Stepped on the scale this morning and the first 10 pounds are gone. Yay me! It feels like a 100 lbs off my soul. I went walking early this morning. We had lots of thunderstorms yesterday and today it is so muggy it takes your breath away. DH wants to go fishing but I'm not sure he can handle the heat and humidity. I spent…

What a great thread. I'll be 59 next month, but 50 must be the new 30 because I don't feel old. I've been working on weight loss for a few years. I joined MFP a couple of years ago and had no idea about nutrition, healthy eating, etc. I then gained another 30 pounds and finally decided to do something. My main goal is to…

So if the Designers base model is a Size 6 and he adds 1.5 inches to it for each size, you will be in a larger…

Everyone should read this. I'm fairly new to the forums and found, despite diligently logging, I tend to forget the small things like the extra cup of coffee (with milk), or the cheese I decided to throw in my salad at the last minute. And while I'm not above weighing out 3 oz. of chicken, I'm just as much under than over…

A superset is what you do when you rapidly move between two machines without rest.

Sit down with Hubby and have him pick a few recipes. It doesn't have to be fancy, just tell him you are tired of the same old, same old and would like to try something new. Instead of frying the chicken, try grilling it and add a bit of spice/seasoning. Instead of frying potatoes try roasting them instead. Make little…
