Hips and thighs size!

I am the same that is why I don't eat oatmeal very often. Maybe once a month and just for a change but I have to have some cottage cheese too to increase my protein. I actually crash after eating oatmeal. Not a good feeling.

Nope, summer is easy with lighter foods and lost of fruit and veggies. Good time of the year to get hydrated too. I don't drink beer and ice cream is not something that I crave either so that helps. On the other hand and to be very honest, I live in S.California, so we don't have harsh winters that can affect much the way…

Your weight gain was not due to tubal ligation.

I always eat breakfast unless a blood test or procedure requires fasting. Twelve hours between dinner the day before and breakfast the following morning is enough for me. I don't have a big breakfast, but I do need to eat something, specially with protein, or a crush midday.

I don't binge, I never did. I am never that hungry or find a reason for doing it. I eat to live, not the other way around, and I would be very sick if I ate more than "my" normal. For my a celebration doesn''t mean to stuff myself with food. I hope that you find a balance between enjoyment and eating. Congratulations on…

As for the bolded part, sorry but not everybody thinks that. Just saying... and by the way, I prefer corn tortillas

On vacation: no scale; no cooking, except for breakfast; no logging; portion control; not much exercise except for walking and in general not gaining for than 2 lbs.

@aleryan1 Thank you!

None, I track my own fitness :) and I am doing fine.

Try walking barefoot outside in a 120F degree weather. Even the free radicals will be scorched. And shall the people living in Boston walk barefooted in the middle of January...? I don't like to walk barefoot unless I am walking in carpeted floor, the exception is when I am taking Yoga or Pilates class, otherwise not!

With respect to the Recipe Builder, make sure that after you re done entering all the ingredients and determining the portions, that you print the recipe, if you are using the MFP website. Mine hasn't been working for over 2 weeks and I can't build new recipes, edit or even get to the old ones to see what ingredients I…

Don't kid yourself. Just because you are or may be a size 0 or 00 in a particular clothing style or brand doesn't mean that it is you actual size. What we all agree in here that regardless of our measurements and sizes the clothing industry and the manufacturers are the ones that dictate what size clothing we wear, and…

Dinner between 7 and 7:30PM in the summer; a bit earlier during the winter. Desert between 8 and 8:30PM and after that the kitchen is closed. The only thing that I have is water. I go to bed around 11:30 or 11:45PM or a little later during the weekend, and I usually have 11 or 12 hrs fasting between dinner and breakfast.…

Just like @Anniebotnen said: Nope, I don't but I don't nibble much or too frequent either. If try something while I am cooking, I don't log it; I get a small cracker when I get a glass of water, I don't log it. I do log my afternoon snacks and my meals, but that is more food and calories. I have been maintaining for almost…

Sorry to be blunt but peer pressure should be left behind once we graduate from high school. "No thank you" without further explanation should be sufficient, and if they keep pushing just walk away or be very clear but polite with your message. An evil look also helps... >:)

CHICOS in the USA also carry odd sizing. I wear Chicos' pants 00 that are really a size 4 petite for other stores. They are still wide for my waist but they fit OK around my hips, maybe a little bit to lose, and the capris sit just above my ankles. I tried Chico's 00 petite and they are too small around the hips. So we…

I am 72 years old and today in the morning my wt. was 102.4lb (4 feet 11 inches). I am very active and obviously not obese, fat or overweight. My HR s usually between the high 60s and mid 70s, and my doctor considers that a great range, and I feel good. I don't have a HR monitor so I don't test my resting HR all the time.…

Body scale, clothes and mirror (not my friend), are my tools to maintain. I don't count so much on the measuring tape because it fluctuates more than the scale and that is because I suck at taking measurements so I measure myself once in awhile or when I remember, which is not often. I like to add that I have been…

Now I want watermelon!

I grew up eating fruit and cheese for desert; cakes were reserved for special occasions and something that I didn't eat much or at all due to health reason. My mother was a great and healthy cook but not a baker. I am the same, I don't bake and I don't care for sweets either, and I also prefer savory foods. Most of the…

Find out what you hate about your life and do something about it. Change it or change your attitude. Complains and rants without an action plan will get you nowhere. Good luck!

Some links for you with information to consider. Remember Google is your friend. Good luck! http://greatist.com/move/quiet-home-workout https://www.fitnessblender.com/videos/quiet-cardio-workout-low-impact-apartment-cardio-workout https://www.pinterest.com/explore/quiet-workout/…

For me a 2oz dry serving of pasta is for two people, not for one, regardless of what is written in the package. Add lots of vegetables and you have enough food without going over the carbs. But I agree with some of the comments saying that some people may interpret the new labeling as being "allowed" to eat more. Basically…

What's "down" with my boobs? Band remained the same (32), cup went up from a D to a DD, and for a 4 feet 11 inches, 102.8 lb older person that is a lot to carry (thanks Mom!). Perkiness is not where to be found and I only had 12lbs to lose. We can't win ladies.

I have been maintaining for almost six years and now I don't count or log when I am on vacation, or when I eat out (friend, family or restaurant), unless the information is listed in the restaurant website. I don’t estimate my food intake. That is how I keep my sanity and control my obsession. A couple of years ago I got…

When I have a doctor's appointment. I weight myself at home in the morning and just before leaving for the doctors' office, without shoes and with the same clothes that I will be wearing for the appointment. At the doctor's office, the scale usually registers 3 to 4 more lbs than my morning fasting weight, and about 2lbs…

Try these links: One is a youtube presentation for chair yoga and the other is for chair yoga DVDs. https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=chair%20yoga%20youtube https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=chair%20yoga%20dvd

Thank you for your service to this country and good luck with you surgeries and goals <3

I don't log at all when I am eating at a friend's house or at a restaurant, unless I find the nutritional information on line. I make notes in the Comment section of my diary listing what I ate as clearly as possible and let it go. I usually don't eat my exercise calories during the week so I have extra room for the…
