My sister has PCOS. To help get her cycle under control and to help her lose a few pounds, she asked her doctor if she could take metformin (I think that's the correct spelling.) Not only did she lose weight, but it regulated her enough that she became pregnant within 3 months of taking it without any other fertility…

Pistachios

My idea~ Brown the meat with some italian seasonings (oregano, basil) and dices fresh garlic. Add some petite diced tomatoes with no salt added, green peppers, onions, zuchini, carrots, or mushrooms (or all of them, anything you might like in an Italian dish). Boil some whole wheat pasta, drain and add a tablespoon of…

bump! Sounds absolutely delicious!

I use EAS 100% whey protein Vanilla. It has 23 g of protein. I mix it with 3/4 c of Skim Milk and some fruit with cinnamon or cocoa.

Remeber that if you work out during the day you are allowed to eat back those calories. So if you are allowed 1310 cal before your workout and then you burn 350 calories working out, you can actually have 1660 calories that day.

Welcome! I have been on here for a week and I love it. I work on a computer all day and I find myself keeping this open the entire time I am working. It is so motivational and easy to use. Good Luck with your goals!

I say keep eating it. My favorite is Chobani. It has so much extra protein in it and it is low fat. If it keeps you full and you are not going over your calories, what's the problem?

With no energy after an 18 hour day on Monday, I got up yesterday morning @ 5:15AM to go work out before the rotten weather hit. I used to wait until after work to get my workout in and in the past I would let the weather completely stop me.

I know of a 72 hour detox that I found around the holidays. I actually have been doing it for 4 days every 4 weeks. It seems to do it's job and I always feel great afterwards. I have done it 3x and have lost 4 lbs everytime. Breakfast-Protein Shake---1/2 c blueberries, 1/2 c rasberries, 1/2 banana, 1 tsp cinnamon, 3/4 c…

I also go every consistently by 20-40 grams. I have been wondering the same thing. I don't want it to cause any issues with reaching my goal but I enjoy the proteins I do eat.

I found a recipe for a wonderful antioxidant rich shake. 1 scoop Protein Powder (I use EAS 100% Whey Protein, Vanilla) 1/2 c Blueberries 1/2 c Rasberries 1/2 Banana 3/4 c Skim Milk Cinnamon to taste. Ice Cubes if desired. It tastes wonderful. Sometimes I omit the berries and use a whole banana and then add cocoa instead of…

I use EAS 100% Whey Protein Vanilla. It has 23 grams of protein. The flavor isn't overpowering so you can mix anything with it. Some mornings I have it with fruit and cinnamon and other mornings I use cocoa to make chocolate. I always have it with milk. It creates a nice variety and the cocoa gives you extra antioxidants.…
