Weight Loss Supplements for Women?

[ChemicalSoires]

My husband is health savvy as well, but he is not a woman. I look to him for motivation but that is all. He has his own program and I have mine.

The best thing I have ever done for myself is to start the Shadow program that is listed as a sticky on here. You will have trouble with the drop in carbs at first, but I have seen changes in my body that I haven't seen in years. Just a suggestion. When I first came here I was really confused and this plan has made it very simple for me.

Good luck to you!

Thank you very much! I'll look into that plan. My main problem is that I'm so short I can't eat as many calories as most can and maintain a healthy weight. I also have a very very slow metabolism, and it seems like everything I turns into fat and stays there no matter what I do.

Sometimes it just really takes LOOKING at the foods you are eating and making a serious and consistent effort to change them - its a LIFESTYLE -- not what's conveniently available at the time - I'm not making a slam - its just a choice -for me- I"ve been training balls to the wall for over 20 yrs but it takes a TIGHT diet and cardio to get results. IF you don't make dramataic changes you won't get results any time fast - and thn you start to think things like you have a screwed up thyroid or "slow metabolism" or whatever- your body can only respond tohow you feed it and what energy demands you ask of it.

Check the Shadow Project - execellent place to start.

But dont' be discouraged -- -it takes a little time to find what works & fits in your life but if you give e.g. the Shadow Project an HONEST 3 weeks of your time you will see results. And FOR YOU , make the effort to have good clean foods in the house - you aren't completely a slave to your family's choices - if you aren't happy w/ yourself then you can't be happy w/ others. SO be good to yourself and make sure that you get what you need to succeed!

I would extensively read all the information on this site.

Really review the stickies. Especially Daisy Girl's link to the top threads very, very insightful.

What are some good meats, with lots of protein, and less carbs and cals?
