I love vanilla liquid stevia and a little 1/2 & 1/2

Me too! I'm 35, a mom to a 9, and 10 year old and a 3 month old! -I've lost 30 lbs and I have 30 more to go! I'm super motivated and would love to have some like minded friends!

I've read the book several times, and I am doing the online bible study that started today!!! I would love to add anyone who is reading the book to my friends list!! I love to encourage others on their walk with God! please feel free to add me!

I love trail running too! I just did my first marathon and it was a trail run...which honestly was so so so hard, but now that it's over and I have done it I am so proud of myself!!!!! I love that I live in Idaho and I can pretty much trail run every day :)

Hey guys! I'm ann, I'm joining a day late!! I hope that's ok, but this challenge is a great idea! I'm 33 years old, currently I'm training for my first marathon.

I didn't like my armband so I found a "fanny pack" that my phone fits in and I love it. my husband makes fun of me but I don't care and I've seen tons of other runners with them :)

I run in the morning 90% of the time. I do better when I am hydrating all day before my run rather than just having water right before in the morning.

I'm doing it!

for me a protein shake is strictly to be used when I am in a hurry. I have them in my house, but the only time I make myself one is for convenience. If the kids are taking too long to get ready and I need something to eat in the car on the way to work I will make one. and I do like having them, but I'm like you i want to…

You are definitely young enough to get results! I was at a gym a couple of months ago and couldn't believe how many men and women in amazing shape in their 70's were lifting weights!!! It is very very encouraging and you could really be quite an example to others around you! You're never too old!

awesome! I'm super excited to try out the winter training program!!

I live in a small town with no gym access, besides the fact that I work full time, go to grad school and I am a mom and wife :) I have lost 60 lbs by logging my food, buying workout videos (I started with jillian michaels, but my faves are jackie warner) I did finally get a treadmill for the winter months, and I started…

this is easily made without the ground turkey I just add extra black beans and even garbonzo beans

Congratulations! I'm starting my second of year of grad school and I like to do the same thing. I usually make a hamburger/veggie soup that lasts all week It's super easy and tastes delicious. Ground Turkey (browned with onions, garlic, salt pepper, etc) green cabbage (chopped) zucchini one can green beans one can black…

Some people might be making a huge salad and they don't finish it. I know sometimes I can't believe the size of my awesome healthy meal, but I don't actually finish it because I get full.

Something that helps me is counting when I am breathing. 4 breaths in slowly, and 4 breaths out slowly. I don't know if this will help you but when I am having troubles that helps me a lot.

sure! i'll do that!

I had that happen to me too. I was 140 and a size 6 and tons of "friends" told me that I looked better at 150...etc. I let them affect me and I gained weight, but I will never do that again. I actually told the friends that I didn't appreciate the negativity and I felt awesome, and that they can feel free to keep the…

oh, and I actually made mine with honey. but she says you can use truvia

http://sallysbakingaddiction.com/2012/06/10/skinny-peanut-butter-swirl-brownies/ I made these a couple days ago. Thought they were yummy!

I have a very busy schedule too, I work out very early in the morning before work. My favorite videos that are short are: Jillian Michaels: Ripped in 30 (not 30 day shred) Personal Training with Jackie: 30 day fast start I love it rotate these videos so I don't get bored but they've been great for me!

my kids are 7 & 8 and I still have a pooch, but it's because I had c- sections. it is getting better though! lots of hard work!

That is awesome! Good for you for actually researching! I think people get caught up by the 2 weeks with no grains and fruit, but the intention of those 2 weeks are to rid your body of cravings. Which it completely works because I don't crave sweets at all. Then when you start slowly adding them in it teaches your body how…

You really should read the books before you tell people what the "diet" is trying to do to people. Even in the book they recommend only using real whole food, not shakes or bars unless absolutely necessary. I went from knowing nothing about nutrition to being eating only whole grains, completely teaching my children and…

definitely don't give up, maybe even do that week over again. There were times when I thought I was going to die and now I am on c10k week 11!! It's incredible what your body can do when you push it. but if you need to repeat a week a few times there is nothing wrong with that at all.

I think if I were you I would just go to phase 2 where you add in one carb and one fruit a day. but still eat lots of veggies.

I personally lost 60 pounds using the south beach plan, and I love it. I have maintained for over 3 years now and I love all the principle that the books taught me. The first week I lost a lot too, but it slows down and becomes more reasonable after that first phase. encourage your friend! It's a very healthy way of living.

I am in a very small town so we don't have access to a gym. we do have a couple of ladies who do zumba and body pump at the community center but I never get to go. I am busy with church on one of the nights and the other night I just need to be with my kids. I love to do videos at home. I have all of the Jillian Michaels,…
