50 pounds down TODAY! Woot! Celebration post!

Heeeey- they changed my naughty word to "kitten." Big butt appetite is what I meant. I don't eat cat. "Big kitten appetite" sounds even naughtier MFP. Just saying.

So, I'm going to be completely honest here. I'm lazy, and I don't enjoy exercising. When I was in high school, I played a lot of sports and was super active, but that didn't feel like exercise to me. I would so be down for a game of ball, but an hour of cardio or weights or whatever just is not my jam. I know that about…

The struggle is real. Lol!

Bloated. Lol.

I hear ya about the peanut butter! Try the whipped kind from Jiffy. It's more spreadable and fluffy and makes you feel like you're having more lol!

Do you have a favorite recipe you could share?

Yum!

Thanks, guys!

Ooo! I'm going to try that! Thanks!

Sugar-free Fudge Pops- 40 calories. Gets the job done!

Congrats on starting the journey! Well, if you stick with your calorie limits, your first 22 will be off in a breeze! First, I'd calculate your BMR- that will give you an estimate of how many calories your body naturally burns at rest. So when you have a bad day- just make sure you don't eat over that calorie limit. There…

Good luck!

I was soooo satisfied with my din din tonight! Browned ground turkey with garlic and onion powder and the garlic and herb Mrs. Dash and about 2/3 of a can of no-salt added tomatoes that was drained. Scooped that on top of a bed of roasted spaghetti squash. I had PLENTY of leftover calories for some parm on top! So…
