Topic: Weigh****chers

I am having a really difficult time losing weight. I have eliminated sweets from my diet but don't really have the space in my kitchen or the time in my day to make weekly menus and measure every bite of food. I'm considering going back on Weigh****chers. I have always been able to lose about 30lbs doing Weigh****chers and I was hoping I could get some suggestions.

I've also had luck with Atkins, but my boyfriend wouldn't survive it. No carbs would drive him crazy. I just need to see the needle on that scale move before I lose faith or have it cause a problem with my insurance.

Any suggestions would be helpful. I just need help.

I find them at most grocery stores, but namely Fry's/Kroger. GNC sells the EAS powder but I don't know if they have the premade shakes.

Topic: RE: Is Eating Ice Bad for You?

When I was a kid, my uncle Al (of blessed memory) warned me that if you eat ice, the knot in your belly button would untie and your tushy would fall off.

 

You have been warned.  If you choose to eat ice, you do so at your own risk.

You might want to add ice and flavoring and blend the premier shakes if you have any left... I love to change them up https://www.pinterest.com/eggface/protein-shakes-and-smoothi es/

Topic: How Vitamin D Benefits Women

Vitamin D helps promote healthy bones by managing the absorption of calcium, as previously mentioned. However, there is an ever-increasing body of knowledge linking vitamin D to many other health benefits.

For instance, vitamin D has been linked to managing high blood pressure and normalizing hypertension symptoms. It can stimulate the pancreas and has a role in regulating the immune system. It reduces the risk of colon polyps, heart attacks, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis. Vitamin D can even help alleviate bone pain.

For women specifically, vitamin D lowers the levels of estradiol and progesterone in the body—two hormones of which high amounts can cause infertility. Another cause of infertility, polycystic ovarian syndrome, is also reduced by consuming proper levels of vitamin D. If the daily vitamin D intake is met, the handy nutrient can reduce the ability of genes linked to breast cancer to express themselves, thereby lowering breast cancer risk by up to 30%. When pregnant, proper vitamin D intake can help reduce the chance of the baby being born with skeletal malformations, brittle bone disease, or low bone density. With all of this in mind, it might be easier to list what vitamin D doesn’t help with!

The EAS chocolate premade shakes aren't bad. As far as powder goes any and all Nectar flavors are amazing. You can't go wrong with them.
