  • I do smoothies too.. I made this morning's with nothing but fruit and could not drink the darn thing till I got to work and added some WATER to loose the sweetness some... I normally and will go back to it I do the kale ones I love them. I mix up a large amount and have them when I'm craving junk. :) I don't measure much…

  • Don't know anything about that "diet" but drastic normally doesn't work for long term. I'd suggest more water more veggies and fruit and less packaged food or fast food (not saying you do any of this just general stuff). I don't count calories MFP does it all for me I just input what I eat and it's pretty easy. I just have…
  • If you don't eat fruit do you eat all veggies? If not where do you get your vit and minerals?
  • when I want to get rid of water gain I drink a ton of water and I lose more weight. I try to run/exercise for 2-3 weeks then for one week I eat real healthy and no exercising to get the scale moving again. I'm not suggesting that but it works for me. I do suggest at least a gallon of water a day. More if you can get it in.
  • I've taken it before and it does work to HELP but I couldn't keep my funds going to that so I had to go back to doing it the harder way. :sad:
  • I only officially weigh once a week but sometimes I will jump on to see if anything is changed but I don't track it and don't have a very good memory and so 20 minutes later I'm wonder was it a 6, 8 or 2. I believe God is protecting me from myself with my memory issues.. lol
  • just an option... you can make it a fruit and veggie day and take along all kinds of both.. apples, cut up oranges, canned pineapple, grapes, carrots, celery, grape/cherry tomatoes, pea pods, even soy beans that start frozen and let defrost as the day goes and peel and pop, I'm sure there are more veggies that are finger…
  • ditch them both!!!!
  • Just my thoughts.... Calories is calories and your body will process each differnet. It would depend for me what would fill me up the donut will taste good in my mouth but will it have ... Fiber, protein, healthy carbs, sodium, any vitimans at all... vs. the milk may be high in calories it will have a lot more benifits to…
  • I was going by MFP and was not really doing so well so I started this week going by my FB to see if that helps. I am not sure how you can make up the late night burn but I have only been in the "zone" once but I kinda think if I am under I'm ok still I'll just lose at a faster pace hopefully. Does anyone have in idea's on…
  • First thank you for yours or you husbands service:flowerforyou: Second can only suggest and even my 14 year old chimed in recently... NO one really wants to see booty cheeks coming out the bottom of your shorts no matter how skinny you are. Had 2 skinny girls this past Saturday in front of us and we both turned the other…
  • I drink water while jogging and either eat an apple before or during but not all time. Only a small amount of water before i do a video.
  • I do a lot of fiber one products and check out sweet potatoes and celery I think they both have a lot of fiber. I'm almost sure someone once told me to know about fiber if you freeze it and it still looks basically the same it has a high content of fiber. (fruit and veggies, not processed foods or meats). The fiber one…
  • I'm glad you ask this question I want to start it in July I won't have time to commit before then and I am trying to get my shoulder in good working order before I start a major insane workout like this. I am somewhat scared from the post that the weight didn't drop as well as the inches but I'm sure that will be fine once…
  • I have the fitbit One and love it I ALWAYS have it on day and night. Only it doesn't like water so no swimming or showers.
  • You have encouraged me.. thank you.. I changed scales yesterday and by the new scale had gained 2 pounds and was super bummed but I'm going to go with what you said if I look in the mirror and smile I'm good for today. Thank you.
  • Love my fitbit one and never leave home without it. I've been careful not to wash it though. :happy: I like the friendly compatition that happens on there with your friends you can see their steps and try to out do them or encourage them or chat with them.
  • I did 2.6 or 7 miles this morning and plan to do a video this evening and if it isn't raining I'll do at least half mile at lunch but most likely a mile.
  • I try to do crafts, read and lately I try to put my headphones in listen to my Bible and walk like a nut on my treadmill.
  • I like how you set daily goals and I think I'm going to do that it might be easier to stay on track.
  • I like the island reward but that is out for me. I like incgurley have to have something that I won't drop when money is no where to be seen. I think I'll add the movie in and take something else out. I'm not sure what I'll flip but I think a date night with a movie and my own rice cakes is better than thier popcorn but it…
  • Mine is when I get home from work I'm cooking and wanting a fast fix. So grab junk... I've since started putting out carrot chips and salsa or an apple on the way home helps and that is helping me MOST days.

  • I made it almost half way but I'm going to leave the group until my shoulder heals I'm going to have to work the lower half not using the shoulder and funny where I never knew a leg lift would use my shoulder IT DOES it uses everything I think. I'll try to keep the crunchs going but will have to see how that affects the…
  • I had to skip todays due to illness I'll try tonight if I'm feeling better but when you skip do you just make it up on the rest days and would that me to hard on your body?
  • I don't know why many people along the way say they loved different ones... I hated these I thought I was gonna be sick when I was finished... I really don't like the toe taps I thought BEFORE I did them yeah finally an easy one... NO... they are straight from Hell... (my workout Marine son said that me feeling sick is a…
  • Thank you so much... I'm getting ready for 5 am ... last time I watched the videos just before bed I dreamed about them till I got up at 1am and did one set to see if I could do them. :noway:
  • The only one that looks somewhat like what I did yesterday was the v crunch thing... Please post tomorrows (4/11) today I do them at 5 am on the day you have them listed.
  • I've been searching in google most come up with you tube stuff but some I get from other sites that google shows. The flutter kicks were not on my list that day until after I had done my exercises so I didn't do them I do mine at 5am and I do what is there the day before and then go look them up the night before and do…
  • Is anyone logging the exercise in MFP and if so I'm not finding most of them and even when I do it doesn't give me any calories burned and burn I can feel when I was done and well all day so far, deep breathing causes burn right now. :ohwell:
