  • Sun Chips peppercorn ranch and Cheetos mighty zinger Cajun ranch were my favorite snacks a few years ago
  • I found some today and got them for a bargain because the sign was mislabeled. I'm intrigued. There were also some grape jelly and gummy candy flavored ones at the store too. I had kept hearing about them but never saw them till today.
  • I would love new friends!
  • Hard boiled eggs work well for me
  • I hope they're coming out with new flavors! Arctic Zero is trash imo.
  • Hard boiled eggs The brisket at my job (I work in a Tex-Mex restaurant)
  • Cantaloupe, peaches, fresh corn on the cob, tomatoes right off the vine, cucumber, grilled anything. I love the smell of the grill going. The other day a co-worker brought cherry tomatoes from his garden, and they were the best I'd had!
  • Steps from the last week: 6-7-20 11,404 6-8-20 10,793 6-9-20 8,889 (slow day at work) 6-10-20 10,827 6-11-20 7,691 (slower than Tuesday) 6-12-20 7,707 (about the same as Thursday) 6-13-20 192 (off work) 6-14-20 11,944 (new personal best!!) It's weigh-in for me in the morning. Going to see a loss!
  • Monster: Absolutely Zero, Ultra Violet Reign: Peach Fizz (I think that's the name) Bang: Peach (I love peach flavored stuff...), Cherry Limeade Venom: Strawberry Kiwi, Citrus Game Fuel: had one today that was (I think) blackberry infused lemonade The Venom is made by the Dr Pepper company and Game Fuel is a Mtn Dew…
  • Third day since Sunday I've hit over 10,000 steps at work! Getting excited about this! I'm finding myself purposefully taking more steps while I'm working. Feeling energized these last couple of days. Even Tuesday night at work was kinda slow, and I still got over 8,000 steps in that day. I used to think 10,000 steps was…
  • These are some good ideas. Usually I crave something salty or crunchy. Today (Tuesday) at lunch I had a pouch of tuna with dill pickle slices for crunch and fresh cherries for dessert. It was really good!

  • I use canned chicken to make stir fry
  • I don't like watermelon or mango
  • I hit my protein goal today! I'm going to be joining a gym soon, when my workout buddy comes back from vacation. Been binge watching My 600 Pound Life and it's making me want to work harder to lose these extra pounds.
  • Hi everyone! I'm restarting (again) as of June 1st. Last week I weighed in at 231.6 and this morning I was at 230. Yay me! I'm 42, and 5 feet tall. My goal for June is to focus on better eating, making conscious decisions on what I eat. I'm finding myself purposefully taking more steps at work, and 2 days in a row logged…
  • Y'all can add me!
  • 5 ft nothing here! Restarted my journey a week ago. Restarted at 231.6 and now at 230. Feeling good after the first week (again)!! Y'all feel free to add me!
  • It's a small RV park, so not a whole lot of people there. Not sure how many are coming. Messaged the manager and she's going to get someone to bring me some diet Dr pepper. I've got a plan!! I'm so excited for this picnic...

  • They are also planning games I think, so win-win! There's a tether ball, and maybe someone's bringing yard games. It's going to be fun!

  • I'm in the process of rebuilding my spice rackso I'm loving this!!
  • I've learned about cooking in a hotel room out of necessity. First thing I bought was an electric skillet. Second was a countertop oven. Both were a lifesaver! Plus the hotel had a microwave. I'm not sure if you have a microwave or not. Hold on, let me get some ideas together.
  • I'm restarting again after a lengthy absence. Anyone can feel free to add me! I'm definitely needing motivation and accountability!
  • I'm a snacker. I don't eat a lot when I eat regular meals, and I can be satisfied from a Jr cheeseburger, small fries, and a drink. Sometimes what others call a snack I call a meal. Drives my husband crazy. Or I'd eat a pint of ice cream and chips. That was a meal. It isn't how much I eat that's caused my weight gain. It's…
  • Y'all are making me hungry for roasted veggies! I live in an RV and my countertop oven finally breathed its last, so I have to save for its replacement. I LOVE roasted Brussels sprouts! I've converted many people to liking them! Question...since my oven is out and I now want roasted veggies, do you have any suggestions? I…
  • Peach tea is my favorite iced tea, followed by regular sweet tea and raspberry tea. For hot tea, depends on my mood and time of year. I love Earl Grey, English Breakfast, Irish Breakfast, Lady Grey, Lipton herbal orange tea, peppermint sleepy time tea, and chai tea.
  • I agree with the frozen veg. I use them all the time. I use canned fruit a lot, but watch for those packed in syrup. I tend to get individual cups of oranges, peaches, pineapple, or applesauce.
  • In the summer I like to make this fruit salad: 1 lb strawberries, quartered Small container blueberries Green grapes 1 (16 oz) can pineapple tidbits 1 (16 oz) can mandarin oranges Drain canned fruits. Mix all together, gently because the oranges will break. Let chill several hours or overnight. It's so yummy! I took 2 9x13…
  • Taco Bell has cantina items that are packed with protein. Also, if you order Fresco Style, it adds pico de gallo and takes away cheeses and site cream. A bean burrito fresco style is pretty good. Burger King has a veggie burger that's pretty decent, but I'm not sure about calorie count. Wendy's has some very good salad…
  • I work at Denny's. Those are good! White chips in the pancakes, vanilla cream, raspberries, and white chocolate curls on top.
  • I'm 5 feet tall. My highest weight was around 246. I've been playing around with the same 20 pounds for the last year, and I've gone back to my own plan just this last week. I had to go to the doctor because I was sick (flu) and was weighed. In the 7 months I wasn't following any plan I gained 10 pounds. Last week I was…
