Great meeting!!
So glad that we had a good turn out at our meeting this past Saturday. Please give me your feedback! We need to know what is working and how we can improve.
We didn't get much time in to just sit back and talk this time. I thought it would be good to periodically have a speaker if possible. I thought Mollie @ http://ptcfitnessspa.com/ was very informative! YAY!
Anyway, hope you came away with something from our meeting. Here is what I wrote down:
I do need your help. The samples that you got in your goody bags, if you could be so kind as to send me an email about what you liked or disliked about them, that would be terrific. If you could tell me what product and flavor it was, what you thought about flavor, texture, etc. The people who send them to me only ask for input to improve their products. I supplied the protein drink, hope you liked them. Let me know, I really didn't care for the taste but I can get down 2.5 oz. of protein, probably with my supplements in the morning and that is a shot of 24 g. of protein, done!! And it is the good protein according to my dietician and Mollie, the trainer. I purchased 2 cases for myself.
Also, I would love to meet those of you who could at Broadway Diner one day this week. Send me the best day for you and we will try to get together. I work late so it would have to be after 6.
Next month will be our clothing swap for the colder months. So bring clothes appropriate. We are all at different places in weightloss, don't worry if you don't have anything to bring to swap, please get what you need!!
If you have a great food find, exercise, idea, anything. Please share it with us. Also, feel free to share this information with others and invite them to our next meeting Saturday, October 8th at 11:30.
Thanks for coming, have a wonderful week and I look forward to seeing LESS of you next month!!

Anyway, hope you came away with something from our meeting. Here is what I wrote down:
- Just 2 weeks without weight-bearing exercises can cause muscles to begin to atrophy.
- We should be eating simply, as few ingredients as possible.
- Stay on the perimeter of the grocery store. Stay away from the aisles as much as possible
- A McDonald's hamburger has so many preservatives in it, if you were to leave one lying around it will last for months.
- Olive oil and coconut oil are the best fats.
- Protein sources: almond milk, beans, hummus, mushrooms, nuts, soy, tofu, quorn, wheat tofu, smart brand products.
- Good sweeteners: Nu-Stevia, Xylitol
- Calcium: dark, leafy greens, Kale chips
- Eat rite pizzas: http://www.lindasdietdelites.com/healthy-frozen-foods-66/?ze nid=9b4d03862b81bd99138cfb27a35fbeb2
