Welcome April. The flip side of those 20yr old fr. requests is that you are their motivation. Does make you wanna smile heh? :)

It starts by thinking it, then speaking it, then doing it. ;)

Excellent. Congrats and keep it going.

Wow! Congrats. Just goes to show that just staying with the program will bring eventual results. Very inspiring.

Welcome Lizette. You are in good company here.

I suppose it would be called a blended drink if frozen inputs are not used :)

Welcome !. Your choice of foods must become a lifestyle habit. Any supplement should preferably include all the 90 essential nutrients that the body needs. Link up

Excellent!! Congrats

Welcome!! Corrinnehearn. You are at a good place.

[Anything you do, as long as you're eating correctly, will help you lose weight..] I agree with above sentence. but especially if you are getting all your essential minerals intake, you will lose weight naturally. See (www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Z0LHm_OPiw) You can also do a search on Garcinia cambogia. All the best

Welcome. You are at the right place

Yea I add frozen strawberries and blueberries, kefir and protein powder and make me a smoothie with it :)

Congrats supermom627 ...and keep it going!!

It is certainly different for everybody. For some of us total elimination becomes necessary. The single meal snack does work though. I also find that gradually reducing sugar intake (eg in drinks) over time, helps to control your sweet tooth. You will notice the transition after a while and no longer want stuff as sweet.…

Welcome Dawn and Dasonrock26. Great community and resource. Feel free to add me as friend

My real name is Chris but my user name came from my website which has "byChris" added to my user name. Who knows maybe someday all your success stories will be featured there

Welcome diggsgar. You have a lot of people in your corner rooting for you. It will get easier as your new habits become a new lifestyle. Please take regular pictures on your progress and put them up for added motivation. I would like to feature your success on my website in due course for the world to be inspired. Good…

Every habit that has ever been formed took some time and so when changes and adjustments are made to our food routine, they will take some time too. If you decide that you are completely eliminating some things from your lifestyle, they will eventually happen but it always starts with the mindset. You can do it. Good luck.

Support is always better and easier on the journey, but remember the end goal is you, so do what you have to do. Speak to husband about it and hopefully he will follow through and join you.

Good going, It is several small victories that will lead to your transformation. Keep it going. God bless.

I was merely quoting leelee870. ...are we touchy!!

Try for a permanent cleanse. Lemon in warm water 1st thing in the morning and throughout the day ;) . and ...just eliminate the crappy food. I know its not always possible but follow the routine.

As other have said, take baby steps and eliminate processed sugar foods one by one. First priority, "Don't have them in the house" 2. Eliminate for the health benefits eg sodas which removes calcium from your body. 3. Start reducing your sweetener intake ie use 1-spoon where you had 2-spoons before. You will find that it…

Two choices: Let yr sister know shes only allowed to bake once a month, at which time you can indulge moderately and carry the rest to work for yr colleagues or; eat to yr hearts delight and work it back off!!........O the pain of temptation!! Shun the very appearance of evil :) :D

LOL!! Gospel!!

I'm up for that. Count me in :)

A lifestyle change will not only cause weight loss but can reverse many of the diseases that we carry including diabetes. Check this out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pjkC71exKU

It is advisable that you do not go overboard when you resume eating. I generally have something warm/hot first then a meal after. A one day fast does not require any drastic change in your eating habits. if however you do more than one day then you will break it with light foods, eg juice soup etc then fruit then gradually…

Hi Naturallyaloe, Welcome to MFP. You're at the right place. You can add me as a friend. All the best.

Previously Lipton green tea but these days I just squeeze lemon in my hot water with honey to taste or without :wink:
