  • I'm not currently on HCG, but I plan on doing at least one more round in the next six months or so. It's a really great thing to do when I hit a weight-loss plateau. Thanks for commenting!

  • I just recently found out about Dr.Simeons. I've been eating the approved list my doctor gave me, and green beans are on the list. I have 7 days left in the "program," and I'd really like to transition into a more sustainable way of eating. I'm thinking I will just count calories and resume my high-intensity workouts (that…

  • I weigh on Wednesdays and Saturdays. I do it twice a week because, knowing that I have to weigh myself in 2-3 days makes me less likely to cheat. Also, my worst days for eating are Saturdays. When I weigh myself on Saturdays, it encourages me to keep going... especially if I've lost weight!

  • What a great thread! Of course I have bigger goals, but my immediate small goals are... 1.) I want to do Downward Facing Dog in Yoga without bending my knees. 2.) I want to add weigh-lifting to my cardio workout. 3.) I want to find a go-to snack/meal other than cereal. 4.) I want to have more active fun with my kids…

  • At the beginning of my marriage (when I was much thinner) my husband made only one request of me: to stay healthy. My family has a history of morbid obesity, Type 2 Diabetes, Heart Disease and (of course) early death. My sweet husband wanted (and wants) for me to be healthy and active so that we could raise our children…
