eggs, egg whites, cheese, chicken, regular oatmeal, protien shakes...

mine is private and i don’t care for anyone to tell me how to eat or that I am not eating enough, or not eating my exercise calories etc. unless i ask for advise i don’t want it. i hate when people push what they are doing on to others, and if you are doing something different they have something to say about it. plus i…

I agree, the shakes are not filling.... and you could have much more filling food for the 200 calories in the shakes!! I combine a protien and carb for all meals... like oatmeal, egg whites, fruits, yogurts, cheese, broccoli, veggies, chicken, etc. Its very satisfying for about 200-300 calories per meal.

That is great.... I dont have anything to corect other than "hormones" I was just in a rut of bad moods and emotional roller coaster... and then the whole eat protien with your fruit/carbs thing made so much sence about the insulin thing!!! it amazes me too... i try not to talk too much about things because i dont like…

LOL... i got it based on one of the other books i previewed on amazon... seriously makes it SOOOOO easy !!!! just read the lable and combine!! LOL !!!! LOVE IT!!

I didnt read this book entirely, i read some of the insulin resistance, zone, the formula (my favorite) and some of this book on amazon.com. The whole concept makes sence and i love it and its something i feel i will continue forever... not just while losing weight... when i add back more calories i will still be "linking…

@ DeannaGarcia You basically pair 40% Carb (good carbs) / 30% Protien / 30% fat with every meal for a balance that regulates your blood sugar so your hormones and everything back in balance and you dont have spikes from carbs they are digested slower when you pair it. It works out to about 9g carbs, 7g protein, 3g fat…

K... i havent read the book, i have just been studing the 40/30/30 meaks concept and fell in love with it.

ok.... i just checked to make sure and YES!!! this is the type of diet i am following since the end of last week... it is like the zone/ glycimic index/ insulin resistance style diet. I must say that i have a purpose to each meal i plan!! And i feel so much more positive and menally clear since starting to this way just a…

I read some of the book on amazon.com... is it a 40/30/30 diet? That is what I have just recently decided to follow based on the hormone/insulin/balanced diet stuff i have read lately.

Yes I believe Truvia has Stivia and a added Sugar Alcohol in it.

@summersmi "Put the scale away and schedule a day to weigh in every two weeks or so. The scale is not allowed to come out of the cabinet until that day. If you find yourself still thinking about it all the time find a hobby that takes your mind off of it, remember your weight loss is a way of life not your entire life"…

at least im not the only one that gets upset about 1 lb... my bf thinks i am insane!!

Yes!!!!! I honestly feel like i have a disorder now... i have lost 40 lbs and want to loose 5-15 more...... and have never been so depressed about it!!! NOT EVEN 40 LBS AGO!! I am trying my hardest to hide my scale from myself, LOL..... at least for a while so i dont get so depressed because i seriously weigh every day,…

That song is on my ipod !!

never weight at night!! weigh after you wake up, go to the bathroom, unclothed and before you eat or drink anything!!

i agree with what you eat has more impact than exercise. EDIT- BUT i have read that 2 groups of people who lost the same amount (one group diet and exercise, the other just diet)... that the group that exercised and continued to exercise could eat regularly without regaining the weight back and the group that didn't…

LOL i have all the jillian DVDS- 30 day, banish fat boost metabolism, no more trouble zones, and yoga meltdown. Today was my first time with the yoga, i didnt work up the same sweat as 30 day or BFBM, but it was still challenging. I logged as 30 min general aerobics since it was closer to 200 calories burned vs like 82…

very hard and frustrating, because you have gotten this far and just want it to get there already!!! :laugh:

I also weigh every day (in the morning, after potty, but before anything else). I am constantly disappointed as well and hate that I do it, but i am too afraid not to weigh and gain weight again.

Based on the wrist thing, i then would be small framed (although, i think of very small, short, skinny girls when i say "small framed" though, and that i am not). Also my ring size is only 4.5 but i have large thighs :cry: (ugg). Also I guess that since i am unhappy with my body still than i could lose more. I have gone…

i just see so many people at 110-125 lbs that i envy ... maybe they are shorter??? i dont know... maybe ill just never be happy!!

well i have pretty small wrists and hands etc, so i would lean towards small/medium frame size... and i am currently below my pre pregnancy weight, but i hate my thighs sooo much!!! wish it would all just go away from there. Ive been doing Jillian Michaels dvds for 6-7 weeks straight, but those inner thighs are still not…

I usually drink 3-4 liters per day, I think its ok

yes it sucks!!! ive been stuggling with the last 10 lbs, to get to 135!!! almost there, but seems like such a long haul!!

this week, for the first time, i went over my sodium amount, by eating a can of soup (i do not regularly eat and im usually under). The next day i was a full lb over the day before's weigh!! (i weigh daily). I expected it though, after realizing how much sodium was in it. I did an all protein day yesterday and went down…

bump, you go girl!!! :bigsmile: You are in great shape and always offer great FREE advice!

i ONLY make my own at home now, since every place is such high cal. I have an espresso maker (walmart $40 or so), i ground starbucks espresso beans for it (any grocery store) $10 for the whole bag or less!! then i use 1 cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk, and a little stivea, lots of ice. and i have a 40 calorie latte…

i have read MANY MANY MANY times that AT FIRST you will loose more weight on a high protein carb restricted diet due to WATER WEIGHT LOSS but that in the long run it is no more successful than anything else out there. ( i believe its on web md and Mayo clinics website also... if you google it there are many articles on it,…
