Hey Ladies

Letty_Good to hear from you.. Thanks for the Water advice I bought me a box of crystal light today at CVS next to my job and it is very good. I like the white tea one.. Gracias..very much. The pills are only a bust to help you lose more weight then dieting and exercise by itself. How long have you been using them?  Stay intouch.. I would like to hear from all of you when we reach out TOP.

I have no exercise goals my goal is been able to get on those size 11 pants I did not trash. I have been exercising every day even if it is for 30 minutes. I am sore, but it suppose to be part of the work out.  I have been counting my colories and now that I am going to Puerto Rico, I am glad it is only 4 days. Because I don't want to mess up. Maybe if I just eat pinchos each pincho without the sauce should be around 293 calories. I get to eat a few a day with water.. and stick to my calories. I am trying to eat 1500 calories or less a day. I am a Computer Engineer I spend most of my time infront of a PC. I you guys need any help finding out calories or even weight watchers points let me know..  Good luck to everybody I would think about you guys while I am in the Playa getting a sun tan.. It suppose to rain next week but I am still goign to try to get a tan. I am a morena that has lost all her color in the states. LOL..

 Hello everyone,

My name is Noemi and I have been reading this forum for a couple of days and just wanted to join in to share too.

 I work as an IT Manager and I too spend lots of time in front of a computer (not much exercise there!).  I do make an extreme effort every weekday to leave my desk for at least 25 minutes during lunch and I take a nice brisk walk to get the heart pumping.

Then I work out for 30-40 minutes 4 times a week in the evenings.  If you guys love to dance, then you just have to try ZUMBA.  I purchased the DVD's online after going to a complimentary class at a local gym (it was cheaper then the gym membership!)  It's got salsa, merengue, cumbia, plus lots more.

If anyone is interested here's a website: http://www.zumbafitness.com

 Buena suerte to everyone on reaching their goals!!

 Josy - have a great trip!!

all the way to the top

Hey Girls  

I am glad to see everyone doing so well. I have been very busy this past 2 weeks. I finished all my Alli pills in the starter and Its hard finding that refill bottle I LOOKED EVERY WHERE an nothing -_-  but I did find it today it cost me 69.99  O_O expensive but as my grandmother says ITS FOR YOUR HEALTH.

 So again I will starting the pill again. so its back on track.

 Hello Nomi and Welcome join our group on our way to the top!

I can feel my pants becoming loose ^_^ so happy but I according to my guy friends my rear end is getting bigger O_O I don't want that.I am looseing but gaining that. -_-;

TO THE TOP!!!!!!!!!!!

 I had the time of my life in Puerto Rico, I also Have a tan I am happy about that. It was very hard to keep up with my calorie count but what chock me the most was I did not take the pills but my body was still acting like I was. I was still having that full filling we were talking about. So the affect of the pill did stay with me for a few days even though I did not take them. I know I did not eat to healthy but I did pick the healthier of my choices.

Althena, you are in big trouble did you forget that you are Puertorican and no matter how much weight we lose your butt is not going anywhere where do you think JLO go her butt from.. It is in your blood.. smile.

Letty, thanks for looking out, how is everything with you.

Pinales and Lornaliz are you guys ok.. Stay intouch..

Hello Ladies,

I just got done reading all of your posts.  I really like the support you give eachother. I have been on Alli for 3 weeks.  In the first two weeks I lost 9 pds.  I have no idea where I am at since I have become strict with weighing myself every Monday.  So, we'll see where I'm at this upcoming Monday.  I have really attacked this Alli thing and have gone full force with it.  Yes, I have had the side effects (oh my, NOT fun!). I go on the treadmill 6 days a week and walk 2-3 miles and lift weights. I started Alli weighing 219, and Monday I weighed 210.  I just want to be out of the 200's.That would just make my day! :-)   I just decided that I am tired of being fat, and I have already noticed that my clothes are getting looser and my tummy is deflating.  Plus, my family and I are going on a Cruise in November leaving out of San Juan Puerto Rico and I want to wear that 2 piece again.  It's something to look forward to, but a life style change.  Can anyone tell me if I go to a Mexican restraunt, what would be safe to eat? 

Good luck to everyone!

Welcome,, We try our best to stay in touch with each other.

Hi to all.  Im from Yauco PR, and I started the plan like in december and I lost like 10 pounds and proudly went down from size 18 to 14, but then i couldn't by the pills, stopped doing ejercicios (I have triplets and Im a single mom, so its not easy) I just bought another bottle like a week ago, and started again, I'm trying to make a space for me and do excersize al least twice a week for at least 60 minutes and of course on weekends I'm gonna try to do more. 

Of course boricuas loves to eat, are food is so great, unas chuletas fritas, but can't do them, I'm having blood pressure problems, my weight is 226 and I want to be at least in 190.  I really hope I can keep in contact with all of you.

Nellie

Hi everyone,

Nellie, good luck to you.  Don't worry, I think we all fall back a bit but the important thing is that you are getting back on track.  I started alli about 2 1/2 months ago and lost 9 lbs, but I think I reached a plateau where I am not loosing any weight for the last 2 weeks.  I have to admit that I kind of gave in to the temptation of the wonderful spanish cuisine, but I am trying to get myself back on track too.

So don't give up!  You are already strong if you have triplets to deal with!  My brother has triplets and they give the family a real workout!

Once again, good luck!

Noemi 

 Hey Nellie, forgot to mention... I love chuletas too, so I just trim the fat from them, season them real good with adobo, ajo and sazon, rub a tiny bit of olive oil on them and broil them or grill them.  Try it!

Noemi 

Holla Chicas Como estan......

Hi Girls:

Nice to know there is someone to keep in touch.  Sorry if I pour my heart out a bit, today I feel lonely.  You might think how u can feel lonely with triplets, well I have lots of people around me, but I still feel lonely.  I know we women are strong.  But I'm htting one of does days that I wish I had a shoulder to lean on.  I wish I had someone that would just hug me at tell me dont worry I'm here.  I'll get over it, its been a long time since I felt like this.  I just needed to get it out of my chest.

Thanks for being here....and I knwo that even though the day is kind of cloudy today tomorrow the sun will come out againn.

the diet, working hard on it.
