Is this happening to you?

Aug 19, 2010

Hi everyone!! I hope all is going well for you! As far as me, not too good.  It seems like I am no longer tolerating the protein shakes.  I have tried several brands and they seem to give me really bad cramps in my new pouch.  Just imagine dry heaving and you've got nothing in your stomach, and your stomach is contracting - it hurts and feels uncomfortable - that's what it feels when i drink the shakes.  I have tried the soy one and it doesn't taste too good.. Blah.  I am now drinking isopure - half water and half isopure, but last night I was drinking it, and it started to hurt my belly....ughhh!  Does anyone else have that problem?  Any suggestions for me to get the protein in with something else?
So,
It was 7 weeks yesterday and so far, I have lost 27 lbs.  I am happy about the weight loss, but I am a little disappointed with it too.  I know that I could have lost more, if I had adopted an exercise routine.  I am tired most of the time and I really don't feel like doing anything.  I've been taking my iron pills, but they don't seem to help.  This weekend I am going to sit down and make an exercise plan that I intend to follow.  I've looked in to Zumba, I went to the gym to price the membership and I am ready to make a commitment.  I need to start toning as I am already flabby. Yuck...The funny thing is that I've set my alarm to 415am all this week so I can exercise and I can't even get up.  It goes off and then I just turn it off.  Lucky for me, I've got two alarms and I manage to get up for work at 530am.  Does anyone have any suggestions as far as a workout routine, or what motivates you?
Good luck everyone!!!! I hope all of you are doing awesome!
