    Hi,

    I just went with 300 cals less that the cals suggested in MFP. This let me go over slightly and still meet the goals.
    Just made my initial goal of 169 lbs. 47 lbs lost. MFP works since its just all of us motivating each other and making small changes. Way to go

    Hey Kim,

    I also make alot of chicken lol. But a really easy one, non-chicken, I make shrimp in a fry pan with a little oil and chili powder and put it over one of those Near-East whole grain couscous (5mintue on stove!). I mix in a little chopped pineapple to give it a little more flavor and it's a nice spicy/sweet combo. I am going to call it Creole meets Hawaiian lol but I love it, and it's def not chicken hahaha

    Oh def, I actually go to the gym 5 times a week since last April. I have a great friend who meets me so we leverage each other to go. We do a lot of different classes so we get the best effects and I must say I have toned up considerably but the weight has never come off until I reall combine it with a steady diet which died after Thanksgiving lol. But this website I believe is going to get me there.

    If anyone is looking for some really fun exercise try Zumba! I teach it and I have been taking classes as well. If you like to dance (you do not have to know "how" to dance) you will love it! And it burns a ridiculous amount of calories too! Go to the website and "find a class" trust me you'll love it :)
