Finally! Halo top is on sale at my local pick n save. 3.99! If i can figure out Ibotta rebates i'll get another dollar off too!

Check and see if there's Fitness MeetUp groups in your area? :smile:

Oh my gosh that is so not cool of her. How long ago was this? Now a days the formulas are 6 tomatoes, 6 cucumbers, 6 pickles, etc. At most subways they are supposed to place on as much as the customer requests (within sane reason - not an entire lb of lettuce lol!) I had a guy ask for so much black pepper on his sub it was…

I like cucumber.

The machine for me after 1 hour says 685.... MFP says 423, I go with MFP

You've got this! Remember: Don't try, DO! :smile:

I stopped wearing my fitbit. I found that it was inaccurate during my workouts especially. I did the exact same elliptical workout every day and the burn would vary 200-300 calories sometimes. On days I went harder or longer, the calories weren't lining up. And on days I didn't go to the gym it was reccomending calories…

I don't really have an end point. If i get bored I do a different machine, or like this summer I'm starting fitness classes occasionally!

I had a lot of friends in high school (and a sister) who would gawk at how skinny and weak I was. They called a twig, a 'skinny minny', a stick, you name it. Of course, it was all meant jokingly. There was no foul intention. They even thought it was a compliment. But it still hurt. I felt like a skeleton some days. I'm…

@str8bowbabe I'm so sorry you had a difficult day. It is so hard to resist unplanned for food, especially when it's been ordered and paid for already. I'm guessing your hubby probably meant well and was just upset that you weren't enjoying the meal. Do you think he could tell you were unhappy during the meal? Maybe you…

CICO/ macro monitoring. I don't stress myself too bad about my macros; I just try really hard to hit my protein goal every day, and THEN some on days I lift. I love CICO! It lets me live my life. I log food and forget about it. Today I was able to have half a chocolate crepe and a slice of pizza hut cheese pizza and it all…

My mother is back in my old city and I'm moving back on the 18th! We are having a late mothers day supper that evening! I can't wait to be able to see her more often.

Woah what brand has Tutti fruity flavor? Was it like blue moon ice cream or fruit loops? Did it taste like cereal milk? I NEED THIS IF IT DOES

Overnight oats 1/2 cup dry oats 1/2 scoop chocolate protein powder of choice 1 cup-ish liquid of choice let sit overnight and enjoy cool, chocolate oats! Besides that I enjoy Special K protein cereal, or a huge omelet made with 6 egg whites and 1 whole egg with bits of leftover meat and veggies from previous meals.

I could eat a buffet for breakfast after I lift if i had no restraint. Breakfast is the hardest meal for me to limit.

I take protein bars to snack on until I get to the destination (depending how long) but once I'm there I just log as best I can without measuring cups or a scale. Has always turned out fine in the past!

Perhaps view 'eating back' calories as a way that you keep yourself on track. If you're too rigid and restrictive all the time and resist treats like that then you could be at risk at falling off the wagon long term. You're doing yourself a favor by making your weight loss sustainable mentally and physically! There are…

Sweet potatoes, Steam in bag veggies, Steam in bag brown rice, oatmeal, protein powder, eggs, more eggs, more eggs, apples, grapefruit, blueberries, bananas, frozen fish, frozen chicken breasts, frozen meatless chik'n, tofu, cheese sticks, greek yogurt, Luna bars, pita breads, prophets pockets, halo top!

If there are coaches available at your gym or an equipment trainer I'd ask them to check your form on the machine. If something is off that could be causing pain.

I would suggest talking to your doctor before making dietary changes.

A slice of pizza hut cheese pizza, a sandwich, and some fruit. I love to save my calories for a nice big dinner.

I wish it was sold by the gallon.

Been at college for the past few months. I can only borrow and use my friend's scale like every other month.

@toxikon I totally agree. The prices have gotten ridiculous. I make people's sandwiches and ring them up and they often say "18.68? "really? For two footlongs?" and its sadly accurate nowadays, especially the good ones like rotissere chicken and carved turkey. I really like how regulated the subway formulas are though. We…

My college coffee joint finally added calories to their menu. I was pleasently surprised by some things. I think adding calorie counts can increase business in some cases, especially if the restaurant has 'nothing to hide' per se.

I work at a subway so I eat a 6" carved turkey sub on wheat flatbread with honey mustard, spinach, and lettuce 5 x a week. It's free, and it fits my calories nicely! Besides that, I'll eat out 1-2x a week if my family wants to.

Yep! Maintaining, living life, and being healthy while doing it!
