I'm on day 7 of my 90 day candida cleanse. (So excited to make it past day 9 this attempt!! Lol) I'm very happy with the results so far. I did a workout (lifting) a couple days ago and felt weak. I was worried that I wasn't eating enough (I'm not tracking), but yesterday I did another one, and I felt strong and amazing!…

It sounds like you really know yourself, and what you need to do in order to rise to the occasion in your daily life, and in your food choices! I'm rooting for you!!

I love that!! What are you trying so far? For me, I try to journal about my worries instead of eating, so I can figure out how to deal with my stressors. This has been EXTREMELY helpful to me over the past month. I write down what worries me until later, and then I try to only spend 30 mins or less writing about them,…

I have a couple friends who do long fasts too, and love it. Dr. Fung has some great info on YouTube about fasting. Because of my hormone issues, longer fasts just aren't for me... at least while trying to balance them, because it can raise cortisol, and high cortisol can steal progesterone and convert it to cortisol,…

A lifetime of reading about it, and now doing the work that I know I need to do. My favourite books are: - The Hormone Cure, by Sara Gottfried - The Yeast Connection, by William G Crook (an oldy, but a goody - I don't agree with everything he says [with the food options] but still...) - The Candida Cure, by Ann Boroch (I…

In my experience, your body will probably tell you what it wants if you ignore it. If you push on, but don't lose, it might be a message. The body gives us all sorts of messages (most people tend to ignore till it gets louder).

Hi! I'd really like to join in please! Best wishes everyone!!

Hey everyone! I hope you all have your "whys" for the month. My current why is because I've been going crazy on junk foods, and putting of a cleanse I've wanted to finish for 2 years (it's 90 days long, but I've never gotten past day 9). So, this time, working from home, I have no excuses (before I used to complain I…

I'm a believer that until we deal with our issues, we are likely to keep attracting similar situations to ourselves. Stuff ALWAYS comes up in our lives as a way of pointing out what we haven't dealt with yet, and I feel it does it a lot, particularly, when we're at a point where we are ready to deal with it. Feel your…

How sad are you? I feel depression at times too, but I certainly don't think that my lack of desire to workout is a reason to medicate (with something that has a side effect of making me more depressed). When I get stuck in sadness, I seek out counsellors, I seek answers with my naturopath, I try to balance my hormones and…

It's getting really old after less than 2 months?!? I've been here 11 years, and I'm the past 2 years I haven't maintained a single 9 pound loss... Seems like you just need perspective. Also, you answered your own question in mentioning you need to move more. Listen to your intuition.

I have a friend with migraines who says magnesium bisglycinate helps her. The sleep issues could be from SO many things. I work with a naturopath for my sleep and hormone imbalances. Keep searching for your answers cause they're out there! Pain is the body's way of telling you something is wrong, and until we listen, the…

My advice would be to seek holistic practitioners (ie holistic nutritionist, naturopath) in addition to talking to your doctor. Type 2 diabetes is primarily linked to things within your control. Try not to get lost in your feelings, and seek out a counsellor if you feel that would help you get unstuck and process things.…

Do some research on resting metabolic rate. Then add your workout calories on top of that, and that should give you your maintenance calories. Decrease by 15% for weight loss. :D This is generally accepted as a starting point. Adjust as necessary. Eat clean, whole foods. Much easier said than done! I know!

I did habit stacking when I was teaching myself violin last year. I love what you said @TheresaM787 ! Very inspiring!
-
I only had dumbbells when I started. Body weight moves are also great!! I started with Jillian Michael's DVDs. I'm also a fan of Chalean Extreme (Beachbody on Demand would have her, but there's a subscription fee.)

Agreed.

I'm at 10.5 so far! I would love to join in for the rest of this challenge. :)
