I think it depends entirely on your body. I usually take mine in the a.m. sometimes before breakfast, sometimes after. But when I have taken them at night I haven't had any problems or perceived extra benefits.

SUCCESS!!! You look amazing! Way to go!

Thanks for responding folks!!

Nicely done:) Keep up the good work!

I've been toying with the idea of opening mine up and still haven't...still mulling it over...I don't know exactly why I feel so private about it...

Welcome back! I have a little guy who keeps me very busy also. I'm currently doing Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred because the workouts are an intense 20 min so I can squeeze one in while he naps. If for some reason he doesn't nap---I make a game of doing sit-ups and push-ups with him and we go strolling day. Don't forget…

Hi-Could be age. Could be what you're eating. Once you start logging your foods you may get a clearer picture about what's causing your jiggle in the middle. Good luck!!!

Love that you posted this story!!! What a wonderful feeling. I'm happy for you:) Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing that happy moment.

You do YOU and I'll do ME. I'm quite happy with my life, thanks!

I'm on day 3 level 1 and my butt and quads are really tight and sore. I expected my upper body to hurt much more.

You're probably not doing anything "wrong". Be patient with your body. sounds like you're doing well. You maybe increasing muscle mass from exercising which will temporarily slow your weight loss,(muscle weighs more than fat). If that is the case you weight loss will kick in soon. Check your measurements you may have lost…

Check out the website Body For Life for a great list of lean proteins, complex carbs and healthy fats. It has really helped me in making healthier choices. Feel free to…

Feel free to add me for support :) since you're about 6 weeks into your lifestyle change and came up depressed in the last 2 weeks-I'd make extra sure that you're getting enough b vitamins...Maybe take a multi-vitamin if you're not and omega 3 via fish, walnuts, almonds, flax or supplements is great for depression. Hang in…

Hey all- Just completed Day 1 of my shred journey!!!

Hi- I'm a mom to an 11 month old and I'm working to taking off the extra lbs that are still hanging on. This site is really helpful for keeping track. To add more water, try to drink a glass or 2 every time you give the children a drink. Good Luck!!!

I'm actually going through this with my 13 yr old also (whenever they tighten the braces) we resort to some of these healthy options: Low fat cottage cheese hummus avocado mango watermelon baked or boiled sweet potato beans quinoa or rice Good Luck! Hope you feel better

Hi I'm also new here and I'm also trying to lose baby weight.
