BP.Net Weightloss CHALLENGE

i've seen pics of you christie... you are stacey mom!!!

and thanks ben :hug:

:8: Nah, I'm Calvin and Natalie's soccer mom. You should have seen me in high school. :yes: ;)

I'm not there yet. I do enjoy working out, so that's good. I even started drinking juice because of you. It kills my sweet tooth really well.

good to hear. are you juicing?

Nah, I just have the no sugar added stuff from the store. :oops:

well i hate to break this to you but... when you juice, you are supposed to drink it right away as the juice doesn't keep the beneficial aspects over time. so juice from the store is just liquid sugar. :P and that won't help you loose any weight.

Well crap.... just burst my bubble why don't ya? :doh:

I'm so glad to hear about everyone's successes! I'm still plodding along. Falling down and picking myself up have been regular occurances in the last couple months...but I'm still working at it. 32 lbs down (total), 18 to go! By December 1, I want to be at goal. :) I've made lots of time goals for myself, and I'm hoping to stick to 'em.

As far as juice goes--I stay far, far away from it. I'm a believer in whole fruits/veggies. Gotta love all that fiber :)

you are so darned thin,... where are you finding 50 lbs to loose *shock*

yes the fibre is very good... but so is giving your digestion a chance to rest... hence the juice fast. juice on it's own isn't something i would do though. just during a fast. we add other things to assist the colon... like ground flax seeds!

Ditto the fiber thing. It is wise to give the body a rest from it or you end up over working your system... which is a bad thing in the long run.

Just remember to *not* get stuck on a limited diet, that's not a good thing either. The more variety you provide for yourself, the easier it will be for your body to maintain proper nutrition and overall balance, including weight balance.
Eat as many whole foods as you can as well as, as many raw foods as you can (except meat of course).

Sushi!!!!!!!
