Congrats Jodi! That is awesome!

I'm back at work. The last two days have been crazy but I have stayed OP.

Jumping in to the thread to say Hi! I joined during the Xmas in July special and am just now getting OP. Today is my first full day with HNS drinks and I'm slowly adding in supplements to see how I react to them.

Congratulations to the losers! It is nice to see the scale go down...

I know what you guys mean about vacation. I struggled alot after going to Yellowstone last month and am just now getting back on track. I'm still struggling with stress but it's something I need to learn to do long-term as it has such a negative impact on me, my sleep and my weight loss.

This week should iron itself out with the kiddos going back to school and such...

Cmarty - I try to do some type of activity at least 5-6 days per week. I usually alternate between the elliptical and Zumba... trying to get in at least 4 1-hour Zumba classes per week. For me, I just need that extra "umph" to keep losing. For me personally, 45 minutes on the elliptical at the "random" setting (for weight loss) and then the 1 hour Zumba for 4-6 days per week seems to do the trick.

But, I agree, any activity and starting small is a great idea. You just need to challenge your body to do what it can and expend those calories!

Congrats Jodi!

I've been pushing off WI after vacation. I'll have to go in tomorrow, but I know I won't be happy. I've been OP since Sunday, but I did some serious damage on vacation.

Just had a nice salad with some grilled Mahi Mahi and a little bit of ginger dressing. Yum!! My new fave dessert is greek yogurt with some syntrax vanilla bean torte protein powder blended in topped with strawberries . If I'm craving a chocolate topping I take 1/3 cookie and cream protein bar and crumble it on top (chocolite brand from diet direct - they are sugar free and only 95 cal. -9g protein). Yummmmmmmmmmy

Those coming off vacation......drink more water than u think possible, step up the HNSs or protein drinks. Try to eliminate all carbs except for fruit for a few days. Then drink even more water and step up the activity Also think
About what a slug you felt like eating all that junk. Lol!!! Can you feel that flat stomach emerging again? Remember that light feeling and being in control ?? Stick with the plan and you will be there again!! The cool thing is the water weight will come off fast and we all know what to do. Yay!

I’m currently on the beige menu and lose 2-3 lbs a week. I’m going to Hawaii in 6 weeks. Any recommendations or tips on how to speed the weight loss up? Also, just curious how much weigh you lose each week and what menu/plan you are on.

Congrats to all the losers so far this week! I weighed in on Monday and lost a pound, and weighed in this morning and lost 1.5 pounds. The scale is definitely moving in the direction I want! It is amazing that once you stick to the plan, the cravings for fatty and sweet foods diminish!

Horrified at WI today. I officially gained 4 lbs over vacation. I hope that most of it is still bloat/water weight and will easily come off. I am giving myself until Tuesday to get back to 180. If that doesn't happen, I'm going to try MetaQuick (although that is a last resort).
