I am going shopping tomarrow for my veggies and everything. Can't wait to finally start this! I love reading everyone's posts! Thanks for the inspiration guys!
..... There is a drink called MIO, you squirt it in water, its yummy. There are no cal, no carb, no sugars, no fat. Anyone else tried it? Haven't been in the 170's for 4 years, I am so excited!
I love Mio. I use some of the berry/pom in my crispy rice cereal, I like to mix the sweet tea and orange, I will also add some lemon juice to the sweet tea. What I'm really looking forward to doing is making a smoothie with the vanilla pudding and adding some of the orange...I'm thinking it will taste like a dreamsicle.

MMMMM, that's a great idea!! We don't have Mio in Canada so I will have to pick up orange next trip across the border!
I have thunder thighs also. My unofficial weigh in this week is down another 5lbs, but I've only lost 1 inch in my thighs. I just assumed that since it's my trouble area, that would be the last place I would see the most results.Mine is definately genetics! Presonally, I'm just happy I'm loosing weight and inches and seeing a difference in my body!
Mamacitaof2,
I just noticed you began 2 days before Christmas! Kudos to you!! Yes, I love the difference I notice and the feeling of "skinnier" and I know I will always be curvy. It is just a wait and see I guess. Just wondered what results others before us have had. It will be interesting hearing.

The peach mango is my favorite! Give it a try. It's like $3.49 or so, but you can get 20 drinks out of it. Good buy. My fiance' really likes it, he's not a regular or diet soda drinker.
I know this isn't weight loss related but I just need to vent a second lol. :P
Work is really getting on my nerves. I work from home for a local educational company and I work through their website & over the phone. Okay, so I get a text from my "boss" telling me I needed to get this work done ASAP that I had just gotten, so I get up today & I'm working on it, only to find out they're going to have to redo the whole webpage document that I was working on because *they* messed up. Basically I've wasted almost 4 hours on something that I'm going to get to redo............annoyed. I know I get paid for it, but STILL. I have to redo all of it, just aggravated.
everyone is making me jealous talking about MIO, I wish Canada would get some in...I wonder if you can order it online??? going to check that out.
Glad to send you some if you'll pay me back! I will get some in the mail Friday if you want to try it! Shouldn't cost much to send it in a little envelope.
I have my first weight in this morning, I am pretty excited!!
IKP888 - let me know if you can order it online, I would be interested in trying it as well.
I have had a good week. Veggies are still my tough spot, I need to spend some time reading recipes and trying new things. We had asparagus the other night and hubby and daughter both liked it, that is one that I have never cooked. Maybe I can get some recipes from my coach today.

Hi Renewing Myself, From my personal experience, veggies do get easier! I like to keep it simple...but this may not work for you as you're feeding others. I keep my veggies to one per meal and will roast 2 cups (measured raw) turnips, or broccoli. (I was just told by my coach to watch the browning / carmelizing of the turnips as it brings out the sugars.) I eat two cup (again, measured raw) sauteed spinach. And for quick on the go things I usually have celery stalks in the fridge. These are my current veggie staples...boring, yes for some, but for me, it's working. So, just get into a groove and stick with it. I had been eating kale chips non-stop and way more than 2 cups cooked! I got sick of them, and I'm on a kale chip break...but when I was eating them they were delicious!
