Hottie by the Holidays Week 1

Hey guys! I went down a pound this week, woo! It was honestly a miracle that I didn't gain any, considering that I had thanksgiving this week.

checking in. stayed the same for this week

While we're all eagerly awaiting week 3's results to be posted, here's a recipe from the "Hungry Girl" cookbook that I'm thinking about trying. To give you a point of reference, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups have 130 calories, 7g fat, and 14 carbs per cup (not per package).
chunky & nutty frozen pb cups
PER SERVING (1 pb cup): 78 calories, 2g fat,
123mg sodium, 11.5g carbs, 0.5g fiber, 2.5g
sugars, 2g protein

Ingredients
1 small (4-serving) package sugar-free fat-free
chocolate instant pudding mix
One 8-ounce container Cool Whip Free, thawed
2 ounces (about ½ cup) dry-roasted soy nuts
1 tablespoon mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon reduced-fat peanut butter, room
temperature
Directions
Place pudding mix in a medium bowl. Add 3 ounces
(¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons) warm water. Stir until
smooth and thickened, about 2 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon Cool Whip with
peanut butter until mixed well. Stir into the pudding
mixture.
Stir in half of the soy nuts and all of the mini chocolate
chips. Fold in remaining Cool Whip. You don’t need to
mix it in completely—the marble effect is cool.
Line a 12-cup muffin pan with baking cups and spray
with nonstick spray. Evenly distribute pudding mixture
among the cups. Sprinkle the tops of the cups with
remaining soy nuts.
Freeze until solid, about 1 hour. Store in the freezer
until ready to serve.
MAKES 12 SERVINGS
HG Tip! Eat or serve these within a day or so of
making them. After that, they’ll need to be slightly
thawed before eating.

Hello! If you've not done the board yet, can I update you of my new loss. I am now at 182, woop woop.

I'm back!

Unfortunately, due to much pigging out on our honeymoon, I won't be weighing in again until November 1st. I don't want to get discouraged and I need to get my body back to a healthier place. I need to detox for a bit. Too much delicious international food and wine fest at Epcot :-P

I'll keep in touch til weigh in!

Good luck on Monday, ladies!

Down another 1.2 pounds!

I went from 226.9 last week to 222 today.:happy:

Hello Hotties!
Last week- 162.5
This week- 164


I made the PB cups I wrote about above, and they are fabulous! My boyfriend went back for seconds. I would recommend adding a few tablespoons more water to the pudding, and another tablespoon of peanut butter. Divided by 12, an extra tablespoon isn't going to change the nutritional information too much, and they could stand to be a little more peanut buttery.

I have completed 30 days of my 10 lb slimdown workout plan, and I've decided to start it again. I think I'm going to go back to 5 lb weights though; I'm having a hard time completing the full circuit with 10 lb-ers,

What's your favorite workout routine? Anyone found something they really enjoy that works for them?

checking in.

Down to 219

I'm down to 146.2 this week. Slowly, but surely, it's coming off. I'm hoping that since I got a new elliptical for my b-day, I can speed things up a little bit!!

Hi Everyone sorry I missed last weeks weigh in I've been away from mfp for a week and a half now! Had a weigh in this morning and I'm still 159lb which is the same as a few weeks ago. Back on track now though!! Good luck for the rest of the week :-)

Count me In!
Name: Carolyn
Current Weight: 132
Goal by Christmas: 128

I know its only 4lbs, but it took me 1.5 months to loose 2.5lbs so hopefully I will be able to loose 4 by Christmas!

Hi everyone!

Last week I was 173.4 (I think?) and today I am 172.4, so it is a loss but I am still a little up from where we were when we started the challenge. Fortunately all of my eating challenges (family in town, weekends out of town) are behind me for the foreseeable future so hopefully I can get back into the groove of my healthy eating/workout routines!

Hope you all had a great last week and weekend

Hi! Last week 222, this week 220.7. A bit confusing, my weight was going up and then down again during last week...

135.4 today.

Would anyone else be willing to do the charts with everyone's progress? I've noticed it hasn't been up for like 4 weeks.
