Hey Beautiful PPL,
So its been a whole year today! Wow...truly amazing and blessed. 80lbs down, 9 months pregnant....happy, healthy, and loving life. This is definately the best/smartest thing I have ever done for myself. For those of you on the fence about it, go for it....you will NOT regret it

I use the grape Tomato (thinner skins or the roma tomato also I use english cucumbers since there are virtually no seeds in them

I was watching beach volleyball today, there was a wrist injury.

I use ground chicken breast for anything that calls for beef. I find I to be more forgiving than turkey, and soaks flavor better. IMO. Emilybites rocks!

When I started taking pictures and comparing before shots is when I noticed. Then I did a fashion show with old clothes that could no longer fit. And finally I went to the grocery store and my student didn't recognize me and that was at 2.5 weeks post-op!

Awsome job cant wait until I can tell my success story.

I've done P90X a couple times. It is intense - however you can tailor it to you & your level. I didn't even bother with the fit test. If you can't do pushups on your feet do them on your knees, if you can't do pull-ups yet you can use the bands attached to your door.
I think it's totally worth it. I've done the program on 1200 calories/day - but I was wondering about doing it on so few calories, but again you can tailor it to your fitness/energy level. Tony Horton has low impact or modified moves for almost everything. So I do recommend the program if you're interested in really working hard. His Power 90 is a pretty good workout as well.

Thats just awsome!!

Lol!! You can have a side of a cardiologist with the pork rinds!!!!! I'm almost 8 weeks out, and I get my salt/crunch fix with Claussen pickles...yum!!

Saw this Chobani Greek Yogurt Conversion Chart for use in replacing butter, mayo, oil, etc. in recipes. I plan to try it and wanted to share with y'all.

Hi Everyone,
I received a print out of various recipes from my doctor's office this week and thought I would share them. See attached.

I am 3month out and i have loss 67 lb and feel good

Ok, Im not sleeved yet. But love to cook and experiment. I found if you soak wonton wrappers for a few minutes they make a perfect sub for lasagna Pasta. I made this a couple nights ago:
1lb ground chicken or turkey
8 wonton wraps
3/4 cup ff cheese (I used jalapeno jack)
1 10oz can enchalada sauce
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 chopped jalapeno (cored)
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 small avacado
Plain greek yogurt
Preheat oben to 375.
Brown meat (drain if needed) add onions, jalapeno and cilantro and 1/2 of the enchalada sauce. Soak wontons in a bowl of Water while this cooks for about 10 mins.
Spray small baking dish w/ nonstick spray. (I used a small 6x6)
Carefully layer bottom with 4 wontons with slight overlap. Add a layer of meat mixture, sprinkle with cheese, repeat. Top off with remaining sauce and cheese
Bake in oven approx 20 min or until cheese is bubbly and beginning to brown.
Top with small amount chopped avacado and a dab of plain greek yogurt.
This makes 4 servings for nonsleeved folk.
With ground chicken:
278 cal, 28 Protein (this is calced with a nonsleeve serving)
Sorry no pic..it was a pretty dish and very good..but my son left nothing for the camera. : /

All you are taking in are liquids. liquids in, liquids out.
As soon as you start with full liquids, this will start to change, and as you move along - it will probably be the opposite problem. When you get to solids, things should normalize.
Be prepared to just roll with the flow (literally)....

Awsome job cant wait until I can tell my success story.

I haven't heard about that game specifically, but my boyfriend has an Xbox Kinect, and it is a greattttt way to exercise! I was sweating after just a few minutes! I say go for it (:

I have decided to become a coach on Beachbody. I am super excited to do this. I hope people want to follow me on my journey or better yet join me. To sign up is free. All you have to do is click this link https://www.teambeachbody.com/signup/-/signup/free?referring RepId=173483 There are people on there including myself who support each other working out. I would love to coach people along their journey. I hope people join and I see everyone there. I also have a blog if people would like to follow along. Thank you so much. IF you have any questions please feel free to contact me. I had surgery 6/4/12 and I was recently released to start working out. So I thought I would become a coach at the same time.

It is very intense! You might want to google the fit test and see If you can do it. If you can't, try Power 90. It is the lowest level of Beachbody.

I for one say that the NO STRAWS "rule" is total BS! Sorry, had to say it. If you take note of how you drink form a straw you will notice that you suck a column of liquids up into your mouth with very little to NO air, perhaps exhale a bit through your nose then swallow the liquid. In fact I would wager to say you get more air by drinking straight from a glass than with a straw.

you will dcmak.
