I am a Newbie. I teach and don’t had a lot of time in the morning and during lunch at school. What cereals and prepared meals would be good choices during the week. I think they would make my life easier for breakfast and lunch. Also, what am I supposed to put in the Tags section?
Thank you, Ossie. I am learning to improvise quite well now. I lost another 1/2 pound as of this morning. I have a question for all…Has anyone in here used Garcinia Cambogia, and if so, did it work for you?
Janet…….just make your response and indicate that it is a response to a certain post by using the writer’s name in the heading.
Sue……don’t know if I ever saw one of those here. Ossie can explain it better but I think there are too many variables to put up a chart here. I imagine you can do a Google search.
Hello Everyone.
I’m back from vacation. I had a lovely time, and ate seafood almost every day! I did gain one of my seven pounds back! 🙁 But I’m back on track today.
I’m really tired from a very busy 10 days, and tonight my son’s family (6 in all) are coming for about 5 days.
I met this evening with a group of my friends, and I’m just plain tired. But I’m ready for my company, and it will be so much fun getting to see some of my grand children.
It’s challenging following this program with life interferes, but when I’m here alone, I do great and feel great. I’m truly converted to it, so wish me luck this week while I entertain company!
Night all!Hi, Sue. The Trim Down Club does not work with calories, but rather with meeting your nutrient needs. The daily menus that come up when you go through the Menu Planner are based on a pattern based on your measurements, gender, and weight goal. If you find it is not working for you, please do write back, and we will work through the numbers with you.
Hi, Jan57. Yes, the intention is for you to eat everything listed in the menu. Because this program is not just a short-term diet but rather a program gear toward healthy lifelong lifestyle habits, there is more food that you may be used to seeing in diet programs. The intention is for you to meat all your nutritional needs and not be hungry.
Hello I am new to the club. I am having a very hard time getting started I am embarassed to say. I feel like I have no energy, and it’s frustrating. I signed up last week and have not followed one meal plan yet. I know shame on me! But I am determined to get in gear and do this. I must do this because my pre-diabetes will soon be diabetes if I don’t eat better and exercise. Please send me some words of encouragement!
Hey, Lucy……You already diserve a pat on the back. You’ve taken the first step…..aknowleging the fact that you need to change your life style. It has taken you a while to get to this point and it will take you a while to get into a healthier goove. Start by at least scanning if not reacing the materials on the program….shopping list, menus etc. Start small if you have to. Recognize things you should not buy and replace it with what you should buy. You don’t have to feel like you have to jump into this full bore. From my experience, it will drive you nuts. You have probably never heard of half the stuff they suggest, or whare to buy it. Start looking at what you are now eating and see if you can replace it with somthing from the shopping list…..piano, piano as the Italians say. I’m no expert and I am a pooh pooher of a lot of things associated with the plan, but I’m making little changes and although I don’t have a big weight problem, I know that small changes I have made all help a little.
Hi, deedie1115. Are you able to prepare meals ahead of time on the weekends to freeze for use during the week? That is a popular solution if you are able to reheat items in the middle of the day. Other prepared meals could be canned beans, organic low-sodium canned soups and soup-like stews, and organic frozen meals such as Amy’s, though these can be rather expensive. As for cereals, those that are sprouted whole grain or at least 100% whole grain, i.e. shredded wheat, are good, along with dairy or vegan milk in the morning. Dense snacks include nuts and seeds, sliced cheeses, fruits and vegetables.
Hello every one. Been off and on since the last time. I’m still having terrible headaches. Doctors cant figure out what it can be. Waiting to hear from my doctor to see if they can get me in to see a neurologist. We are just grasping at straws at this point. Still trying my best to eat right, and am looking forward to weighing myself this Monday. Wish me luck everyone. Take care and Happy Healthy Eating.
AnnaJackiee… Thank you. Its so good to see all the newcomers as well. How is your little angel. She sure must keep you on your toes. LOL Hope your headaches are doing better with you.
Foxx, Good for you. So nice to hear that you have lost some weight already.
