I have been adding two tbl spoons of black chia seeds (1 net carb) to Chobani plain yogurt (7 carbs) and one packet of splenda.

How do you clothes fit? Have you been taking other measurements besides your weight? I would think this would be a good indicator of whether or not you are gaining muscle.

I think when people see you everyday weight loss isn't as noticeable. I saw a group of people a few weeks ago that I hadn't seen in over a year and they all noticed. Yet only one person I work with has said anything.

Nice job by the way, you look great! I am sure you feel great too!

One of my favorite simple recipes is..I cook the quinoa according to the directions but add chicken bullion and half a package of frozen mixed vegetables, Also, I use the allrecipes site anytime I am looking for recipe, it looks like they have a good variety of recipes for quinoa.…

Can't wait to try this!

For me (after losing and gaining again over the years), I have found that how quickly I loose weight makes a huge difference. When I drop weight more quickly the boobs seem to get smaller very quickly, however when losing around a pound or two per week I am not seeing much of a change in my bra size. And of course the…

Have you tried Pilates? I have the same issue as you (or similar anyway) I have found that Pilates really does help firm things up. I have been doing it for just a few weeks now for 20 minutes 3 to 4 days a week. and I am seeing some progress. I think you can find some free ones to try out on Youtube. It can be pretty…

I use the treadmill, I have a Kinect (lot's of good active games), I have some Pilates workout tapes that are great. One thing I have found is that there is a large variety of fitness workouts available on Cable OnDemand, gives you a chance to try something out before you buy a DVD or attend a class. Youtube also has a…

Do you think you might be missing something in your diet? I use to feel the same way and I haven't had that feeling in a while. Hunger is your brain's way of telling you I need you to give me something I need. It doesn't always have to be a lot, it just has to be the right thing. That is my experience anyway.

I have been following the anabolic diet for 3 1/2 months. It makes it a lot easier to stick with the low carb thing. Low carb Monday through Friday (less than 30g), then pretty much whatever you want on the weekend. I have consistantly lost a pound a week and have not felt this great in years. I will be having blood work…

Hello, I have been following this diet for about 14 weeks and I have consistently lost a pound a week. I feel awesome mentally and physically. It still amazes me that I can eat like this and lose weight too. I have found a few low carb "sweets" that make the Mon-Fri more enjoyable. My brother started the anabolic diet 4…

I wanna play too! :o)

I started following the anabolic diet 6 weeks ago. It has worked well for me. I have lost about a pound a week, which in it's self is not remarkable.However, considering I have been dieting for over 6 months without any movement on the scale or change in how my clothe fit. I was counting calories(and staying far under the…
