Hi there, here is what I have learned so far. Yes you are supposed to eat back your calories. Also if you want to narrow down your caloric requirements to "maintain" your current weight I would google Mayo clinic calorie calculator and use that to calculate your needs. I also used a free app just called Calorie Calculator…

Not sure if diets and fitness just make people nasty, but here's another idea for you. Lymphatic drainage massage is helpful. Your lymph system removes toxins and waste from your interstitial fluids and sometimes they need help. But like I stressed before lots if water and clean eating/living is really important. I do all…

My favorite is unpeeled cucumber slices. Sounds strange by it's really good!

Some suggestions: see a massage therapist who does lymphatic drainage massage, you also should be drinking plenty of water. Some people fast. I do all if this and a detox bath which u can google and find a recipe you like.

When I do detox it's a fast with lemonade ( no sugar- stevia instead) green tea liquids, lots of water. 1/2 oz to every lb of body weight. You can also google detox baths. I like 2c sea salt 1c baking soda 2tbsp ginger I squeezed lemon Then add whatever essential oils you like, I use lemon essential oil and rose essential…

I get the same good sleep and wake ready to go... Weird isn't it!!

In the morning after potty. Keeps me focused on my goals.

Um, regular ramen noodles are full of yuk. I would definitely use a miracle noodle or miracle rice so there isn't a lot of fat and carbs from the noodle.

I use Jay Robb Whey protein shake mix with "so delicious" sugar free vanilla coconut milk. You can get the jay rob in several flavors in whey or egg protein on Amazon for a good price. It's made with Stevia instead of sugar and is the best tasting I have found after trying numerous.

Green tea is great. Water intake should be 1/2oz per lb of body weight a day. So if someone weighed 200lbs their daily water intake should be 100oz. This includes green tea. :smile:

I use Jay Robb whey protien shake mix which is the best tasting I have found, comes in several flavors and is made with Stevia, not sugar. I usually make it with sugar free coconut milk or water. It's a convenience thing and if I am fasting to detox my body or do a cleanse it provide good protein quick and easy.

Sugar free is difficult. I agree trying to avoid refined sugars is a good idea. I use Organic Stevia made by "Now" brand foods because after running into other stevias which had those hidden sugars ...sucrose other things I can't pronounce. I personally feel tremendously more energy and sleep better when I am not allowing…

Same here, lost it, gained it back a few times. Tired of excuses and all that. I am open to friends to motivate me and who also need motivation. I find that it's a friendly competition and accountability all at the same time!

Well go ahead and add me as well! I need all the help and support I can get, good at giving it back too!
