  • I was just referred to this program, but haven't received a call back yet. Do you pay a co-pay every time you go in for your weekly weigh-in? I'm curious how much this is going to wind up costing. Did you get prescribed a Rx from someone at CoreLife?
  • Hi! I'm about 3 weeks in and went from 187t to 178. Even I'm surprised! Are you listening to her podcast daily? Have you talked to your doctor? Keep up with the water- you never know what might be going on inside your body that is blocking your efforts. Are you eating 'from the ground" as she says? I love her commentary,…
  • I'm doing it right now and in love, in control and the stress is melting off with the pounds! I'm 43, and started at 187 about three weeks ago. I weighed in this morning at 178. This morning I was 168!!! I thought I was stuck in the 180's, I was scheduling appt's with my gyno thinking a change of bc would help, as I'm…

  • I'm a Sunday meal prepper and I like to keep lunch under 400. My go to is chili ( turkey or lean ground beef). I use red and black beans. I'm not great about afternoon snacks ( they usually leave my hungry anyways) so I need something filling like chili. I'm in an office so it's easy enough to heat up and doesn't bother…
  • I've been doing chili ( turkey or lean beef) and salads with ( vacuum packed package) tuna. Favorite new dressing I'm hooked on is Marzetti's Simply Dressed Lemon vinagrett! Yum! Favorite new Yogurt ( even though $$) is Too Good brand- super dense and protein packed! But I too am on the hunt for a filling lunch! I'm a…
  • One thing to ponder, that I rarely read about, is what about sensitivity to Progestin? Doctors and other commenters are quick to say you gain weight (only) when you eat too many calories for what your body needs; but I rarely see room for a discussion about water retention due to an allergic reaction or sensitivity to…
  • I am starting to do some research ( on Mirena for a year and I am bloated and cannot seem to even budge 5lbs unless I do severe calorie restriction and do low carbs). Is there a way to test for Progestin intolerance? It seems to be the missing link. When I was on the now discontinued Vesture ( AND LOVING LIFE), I could…
  • Hi there! I just bought the copycat version on Amazon- https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074B3B22G/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza. Yesterday was my first day setting it up and using it. I only put one band on and followed a couple of videos on their youtube. I would get on the link I sent you and ask your question to either the…
  • I just bought this and it works good :) took on my first 5k :) I use the free Endomono app with it ( IOS) https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BWX023E/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  • I started yesterday and by the time I got home, I thought I had morning sickness. I took advil, two cutie oranges and a cup of herbal tea and laid down for a while. Today is better but I'm not sure if this is the plan for me. I'm already messing it up because I just microwaved turkey sausage and ate an apple for that first…
  • interesting- I haven't tried that yet but I have others around me that have. I have use coconut flour though for copycat hick-fil-a nuggets ( legit good).
  • I usually went by the month when I took off my baby weight, but in cases where I need to 'shake a finger' at myself, I will weigh in shortly after the hiccup. I had been down four, so realistically I know that it's no short feet to actually lose or gain a pound of fat. I don't do fad diets, I'm a calories in/calories out…
  • love you guys :) I accounted for the whole 1/2 cup of homemade ranch dip and the Utz ripple chips to go along with! I swear! haha
  • We have an 18 month old- I have to get up at 4:30am to make it happen. There's no other way because of; stairs, remotes, sharp corners, little fingers, sticky fingers, etc. I'm in the Midwest, so maybe once spring roles around I can get out wiht the jogger ( I hope that doesn't mean I have to jog- that looks ridiculous)…
  • I'm not saying this applies to anyone but me, but when I enjoy cocktails and carbs too much, my pouch comes out a little. Also, until you get to where you feel comfortable, a long spandex camisole will help. I had my little one last year and I wore one almost every day. It's good for modesty and smoothing of areas. If it…
  • I solved this with about $50- Soma brand bra's. Not the cutest thing ever but it's the only bra to actually stay up on my shoulder and no bulging anywhere. It does an okay job with concealing ' cold days' at the office. It might be a little tight at first, even with the right measurement, but go ahead pull a no-no and…
  • Zumba! But I just can't make those classes anymore with a little one. They're always right after work :( I did add a kettle bell to my at-home routine though. Found the instructions on fitnessblender.com
  • Decorate our new house- I s*ck at decorating and it's overwhelming to think of all the wall space I need to cover. But it's everything I've asked for so I'm taking one room at a time. I wish we were closer to an Ikea; I've always liked their prints and basics.
  • breakfast sandwich- one egg, one piece of thick canadian bacon, tbsp hummus and an English muffin. I make mine ahead on Sundays and then warm them up at work. - Someone mentioned chili- that's a good one. Turkey chili, just be careful of the spices you use. I was lazy and used a 'chili seasoning' packet from the store-…
  • I'll have to give that gummie a try; I believe I took a gummie last year for my pregnancy. nice little treat ;) I haven't been at it long, about a week. It's actually not as bad as I thought it would be. I set my clothes/shoes up in closet so I don't wake my husband too much. I need to start up the weight training too. I…
  • >:) 800-1000. Yesterday was brought to us by the letter 'B'. 'B' is for bacon, butter and blubber ;)
  • I think the (ice) water will help for sure! I think once the routine sinks in, that will really help also. I wish I was a runner, I attempted c25k a few times so it may be time to revisit that. Thanks everyone :)
  • Many, many moons ago when I was in high school, I was put on the shot-put team because I wasn't fast enough to help out the team otherwise. Towards the end of the season one of the meets included a 4x4 race for non-running track team members such as myself. I got to be the last leg and finished just before the last person.…
  • 800- 1000 over. I tried to get as accurage as I could but I didn't measure how much loaded baked potato soup I had with bacon crumbles and cheddar cheese on top ;) It was good to see though, in a twisted way, because MFP told me what I'd weigh if I continued to eat that way!
  • Fitness Blender is good but being a mom to a one year old and getting up at 4:30am to make it happen, I've started using the sworkit app on either Iphone or Android. It links your work-out to MFP; one less step to do when you're done :) http://www.fitnessblender.com/v/workout-detail/Fitness-Blender-Cardio-HIIT-Workout/ac/
  • I eat the same breakfast every day- english muffin, hummus, one egg and a piece of canadian bacon. It gets me until about 11am. ++Cuties this time of year- perfect sweet treat!++
