Starting your day with protein!
We all know protein is an important part of your diet. It is a building block for bone, muscle, cartilage, skin and blood. It's important to listen to your body, know the times you are hungriest and incorporate protein into those times! I get the evening munchies, so I try to use protein twice in the day and twice at…

Water, help I am floating away!
Oh water, how we love you! Remember, drink half your body weight in ounces of water daily! I know it's tough but water is important for us! Try sprucing it up with lavender, rosemary or frozen fruit! Any other favorite water tricks?

30 Day Shred - Please Share Your Success and Failure Stories
Hey all, was hoping to hear your 30 Day Shred stories for some different success and failure perspectives. I started Level 1 for the first time and am on Day 4 today.

Traveling for Work - What do you eat?
I travel a lot for work and am interested to hear from others who also travel on what you do to discipline yourself while traveling. What do you eat? There are so many menu choices that half the time I don't know what to order, because you never know how the food has been prepared!

It Finally Happened
Yesterday, in a crowd of 20 people I see once a month for a meeting, one of them came up to me after and said "have you been losing weight" I said "Yes, thanks for noticing, you just made my day!". They then told me not to go overboard : ) Have you had this happen yet and if you did how great did it make you feel?

Zumba Fitness for PS3
I was just wondering if anyone has tried the Zumba PS3 game yet? I just bought it on Amazon and am waiting for it to arrive. The feedback about it on Amazon was mixed, but a lot of people had good things to say about it. I thought it would be a good first attempt at Zumba since I have never done it and would feel way more…

Loathe the scales at the Doctor office!
Why is it that all scales at the Doctor add on an extra 10 lbs? I know that clothes and shoes account for some of that weight, but it is frustrating to see such differences in home scales versus those at the doctors!

New Member.....Any Advice?
Hi Everyone. My name is Holly and I am looking to lose about 8 pounds. One thing I am having a hard time with is keeping the amount of protein and carbs within the requirements. Things that I love, like fish for example, make the protein number high! I have a ton of vegetables in my diet, but would love to hear your ideas…
