Both are bad but Potato soup tastes better and you can decrease the amount of cream, etc to help a lil. I also think its more filling so I woudl be eating less calories as I wouldnt be reaching for a snack or whole other meal an hour later.

I JUST set the 1800 based on my TDEE. MFP had me at 1250 prior to me setting. I think it was to low

Thank you :-)

my quads and shins are burning.

I personally LOVE Greek yogurt and will never eat regular yogurt again. Besides it being full of protein, the yogurt is thicker and the texture makes it creamier. I think MOST taste better (cept one brand was NOT good).

Day two completed. The jumping rope really got to me for some reason today but I feel accomplished. However, the way my legs feel they may be the most fit thing after this is all said and done. LOL

Ha! I actual;ly woke this morning wondering what was up with my calf muscles and why someone would go thru the liberty of cutting my leg open just to switch that muscle out... Have a feelin the jumping rope could be extra fun today..LOL

I have tried it. The taste wasnt to bad and it was quick and easy as my husband leaves for work before 7am and that leaves me to get both kids up, dressed, dropped off at schoola nd daycare (2 separate places) and make the <then> 35 minute commute to work. Often I woudl make the smoothie and be drinking it on the road.…

Day 1 done! I had started last week then had to quit due to an injury so I thought it would be easier today....its amazing how hard I forgot it was after just a week. LOL Had to take a good break that was prob more than the 5 seconds she said. And I have never downed a bottle of water faster than I did after this workout.…

best thing about them for me? My oldest and my husband cnt stand bananas or peanut butter and my youngest is allergic to oatmeal so I can make these cookies and not have to worry about sharing..which will provide a couple weeks of a sweet treat for me! Woohoo!

I log it is circuit training. Though my HRM finally came in so I may just log as 30DS and manually enter my calories burned according to HRM. I started this workout DVD last week, made it to day 3 before getting an injury and being forced to quit. Had 2 complete rest days and then 2 days of lighter exercise to ease in. I…

My starting weight is 214. I dnt have measurements yet as my husband was going to take them tonight when we are both off work. I figured even if I get one workout in before work my measurements shouldnt be that far off if taken the same day. I do not post pics cause I have no idea how..dnt even know how my profile pic got…

I log it as circuit training...25 min since I include warm up and cool down

never heard of them. I work at a grocery store and have never seen one....interesting

Anyone know?

I will! Hoping my DVD will be in tomorrow or the next day so I can start by Wed.

I tried the Right Size smoothies in chocolate and vanilla. They actually tasted pretty good and I mixed the powder with peanut butter or dif fruits to create new flavors and add variety. This was all before I started actively working on weight loss thru diet and exercise. I had 2 smoothies a day (though u can have one) and…

I was at work for 8 hours and missed a meal (had a break for breakfast but not lunch and by the time I got home it was so close to dinner I grabbed some carrots and called it good) plus TOM hit which took away appetite, so I actually was about 200 UNDER my goal

\ That was kinda rude. If you had looked at days other than today you would notice I eat "real food" 3x's a day. My baby carrots I had at lunch today was because I was at my part time job where I cashier and instead of grabbing junk food like I normally would've I just grabbed some of the baby carrots I had brought with me…

Thanks! Good to know I am not alone :-)

I have a tree nut and coconut allergy so those "fillers" are out. Avocados..well I'm just trying to find a way to make themk with out tasting like an avocado (I dnt like them). But thanks for the pointers!

i try to have the 100 calorie packs either in my purse or in the glovebox. Also a bottle of water as the more I drink the less I want to eat. Myabe a banana or some fruit..but u gotta make sure it doesnt go bad and can handle being in the car.

I did as you said and mow my calories are like doubled. Did I mess up or is that normal?

My 3 year old was diagnosed with Celiac about 8 months ago. She, of cvourse, is 100% GF due to it. We are NOT GF but sometimes it is easier to eat GF dinners we have prepared for her. So we (husband, oldest child and myself) are semi-GF. We are about 55% GF. Hasn't hurt us yet...

granola bars and my weakness...twizzlers!

The special K pastry things are super good and only 100 calories. I also say eat fruit. Hard bolied eggs, a breakfast type sandwich made with eggs, bacon (or sausage) and cheese on a croissant or english muffin

Log it as cardio-general exercise?

I had 3-4 watermelon "slenders" for breakfast today. Well worth every bit of sugar I consumed!

You lose inches more than pounds. The scale may stay the same (esp if doing strength building exercises) but you've lost inches which is why your clothes are looser. I always take measurements in addition to weighing weekly for comparison.

I've been waking up around 2am STARVING. Not full on cramps but hungry enough to wake me up out of a dead sleep. I drink water to calm me and go back to sleep. When I'm up again around 7am I am just as hungry so I grab a glass of skim milk to drink while I get breakfast made for myself and my kids. I say keep water by your…
