Help me!
My motivation is incredibly lacking. I leave work most days more tired than when I came in. (And I go in at 6:45 am) I work in surgery so I am on my feet about 7 hours a day, mostly staying in one spot, and can be there for hours at a time. Pretty much, by the time I sit in my car, I'm a goner and all my energy is gone.…

Shredz
Has anyone tried and had problems with this program? I started the supplements on Monday (two days ago) and both yesterday and today I seem to stay nauseated and I've been very tired in the afternoon. So tired, in fact, that I've been coming home and napping everyday after work. What gives?

already made protein shakes vs protein powder
So I'm wondering if already made protein shakes are actually good for you or is it better to get a protein powder? I usually get the EAS Carb Control already made shakes. It's like $5 for 4 in my local Walmart. It's fairly cheap and there aren't any carbs or sugar but still tastes good. Does anyone have a protein powder…

Well some nights I get home too late to cook so I usually want something quick and easy for supper and lunch the next day so I tend to buy Lean Cuisines and lately Kashi frozen and…

Fruits
Why is it fruits have so many carbs and sugar? It's ridiculous. I'm constantly over everyday because of fruit. Is it just me or is this everybody? And is it acceptable to be over in those since the source is fruit? Help!

I could use some help...
So frustrated! I'm wanting, actually wanting to cook healthy foods but everything I've looked up so far seems hard and I am quite domestically challenged. I need some easy to cook, healthy foods. Oh, and it's just me so the less servings the better! Thanks!

greek yogurt
I've recently started eating Greek yogurt rather than regular yogurt lately but I also noticed that when I buy the kind with fruit on the bottom the sugar is so ridiculous. I've decided that buying plain Greek and adding to it will be better than buying the kind with fruit on the bottom, however I was wondering which is…

Attempting Clean Eating
I'm a bridesmaid in a wedding that takes place in October of this year. I just picked up my bridesmaid dress yesterday and it was a little tighter than it should have been which was scary and made me realize no time is better than the present to really crack down on losing some weight and eating a little better. I've…

no time to exercise
I swear I have no time to exercise. I work in surgery and I work 10 hour shifts. I'm on my feet all day and when I get home I have some housework to do and supper to fix.

Let's try this yet again!
I did this last year at the beginning of the year and did really great. Lost almost 20 pounds. Now I've gained half of them back so now I'm back to take on those 10 pounds and the rest I was supposed to lose. I have so many things to keep me motivated so hopefully I can stick to it. Living in the South I definitely plan to…

I'm back again...
I can honestly say its been about two months since I've exercised and my diet is pretty half assed when it comes to eating healthy. I started a new job where I'm there at 6:00 am and I'm home by 3:00 pm so once I'm home, and finally off of my feet, all I want to do is take a nap. I'm extremely tired and have no energy. I…

Man, I feel good!
First, I started off my day with a mani/pedi. Second, I had an interview at the hospital I want to work at and it went great! Then I went walk around my apartment complex for about 20 minutes and THEN came home and did Slim in 6. I couldn't feel better about my productive day. Now its time to shower then eat some spaghetti…

low sodium/low sugar
Both diabetes and hypertension runs on both sides of my family and at 23 I'd like to start early with monitoring my intake. I do little things like eat sugar free jello or I'll drink some crystal light to watch my sugar intake but when it comes to watching my sodium I'm pretty clueless. I was wondering if there was any…

need advice...
I am fairly young, 23, and a full time student in clinicals. I get up way too early to exercise in the morning and by the time I get home my feet and knees hurt too bad to do anything.
