I love all of the flavors of Yoplait Greek 100, but my faves are the apple pie or key lime.

You're like me..I get very high anxiety at the doctors office and my blood pressure soars! Not a good feeling at all. Try to stay calm...stressing wont change anything. If your cholesterol and/or A1C is high, as mine was, diet can really help with that. Since losing weight my blood pressure came way down...I am going for…

That looks awesome...and sounds like you have a pretty amazing mom. What a great story.

I do ChaLean 3 times per week and T25 on alternate days.

LOL...love this thread.

I'm a D cup and I have to wear a sports bra and a tight tank over that to keep the girls from bouncing around too much. It helps!

Pilates hits muscles you never knew you had...lol. It gets easier the more you do it. I LOVE pilates.

I used to get those headaches when I first started cutting carbs and packaged foods. I realized that my sodium intake was too low. I was keeping it well under 1500 mg daily and I was working out a lot and sweating a lot and drinking a lot of water. After I raised my sodium up a bit, the headaches stopped. I wound up…

ChaLean Burn phase 2

Melt some dark chocolate. Dip bananas and strawberries in the melted (but not too hot!) chocolate. Place on parchment paper and freeze.

That's what worked for me too.

Congrats to both of you!

Hershey's chocolate eggs and peppermint patties.

I love Chinese food. I always get steamed shrimp or chicken with string beans or mixed Chinese vegetables, with brown rice and a lower sodium brown sauce on the side for dipping. (If you ask, they can make their regular brown sauce "lighter" and less sodium) I have that every other week and never get a spike in the scale.

Hi..feel free to add me. I'm 5'4", started at about 172 lbs and currently at 149lbs. My goal is to get down to pre-babies weight of 130-135lbs

Honeycrisp and pink lady are my favorites...and a nice, crunchy non-"mealy" red delicious. I love apples

Good for you! Nothing like finding something you enjoy and sticking with it! Awesome!

I had a huge jar fall off the shelf and land right on my toe. Lost the toe nail. That hurt me. :(

I read that American and Canadian albacore (chunk white) is the safest as it has the lowest level of mercury.

You're amazing...truly. Congrats on an amazing life change!

Truly an inspiration! Congrats and thanks for sharing!

wow.....unbelievably amazing progress!!!! Wear that bikini and be proud!!!! Congrats!!!

I was diagnosed as "pre-diabetes" and my doctor told me to go lower carb, but not too low. She said to try to stick with whole grains, fruit, veggies, lean protein...and try not to go over 45 grams of carbs per meal. She said losing weight in itself should help me to stabilize my blood sugars. I set my macros as 40% carb,…

I would only take what I have a deficiency in based on blood work as I hate swallowing pills. My doctor has me on vitamin D and B12 because my blood work showed very low levels.

^This is excellent advice.^

Have you tried pilates?

I definitely feel full on much less food than I used to be able to eat.I think it's because I tend to eat a lot slower now.

I'm boring...had turkey and swiss on 7 grain bread with mustard. Baby carrots on the side.

The warm up is definitely lacking. I do a good 10 minutes of warm up before starting the workout...and an extra 5-10 minutes of cool down/stretching afterwards.

I stay hydrated all day and never have that problem. Be sure to get enough fluids before and after working out.
