You have really nice eyes

I like Celestial Seasonings Lemon Zinger Herbal Tea. It's really tasty. I tend to add a tablespoon of honey just to give it a little more sweetness but it's good by itself

I used to weigh myself everyday but that drove me CRAZY so I now weigh myself once a week. I have my weigh in on Wednesday morning, generally around the same time. I don't think it matters when you have your weigh in as long as you're consistent

I usually don't like a heavy breakfast, so I love starting my day off with Greek yogurt and/or a piece of fruit

Thank you Melissa!!! Aww You're definitely one of my biggest MFP supporters too!!

I LOVE Kraft's Fat Free Catalina dressing. It's tangy and really tasty; it's only 50 calories per serving (it is a little high on sodium though)

I'm not sure exactly how adoption works in the US, but I know that my mom adopted me from abroad because it was pretty much impossible for her to adopt here in the US as a single mom. Maybe the system has changed, but I know the domestic adoptions are extremely difficult.

I was adopted and I have to say that it was the best thing to ever happen to me. My mom adopted me(as a single mom) from Paraguay when I was 6 months old. I had developmental issues and doctors actually told my mom that she shouldn't adopt me. But my mom wanted me and brought me back to the United States anyway. 20 years…

When I was at college, I would do 1 hour of Zumba 4x a week and then would do 1-1.5 hours of Just Dance 2 on Wii 2x a week. Sunday generally was my rest day. I have to change my workout schedule now that I have winter break; I'm still in the process of figuring it out. I've just started 30 DS so I've been doing that every…

Also, if you portion snacks out ahead of time you won't mindlessly just start eating (I used to do this).

This. I've always had a hard time with snacking too but planning really helps. Also, maybe reconsider the type of snacks you're reaching for. I really like yogurt, hummus, fruits (my favorites are apples and pineapple), 94% fat free popcorn, and nuts.

Great body! And really pretty dress

I have the polar FT4 and I absolutely love it! It has a chest strap. It was very easy to program and it's very easy to use. I would highly recommend it!

I don't see weight loss in the mirror. Honestly, now that I'm becoming more self conscious about how I look, I now notice my flaws more :( BUT I've had other people tell me that they see the weight loss so I guess I'm doing okay Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods

My annual doctor's appointment. I almost had a heart attack when I saw that I was at 225 pounds; I'm only 5'3"! I was mortified. I ignored it for a week and then said "Okay, I have to do something." Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Calorie Counter

My college offers free Zumba classes and they're absolutely AMAZING! So much fun! I'm really loving it; I highly recommend it!

Like a lot of other people here, I'm going to enjoy Thanksgiving and Christmas day. However I plan to conscious of my portions and I'll try not to go completely overboard. However, every other day is going to be just like a regular day for me. If you want to indulge a bit during the holidays, my advice is to exercise,…

I used to use the Wii Fit Plus. I did really like it, especially the yoga workouts. I would highly recommend the Just Dance games (1, 2 or 3). They're a great way to burn calories and they're so much fun that it doesn't really feel like a workout!

I used to exercise with Wii Fit. I loved the yoga on in, although that wasn't a huge calorie burn. I would recommend Just Dance 2. I get a pretty decent work out and it's really fun!

Nuts (almonds, walnuts) are always a good choice. I also like dry cereal; Honey Nut Cheerios usually taste pretty good as a snack. I also like raisins, Cliff bars, trail mix, or freeze dried fruit :)

I bought a heart rate monitor recently and I was very happy with my purchase!! I would recommend the Polar FT4 and I absolutely love it! It's very easy to program and use. I got it off of Amazon for I think $60. I'm not sure how that price compares to other HRMs but I would definitely recommend the Polar FT4

Sounds good!!! I'll email you Oct. 31st :)

Same. I absolutely love it so far!!

I've been doing Zumba for about 2 weeks now and I absolutely LOVE it! My college offers classes for free. It's really fun and once you start learning the moves it gets easier. I wasn't sure if I'd like it because I'm generally I'm a klutzy person but I still have a great time.The classes definitely burn calories!!!! In my…

Are you looking for snacks or meals? For snacks, honestly the classic baby carrots and fat free ranch is a good choice. You can eat a lot of carrots with 2 tbsp of dressing and feel pretty full without eating a large amount of calories.

Thank you!! I'm completely with you about the weekend; why is it always so much harder to make smart choices come the weekend?
