Juicing - Recipe Request
I've recently started juicing and so far I've only been drinking the Green Detox Juice blend. I want to replace two meals per day with natural juices so if anyone has any recipes (with fruit/vegetable portions and calorie counts) that they can share, that would be great! Also, has anyone had any weight-loss success by…

I know many of you will not want to answer this because the question might be too vague in your eyes but I'm just looking for some general opinions - I plan to incorporate weight lifting/training/exercises into my routine this week and I'm wondering if you might have some recommendations for actual weight amounts and…

Staying Motivated
I've changed my diet and exercise (finally) and been consistently on track since January 1st. However, I've hit this place in the journey where I'm struggling to stay motivated and focused with the scale slowing down and my energy starting to lag. I exercise at home and in addition, recently joined a gym. I'm not bored…

I know this isn't a balanced way to go but I suppose I feel I'd rather eat more at dinner (and have something to look forward to), than "waste"…

Reverse Anorexia & Avoiding the Mirror
I'm disappointed that I've waited so long to get this diet going. I feel like I'm finally on the right track with eating, portions, moderation and I'm ready to incorporate the physical activity. However, I have a good 50+ pounds to lose, though 50 is my current goal. I didn't realize just HOW BIG I'd gotten until I saw my…

Smoothies/Shakes As Meal Replacements?
Just got a new blender but I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or recipes for smoothies or shakes you make at home, that don't thwart weight loss. Do smoothies work? I'm not really big on protein shakes or anything like that. I'm on 1,200 calories per day and I'm looking for something as a meal replacement.…
