  • That bakery is about an hour from me. I wonder if I should go there sometime.
  • Yes, they have their own app, health mate that works on iPhone and I also downloaded my weight and synced it to that app for more useful info. I didn't get happy scale because I didn't want to pay at the time, although it was only $4:99, lol. I do like it linked with my weight, it gives you BMI, how many calories to eat to…
  • Ok ladies, just came from the wegmans that's been working with me for enlightened flavors. Look what I have!!!
  • You have the Nokia/withings one and I like it. I also use the my weight app with it which I like a lot. Has a lot of useful info there. I do not sync it to MFP so that it won't update my weight here daily, I just add it into MFP manually on Sundays.
  • I had a fleur de lis tummy tuck last year. Had one drain for A little over three weeks. While they are annoying, they're not a big deal. They don't hurt much to take out if they're taken out when they should be and not too early while it's still too swollen or sore. Having my thighs and bum done in 4.5 weeks and will have…
  • Thank you Julie. I'm so excited, and scared. I have a feeling this one is going to be much more painful and more recovery than the other. That said, I have hated my thighs for 20 years! And my bum looks much like yours did before your surgery, probably worse. Lol... looking forward to seeing the results. I'm going to look…
  • I'm 5'7". Started at 255, thought my goal weight was 160, currently bouncing between 153-155 and would like to get to 150 I think. I'm sitting comfortably in a size 6 pant and medium tops are a little loose on me. Once you get into healthy goal range I think you will need to reassess as you go until you feel happy.
  • I've lost 100 pounds as well and have terrible loose skin. I had a vertical tummy tuck with a small horizontal cut also, and had my arms done at the same time. I had no problems like the above poster did. I went back to work in 8 days and I'm a hairdresser. I'm having my thighs and bum done July 31. Last but not least I…
  • I won the popcorners and Belgian boys cookie giveaway on Facebook! Thanks to @hgycta for introducing me to these giveaways! I still haven't won an ice cream one yet but i keep trying. Just entered another enlightened one. I bought the chocolate chip and chocolate chocolate chip Lenny and Larry's 2 oz cookies today at…
  • I have this on my list of recipes to try. I would do it in a dutch oven in the oven, not the crock pot, but it would be the same recipe. https://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=1702176
  • I ate my Lenny and larry peanut butter chip cookie last night. Loved it! Was going to eat half and microwave half but I ate it too quick because it was good and never got to the microwave. Lol... looking forward to trying the other flavors! I have birthday cake and apple pie. What else should I get? On another note, I hit…
  • @Noreenmarie1234 I would email them those pictures and tell them. I still haven't tried them yet. Thinking tonight. Should I warm them or are there certain flavors that taste better warm?
  • Omg, those look so good! I love peanut butter. What is the nutritional info on those? I still have yet to try the Lenny and Larry cookies. Maybe I'll try one in place of ice cream tonight. Maybe. Where is the sale for Lenny and larrys? Speaking of which, I got the cold brew enlightened this week and ate the whole thing…
  • I hardly eat any vegetables. I'm just not big on them. The only ones I hate are spinach, asparagus, broccoli, and cauliflower. I can eat spinach of it's in things and baby spinach in a salad. You don't have to eat vegetables. I've lost 99 pounds not eating them and I'm eating 1500/day. Why do you have 400 calories left…
  • Look what came today! Thanks @skelterhelter for the email address. She sent them right out! Looks like it's a different size for the samples. Too bad they don't sell this size. Seems perfect!
  • I would never buy the non dairy ones... or halo top for that matter. Enlightened is way better! I am fully stocked with enlightened in my freezer right now. Whole Foods and BJs have specials on them right now. $3.49 at whole foods by me, BJs has chocolate peanut butter and fudge brownie cookie dough in three packs for…
  • I just log what I eat there when I do eat samples. It's pretty easy actually because you know exactly what it is. Sometimes I ask them how many pieces they cut something into if it's that kind of food. One cookie thin is easy, etc. I have found everything from there in the database. It usually adds up to about 150, not…
  • @DogServant thank you!
  • Premier protein ready to drink shakes are my go to for coffee. The vanilla and the caramel are light like half and half, I also use the chocolate and sometimes mix them. This way I'm getting something nutritious in the way of protein out of my coffee.
  • The chilly cow did nothing for me either. Boring tasting @skelterhelter you got your cookies too? Did you call her? I might have to do that too
  • My mini goal at the moment is to hit 100 pounds lost. 2.2 pounds to go!
  • @jenilla1 Totally missed this! The two ingredient dough is fat free plain Greek yogurt and self rising flour. Here's the recipe for the cinnamon ones. I just used dark chocolate chips instead. Light butter if I use butter. Made little ones.…
  • I'm so with you! I'm 2.2 pounds away from 100 pounds gone. It's a huge milestone and I want it so bad! My birthday is in 4 days and I would love to have hit it for that... maybe I should start weight lifting and zig zagging... lol
  • @mom23mangos that's a tough one! I've seen so many awesome bands/performers! It's my favorite thing to do. Def Leppard, journey, foreigner, Elton John, Billy Joel, Janet Jackson, madonna, tesla, Styx, Sade, Barbara Streisand, Bette midler, Luther vandross, the eagles, ozzy, bon jovi, the scorpions, Diana Ross, heart,…

SW- 254.6 CW- 157.2 GW- I'm past my original goal weight and lowering it 5 pounds at a time until I'm happy. Thinking 150 right…
  • 254.6-157.4 for first two pics, the back shot in the purple was a month ago, I weighed 163.6, not done yet, but this is my progress so far. I'm 5'7"
  • Ha! That's awesome. This works so well for me. Yes, iced coffee with protein mixed in. Usually 6 oz of either almond/cashew or simply smart milk, and vanilla and chocolate protein powders, sometimes premier protein ready to drinks, (vanilla, chocolate caramel) if it's hot coffee, always the premier protein. 160-180…
  • I Changed my eating schedule. I drink a protein coffee all morning, eat meals at 2:30,5:15, and 8:15, then a snack at 10-10:30. This helped tremendously.
  • I have the Fitbit versa, waterproof, lasts about 5 days on a charge, looks better than a band, heartrate seems pretty accurate so far. It might be overestimating my calorie burn for the day a but, but not by much if it is. I will know that better when I get to maintenance soon.
  • I have good news. I stopped into my wegmans today and followed up with the manager. The new Enlightened flavors are ordered will be there within a few weeks. Marshmallow peanut butter, smores and glazed donut! He ordered them from the vendor/supplier already! I love this guy!
