Christmas is gonna be hard 😅 I need to plan out each day to get though this and be successful. In the end, my stomach will hurt way less when I ditch the sweets, so that will be my main motivation

It’s not my biggest motivation, but I’m looking forward to cutting down on my acid reflux. Since I started Diet Bet in November, I’m no longer automatically taking stomach meds before bedtime - a definite improvement!

Chrix

@starlight that is actually a great motivation. The days I eat healthy I wake up the next morning with less gut inflammation (and the other way around) it is kind of like getting a reminder each morning what the consequences of this days choices will result in. Good luck with your throat :blush:

  • I received unfavorable news from my GI doctor. Plant-based whole foods is the Rx. Looking for healing books. Is there anything you'd recommend? I'm just gaining knowledge right now. Thanks.

Becoming vegan is a good resource from Brenda Davis. Very comprehensive nutrition primer. Fiber fueled is a good one on gut health. By Will Bulciewicz. I look for recipes online but I also have some books at home. Engine Rip Esselstyn Engine 2 diet is good and Chef AJ has a few books and a YouTube channel full of information. I like Simon Hill also. He has a YouTube and a book. I think there’s a free pdf on his website too.

DocMadeMeDoIt

Thank you so much, LizzyBird. I will be looking at those. I'm excited.

¿ What YouTube workout channels do you like and use often ?

I need a bigger library for when my motivation is low to non-existent. 2025 is for focusing on consistent INTENTIONAL weekly workouts, with no more than 2 day breaks in-between.

Channels I've used off and on for years:
Heather Robertson
JessicaSmithTv
FitnessBlender
Get Fit With Rick - newer find because of WayBetter and StepBet


With Son
Mister Teacher Alonso
Coach Corey Martin
GoNoodle
Cosmic Kids Yoga

I like Paul Eugene. He's just real. Older gentleman. Low impact to fast pace. Dancing, stepping, aerobics, Tabita, etc. He's a jolly man

Fleece

I like ATHLEAN-X. Jeff Cavaliere is a physical therapist and personal trainer who has coached professional sports teams. Very smart and fun videos with great tips.

I accidentally attached the wrong picture and my final weigh in was denied. How do I resubmit my final weight?

Patricia C.

I’m not sure but believe through the same channels as before. I’ve had mine denied before and the email told me to resubmit ..

Starlight

Did you get it fixed already? If not, Grace gave an email for help in her post below.
