Gloria in WA - I'm with you on the Vitamin D. I take 5,000/day now because my new doctor took away my prescription for 50,000/wk. My body doesn't absorb certain vitamins well so I take Spirulina and Chlorella. Natural Algae that covers a bunch of stuff. DJ- Thank you for the kind welcome. I got to go to Myrtle Beach (for…

Hi there, my food diary is open. Add me :smile:

My husband asked me to give up the artificial stuff about a year ago. It was really hard at first because I wanted a soda. I started making fruit smoothies, which my brain saw as fruit so it was "good for you" calories. Then I heard about Stevia. Not the Stevia you get in the store. I either harvest my own stevia leaves…

Very informative, THANKS~! I will check out the ones mentioned above :)

Hi Lisa, I started about 9 months ago. I joined a gym at the end of Summer. I try to exercise everyday. If I can't get to the gym, I walk. Welcome! You can add for support.

Thursday Complete. Walked fast for 30 minutes and took a dance class :glasses:

Tuesday, completed walk and pushed PLAY :glasses:

I walked up and down hills the last 2 days. If you know anything to help shin splints I'd appreciate it.:embarassed: I refuse to quit, so today I pressed play to Hip Hop Abs for 30 minutes.

Good Day Beautiful Ladies ! I am new... 52 and recently moved from CA to NC. I just wanted to pop in and say Thank you so much for sharing. I read the stories and I know I'm not alone. I see all these beautiful faces and I am so inspired to hang in there when times are trying. This is an amazing group of women. My story...…

Ok, :happy: , Whats a Kettlebell?

Hi, I'm sure everyone reacts a bit different to a juice cleanse. ( I am not sure about a fast) I usually do a juice cleanse before I have blood work done. There are so many options when you mix veggies and fruit, and they are all good. My daughter drinks a smoothie every morning. She starts with raw spinach and adds…

Mmmm that sounds amazing!

I am with you on the frozen grapes. Cut in half and put in the freezer. It helps with the sweet cravings and it takes a while to eat because its frozen :)

Hi, Good Day :glasses: Seven years ago this Summer I lost my waist line. Where did it go? I feel like an Umpa Lumpa from the Chocolate Factory. I have worked for over 35 years, married, raised 2 children, bounced around from coast to coast, and now I have nothing to do and all day to do it. I need to start making some good…

Hi Warrior Prince I understand everything you said. I am a sugar addict also. I take Spirulina and Chlorella to level my sugar cravings and keep the wolves at bay. This is a whole food, not a vitamin. . 1. Spirulina and Chlorella (cuts sugar cravings) 2. Cut grapes in half, place in freezer. (You are forced to eat these…
