First Core Day

  • Hi! I'm new *waves*

    I am 27 years old, and I have a baby who's almost 6 months old. Time to get back in shape!

    Start: 201.6
    Now: 197.4
    Total: -4.2

    It took me 8 long weeks to get that 4 lb loss. I was really getting ready to give in. The only reason I didn't quit was because I've done WW years ago and lost a lot of weight so I knew it worked if you just stuck to it.

    This week I tried CORE - I was so scared to try it! I only did it half of the week - basically I was doing points, messed up YET AGAIN and was so upset and about to quit and thought you know what - why not give CORE a try? So I did it a few days to see what it was like. I liked it and lost 1.8 lbs for the week.

    So today was my first day fully on the CORE plan and nothing else.
    I feel full, not scared that I've done anything "wrong" and can't wait to see what th rest of the week brings!
  • You know I have been really struggling to lose these last few pounds after dropping so much on the Flex plan that I have been thinking about giving Core a try during the week as best I can and then do Flex on the weekend (we are so social that it would be realy hard for me to do Core on the weekend I think)
  • good luck! im on core also and have lost 27 1/4 lbs
  • Hey, brokendownrage - I'm 27, too :c)

    I would love to know what you guys menus look like.

    Do you mind posting a few days for me? I am sorta confused about how core works. I'd love to see how you guys do it.

    Thanks!

  • I just started core a few days ago. So far, so good. It forced me to get motivated and now there is no turning back!
  • Can you post one of your typical day's menus for me?
  • Breakfast: oatmeal
    Lunch: tuna salad with veggies or soup and salad with FF dressing
    Dinner: Veggies and a meat like skinless chicken breast or maybe fish
    Snacks: Fruit, or something low in points like a WW 1 pt brownie (you still get your 35 flex points to use in a week)
  • Thanks!!! :c)
