I make sauerkraut all the time! I just cut a cabbage by hand into shreds removing the core, salt it, massage the salt into it and let it sit in a bowl with a weighted bowl pressing it down until it forms a lot of liquid. Usually an hour or so. Then I transfer the whole thing to a clean mason jar and press it down as hard…

When we go on business trips, my husband and I hit up the local natural grocers, sprouts or Whole Foods and get premade salads, small veggie trays, cold chicken or sushi trays, the juice bar for fresh fruit or green smoothies or fresh juice. They also have hot food bars that have healthy options like sweet potatoes and…

I can't do whey at all so I have been drinking PaleoPro Ancient Cacao powder for years. It's grass fed beef collagen based and it's delicious. 26 protein per scoop.

3 over easy eggs, 2 turkey sausage links, 2 slices Ezekiel bread with butter and natural strawberry spread. A cup of coffee with Silk coconut cream and cinnamon. So yum.

SW: 281 (started 1/1/18) CW: 236 (down 45lbs as of today!) GW: 175 Diet: Strict Paleo/Low Carb/Whole30 - Eating 5 mini meals a day.

I'm in. I'm in my early 40's and my goal is to lose 15 pounds by June anyway so this is perfect :)

I suffered from histamine attacks and hive breakouts for the last 3 years which left my skin raw from me scratching it all night long. I had enough once January 1st hit. I read that the number 8 means new beginnings so I took 2018 as the year I was going to take my health seriously and get fit once and for all. I now have…

Woohoo! I'm at 78 days and 28 lbs. This is our YEAR :smiley:

You can add me if you'd like. I had 100 pounds to lose at the beginning of the year and I have lost almost 30 so far. I'd love more support.

I think we are sisters from another mother. Our starting weight is almost exact and our goal is the same. I too did Farrell's and thought I was going to win the whole thing. I lost 41 pounds in those 10 weeks and at the finale party they gave me a certificate saying I lost the most weight ever at their location in 10 weeks…

We are in Colorado at 9000 feet and we already are having a wild fire threat because we've had a foot of snow all winter. It's the driest season it's been in years. It's scary.

Eggs! I literally could eat a dozen over easy fried eggs in one sitting! They are so tasty especially cooked in kerrygold butter. MMMMMMMM!

At 20 lbs lost I hired a personal trainer. At 25 lbs I'm buying a couple pairs of pants! My jeans are falling off me today and I only have 2 pounds to reach my 25lb goal so that will be fun! At 50lbs I'm going to do something amazing. I haven't narrowed my rewards down yet but I have a lot in mind. Ultimately at 100 lbs…

I have 2 actually. 1. is to hit 25lb weight loss soon. I'm at 19lbs down as of 1/1 so I'll get there soon. 2. My daughter is getting married either late summer or fall and I want to look amazing for her wedding :)

YUM!

You can add me too. My food logs are open to friends :)

You can add me. I have more than 50 to lose but I did lose 50 pounds last year to clean eating so I'm doing the exact same thing again this round.

For my man: Obsession or Bulgari Extreme. Yum! For me: honey almond lotion is plenty.

Mmmm one cup of super fresh, ground from beans, brewed with a splash of cream upon wake up. Heaven!

It depends on what you are eating and how much. I eat 6 small meals per day and my last one is scheduled for 9 or 9:30pm each night. I drink a green spinach protein smoothie as my last meal so even though it fills my stomach it digests beautifully and doesn't affect my sleep cycle. That's what I mean by it depends :)

You can do it or get very close if you work your a rse off and stay focused from here on out. You can't cheat day after day and not log your food or skip several workouts per week and expect the results. I know because I've lost 50 pounds since October and it's my goal to hit 100 pounds gone by December and I've had my…

You are a strong person mentally then. It must be wonderful to be so disciplined and strong every day :)

47 pounds since Oct. 2014. I'm doing Farrell's Extreme Bodyshaping and training for a Spartan now. I have about 50 pounds or so to go.

The very first time I joined WW our meeting leader for the night talked about how when she was 1/2 way through her weight loss journey she went to the store one night with a binge mindset. She was super stressed that day and went and bought a box of oreos and twinkies. She got in her car and started driving towards home…

Congratulations on both the success AND your pregnancy!!!!!!!!!!

This is me at 35 lbs down. I need to take a new one at 50 lbs down although I don't look a lot different.

I saw a picture of myself full on from the front taken while I was sitting down. I saw all the rolls and my very heavy bloated face and it made me cry (pic is actually one of my profile pictures and it is my 'before' picture). That was the last straw for me. A friend of mine joined Farrell's and started kickboxing and…

Every single morning. After using the bathroom. Naked. It's the most consistent that way. I use the scale as my progress point so I know what foods affect the scale since I eat pretty much the same things over and over. It shows me what works and what doesn't. If the scale doesn't move for a week then I know I have to…

All of this! But especially the last one! At my absolute highest weight I was a 22/24 and it took a good 20 pounds to get into a size 20 and another 15 pounds to get into an 18 and now I'm on the verge of getting into a 16 and that took 15 pounds to get here and I can NOT wait to get into a 14 again! It has been SO long!

I want what she's having!
