Zumba is a lot of fun and its low impact. you can find videos on YouTube or go to a zumba class they probably have them at your local gym. fitnessblender.com has workouts that are low impact I don't find them boring, I usually just put some music on in the background.

Good point.

I won't tell you what I was thinking although I'm sure you can guess. Right now it's a skinny cow salted caramel pretzel candy bar. It a'int haagen dazs but it gets the job done I guess.

thanks I was going to ask!

I'm not necessarily a newbie, but I'm new to the community and so sometimes I send a message, sometimes I don't, but I am also not interested in randomly adding people because I actually read and post status updates and comment on people's status. That would be annoying with thousands of friends lol. Btw I hope you don't…

haha my best friend is on my list and I keep begging her to come back but same here I won't delete her lol

That's exactly how I feel! I saw this site as more casual and less threatening than a dating website where you have to watch out for trolls. But apparently some people have been burned by salesmen and friend collectors out there. I'm new to the community aspect of mfp, I used to go it alone. But so far I have received…

Wow, I never knew about the sales people. I haven't encountered any creepy guys on here but I have noticed that in my news feed some of my friends have lists that grow everyday and it makes me wonder. Now I'm starting to see it differently and I'll be more careful abut who I add. When I send a friend request it's because I…

Thanks Ladies! I appreciate the tips and will definitely be using them. I like the portioned out snacks and swapping out something else healthier that is salty or sweet.

Thanks everyone! These are all great!

Hey you're talking to the smoothie queen over here! Yesterday I had a Pina Colada smoothie for breakfast: 1/2 cup of fresh pineapple, 1 table spoon of chia seeds, 6 cubes of ice 1/2 a banana, and 1/2 cup of vanilla coconut milk. I like the company so delicious. My favorite is the classic strawberry banana: 1/2 banana and 1…

Hey I'm a college student I've lost 58 lbs total since I started my weight loss journey. I gained some of it back during college but with the help of mfp I am healthier now and I lost the weight I gained back. In the past, I would always just log and go about my day but i've become more involved in the community and…

From what it sounds like, I think your Doctor was suggesting that you have surgery not saying that it is absolutely 100% your only option. Don't let this scare you. I am going to agree with what other people have posted and say get a second opinion and make sure to let whoever you consult with know that you have lost…

Thanks! I'll have to try it

I am obsessed with Greek Yogurt, and Chobani flips are my favorite. The best ones imo are the almond choco loco and key lime crunch. They are good to indulge in guilt free. However if you want the health benefits of yogurt but want fewer calories and sugar, I highly recommend Chobani Greek simply 100 or triple zero. 100…

Hey I'm so glad I found this, it's funny, just today I was thinking it would be nice to have some support from someone who use fitness pal as much as I do. I'm a college student as well and I'm trying to get fit. I've lost 21 lbs so far and my goal is to lose another 30. Iv'e recommended it to all of my friends and they…
