What works for you?

[PuraVida37 715]

What is something that is working for you? I don't mean the band itself, I mean like a special meal you like, a routine, an exercise, certain kind of support or motivation.

What's something that you do that's working for you??

I'll start: I love my NutraNinja blender. It makes blah Bariatric Advantage shakes come out like a dream.

Please share!! i need some motivation lately. Thanks in advance.

Having a trainer and group exercise classes have really helped me. Left on my own, I exercise once a week at best. With my trainer, we have a standing appointment that I must show up for. Recognizing what I cannot do on my own and still expect results had made a difference.

Several of us were stalled so we tried the 5:2 or 4:3 interval fasting diet. Justwatch started this thread. Come join us:

5:2 works for me

Hey 2MF! Awesome! 17 lbs?? Wow way to go!

Quest bars! I keep a couple of them in my purse and in my tote bag that I carry with me to work. They have saved me from making bad choices many times when I was out and about or had to work late.

Omg tmf until you said that i didn't realize I've lost 16 pounds on 5:2! It's been a great five weeks!

Oh, and hummus.

I do well with routine things , I think because my work schedule ( retail) is erratic, I crave things that are consistantly the same. ( one reason I visit this site frequently) . Snacks, workouts etc that I dont have to think about just seem to work for me. So, I like Belvita Breakfast Biscuts, turkey jerkey, pb on wheat thins and lots of Propel for my Water intake. Working out ? Swim class 3x a week, and when my heel injury gets better, back to walking and slow running.
