  • I am doing it and seem to be on the slow loss path but that's ok. Easiest "diet" I have ever been on. Went from being addicted to sugar to no cravings immediately. Played with my head a bit since I am late 50's and never been able to leave sugar before. Cholesterol wise, lots of folks see an increase in Ldl and Hdl but…
  • Well, I am doing a cleanup of all my groups, etc. Since this one is going nowheres I am outta here.
  • Is anyone even interested in this group anymore? No one posts and I would have thought with Season 9 there would be ALOT to talk about. Haven't seen last night's episode "Blade Runner" yet since our station was pre-empted by the Illinois Election Results. Have it DVR's since they ran it at midnight but didn't have time…
  • This! To start don't try to do everything all at once, you will get so overwhelmed that you will shut down. Tackle 1 thing at a time. You decided what it is. Maybe it's eating a healthy breakfast and walking in place during the commercials. Once you have that done, decided what is next, add 1 thing at a time and remember,…
  • I would read info from Dr. Mark Hyman who wrote a bunch of books, primarily the Blood Sugar Solution and the10 day detox. Also Read Grain Brain by Dr. Perlmutter. It may shed some light on other avenues to pursue also. They both are proponents of GF but also look at other things too. Might help and couldn't hurt. I have…
  • I prefer to use the term "uneducated" instead of dumb and lazy. Not everyone is as smart as you are obviously.
  • Before surgery check out an integrative doctor such as one that does what Dr. Mark Hyman does. I tried and tried to lose weight, heavy lifted, logged everything that went into my mouth so on and so on. Then I had some blood testing done that identified food intolerances for me. This is different than allergies, they are…
  • I think it is harder just because too many years of not doing what is right and healthy catch up with us. I am 55 and have tried for a couple of years to lose weight with no luck. Found a great alternative meds. dr. who is now helping me to get my body healthy again and the weight is coming off as a side bet! I have always…
  • I had blood testing done (Igg) to test for food sensitivities which is different than allergies. Bad part, not recognized by insurance so you have to pay for it yourself, pretty pricey but so glad I did it. Had to remove at least 28 foods from my diet that caused me problems and most of them I was eating every single day.…
  • Feel free to look at my diary/. I have lost almost 10 lbs in the last 5-6 weeks. I will send you a friend request.
  • I was addicted to sugar and then I came under the care of a dr. for pre-diabetes and food sensitivities. From the moment I walked out of her office the first time I have not had sugar or sweets of any kind, except fruits. It's important to keep your blood sugar level and I eat something good (nothing processed) every 3…
  • New info that just came out. Spinoff is supposed to be set in Chicago!! New premiere date for SPN is October 8th
  • Bought the new TV Guide for Comic Con with Jared on one side and Jensen on the other!
  • All berries, apples, pears, bok choy is really good, celery, cinnamon, turmeric, ginger. All these have anti-oxidant properties. I have a nutribullet that I use every morning and it blends everything up great. Sometimes I add 1/2 avocado or 1/2 sweet potato or squash, try pumpkin. Sky's the limit as far as really good…
  • 1.5 cps unsweetened almond milk Handful of Kale Handful of Spinach 1/2 cucumber celery cacao powder cinnamon, 3 shakes turmeric, 1 shake 1/2 lemon 1/2 orange Whatever else I can find to put in it that has anti-inflammatory properties
  • I loved it, can't wait for next week. There is just one thing I am confused about. How did Sam know to leave his girlfriend and dog and go to the cabin? Did I miss something in the opening segment?
  • I didn't know you can link it to Endomondo. If you have it linked to MFP already, what is the benefit of linking it to Endomondo? I am really interested. Thanks,
  • Go on the fitbit website and at the bottom of the page is product manual. That is the entire manual and it explains step by step how everything on the fitbit works. It's very enlightening. Also, I don't know if I read this right but it sounds like you are entering your food into fitbit? If I am right, you should still be…
  • Did you sore knees start after you bought your new shoes? If so, I agree with the other poster about getting new shoes. My knees got a lot better after I changed my shoes plus I take The Vitamin Shoppe Bio-Cell Collagen. After I started taking it the soreness reduced. If I don't take it for a couple of days I notice a…
  • I think as our kids grow, they are so technologically driven, we will see more ebooks and less real books, except for maybe classics.
  • Berwyn, then Naperville which was all snobs and now Western Edge of Aurora/Sugar Grove. We keep moving west.
  • I am 53 and the mother of a 17 year old. I was in the hospital the morning of my 36th Birthday and she waited 2-1/2 days. I was happy about that since she would have hated to have the same birthday. It's good because now the focus is always on her birthday and not how old I am getting. I went into menopause at 42, stopped…
  • Where did you get your bumper sticker?
  • My daughter's favorite quote is "driver picks the music, shotgun shuts his cake hole", as spoken from Dean to Sam!! She is making a sticker to put on her glove box and it's the 1 rule in her car. Nothing like SPN fans!!
  • Ask about half hour strength training sessions and do the cardio yourself. That way your cost per session will be manageable and you will be able to stretch out your money.
