    Uh oh!!!! I have never been there but they MUST have salads, just get the healthiest looking one and get the dressing on the side, or maybe a grilled chicken sandwich... be careful with the veggies... a lot of times restaurants put a lot of butter on them... have a good time!

    ok so it was good last night. I ordered a grilled chicken breast dry with a side salad dressing on the side. It wasn't on the menu but they were very helpful and worked with me. :smile: and the games were actually fun! haha.

    25 here, almost 26. I've accomplished a lot, but I'm still not where I want to be. But I'll gladly support anyone who needs help.

    Hi everyone!

    I'm 24 and would love to join this board to help motivate me even more :)

    I downloaded the iphone app and it's been great so far, I've obsessed over making sure I plug in each thing I eat - which has been very eye opening! I am on here to loose the extra 40lbs I am lugging around - on a 5'2 frame - eekk!

    My boyfriend, mom, and dad are all using the site too, but it would be nice to talk to some more people my age about your experiences, challenges, and success :)

    Have a healthy day!
    - Cate

    Welcome Cate!! Its good to have that motivation at home!!

    Well we need another challange!! I've been getting pretty discouraged lately it seems like im doing everything right yet im gaining weight, and i don't know if its because im drinking a significant amount of more water or what. I deffintly havn't been working out enough, but i havn't had anytime to, but im going to start logging in my food better and trying to get into the gym to see if it helps me out more!!

    Well I hope you all are having better luck then me in the last few weeks!!

    What are some good ideas for a challenge?

    My goal for this week is to make smart overall meal choices. This week starts my horrible work schedule and for the forseeable future, so I need to choose better items when we order take out for lunches/dinners. Just not going to work to pack that much food, considering two weeks i will be away in hotels.

    Yesterday i was good for lunch - i ordered from Chili's the good grill choice of Carne Asada Steak with Broccoli/Carrots which was around 450 calories. Very fillings, plus way better calorie wise than just about anything on the menu.

    Great Job!! Keep it up!

    Thats a good idea. I also think this week should really aim at choosing the healthiest foods to eat like if were ganna go out we should consider the healthier side of the menu. Because I know everytime I go out to eat and eat something unhealthy it usually messes up my next day or two too. Just a thought?
