    Dancing to music TV - get the puppy and kids to join in! Take a note of the time and log it as 'dancing' - it should burn up to 10 calories per minute :smile:

    Welcome to mfp. This is a great place to get motivation and support. You can try the Wii fit game. They are probably cheaper than a tread mill. Im sure there are also aerobic workouts on dvd. Count all your food, drink you water and don't starve yourself. Feel free to add me as a friend :-)

    oh ok! so does the protein fill you up and taste good? I was thinking acai or strawbery n bananas sound good?

    Yes, the protein will help to "feel full". Your combo sounds great!

    I find that pretzels really help that afternoon snacking but be careful how much you eat. I just added you as a friend.
