To drop weight you have to eat less calories than you burn. Extra exercise helps the math equation...
But the biggest thing is controlling what we eat. It's also the hardest and it's ongoing. You can't work hard to get to where you want to be and then get there and go back to the old ways. It's a nonstop decision making process. It's all about making good choices MOST of the time. I say Most because we all deserve to splurge and enjoy the deliciousness in life.
Healthy and Fit Family & Friends
I am an ordinary Mom, Daughter, Sister, Wife, and Friend. I enjoy exercising and doing all I can to feel good every day. My goal is to maintain a healthy lifestyle through the support and encouragement of others. I hope to motivate by taking some time to focus on ourselves and the things that keep us healthy and happy.

One Week Challenge.
Alright. Here we go. The challenge starts on Monday, 10/1. We are going to stick to 2 shakes a day. You can have a morning and afternoon snack if you want but it has to be fruit, veggies, or nuts.
It's just 7 days. If you leave for work, then just make your drink in a shaker cup or just make it the night before and freeze. Prepare the night before if you think you will lose track of time in the morning.

After 1 week, everyone is feeling satisfied

Jacquie: Day 8 - I've lost 1 pound and my pants feel a
tiny bit less snug. I love the variety of recipe options! I haven't tried
replacing two meals in a day, but may try on lighter workout days.
Goal for the next 10 days- It would be tough, but I could give up ice
cream for 10 days (maybe)
Stephanie: Week #6, Net loss today is 0. I am satisfied
with the meal and enjoy the taste.
Goal for the next 10
days- No soda
Sabrina: Day 1 :) Starting over. In
30 days, I probably dropped 3 lbs. I need to make some other changes to see
more.... I feel good about my shake as
my meal but I am craving carbs for my next meal.
Goal for the next 10 days- I am
going to give up pop...starting NOW. uh oh..... well, maybe I'll start
tomorrow... hehe
Kristine: Day 7. No
changed yet.
Satisfied
with your shake as your meal? Yes. Nothing usually sounds good to eat so this a
super easy option!!
Goal
for the next 10 days: I don't really have anything. I just eat these and
dinner. No sweets ever. I would say wine.. but not sure I could go 10
days:)
Jenny: Day 52. My
pants feel looser and I have lost about 8 pounds.
I really do enjoy the
shakes. I switch between fruit based and peanut butter based depending on my
mood.
Goal for the next 10
days: Only one cheat day.
Supreme 90 Day 8- Complete! Sore but loving it.

1) What do you think of the taste of the shake - honestly.They taste way better than other shakes I've tried. I don't NEED a straw to drink it fast so I don't taste it. I actually take time to enjoy the flavor.2) What date did you start the shake? What day are you on? Day 1. 9/5.3) What is your goal for the first 30 days? To establish good balance and control with my eating habits. And, lose 5 lbs.4) What is your goal for 60 days? Body confidence. Lose 5 more lbs.5) What is your goal for 90 days? Lose the last 5 lbs. and finally, after four years, reach my goal weight. Then, maintain.6) You know that diet alone does not make you lose weight. What type of exercise are you willing to try? 2 days a week... 5 days? I generally try to exercise five days...mostly running and some weight training. I need to mix it up more and be consistent with strength training and work on my core. I rely too much on running alone. I'll try just about anything!7) Are you full on the shake? I do feel full. By mid morning I'm ready for a light snack and not already starving for lunch :)
