Nay, it causes too much bloating. Only on special occasions.

Orbitz bubble gum. I chew about 2-4 pieces a day.

Did NMTZ last night and it felt downright easy compared to JMBR. 7 & 8 really kicked my behind last time I did them. I think tonight I'm working backwards and hitting 5 & 6 again.

I eat about a third to half of my exercise calories back.

I think people turn to food after grief to feel fulfilled. A good show that tackles this from time to time is "Supersize vs. Superskinny". Watching others do this has made me guard against doing it myself. I also saw my mother do this. It's really no way to live.

When I was sloppy with my diet, I was a sucker for red velvet cake. I'd allow myself a slice or a cupcake if it were made well and available and I could work off some of the calories at some point during the day. . :)

There's something I saw on Pinterest where it takes approximately a couple of weeks for you to start seeing changes in yourself, about a month for family and friends, and two to three months for everyone else. That's probably not completely accurate time wise, but your story reminds me that while it's tempting to seek…

I just finished 7 & 8! Had to modify some of the plyometric stuff due to my downstairs neighbor but...wow. The jackknife crunches and walking planks were very intense. I just tried to keep it moving through the circuits and gulp down water constantly.

I always weigh myself Sunday night. I just weighed myself again this morning and now I'm 138.4....that's two pounds less than last night's reading! I think I'm going to start recording my weight once Sunday night and once Monday morning from now on....just to get a clearer picture. I must be fluctuating with water weight.…

Running my fastest time on Friday and noticing that I have to keep pulling up my exercise shorts while I'm running because they're getting too big for me.

Thanks for the advice, I may start doing that. For now I've just been eating foods that I can keep consistent caloric measurements of (servings per package, etc.) Maybe I'll drop the oil down to a teaspoon in the meantime.

No, I just measure it and keep the quantities consistent.

Wow, I'm going to have to find a more comprehensive way to track sodium....I didn't realize that the entries I was logging didn't have the info. Thanks.

Thanks guys. My diary should be open now. I'm not near PMS but I took a pain medication last Sunday before my last weigh in and I'm wondering if it dehydrated me before I weighed myself last week. I'm not going to despair though. I trust the process...

Thanks guys!

Try some of the weight loss/fitness hypnosis programs before you go to sleep.

This show is great, and so prolific. I started it at the beginning of my weight loss journey and I can't believe I'm up to Season 7. It's got lots of great information about nutrition. The British perspective, the science, and the reality TV angle is really compelling.

I log right before or after a meal. I think, like some other posters suggested, that I might pre log in the maintenance phase. Apparently it helps with discipline and reconsidering extra treats.

Hi everyone I'm Maria. Started doing this workout to fill my hour of circuit training a day...I usually do 2 workouts. When I hit maintenance I may just do 1. I'm 5'2" and trying to get to my GW of 110...I have to say the JMBR workouts are really challenging and I feel they're effective as well. I skip some cardio or do it…

I'm doing JMBR workouts in my apartment where my downstairs neighbor is a pain about me jumping so I'm modifying it and making up for cardio by running outside every night and doing the mat work and lifting parts. I do the lunges and even some of the plyometric moves & whatnot, I just don't come down that hard. I scream to…

I want to look better in my clothes I want to look better out of my clothes That's it, really. :)

I'm 5'2" and my GW is 110

Looking good girl....you are inspiring!
