Kind of a weird NSV but this morning I was running really late for work and didn't pack a breakfast so I swung by the Golden Arches and made HEALTHY choices (No cheese, no butter) and a coke zero. Logged it in my diary, and IT FITS MY CALORIES! (Pre gym sesh). It was kind of an "ah-ha" moment realizing you can have your…

I can't do it everyday, I used to and developed a really unhealthy relationship with food/weight. I'd cry every time I stepped on it. Now, I do it in the morning on Wednesdays - post poop!

Ah fair enough, I haven't been exposed to this before. Interesting concept. I was repling based on my experience with freshfitfoods.ca/

I've never had the issue but could you try watering it down gradually?

My hero. Always leave room for wine.

BACON wrapped AVOCADO

I bought the book New Rules of Lifting For Women - Lift Like a Man, Look Like a Goddess. I really enjoyed it. It starts out reasonably simple and gets progressively more challenging. I highly recommend it for a 're-begginer'. Also, see if LA Fitness has any free PT sessions, I think most places do? As for form and such,…

Hum, I don't know that I've ever measured my water. My pee tells me I'm doing okay though. I guess my water cup at work is 24oz and I fill it 4 ish times a day plus what I get from a coffee or tea or food. I like water :)

I explored the idea for about 30 minutes, went to sign up, saw the final price, bailed. It's nothing more than meal prep done for you so - unless you think you'll pay for this for the rest of - ever, I'd take a class in meal prep or healthy cooking and do it yourself. If it's in your budget, can I borrow $100? Jk, but if…

Amazing! Look at your waist! Great job. You ARE a success story!

AMAZING!

It absolutely happens to me too. Depending on how funk'ed or funky it is, I'll force myself to go to a fitness class (yoga is a favourite), have a bubble bath and a tea or glass of wine and try again the next day. Reach out to friends you know you'll have a good time with and try and forget for a little while.

Yeah, if it's sweetness you're looking for, there are a lot of alternatives to sugar. Likewise with the soda, reach for the diet or zero version.

You guys are all a wealth of knowledge. Thank you. Most of it is seeming to clear up a bit (prescription cream and diet) but some stubborn spots linger. Time will tell and hopefully get better. Thanks again.

I choose not to eat it because it becomes butt tea. Is that acceptable??

But you locked her in. So.....

Do your best to get to the recommended calories.

Yeah, what's the difference in what youre supposed to hit. If it's minimal and you're not hungry, no worried. If it's bigger, fill up. The diary auto saves and moves to the next day if that is what you're worried about. The goal calories will be the same as today - they don't add in the missed ones today if thats what…

Lol. Yep. My friend and I who go together keep saying we should just do this at the gym together but we have been known to detour from the gym to a liquor store or poutine place. Whoops.

Wait - what?

Echo.

Oh, and I log the calories they give me as an "Other - Cardio"

Cost aside, I love Orange Theory. In fact, I just booked a class. @Teresa502 it's a shame you had to pay? Ours offers first session (maybe week) free. And I don't do a monthly pass based on dollar per class. I bought a bundle of 25 classes and am using those. They are good for a year so if I have an injury, long vacation,…

Bacon wrapped avocado

It's just the type of dietbet you can sign up for. there's that or transformer. Kickstarter is generally 4% weight loss over 4 weeks Transformer is a longer term goal. 6 months and each month is broken down to a round ie) 3% loss month 1, 5% cumulative month 2, etc.

I know how great I feel after a workout. And I eat back about 1/2 my exercise earned calories so I bribe myself a little. If I have all my workout stuff in my bag it helps and I have a preworkout ready in case I'm feeling exceptionally unmotivated. Once I chug that guy - there's no turning back. It's a desperate times kind…

Bacon wrapped avocado. Discovered these gems yesterday. step 1) Pre heat oven to 425. 2) slice avocado 3) wrap a slice in bacon (Half a slice of bacone worked for each sliver but you could use more or less) 4) season as desired (chili powder, garlic powder) 5) Bake 15 minutes (or bake 10/broil 5 - adjust for your…

A dress I bought a few months ago had that annoying peek-a-boo button thing. As I've been losing, that peek has become less and less noticeable!

Definitely following, thanks!
