Quoting ♥Lexies Mommy:" Your looking great I can def see a change!!! And look at your belly I see no stretchies from all those babies. "

Thank you!! There are some there just old and light lol but not horrible for 4 kids.

Quoting aℓyssa™:" YAY! I ordered it so now I just have to hope it looks good one.   And I will definitely be sharing pictures!       "

I like it too! Yay, how exciting!!

I have been slacking for the past couple of days and my weight is at a stand still. I really need to improve my eating habits and stay focused.

Thank you!   I literally can't sleep at night anymore because of how excited I am.

I'm sorry.  

Just keep pushing through and get rid of the junk food in your house!

The hard part is that I really havent been eating junk food like sugary things. We have most of that out of the house already. I guess its just portion control that I am lack. I like to eat a lot of carbs which is really hard. Ive been cooking with whole grain rice and pasta though.

That's awesome though!

Yeah, I had to get rid of my pasta/bread and stuff because that was like 90% of my intake.   That's another part that I like about literally working from 8-12hrs a day. I take what I can eat to work and I'm not left snacking all day, like I do on my days off, lol.

This really helps me. Ill buy the 100 snack packs and sit there and eat like 3 or 4 of them   lol but if they arent there, I cant eat them!

This. I have NO self control with a lot of things. I can't just eat one, so I can't keep them in the house, lol.

Has anyone ever tired the Hollywood 48 hour diet? Its basically a drink you buy, cut with water and are supposed to only drink it for 48 hours. I guess its just a diuretic to help you lose some water weight. I know the results are only temporary but my bridesmaids are giving me a bachelorette party this weekend and Ive been feeling bloated and I thought it might be worth a try. Any thoughts?

Personally I'd just increase your water and cut out all the salt you can. I'd bet that would help at least as much.

How much water do you think is a good amount? I currently drink anywhere from 36 to 72 ounces depending on the day.

My best friend did that and had absolutely no results with it.   Besides the fact she was super freaking grouchy!

At least half your body weight! You'll drop your water weight almost immediately.
