Guest guest Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Sandy I am new at the using the Vitamix too but I am no stranger to losing weight. I lost over 50 pounds through diet and exercising. It was not an overnight trip but through perseverance I lost the weight and just as importantly I have kept it off. I didn't follow and specific diet but I made healthy choices and counted calories. Losing weight was not a straight line for me either. It was frustrating at times when I knew I did everything right and either gained a little weight or stayed stagnate for a while but eventually the scale moved lower. One suggestion I would have in my limited time Vitamix would be try to eat a balance diet and pay attention to serving sizes. As you look at the Whole Food cookbook the serving sizes are not for one so you either have to adapt the recipes for a serving at a time or save what you make to have later.

I am a new owner. I guess I don't know where to start. I am wanting to lose 20 lbs. and thought I could do this by counting calories. I love these recipes because they do show the cal and so on.ThanksSandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 I lost 11 lbs so far. I don't count calories. I stopped eating process food and no white food such as bread, white rice, pastry. I ate a greens salad every day. I lost the craving for junk food and sweets. So that's a big help.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 I lost 15 lbs using T-Tapp workout (15 min/day) and Eat Clean diet (lifestyle more than a diet). I love how I feel and the weight loss is great too! -- Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
