Need to lose weight?- natural ingredients to help you.

TX runners — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 21:32:45 GMT

Tired of trying diets that don't work? I was too. A friend of mine introduced me to ENLYTEN strips. The calorie burner (a combination of B vitamins, all natural fruit extracts and bioflavonoids) will help enhance your weight loss goal. Also, the appetite suppressant will help control your hunger between meals. Take these 2 strips 20 minutes before each meal. It really works and helps fight off cravings for those afternoon munchies http://www.enlyten.com/angelas

If you are interested in free samples- please send me a message. I have many testimonials of how these products are working for them!

supplements - Shaquille O'Neal Do you need B6, B12, vit.C, vit D?

TX runners — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 19:08:42 GMT

Performance strips! Shaquille O'Neal uses and endorses these strips. http://www.enlyten.com/angelas Many athletes are using these strips... I take the ANTIOXIDANT strips daily to get my vitamin D. Also, the energy strips have a blend of the vit B6 and B12 that many people are looking for. These strips dissolve in your mouth and go directly into your blood stream-better absorption! You get about 95% of the product compared to pills, and drinks.

I have been reading alot about almond butter lately. I am a 38 yr old 5'10" 166 pounds who cannot seem to loose a pound lately. I am just beginning (4 weeks ago) to run, am on w4d2 of the couch to 5k program. I am wondering if a T of almond butter would be better for me on 1/2 wheat english muffin over peanut butter. I normally wouldn't touch either due to fat content - but reading seems like I am not putting enough of this in my diet.

really wishing the twitching the nose thing and having a great plan out there for nutrition to help an aging mom of 2, get fit, lose about 20 pounds would work

Looking for a buddy to lose weight/exercise with......

Jacqueline102 — Mon, 18 May 2009 02:34:58 GMT

Hello everyone!

I'm pretty active. I ran PF Changs 1/2 marathon in January and since then managed to gain 13 lbs. Guess I let the "I'm going to treat myself for a couple of weeks after training so hard" last a little too long

I'm hoping to find someone who likes exercise, feels good after sweating, and wants to email daily exercise regiments and diet plans back and forth to help with the motivation part of weight loss. I'm the type of person who is more successful when I feel accountable to someone other than just myself. I'm 34 years old, 5'5", weigh 169 lbs, have no problem working out every day, and can diet better when I have a buddy to chat about with it. My longterm goal is to lose 30 lbs. and my short term goal is to enjoy my running again. I like kickboxing classes, and just about any type of cardio there is. I live in Arizona....not that it makes any difference, but I guess my advantage is to sweat more in our lovely 100+ degree weather LOL

I'm starting tomorrow as soon as I drop my daughter off at kindergarten and I hope someone joins me!

Can I ask you a question?

bmj2152 — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 21:11:07 GMT

Do you get 9 to 13 servings of fresh fruits and vegetables in your diet every day?

Do you think it is important to your health to do so?

Would you like to learn about an easy, affordable way to do just that?

Diet, Diet and confused Diet

marinbarclay — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 20:20:48 GMT

Ok so I know we don't diet but I am confused. How many calories a day do you need to consume for weight loss? Also, on my recomended body weight is 130-144lbs. I am 160lbs. How many calories do I consume a day? How do I amnage that if I am working out hard?

How much protein should one consume?

C-Rock — Fri, 31 Oct 2008 00:48:28 GMT

My EAS whey protein powder suggests 2-3 scoops per day at 28g of protein each. It then goes on to say that serious athletes can benefit from 1gram per pound of body weight per day. This sounds excessive to me. I tend to think they suggest more than can actually be taken advantage of for the sole purpose of selling more product. Anyways, contradicting those suggestions was a health website I was on the other day suggesting only 8g per day. I'm a 185lb male. I exercise 5days a week. Two weight workouts and three 3-6mile runs. Is there any consensus or rule of thumb on this?

supplements and vitamins

suzghp — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 17:08:51 GMT

Recently started taking a new product called GHP sport manufactured by Soma Life. I am very pleased with the results and have to say that the substained level of energy throughout the day is wonderful esc. with two kids.

I have been able to get up every morning and run 5 miles without the long recovery time I used to have.

My question is: I am looking for someone else who may be taking these supplements and for how long?
