  • Hi! My problem is, I"M the one getting into the ice cream! I've tried substituting with nonfat frozen yogurt (Umpqua's the BEST). I DO have trouble measuring 1/2 cup serving, though! Any such thing as a "pretend" ice cream? I WISH! My husband has to eat whole foods, so no pressure from him to eat this. If anything, I…

  • I started eating whole foods along with my husband (heart Dr.'s orders!) 3 months ago. He just saw the doc. last week, and is able to cut back on 2 of his medicines! I'm eating a lot of what he does (mostly for convenience), as well as for my health. My diary may show an occasional chicken or beef. We're slowly "using up"…

  • I'm 57 years old, 5'0". After 3 months on 1200 cal./day, I upped calories to 1350 because I felt I needed more energy, due to the number of times a week I exercise. I've lost 23 lbs. since January. I walk approx. 5 miles/day at my job, then go to Zumba 2-3 times/week, and Pump class once a week. I feel increasing my intake…

  • I run the Electrical Department at Home Depot. Five miles was during work; 1 mile on my lunch hour. I'm having trouble getting MFW to work with MFP. There's lots of cement, so I have to wear well-cushioned shoes! :tongue: Have a good weekend!
