i've never used it...can you get it at any store...ie.walmart, kroger,etc.?

i'm the same way..i still eat the stuff but i plan it into my calories so i don't feel deprived..i tried to cut them out when i started in september but then i would go to the store becuz of a craving sit down and overindulge. so now i just do it in moderation ( restarted in feb.)...i have a treat everyday so i don't get…

i'm 2 lbs. away from 10 lost, just hit 8 today, i still don't see it much yet but my friends and hubby say they can so i go with that. i just can't wait to wear my pre-pregnancy clothes that have been in my closet for almost 4 yrs.:sad: slowly but surely, i haven't been in the 150's in 3 yrs. only 3 more til…

what is the serving size? it sounds yummy...love broccoli...making for dinner! thanx!

hahahaha! Stuart Smiley...haven't heard that in a while...nice:laugh: . Sometimes I'll let myself go a month without looking at the scale...staying on track, but it helps. Good luck! :drinker:

good job!!!:drinker:

I think it's a long john...they aren't round they're long like a sub.right? sounds yummy!:laugh:

you can do it...especially if you hit that goal a month early...there's no stopping you. CONGRATS!!!:drinker: :wink:

SURVIVOR, I LOVE CAMPING, HIKING, KAYAKING......PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING OUTSIDE. BACKPACKING IN THE EXTREMES (MTNS.) LOVE IT!!!!!

HOLY COW!!! CONGRATS, KEEP ON KEEPIN ON...HAPPY LOSING!:drinker:

DO YOU DRINK CAFFEINE? COFFEE? IT'S A DIURETIC, ALSO IF YOUR RETAINING WATER I BELEIVE IT MEANS YOU HAVE TOO MUCH SODIUM IN YOUR BODY SO IT'S TRYING TO HOLD ON TO ALL OF THE WATER, DRINK MORE WATER TO HELP FLUSH YOUR SYSTEM. THERE ARE ALSO HERBAL THINGS YOU CAN TRY IF YOU'RE INTO THAT (I DON'T TAKE SCRIPTS) GOOGLE IT YOU…

hhheeeyyy, way to go, chocolate...yummy! that definitely says a lot, good job!!:drinker:

i don't know about all that.. i was looking at this thread and just wanted to tell you that you kind of look like Bruce Willis in that pic!:tongue:

Any will work, i prefer to do them @ home so i don't look and feel like a dweeb if i fall, when you build up your core you fall less. there are so many out there, i use one by Gaiam but am going to switch soon(old).it's also always cheaper to do DVD's and get weights for the home than a gym membership if $$ is a concern.

welcome fellow texan! there are a lot of people from the lone star state on here(holy cow)! good luck...happy losing!:drinker:

do you snore at night? it can cause you to not sleep restfully due to lack of O2. i have hypothyroidism(slower metabolism) and it causes me to be very tired(nap daily) and lose weight extremely slow, I had it in jr. high and it went away and then went to a thyroid specialist after dr's kept telling me it was fine and she…

A good thing to strengthen your core is pilates.....I think it might be one of the best ways to get it up to par actually... also for belly fat and love handles jogging works really well.. start out slowly in the beginning and add time to it every week. Weight lifting is a good way to burn calories especially when you work…

Walking is a good way to get started... I have the same faltering problem...I don't walk everyday but I try to make sure if I'm not to stay on my feet most of the day, avoid sitting as much as possible(stay at home mom)... good luck....happy losing!:drinker:

good luck... and as far as the gym goes don't sweat it almost anyone there is to busy worrying about themselves to even care about what your doing.....everyone is self-concious about something, that what I tell myself when I go:laugh:

glad your feeling better....congrats on the loss... good luck!:drinker:

i get low fat cottage cheese as well.. and like to snak on nuts and string cheese... it especially helps curb the appetite when you're on the go and not starving.

cleburne, tx, woo woo! :laugh:

I know this will sound weird but also try jell-o, it actually works, you soak your feet for 5-10 minutes and them rinse them off. Don't ask me why but I guess it's not just for snacking anymore!:laugh:

Eat before you exercise (at least 45 minutes before) and then a lite snack shortly after preferably with protein in it as this will also help hold off hunger til lunch, sometimes if I'm rushing to get my workout and food in I just split my breakfast for the before and after. Hope this helps!

Thank you, 23 views and your the only response so far, I appreciate it!:flowerforyou:

I started mission 2 yesterday of Billy Blanks Boot Camp and my back is killing me. I was hoping maybe I could get some advice without going to the doc as far as stretches or light exercises to help with the lower back area (I'm stubborn about docs), I'm going to rest and ice it today but any stretching ideas to loosen them…

lean cuisine, cantaloupe(yummy...my fav) and baby carrots. i do the same thing but it mostly happens on the weekends and my hubby wants to go out to eat with the kids, i kick myself in the butt then go another round beginning Mon. weekends thankfully are getting easier i snack before i go that way i'm not really hungry…

Welcome, good luck and happy losing!:flowerforyou:

Thanx all of you for the help and advice, it's going to be giant step. Out of all the help I received on here I have a game plan and am going to start Mon. I have tp prep for it:huh: Get my last weekend in:laugh: Again thanks all and happy losing.

Exactly!! I just don't see the point in Prescriptions. I smoke at least a pack a day and am trying to slowly ween myself but it's not working, I know if I do it cold turkey that I am going to be horrible to be around so I am just wondering if there's any kind if herbal thing or anything really to help.(other than meds)
