A mom sharing her imperfect journey through motherhood and life. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. - 2 Corinthians 12:9
I watched your all videos. The video quality is excellent. I've noticed that your videos aren't getting as many views as they deserve. If you implement SEO strategies for your videos, I'm confident that they will attract a lot more views. I believe your videos have the potential to rank organically and gain a wider audience.
Alternatives when it's too hot to walk outside: -Walk around a mall or large building. -Jane Fonda walking videos on RU-vid -PopSugar low impact exercise videos on RU-vid -If you have stairs, walk up and down for several rounds -Squats
Hello 😊 very happy to have found your video - i wanted to ask you, have you kept it regularly to 1.2 mg or have you increased it gradually? Just like you was thinking to stick to 0.6 mg and see if that would work for me for a couple of months. Thank you ❤
I kept it regularly at 1.2 mg. I only did it for 4 months and then wanted to try to lose on my own. I wasn't successful in losing after that but I did maintain the weight I lost on it. I got pregnant though a couple months after. Now I am 8 months postpartum and back to trying to lose weight. I am again trying to lose without drugs at the moment.
So I have a lil tip for you that I give my husband every night before bed have a 16oz of hot water with lemon, paprika , honey, black pepper drink 30 minutes before bed and this will help burn the unwanted weight while you sleep, but also he is an intermittent fasting so that means he only has a 6-8hour window to eat whatever he wants to eat so he will eat between the hours of 10am and his last meal will be before 7 pm and it has been working phenomenally he lost 30 pounds in 2 1/2 months by sticking to his fasting I’m so proud of him
greetings. can you give a short feedback, how much weight have you managed to lose so far? have you had problems with the thyroid gland or with insulin, given that you have accumulated kilos, like me? thanks for the answer
so far I have lost 4 pounds but have only been at it for 2 weeks. I struggle with insulin problems and have a family history of diabetes so I am committed to change for health more than weight loss.
Yes girl! Yes girl! Yessss! I lost 30 lbs by just waling EVERY SINGLE DAY! your have absolutely got this! I am so excited for you! Get those kids outside. Get yourself outside! Just set a goal for every day and even if it's 5 minutes, do it every day!
thanks for the encouragement. I am realizing walking is so good for my mental health so I am able to convince myself to go often. I haven't made it to everyday yet but getting there.
I would highly recommend a book called “Kick your fat in the nuts” by T.C Hale. He has a channel on RU-vid called Kick it naturally. It has helped me tremendously to lose weight. I needed help with acid reflux mainly and found him. Just take on day at a time.
1) Your title scared me. But then I got to the 5:30ish mark, and I love your frame of mind here. 2) I am also working up to 5k. Consider adding swimming as a low impact way to increase cardio ability and recover joints from running.
Thanks. Yes, I am more interested in overall health than weight loss so we will see how this journey goes. I do enjoy swimming, I am considering that in the fall/winter because it is harder to get outside. I live where there are very short summers so for now I am trying to be outside as much as I can and enjoy the weather and fresh air.
Exactly, one step at a time. I’m on the same position except I don’t have kids 😂 but yeah we got this. I started with 5k steps then I upped it this week to 8k. Let’s stay consistent 💪
Good luck Lisa!🎉 But of course you CAN loose 100 pounds. You decide what YOU put in your mouth. YOU are the boss of yourself. Believe in yourself. Calories Do count and portion sizes Do matter - No matter what kind of food you eat. Your daughter is absolutely adorable, cuteness to the overflow!
I'll likely be going on Ozempic at some point in the future. This is more because of my diabetes than purely weight-loss, it would just kind of be a bonus if I end up losing. But that has to wait until after I'm done breastfeeding, and realistically done having kids. But my uncle had tried it for his diabetes and it really messed him up, so I'm worried that the genetics wouldn't be in my favor. We'll see what happens. I'll probably go back to intermittent fasting once I'm done breastfeeding more because I felt my best and it was great for my blood sugar again rather than losing weight.
yes, I think the drugs can be a useful tool especially to help diabetes. It is not just about being skinny, many people need to get the weight off for health. I feel like IF is very similar to saxenda in what it does but if I can get the blood sugar down using IF instead it is way cheaper and less risky. Mike is always worried about the cancer risk.
Wishing you ALL of the success! Will be watching you and cheering you on Lisa! If I can just add one point to help you, portion control is also very important, you can eat very healthy but if you take on more calories then you need you won’t see your weight going down. Unfortunately you need to be in deficit. Best of luck! 🌸
@@kellycorona1185 I believe my appetite increased but I was being careful with my food and trying to especially to manage sugar consumption. I did not gain the weight back for a few months. Then I got pregnant and appetite went crazy. I do think it works by keeping hunger at bay but it was also helpful to have a break from the struggle of trying to lose weight with no success and the whole mental strain of fighting will power. I don't think it is the answer to weight loss but I do think it is a good tool especially if you are a point mentally that you feel desperate and have no faith in yourself.
🌷So lovely to see you Lisa and the little one has grown so much! Beautiful! Busy mum you are and you are doing the best you can. Kids are healthy and happy so that’s a win already! 🌷💕
thank you very much for your wonderful review. I've never heard of this company before and I am encouraged by your experience. I'm glad you are taking a positive Look at yourself because you are truly lovely and I hope you feel that. Thanks again.
It might sound silly but crochet was huge for me when I was trying to watch for boredom snacking. Instead of sitting down watching a show and putting back a bag of chips I would crochet I didn't keep my hands busy and I couldn't snack cuz I would get crumbs all over my project. Also, you're doing amazing kicking button taking names. I'm excited to see how your fitness journey goes. Slow and steady wins the race
Also maybe rather than cutting sugar right away (which you are wise enough to ease into) keep a journal (or app, i use Cronometer cause it has time stamps) and see the times your indulging more and which are your go to snacks and what that sugar intake actually looks like. Give yourself a picture and a game plan on how to move forward before you do.
Also also NSV (non scale victories) are huge!! Particularly if you are building muscle while trying to lose weight, because the numbers always end up a little funny. A top fitting looser, being able to get 3 flights of stairs to your condo without getting winded 😅, your joints not aching when you walk long distances. These are huge victories
thanks for all the good advice and encouragement. I am trying to keep busy to avoid snacking unnecessarily. It seems to be helping. It is more fun to just get some hobbies to avoid overeating than to go on a diet!
yes! i am focusing on NSVs more than the weight. Especially during breast feeding because my body definitely doesn't like to let go of fat while I am nursing.
