This will be my first time. I feel like it is working. I am loosing weight and I am losing it faster now that I have stopped breastfeeding (it is not sticking to my hips and stomach now. I can't wait to see how much I can lose on Chitosan. I am getting today, along with all my other supplements.), I have increased my exercise big time and I feel a lot calmer and almost like I don't even really care about things as much (strangely even about swaying. I am pretty competitive and can get worked up easily about things), and I have a lot less CM now than in the past. I have started to incorporate some of the girl foods yogurt, strawberries, Perrier water, more milk, eggs, and not salting my food (this has been the hardest), but I eat other stuff too. I won't go hardcore on the diet until about 6 weeks before I try, but I need to transition myself into not eating salt.
Atomic I am up to about 65 minutes of running and walking outside (tons of hills too. Running I am up to 30 minutes and the rest is fast walking). I also do Jillian Micheal's 30 day shred level 1, 2-3 times a week with no more than 3 to 5 lb weights. I am not sure if I really have great muscle tone to be honest. I can barely even do a girly push up. Should I stop the Jillian workout all together and just do the cardio? (I think Tamara had a link about the progesterone diet on her sway book and I think it said that long periods of exercise will help increase progesterone and on a side note so do walnuts...lol We had talked about eating walnuts for some Omega 3 on another post. I think I will eat these a few times a week unsalted.)
