I made this last week and it is going to be a regular in the rotation! It is AWESOME!!!!:drinker:

I go over every day too!!! :angry: But I eat alot of fruit and a fellow MFP told me that natural sugars are okay because the body knows what to do with them. ....sooo as long as it is not an added sugar I think you are okay.:wink:

Jeff Galloway and Hal Higdon have great advice on training for any kind of run. http://www.halhigdon.com/ http://www.jeffgalloway.com/training/index.html I like Jeff's walk run concept... But Hal's ways are practical as well! Good Luck...

Thanks Cathy - I don't count sugars.. just what the website tells me... and I usually go way over on sugar... but most of it is coming from fruit... so I don't know if that is a good sugar or what... And congrats on the necessary resize... and the good luck for your son. becky

I am thinking after my holiday party this week ain't gonna be pretty! Oh well... I have done everything in my power (will power that is) this week! So good luck everyone!

I worked out almost everyday for 3 months and didn't shed a pound... r u taking measurments? My body builds muscle fast - which weighs more - so I have found that taking measurements weekly is a good way to monitor my progress in order to keep myself motivated. But the portion control and monitoring intake is imporant too…

But I don't wanna ....:laugh: weigh in tomorrow!! Good luck everyone! Courage, sacrifice, determination, commitment, toughness,heart, talent, guts. That's what little girls are made of; the heck with sugar and spice becky

Been there done that... Doesn't work.. u'll lose a bunch of water weight.. Not 10lbs... then gain it all back as soon as u eat again.

Morning ladies! Kristen - thanks for the recipes... I did the candies yesterday and Cookies are today! So the recipes came in handy! Have a good day all!

Kristen - I will be doing the bake off this weekend too... so any low fat recipes you come up with will be greatly appreciated. Connie - congrats! Becky

Congrats Amylou and Katy!! Shanell happy 30th! I just had my big 3-0 last June - didn't bother me tho... I feel like I have earned 30 and hope my 30s are fantastic! Have a good day everyone.
