Hello Heidi and Chris!
I love both of your opinions of why you like contestants to take off their clothes during weigh in. Loving and owning yourself in the now is SOOO important. If you can’t love yourself, how can you love anything else? And being that beacon of courage for other people is so empowering! I have the opposite effect. I do like weighing myself with my clothes off. It sheds a few oz on the scale (you will never catch me weighing with my clothes on).. lol! BUT.. I feel the most empowered when I measure around my waist. It tells me most accurately if I am on track because I am at a point in my physical transformation where I am gaining beautiful muscle (which as we all know weighs more than fat). So, if my waist line stays nice and trim (in accordance to my measurements) then I am a happy campier. I have a few more inches to go until I am at my target measurement. And I can use all the help that I can get so I opt to take my clothes off when I measure/weigh. =)
You guys are SOOO AMAZING!!~!

Thank you so much for your continued on line support. You walk your talk and I appreciate it so much.
I started your carb cycle just 10 days ago and I am doing well. I have a goal of losing 65-70 lbs by Sept. 2015. I do struggle to get the 5 meals in but am trying to work on that. I had my best friend take pictures of me yesterday with only my work out pants and just my bra. It was a very hard step for me but my friend was/is so proud and supportive of me. I’m glad I did it not only so I can see the difference at the end of my journey but because it forced me to look at myself as others see me, in the mirror I don’t see myself the same way as a photo so again thank you both for being such sincere coaches.
I would just like to see consistency. I understand that there are reasons to weigh in without a shirt. I just think that if your first weigh in is without a shirt then your last weigh in should be too. Whatever, you wear on the first weigh in – nothing, gym clothes, shorts, baggy shirt, fitted shirt, etc. That should be the last weigh in too. Just my opinion
First thank you for all that you both do. From this site to just simple tweets to keep us encouraged. My question is that I am someone (female 44) who has about 200 to lose. How do you suggest and accomplish the point of beginning from hardly being able to move to being able to say climb all those steps. I really want to someday be a runner. It’s in me somewhere, I just am having trouble finding her. Again, thank you and thanks for giving us the opportunity to ask questions.
Hey guys!!!
I think you guys are amazing!!!
I just want to know I recently joined the gym I’m overweight and really want to lose the weight it’s so hard! I’ve been told I have hypothyroidism and pcos and something else anyway my question is have you guys used the reAct machine? Is it a good machine to use at the gym as a workout tool??
So how do you love and accept who you are where you are at? I am finding this very hard to do and I want to be able to do this so that I can have success in my weight loss journey.
Hello Heidi

I wish you and all your family a happy and wonderful life
Love always, Joey
Hi Heidi and Chris, I’m Heloisa from Brazil and I just wanted to tell you how much I love your show. It’s so inspiring to watch you both changing people’s lives.
I have struggled with my weight and body image since I was 15 years old. My teenage years consisted of ups and downs. I suffered from bulimia, then ended up becoming obese (BMI of 30). I had therapy and it was great, but I still didn’t feel my relationship with food was a healthy one. It was time for me to decide what to study in University, and I believe that due to my history, I chose nutrition as my major. It was such a blessing to learn about my body and to change my habits and my relationship with food. I graduated 4 years ago and even though I followed a different career path, what I learned in University was priceless. I lost those 20 pounds gradually, changing my eating and exercising habits, and now I have a BMI of 24. I’m not completely satisfied with my body, and it’s so hard to lose those last pounds! I still have about 15 to go and it just seems impossible. I feel as if I got stuck in phase 3 and never finished my transformation. It makes me feel so powerless about myself, but every time I watch your show it gives me hope. If they can do it, I certainly can too! Thank you for being so awesome!
Lots of love,
Hel?
Thanks guys i truly enjoy listen to you and it all makes sense I am new at this left a email for Chris and he suggested asking the doc what i can do. But instead a great lady names Tracee is showing me the ropes and i feel that I might just beable to do this.
Grant it is will not do alot of the exercies that most do but modification works for me..I am joining a guy a no threat gym No huge bodybuilders and all. So i am excited about that. Also I thought i might try ice skating again Its only $6.00 for like two or three hours.
I KNOW I CAN DO THIS……..My word of the day get outta here fibromyalgia and Lupus, hour not welcome here..
