16 pounds in one month!!

I didn't lose the twenty I set for my goal.
16 pounds is wonderful. I'll take it!
This was done eating REAL food, drinking my water, walking and the use of FORM & FIXX.
The addition of FORM and FIXX is the only difference from before 9/23 and after.

Visual for food/portion comparison

What is one serving?
Some comparisons to visualize food portions:
Nickel : the diameter of dry spaghetti = 2oz dry/1c cooked

Tennis ball: 1 cup of cooked rice or 15 grapes

Baseball: 12-oz. potato or 1 cup of dry cereal

Deck of cards: 3 oz meat

1 matchbook : 1tbsp of salad dressing, oil, mayonnaise

10_3 Today's FORM experience myo3world information

Ok, so a NET loss of 5 pounds, I gained a pound. Still remarkable loss(for me) from last Tuesday.
Today's food:
Breakfast was a protein shake (no, still not FIXX yet, it's in the mail).
I used frozen strawberries instead of ice. Ate a banana on the road to work.
~ 10 a.m. I took a FORM capsule. 10:45 was lunch and I had 1/4 of a Panera Bread Turkey Bacon Bravo sandwich, a bite of pickle, I was DONE!
Dinner was steamed cauliflower, broccoli, corn and a slice of roast beef.
There was rice but I didn't want dinner to lay there like a lead ball. We ate late tonight.
Ate melon and straw/blueberry fruit salad ~ 1c.

PS I wonder if Panera is publicly traded? I love that place.

I LOST SIX POUNDS!

OH MY GOODNESS!
I stepped on a friends scale down south and it showed a loss but she said the scale was loopy.
I have lost 6 pounds since last Tuesday!
I have to see if this is real.
Details to follow.

Other diets and plans.

Ok, about other diets.
In reality, diets DON'T work, we all know that deep down inside.
They do however, show results, sometimes, many times in fact.
My trouble with diets has always been hunger except for Atkins but I gained weight on Atkins.
I also gained weight on WW.
I am not knocking either one of them. They both have merit if used properly.
South Beach, Meditteranean, Caveman diets all are good in their own way.
I have tried, and had some success with a few of them.
I have even had Nutrisystem (didn't like) and ZONE Chefs (now Chefs diet) delivered to the door.
The "diet" I did like most was having the food delivered from CHEFS Diet but since I wasn't in one of their drop off zones, I had to have the food sent chilled. Although nothing came spoiled, gourmet salads and entrees do not fare well in the 'fridge for a week. The minimal for cold delivery was a week if I remember correctly. I was HUNGRY though and that made it torturous. I soon weakened and then rebounded.
We have all been there, when the "diet" is a failure or we are too hungry to continue.
If I had known about and used FORM with any of the diets I tried I believe I would have had more success, stayed on them longer and eventually reach GOAL.
For the last several months I had tried to eat from a healthy assortment of foods and to drasticly reduce portions.
We have been walking everyday for exercise.
30 days from now my results should speak from themselves.
So, stay on any of the diet plans but add FORM to them to ease the hunger.
Are you inFORMed?

Youtube and Subtitles and Captions

A friend of a friend is profoundly deaf.
He was asking (thru my friend) about the Tube in general.
He was asking about captions.
I see with YT's last update you can add captions or subtitles to the videos.
I am stumped though with how to do it.
I did find a website where you can upload your videos ( or any video I suppose) and then add the text with their editing tool.
It did take a while but hey, it's raining and when i get my mind on something, it gets done.
The website is Overstream. It's worth a look until you/I can figure out YT's captions option.

Today's FORM experience

woke up this mornin' fellin' fine....(isn't that a song?)
Anyhoo, We were up extra early.
Breakfast was about 3/4c. homemade fruit salad consisting of mostly melon and blueberries.
Make a breakfast omlette with egg whites:yolks 3:1, green pepper and onion.
YES there was bacon had, and it was good. Seriously, two strips turkey bacon.
I wasn't sure how I would like either product especially the FIXX shake. I only ordered my experience pack. I should have ordered more. It will be my shake of choice.

Unsweetened Iced tea.

An hour before lunch I took 1 FORM capsule. I drank unsweetened tea instead of plain water this time. I still got the full feeling about 20 minutes later.
We ate out today. It has been pouring rain all day and I needed to get out.
We went to Outback and I started with a salad. BAD idea.
I ordered a small steak and after one bite I couldn't eat anymore.
I ate a forkfull of veggies just to make sure they got in there.
Well, at least I knew what my dinner was going to be.

Visited a friend but hadn't brought my FORM capsules. She had her laptop and I showed her this blog, the website and she wants samples.

I took 2 FORM capsules and again, OH MY GOODNESS. Not painful but I was stuffed just like after a Thanksgiving meal. I will be only taking 1 FORM capsule before lunch and dinner.
I was too full for dinner. I ate the leftover veggies and two bites of steak.
I guess I know what I'll be having mixed into an eggwhite omlette tomorrow morning.

My lesson learned:
ONE FORM CAPSULE is enough for me.

I was worried about how FORM "leaves" you.
All normal. Can't tell FORM from everything else.

O, O, O, I do burp about ten minutes after taking the FORM capsule.

The FORM stayed semi-solid.
FORM is the FIRST to MARKET weightloss product that works 100% of the time.
