So let me just tell you that I was in Nola this past weekend and of course you can't go to Nola and expect to not drink a bit. We only ate 3 times in the 4 days we were there (if we weren't at the bars we were sleeping. No time for food) but I blew up like a balloon. I looked so swollen when I got home! Just looking at…

I have not had the surgery, but based off of my observations of the people I work with that have had the surgery, you need to learn healthy habits now and not depend on the surgery to make you lose weight. The people that I have seen that have embraced the new healthy lifestyle along with the surgery are the ones that have…

Bump!!!!

I-O Baby!!!!! Born and raised in Ohio and my family eat sleeps and breathes the Buckeyes! I'm just outside of Dayton. Add me if you would like some Buckeye support!

This is my fave workout! I love TurboFire. Chalean is a great motivator and before I know it the workout is done and I'm drenched. Good luck in your journey! I would recommend this workout to anyone that can keep up with a fast paced workout.

Hi everyone! Mom to a little 2 year old girl that I like to call Miss Busy. I work outside of the home full time and I am also a full time college student (almost done thank goodness!!!!!) I'm currenty doing the TurboFire workouts (which I have grown to become addicted to) and I want to start incorporating some form of…

bump!

Raw brocolli, sliced cucumbers, sweet bell peppers with a spicy italian dressing YUM YUM. OR spinach with a serving of fritos and salsa on top.

Try teaching your body to eat all day long. Instead of 3 meals and 1 slimfast, eat 5 or 6 smaller meals throughout the day. I know it's easier said than done and at first you will feel so full because your metabolism is not used to food all day, but eventually your body will be hungry and you will find that you will eat…

I really struggle working out in the morning. I tend to yawn the entire time and I just don't feel like I get the same quality workout as I do in the evening. My advice to you would be workout as soon as you get home from work so you can still have time in the evening to do any extra activities. You will feel great in the…

Turbofire and P90X! Turbofire if you are looking to get a killer cardio workout and P90X if you are looking to tone up.

I eat what I want because I don't believe in depriving my body of anything ( what's the point of living if you not happy right? ) but I do notice that while I might eat something out of my normal meal times, it's much healthier now than it was even two months ago. I try to eat a lot of veggies throughout the day because…

Always inches for me. I lost a total of 4.5 inches last week but only lost .4oz. Make sure you measure every week and keep track of it! You will feel great when you see the amount of inches you will lose!

Cut up apple with crunchy peanut butter and a glass of wine :) Seriously the best ever.

Never deprive yourself of anything! When you deprive yourself, you are building the craving even more so when you do finally give in you will binge! If you want a piece of chocolate, eat it. But eat 1 or 2 and not the entire bag. It's all about controlling the portions.

Hi - I also used to suffer from this issue and I have found that introducing more veggies is key in keeping my bowels working. Try increasing your vegtable intake everyday. I generally eat a spinach salad with bell peppers, broccoli and cucumbers everyday for lunch at work. And I also bring apples and bananas to snack on.…
