Blue Razz is the best!!

I'll just leave this here. Cheesecake? Check Oreo? Check Chocolate Chip Cookie? Check Brownie? Check

Oh cool! It got bumped! Almost a year ago when I made this thread, these were my top 5 items (actually I did 6) that make my life easier. I thought it'd be fun to update it! THEN: 1. To my absolute surprise- my gym membership. I'm still very much a gym noob, but I have a small kids and find it much harder to get a great…

This! This happened to me and yeah- it was NOT fun. I had a very painful and uncomfortable 6 days before getting relief. Making sure to get fiber over time is very important- but increasing suddenly can cause major issues if someone is already constipated! I'd be more interested to check out the OP's fat intake level...

Yes, I'm sure he'd be useful!

Either a walk around the neighborhood in the evening or riding up the street to the nearest gym that has a daycare for a quick session.

I have a sweet treat every night as I also have a strong sweet tooth. Unless you have a medical reason, there is no reason to "cut out sweets completely" as you say. You can eat whatever you'd like and still lose weight as long as you are eating within your calorie allowance! It's all about balance! In my case, my late…

One physical thing? Midsection (back included) as a whole. One non-physical thing? To become a more patient person.

Spend more quality time with my kids/family. Go to the gym more/longer. Have more lazy days. Sleep more.

My favorite is to cut zucchini and squash into "spears", spray or toss with olive oil, sprinkle seasoning (I like seasoned salt and pepper) and roast! Make sure to spray the pan as well! I think I do them for 35 minutes at 400 (but I always check on the about halfway and then towards the end to make sure they don't burn)

Hi! Do you have a friend, family member, or maybe a neighbor who could go with you? :smile:

I dont know what they are but I want them

Amazing! Congrats on your accomplishment!

How was it? I've been wanting to try!

OK, so I'm not crazy? :smile:

Wow! Very interesting- thank you for sharing! When comparing to my own stats 1200 just seems low but I'm glad it works for you! FWIW I'm at 160, 5'5'', and sedentary. MFP gives me 1320 for -1lb/week. I also decided to do -.5lbs/week.

I'm confused about how it gave you 1200 cals for lightly active with your stats. Even if you selected loss of 2lbs/week that still seems a little low. If that is the case (you selected -2lbs/week), I as well as many others here will suggest to lower that to 1 since you only have 25 lbs to lose. The higher loss rates are…
