Has anyone found a solution to snacking? I bought almonds, yogurt, sugar free pudding, and special k and man they are going quick! I am glad that I am not eating cookies and chips but still....
i tried Atkins but i didn't last. i gotta eat... lol!!
But i started a program that actually detox first before getting into the eating plan. i think it is great, if they would only stop passing around tons of food at work... a girl can only resist for so long.....

Thanks cmesweet. i need the encouragement. 2 wks without loss has taken a toll on me, especially with the taebo and slim in 6. man, that stuff is hard and then to see no weightloss
i have even started eating more vegetarian meals.
So here's what i have decided, i am going to challenge slim in 6 and do only that for 6 wks and see what happens .
Hi Kellie. Have you noticed any change in the way your clothes fit? Are they a little looser? You are probably replacing fat with muscle and won't see a change on the scale yet. A pound of muscle weighs the same as a pound of fat. A pound is a pound no matter what it is.

well i weighed in today, but no change on my 20 lbs. this is 2 weeks now..argghhh . but the one thing i know is that i am really working hard on the muskles, so i figure it is better than gaining and nothing to show for it.
cmesweet, yoga i have not done in a while, i hear it does send blood to the brain, i should try that. i may even have a video somewhere. i must sound like a hermit all these videos, but i do get out.. i promise

I was late to yoga yesterday, but I hear yoga is great for the hair because you have to go into position that increases the blood flow to the scalp.
This weekend, I walked around the neighborhood a few times as well.
Happy Hair growing to everyone!
This will be week 2 for these cornrows, I will probably take them out on Friday.
Nappturality is having a Cornrow until Decemeber challenge. The only thing I'm afriad of is having stress on the hairline and causing alopecia from it.
My own hair update.. I have been wearing a sew in weave since 2005 as a protective style while I grew my hair back from a VERY short hair cut. As of last weekend, I am happy to note that my hair is now 1" past my shoulders. I took down my last install and flat ironed my hair just cause I haven't worn my own hair out in two years... It is thick and healthy, and the only relaxed area is the horseshoe are I left out for blending my hair with the weave. That area is now 6 months post relaxer.. I may continue down that path and go all natural.. (not sure still) So if things continue to go down this path I should be pretty close to APL by the end of the year.. I will be getting my new install next week.. I'm sooooo excited!!! Can't wait to see what my hair looks like at the end of this journey!

Thanks a lot. I tried the first two points that have been mentioned on the site. It seems to be working. Today I noticed they have added another tip on the dandruff page to cure dandruff. I tried that recipe also, my hair has definitely become silky but, as in for dandruff I don't know how much it's helped, as today was the first time I applied the curd recipe mentioned. But, The texture of the hair has definitely improved after wash.

Friday I deep conditioned my hair over night with LeKlair cholestoral...it smelled bad. Anyways, I detangled with it in and then washed it out. Then I put in Parnevu leave- in conditioner and blow dried my hair. Afterwards, I went to get my hair cornrowed....they reach to my armpit or a little below. I noticed it took longer than usual for the girl to braid them $10.00. Then I came home, sprayed my ends with a spritz of water and kukui nut body oil and put 2 beads on the end of each braid.
Just to feel the wooden beads down my back is awesome and also that they come over my shoulder. WHen I was a kid i always wanted to wear beads and now I finally can.
