A leopard does not change its spots!

I use Stevia. It is a natural sugar and it comes in flavors. I prefer vanilla.

Blue Salad and Chicken Broth

Thanks for the great post. :flowerforyou:

DITTO!

Only have 3 or so days left. Keep going. You'll love the results.

This happens to me as well. I just work through it and over time my breathing returns to normal. It is almost like my lungs are getting in shape, too!

We always watch National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation on Thanksgiving day. That is such a great movie. We :laugh: and :laugh: !

There was an article posted on yahoo yesterday that discussed clean eating. Not a bad article.

I agree, a humidifier will solve the problem.

I am going to!:laugh:

Try some Walden Farms dressings and/or sauces. They are zero everything. Don't get the ranch because it's disgusting. I use the sauces and dressings and LOTS of stuff.

Google It. There are TONS and TONS of exercises to do for arms and legs.

led me to believe that

I am doing a low carb diet (Atkins) as well. I don't have any fruit now as I am in Induction. I was on maintenance for a time and I had a smoothie for breakfast. In that smoothie I used 1 cup of fruit. Berries and melons are the best fruits to eat.

What would MFP do to you.....exactly?

My goal this week is to log EVERYTHING and hit that stupid :devil: button at the bottom. I have been logging things, but sometimes forget to add dinner or my snack. I am going to be diligent this week and see what happens.

All of you can add me. I just started phase one 3 weeks ago after going on maintenance for a while. I am feeling great.

I am having a chef's salad from walmart (One of the small ones) and a diet Montana chicken boullion packet.

All good. I did the same thing. My only caution is to make sure you are getting all your minerals. I started losing my hair after I lost 40 pounds. I started taking trace minerals and fish oil and the loss stopped.

anything bunless or chicken nuggets/tenders.

Still going strong. I was really tired this morning and my legs hurt from my gym workout on Tuesday but I pushed through it and made it.

I think you absolutely can do the 30 day shred. I am on day nine or ten and loving it. I can feel where I've lost inches. Go for it!:smile:

When the show first came on I watched one season. Since then you have people on the show for the wrong reasons. The problem lies in the fact that she gave her team an unauthorized substance without the doctor's approval. One of my issues is over the use of caffeine. If she's going to have them take caffeine, let them drink…

wow, are you trying to live vicariously through your children or what?

I can understand your fear. I lost 80, gained it back, then lost 64 and I've gained 29 back which is why I started the lo carb thing again. Speaking strictly from personal experience, I usually gain the second week or lose ounces. Are you exercising? That might help.

I have this sticky note on my computer: Don't give up what you want most for what you want now. I also have this sign posted on the bulletin board next to my desk: "To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did." When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening…

Went back down to level 1 the last two days and I am feeling great. I've also been going to the gym after work. I am so glad that I started doing a little something in the mornings before work. It makes my whole day better. :laugh:

I always tell myself that exercise must be intentional and for the sake of burning calories.
