  • I have done this! Did not know the actual name. It does work for me. I think it is all about confusing your body into not staying comfortable in a zone. There have been many times where I would eat just below my daily goal, and then on a holiday weekend or if we went out to dinner, I would eat more than I had in a long…
  • If you are under your alotted calories, eat about half of what it says you are under for. Alos, I have found it a good idea to track your TOTAL week calories and then see if you may have some room at the end of the week to eat a little over that day. Your body tends to get confused when you do that. I can't tell you how…
  • speaking of burpees, why is there no mention of them on this site? WOuld like to log them in if I could!
  • TOTALLY. I lost 55lbs and someone asked me if I felt skinny yet. I do not know what that is supposed to feel like. I feel a disconnect with my body, and I think that is why I was overweight for so long. I did not feel fat either. I went from a size 14 to 6. The only thing that makes me believe that I do look different is…
  • abstainer mostly. I tend to be all or nothing. (it's why I got fat!) Lost 50 lbs since last May by sticking to my plan and allowing some treats in moderation on Thanksgiving and Christmas! And few days here and there.....
  • I was not eating my exercised calories for a long time. And whenever I did eat them, I lost weight. Now over the holidays I stuck to the calories, upped my exercise and all that happened was I maintained and even gained a few pounds. A week ago, I decided to up my calories goal, and now I have lost a pound. Makes no sense…
  • I have that everyday in my smoothie! Yum! I started using oatmeal flour though because the Ninja wasn't grinding the oats as fine as I'd like. Here is my fav. recipe 1/4 c. oats 1 tbsp flax 1 scoop protein powder (van or choc) 1 tbsp peanut butter 1 frozen banana 1 cup water blend till smooth. serves 1
  • Me too. I have always looked younger than my age, but now that I lost 45lbs my face is more aged looking. It annoys me, but I'd rather be healthy.
  • Smoothies!!!!! No dairy. Use water or coconut water. Frozen berries and bananas (can be frozen) really are enough sweetener. Try different recipes. Add flax seed too if you can. (Or chia seeds). They are addicting and filling.
  • going through the SAME pain. really sucks. All I can find is, ice and rest. It is a common runners ailment. Especially when you up the distance. I also read that it is caused by weaker thigh muscles and also stride or how we land on our feet. I have had this knee pain for 2 weeks now. Had a fractured toe and was walking on…
  • i believe that is raw. Makes about 1 cup cooked.

  • One avocado. 1 tsp cumin. Chili powder to taste, Lime juice, salt and pepper to taste. You can add salsa too, but I like it simple!
  • I noticed I haven't been getting the tell tale migraine right before I start! Back pain is minimal too. Still feel slightly crampy, but that is better than a headache! Plus i am irregular and need to have some sort of clue to give me a heads up.
