Here's where you can share what's on your mind. Recipes, ideas, workouts, anything that you think might be helpful to others.
Maybe, you've tried something that has worked for you in the past and would like to share it with the group. Maybe, you have a NSV (Non Scale Victory) that you would like to share with the group. Anything that you feel comfortable sharing or anything that you feel comfortable asking the group with help....this is the place to come.
The GOOD!! What NSV did you have this week!!
The BAD!! So what....you ate the whole thing!!
The UGLY!! That darn scale went through the window this week....it deserved it too!!

I'm starting my healthy eating adventure again. I'm going to try a low carb approach this time. My cousin was here this weekend from Houston and she looked great! She did the low carb diet and just maintained 10k steps per day. I'm going to add exercise to my approach. I just prefer to incorporate healthy eating and exercise together. I'm not saying extreme exercise, but at a minimum of 30 minutes per day. I have a Curves membership now. I go to Planet Fitness with my little brother and use his bring a friend perk. Now I have four support systems Curves, Planet Fitness, My Fitbit and this new MFP forum.

I started with a good NSV today. I tried on some outfits that I couldn't zip up a few weeks ago and they fit!! Tight but comfortable fit.
Also I wasn't particularly hungry today. Last couple of weeks I had been really really hungry and just didn't know when that would become bearable. It has finally5 -
NSV - current exercise capris (back pockets essential to hold Wii nunchucks) don't stay up very well while jogging on the mini-trampoline if I'm not wearing a belt.4

After a late August doctor’s appointment yielded another scary cholesterol report, finally committed to doing something about it. Revisited the MFP weight loss routine that has worked for me in the past, and got fully motivated to follow it faithfully September 10. Today my first full monthly progress report showed 11.5 pounds lost. 24 to go... Thanks for this challenge, it is timely and helps keep me focused! GLTA!4

I have managed to stay under 150 for 4 out of 7 days this week (the three in the middle being recovery from my 60th birthday dinner extravaganza.
It's been a long time for me too. Fancy and favorite packed-away clothes are finally starting to fit again .... and some clothes I bought in early May are starting to get a bit big .....4 -

Tried a new product for lunch today...Trader Joe's Cauliflower Gnocchi. It's a Gluten Free, low calorie substitute for pasta if you like gnocchi. Still trying to decide if I like lumps of pasta, though. There is absolutely no cauliflower taste to the product. Today, I pan fried it and added chopped tomatoes, diced onions, spinach and a small amount of pesto rosso. Need to try some other recipes before I make a determination as to whether I like it well enough for a re-purchase. Anyone else tried it...and your preparation method?0
