This has turned out to be an awesome post. Lets all stay motivated.6 days until Mondays check in.

For those of us that can't excercise taking collagen daily will help with muscle tone. I can't afford it anymore but Ultra 90 WORKS. It was designed for people with back injuries. I lost 20lbs last year when I started taking it. It's good for your joints to it has collagen in it.

Anyway, good luck everyone stay in touch!!

Marci, does collagen actually repair muscle and strengthen it? Does it help with tendons and ligament repair too? I've never heard of it before but I have a weak back with inflammation. I'd like more info on that if you have any.
Thanks,
Ama

I know it's not Monday yet but I have to share. I was the biggest ever (well except for when I went in to deliver my 1st son) at 212, my PCP gave me diet pills to try to help me out since I can move around as much as I'd like. Anyway, when I woke up this am I noticed that the swelling in my legs from the knees down had gone down drastically & between the diet pill & water pill I weighed in at 204 this morning. If I can get down to at least 175 by summer I'll be happy & reevaluate then. Thanks Kris for starting this because I was getting bad with eating too much junk just because it's so quick & easy so that I don't have to be on my feet as long...well not to mention that it tastes really good too BUT you started it so I'm in for the long haul too. Good luck to everyone that has joined in...see ya all Monday ((((((((((HUGS))))))))))
