I now wear mine on my ankle. I found a band on Amazon and another on Etsy.

Here is a quick one someone gave me: Large canned tomatoes that are spiced with peppers or onions or herbs. Boneless chicken (thighs or breasts). Serve over rice. Here is another simple and good one we like. Beef & Peppers 2 pounds round steak, trimmed 2 medium green bell peppers, sliced thin 1/2 medium onion, finely…

I'm joining in on this challenge. I'm usually not good at posting much but I will try to do a better job with it here. I have been doing more walking since the fall and enjoy hanging out with like minded people. I wanted to focus on walking indoors this winter because I get terrible winter blues and knew this one would be…

I just bought some recently and keep forgetting to use them. I need to follow this post for ideas.

I'm joining in. My goal is 75 miles with Leslie for the month.

I joined MFP 4 years ago yesterday. I haven't used it all that time but am trying to get back into the habit as it was once very beneficial to me. I am 52 and began my struggles with weight about 10 years ago. I've always been semi active off and on but never had a consistent pattern. I had been doing very well and felt…

I'm in! Since I'm just getting going, I am going to set my goal for 60 miles for the month. I got one in yesterday and another this morning already. I just found out about and printed the Great Walk Challenge sheets so I am going to post those up and use for reminder and motivation.

I just found out about StepBet. Did you find it helpful?

I'm here and ready for the challenge!!!

Getting ready to start it under direction of dietitian. Looks difficult.

I met with my dietitian yesterday and that's what she wants me to try. I'm not looking forward to it. It does not look easy to follow. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that onions and garlic are not issues for me!

50 is just around the corner for me too. I keep saying I am going to get back on track but I only take action for a couple of days at a time. It has been a difficult year for me but it is time that I get myself in gear.

If you add greens in your smoothies, you will get lots of vitamins. There are tons of recipes on-line but I prefer to just keep it simple. One of my favorites is banana, apple, ginger, and a green (spinach, kale, or Swiss chard). Sometimes I use almond milk (my preference) but I also use water and coconut milk or water on…

I have 3 slow cookers - 4, 5, & 6 quart. The smaller one is a Hamilton Beach, I believe. Th3 5 quart is Crock-Pot brand SCRP500-SP 5-Quart Smudge Proof Slow Cooker. It is my favorite. I have no idea on the large one. The two smaller are programmable. If I need to program the large one, I just have a $3 light timer that I…

I'm new too!

Working out first thing in the morning and then go for a walk in the late afternoon.

I like to join smoothie challenges at simplegreensmoothies.com. These are very simple smoothie recipes. I use my Blentec for all kinds of things but green smoothies are my favorite. I was going to copy and paste my favorite recipe in here but the fact is that I like just about all of them.

I have tried 2 of the L&G recipes from sandyskitchen.com and was very impressed. I am going to try the Crockpot Buffalo Chicken tomorrow. Can't wait!

I'm new to Medifast and excited that you are all here! I've been logging everything in MFP for a couple of months now but only started the plan 2 weeks ago.

2 weeks and 6 pounds for me.

Routine is important. I drink it first thing in the morning before I do anything else. I drink it the last thing just before bed. I keep water with me at all times. I set an alarm on my fitbit to go off every 2 hours during the day. When the alarm vibrates, I finish the water beside me and get up to refill it.

My favorite juice is apple, beet, carrots (4-6). Sometimes I add celery, spinach, 1/2 cucumber, or even ginger. It is an excellent juice. As to smoothies, I only make green ones. There are so many combinations but I get into slumped myself. simplegreensmoothies.com has lots of good recipes. They do a 30 day smoothie…

Oh these look so good!

Is there a way to add this into 'recipe' section on my MFP? (I'm a newbie with MFP.) I want to save it because it is so good.
