I can tell when I don't take mine. I have a lot less energy.

I did the Shakeology 3 day cleanse. I did not like the taste of the chocolate in the beginning. After about 4 shakes and learning that the more ice, the better. I was able to get them down. Of course, for the cleanse you can only mix them with water. I can see how it would be better mixed with other things. The…

Did my first one a few weeks ago! It was awesome! They do have training tips on their website. I would say running and upper body strength are very important. Drink lots of water 24 hours before. Some other things I didnt think of....a towel and baby wipes would have been nice. It's hard to eat your turkey legs then you…

I've lost a couple of band sizes but I haven't lost must of anything in the cup size. I was beginning to spill over but now the DDD fits perfect. Hopefully, I will at least loose a cup size by the time I finish my weightloss (another 64 pounds).

See if you can find a Fleet Feet. They got my husband in the perfect shoes and they arent too expensive.

After finishing the 3 day cleanse, I lost a total of 6 pounds. Since then (5 days) I have gained 2 pounds of that back. So I've managed to keep off 4 pounds. I'll update again next week.

I do not like seedy foods either. There are others to choose from. I also found that once I removed the bad, processed foods from my diet I started craving the foods that are good for me.

I just ended a 3 day fasting last week. We did shakes. It is hard for sure! Hang in there.

That's great! Keep it up!

Day two came and went..just as I was getting used to the taste of the chocolate, I ran out and had to use greenberry. CHOCOLATE is much MUCH better. On day two, I lost 1.5 pounds for a total of 4.5 pounds. Day three is today and I only have greenberry left. Feeling pretty tired. I haven't been able to get a whole shake…

First day is over and weighed in this morning. I lost 3 pounds. I have found it tastes a LOT better the colder it is. This morning, I mixed it up in my shaker then loaded it down with ice and shook it again. Got the whole glass down! Whoo hoo!

Got it free, so figured it was worth a shot. Just having a hard time getting past the taste.

Bump, must test this out!

1. Cokes/sweet tea 2. Biscuits and gravy 3. Fast food 4. Most processed food (Now, I get sick just looking at the ingredients) 5. My daily sugar snack (maybe just 1 or 2 times a month now) 6. Switched to whole grain breads and I don't miss the white stuff at all

Bio Oil...friend of mine had a dermatologist recommend it for scars. If you can make yourself use it twice a day, it will reduce their appearance. I've tried it and it does seem to work. But after a couple weeks, I get lazy with it. I found it at Wal-mart.

I don't like all the attention for sure! Feeling eyes staring at you....AWKWARD!

I had the same problem! The outside area of my right foot would cramp up so bad! I couldn't afford a $100 pair of new shoes either. The ones I have were brand new. What I found to work were athletic socks. Some that have some nice cushion in them. Worked like a charm!

After just a few sips, I turn blood red and get hot flashes! My lips have even gone numb before. Plus, I never liked the taste. The only kind I like are ones that taste like milkshakes.... The first time I drank, it was only a wine cooler and I ended up naked laying in the bathroom floor! Yikes!

I would say that you are active and yes, you should eat all or almost all your calories everyday. I was eating about 1500 per day and stalled. Increased my calories to 1800 and the weight started coming off again.

Bought one from Wal-mart as well. Took it back. It was saying we were burning a ton more calories than what we should plus it was so hard to use. A good quality HRM is worth the money. Went to a different store and bought the Polar 7. Much, much better and very easy to use.

I started sweating more when I started drinking more water. Do you drink a lot?

I wash my hair everyday. Sometimes I get that icky feeling around the hair that is close to my neck. I make sure I scrub good there. Also helps my hair to use a different shampoo once a week to help remove the buildup that occurs with my normal shampoo. I also condition everyday (leaving it on for 2 minutes). Pantiene…

I loose about a pound a week. Sometimes I have a good week and I'll drop 2 pounds. Need to try adding coconut oil or milk (in a can) to your diet everyday. I just started this myself but I've read good things about it online. It just takes longer for us to loose than it does someone without hypothyroidism.

Anything processed is going to be high in sodium. Also eating out is way high! Really have to go with fresh foods and fresh seasonings. Also, anything reduced fat or fat free is going to have more sodium. They just replace the calories/fat with other things that are worse for you. I have found that is isn't the calories I…

I use cocoa butter. Works on everything! Gotta rub it on a lot though. At least twice a day.

I do the same thing! Doesn't matter which one I'm doing. Also wasn't an issue in the beginning but now that I'm increasing the intensity, it's awful! I feel like I can't give 100% which is irritating.

THAT is awesome and makes it all worth it!

It is important! Each gram of fiber blocks 7 calories. It also fills you up and keeps you full longer. My goal is 24 grams per day. Some days I hit it and some days I dont. It also helps keep things regular...

Bump! I have such a hard time with these. I don't like most fruit and I can't stand the seeds.
