PB2 (peanut butter powder, it's low cal) A honey bear A small fold-out food scale (like this one https://www.josephjoseph.com/en-us/product/triscale/) Dried fruit packets Some single-serve supplement packets, for natural energy or nutrients etc. (I got some of these for adult Easter baskets this year) A lovely candle…

Thanks, Connie! :)

There's sugar in the syrup, but if your location still has the iced peach green tea refresher, it's delicious! Also some Starbucks sell the naturally flavored waters, and granola bars, dried fruit packets, etc. You'll get through this Starbucks visit just fine. :)

Faye, that's a great loss! Try to weigh yourself again on Saturday or Sunday, that pound you put on might just be fluctuating water weight! :) I'm looking forward to weighing tomorrow, I hope the scale is generous in it's loss. I'm feeling "not good enough" again a little as far a loss so far, just because I will be around…

Great job! This is an awesome app. :)

Such great work and dedication. (*)

Wow! You did great!!

Nice work and dedication!

Luckily I'm learning to be a Moderator. I have a kind of chip that I could just eat the entire bag of, but I measure out just 10 of them and have it with breakfast some mornings. I love them, and I love that I can still eat them.

Marie, you could get one of those tiny Ben & Jerry's ice creams, once it's gone it's gone. :smile:

Italy, welcome! Connie, give it a week or two. Just burn more calories than you consume and you should see a difference soon enough. Glad you're seeing sunshine, Shirley. It's supposed to be in the 60's here this week too, and also with rain. I guess I'll accept that.

I can't believe it's April! What happened??!? Haha. I kind of want to make an April Fool's post in the general forums here and title it "I lost 20 lbs. in 2 days!", but I think too many people would think I was serious and have my head. :p I hope everyone is having a sunny day! I'd love to hear if anyone pulled any pranks…

My day was going bright and sunny until right before I got to class. Someone tried to drive in to my car(and two lanes of moving traffic), and then one of the guys in class likes to ram his chair in to mine every time I have to sit adjacent to him. It's not cool, and there's no way he doesn't know what he's doing. He also…

Great work, Nancy! I'm excited for you to fit into those slacks! Clothes are so much more validating than the scale. :)

I think I'm going to print this list out each month, hang it somewhere I can see it, and fill it out on the last day of each month. :)

Great work!

Thank you!!! :D Now I just need to find them again. I hope you feel better very soon! Stephanie, you have all the tools for success! Keep using them and you'll feel so good about yourself when you get home. Esther: Get some crystalized ginger chunks(you can even pretend it's candy :smile: ), or some Yogi brand ginger tea.…

I got a new pair of jeans today. From my closet! New, with tags, from probably 6 years ago. They're slightly loose in the legs. But that'll do! :)

I just got the Ninja complete kitchen system, I really like it. You can purchase just the blender separately also. I believe they have 2 or 3 different styles/models of blender. The complete system comes with "bullet" style attachments though, so you can blend up a single smoothie to go, if you need to.

Me too. B)

That's so exciting!

Awesome! You can do this! Let's kick the "Freshman 15" fad in the butt! I started college earlier this month, and started back with MFP in late January. They keep giving out nachos and cheese to students, haha. I keep passing. Just keep in mind, if we can't control ourselves and our bodies, how are we supposed to control…

Wow, you have a great waist!

This is so true! In the beginning of my journey I did just this! It works, once I'd gotten dressed I had to go. (*)

Great loss, Eileen! It's great when the scale finally moves. I can't weight til the warm weather comes back, either! We had a few really nice days and then we got flurries yesterday. And it was so cold today, it's crazy!

Happy Birthday, Janice! Becky, I hope your son is able to keep his finger. :/ It's deceptively sunny out today. It's so cold! I'm really trying to not turn the heat on, but it's 60 degrees in here. I get cold and hot easily though. :P I'm really loving the ladies in my apt. office. Another one came over to me yesterday and…

Personally I've never used what MFP tallies for me. I also don't trust what the machine in the gym tells me. Typically I take what the equipment tells me(such as treadmill, eliptical) and subtract atleast 100 calories from what it says, and then manually enter it in to MFP. I also don't track things like cleaning, or…

Excellent job! I don't think I'll even know what to think when I reach goal, haha. Very well done. (*)

Awesome work!!!

It's an awesome feeling! Congratulations and keep enjoying it. :)
