Aoother way to loose weight TTapp

I slacked off TTapp for about 4 days because my knees started to hurt. After a few days the pain in my knees stopped  and  I went right back to using TTapp, only this time I do it every other day.  TTapp makes my body feel good. I move better and I can get up and down the stairs a whole lot easier. I have not taken my measurements yet but I am wearing a pair of pants that felt to uncomfortable to wear a few months ago. The work out actually makes me want to  move around a little more. TTapp encourages people to eat God Made food for two days and Man Made foods for one day.  I have incorporated this into my daily routine and it is making me more aware of what I eating and  how my body feels after a particular meal. I hope with eating when hungry and stopping when I am no longer hungry  any more helps with my weight loss because this would be a fantastic way to lose all the unwanted  pounds. TTapp

TTAPP review

Yesterday was day 4 of the TTAPP workout and I decided to wait until bed time to do the routine. I must say, it was a lot harder to do it after working all day but I did sleep better last night. As I woke up this morning, I found myself making excusses why I didn't want to do the exercise but in the back of my mind I know it actually makes me feel better during the day. After the work out my body feels like it is still moving (if that sounds right). It feels like my body is still in exercise mold.  My knees hurt a little but I know it is because I usually don't move much. I keep thinking about the man in the video who  was able to move his belt buckle 4 holes in three weeks. I still have not measured myself but I will try to make an effort today.

T-Tapp

Day 3 of T-TAPP  and I lost 3 pounds. While the exercise is only 15 minutes, I am sweating all over. My body heated up right from the start and I truly feel like I have worked out. I only wished I'd taken my measurements when I started. Tomorrow is day 4 and I plan to follow through.

Can't you really lose a dress size with a 15 minute work outl?

Today I started the t-tapp work out. I brought it about 10 years ago but never really used it. I brought it after reading about a lady who lost a dress size in two weeks in Woman's World Magazine. The article showed a basic exercise that could be done in about 7 minutes. Over the years I did the 7 minute exercise when my body would get stiff and in just two days I could move better but unfortunately I did not continue or even look at the T-TAPP CD's. I only did the 7 minutes when I was in pain or feeling like I could hardly walk in the mall. As soon as my body felt better, TTapp was all over. 
After 10 years, I decided to pull out TTapp and actually look at it, it inspired me to start moving my body.  I tell ya, boy o boy did I get a work out. The work out was only 15 minutes and I was sweating and panting.  The workout made me feel like a whole new person, I feel energized and ready to do some neglected chores. 
One of the men in the videos says he lost 4 belt holes in three weeks. I will to update every week for the next 4 weeks on my progress. I will post my measurements in tomorrows post.

Still trying the Diets don't work approach

I am still on this journey of eating when hungry and stopping when I'm no longer hungry. It has become a naturally way of eating but the pounds are not falling off like I would like them to. I usually go up and down about 7 pounds which my doctor says is normall. She keeps saying you will have to change  your eating to get results even though my blood pressure is 120 over 80 and my number on the diabetic counter shows 74. I do not want to count calories or count carbs for the rest of my life. I have added more fruit and some vegetables to my diet but I still eat what I want. I want this way of eating  to work so bad that I even incorporated eating portions the size of my fist. I found a bowl at Target that is about the size of my fist. I drink orange juice from a child's sippy cup which is about a little less than cup. I love eating this way but I only wish the pounds would drop off. My mind now thinks like a thin person so I need my body to catch up. Any suggestion?

Could I lose 9 pounds in two days

A week ago I read an article in Woman's World Magazine where the claim was "Lose 9 pounds in two days". As I looked at the diet, I thought it was dueable and since I had most of the food items on hand I decided to change the diet and added a few things such as adding low carb salad dressings. To my supprise I lost 4 pounds in two days and I wasn't even hungry. Today I will continue the diet but still waiting until hungry before eating.
