ice cream bars. They are decadent!

You can do it! Just keep reminding yourself why you are eating right and working out. Not just for your wedding day, but for the wonderful life you will have. PS. Congrats on your engagement, and you picked a great day for a wedding. I'll be married 28 years on June 11, 2011.

Celebrate every milestone...a weight loss (even .1 lbs), maintaining your weight...you won't lose every week, drinking all of your water, a great workout...just don't celebrate with food and you'll reach your goal!

Baking fish is the easiest "good for you" thing to do. I bake mine pretty much the same way, but on 375 for 12 minutes. Salmon can be baked the same way. I buy the frozen packages at Walmart because the fish fillets are indvidually wrapped. You can thaw them in water in about 5 minutes. Another way to serve is don't put…
