  • BROWNIES!!..specifically Ghiradelli Triple Fudge Brownies..sigh. We are in a serious debate on how many brownies are in a pan..They say 17, I say 6. How in the world do you get 17 brownies out of an 8x8 pan???
  • My mini goal is to get my daily sodium intake at or below 1300 mg daily. I guess I need to learn to cook.
  • I'm also on BP meds (1st week) I saw my blood pressure explode yesterday after I inadvertently ate 3500 mg salt. I also can see some swelling in my fingers . And I ate 'healthy'. I have spent the last two grocery shopping trips, reading labels. I can only imagine that my salt intake could easily reach 7000-8000mg some…
  • omgomgomg..I hit 10,000 steps today..
  • Does anyone have pedals under their desk? I bought some a few years ago and somehow they wound up outside. I think I cleaned them and forgot to bring them back in. Anyway I sit at a computer all day, so I brought them back in and I pedal while I work. Just wondering if you've tried it? Do you think it's doing any good? I…
  • HOW do you keep up with this thread?? I don't even know how to jump in..lol.
  • HI there..Stuck inside in NorCal due to flooding. The roads are literally washing away! Who has a great beginner workout youtube suggestion? I don't have any machines, so basic low impact videos. I have been looking, but got a bit overwhelmed, so I thought I'd just ask here. I am currently doing 30-45 mins of yoga daily. I…
  • On that same thought..I found Sparkling ICE at the store. Its zero calories and fizzy and sweet. They are great slushy too! You might get satisfaction by replacing the soda with this.
  • We're all rooting for you! Give up the Diet Coke!! Its the #1 culprit behind all your other bad habits. Go get a box of headache meds with caffeine ( I think Exedrin Migraine is one). On the 3rd day, you'll be over it. Just tell yourself, if you drink this Diet Coke, your body will produce insulin, because your brain says…
  • @MnWild74 Congrats on the first goal. Logging every morsel you chew will help alot. My coach told me that my body is like a car. You don't go on a trip without filling up first , so EAT BREAKFAST. I'm not a big breakfast person so this is huge. Move all your carbs to breakfast and lunch. Then a big carb light dinner. I'm…
  • How is everyone doing ? It's day 3 of the new year. Are you feeling strong? I'm sticking to my goals! My son just got me a new yoga mat for my upcoming birthday. The mat will be here Friday. Probably won't get a chance to use it til Sunday. I'm currently walking 7600 steps a day, and 45 mins of yoga daily, and 1 hr of…
  • HI.. I'm a serious binge eater. I bag a Mini Reese's doesn't stand a chance! I even eat in my sleep. I have been working with a health coach through my insurance and the first thing he said is " YOU"RE HUNGRY!" Which totally shocked me. So, I started documenting my eating (ALL of it..every last morsel) and over the course…
  • Happy New Year..I just found this page. I'm new to mfp. I will be 55 in a couple weeks. I feel like this is my last chance to get the weight down. I bought a Vivofit and have managed to beat my goal almost every day. I'm up to about 7500 steps, which is a miracle, considering I sit at a computer all day. I would love to…
  • Can I join in? I am new to myfitness. My friends/family have no faith in me and don't want to hear about all my little victories. I bought a VivoFit and have started walking. I also bought a Vinyasa Yoga 8 week program . I'm 5'4" and hovering around 210 at the moment. Goal is to lose 50 lbs. I need friends who can toot…
