I will be starting a job on Monday that gives me free membership to their gym. So I will be joining one in just a couple of days--would rather get it free then pay!

Last night when my husband came home from work he gave me a big hug and kiss and said I looked sexier than ever. He went on to say he could tell I've lost weight/inches and wanted to know how much. He pointed to my belly (the biggest prob area) and said he could tell it was slimming down and I wasn't so "pregnant looking".…

I have a SEVERE tree nut allergy. Pecans can and have sent me to the hospital in shock. Not jsut the actual not..but any flavorings. Almond extract was accidentally dropped on my skin while cooking Christmas cookies one day and the swelling/rash appeared instantly. Other nuts make me dizzy, get a headache and feel as…

I dnt have ENDO but I do have PCOS which also causes severe pain and makes weight loss a greater struggle.

This may work if cycles are normal and you have no medical issues but it is not 100%. I have PCOS so this method would not work for me. My cycles are never regular due to cysts (unless I take BC pills to help regulate and even then they can still be off) and so my ovulation times are not always correct. It's great for some…

When I do sprints or alternate between jogging and walking I try to half it..or come close to the equivalent minutes for each. So like tonight I was out a total of 50 minutes, and I alternated between brisk walking and jogging...with more brisk walking. So I logged I think 35 min of walking briskly and 15 of jogging (I'd…

When I have something not in MFP data I try to find something closest to what I ate that will be nearly the same calories. It may not be exact, but if the food is similar or even the same food from a different place it shouldn't be to far off. Good luck and enjoy dinner :-)

I'm in!

I've upped my alcohol this week. But that may have to do with me being on vacation. Normally I buy a 6 pack of wine coolers and drink 1-2 every 3 mos or so. I get the one pack to last pretty much all year. I NEVER drink beer as I cnt stand it. But since coming to Jersey I've had 3 glasses of wine at my MIL's and I think 2…

Sounds delicious! Will def have to try this next time i hit the store and grab a banana bunch!

I will, whenever I have my cell back. (should be tomorrow). It needed repair so no pics right now...

Thanks!!!! Stepped on the scale this morning to see two LBS gone even while on vaca and now this dress?! Only makes me want to work even harder and gave me just the boost I needed. Enough of a boost that my dinner tonight will consist of a chef salad....cause this mama wants more clothes. LOL

There are just to many choices...prob anything from Taco Bell or fried chicken, okra, mashed potatos....oh and cheesecake. Thats one thing I struggle to say no to..
-
I just don't eat a good hour before going. Oh and NEVER drink any kind of juice..huge mistake
-
I eat Special K or, to switch things up I bought Honey Bunches of Oats. I also occasionally throw in grits or oats to switch things up

I tell myself not to but I do it anyways. Usually it depresses me and I only want to eat more...this last round I gained 4lbs of water weight because of it. But I still weigh myself cause when its over I want to see how much I actually have lost or gain and its a good way of keeping track for the next time (in terms of…

I dip apples in my PB or spread 1-2tbsp on a rice cake for a healthy snack!

Awesome job!!

I went in and deleted all weigh ins from a year ago so I only have the current ones from starting on MFP to see if that worked. As for the ticker? I did what was suggested in the link someone posted and it still didn't work. Oh well, why fret over a ticker?
-
I DID gain but since it was water weight due to a certain time of month I did not log it (as I didnt count it). Last weigh in I put here was 218.8 lbs and then today's weigh in of 216.6. The only thing I can think of is I started this site about 10 mos ago, but quit. Now I'm back on it and going strong but am wondering if…

broccoli--it doesn't mattter how you make it as u cnt go wrong! A close runner up is brussel sprouts, but they have to be steamed. Also cucumbers--but I think that is considrered a fruit since there are seeds

Awesome idea. I have a 3 year old who they believe in on the autism spectrum. She was given a screening a couple of months ago and was borderline..so she is going to a case study program at Children's hosp to do a more extensive eval. Right now she has a significant delays in speech and fine motor skills. She is moderately…

I'm on day 8 of this challenge. I'm also doing the 30 day ab challenge with it. Muscles hurt like nothing else but it does work! 8 days in and I'm seeing results already!

I'm in! Great motivation but plenty of time to do it right. All for it here :-)

Is there any way to walk some laps during your lunch break? Maybe while your kids are in their activities you can just walk around the field (or whatever they are doing). Also maybe join somewhere liek the Y where you guys can go together and make a family day out of it.
-
Grab some fruit--apples, bananas. grapes, etc. Also maybe some sandwich crackers (LAnce brand makes them in pkgs of like 6 crackers, all dif flavors). Ziploc baggies of the Special K cracker chips, granola bars, 100 calorie packs, etc :-) Good luck and have fun!

Congrats!!! Hard work and determination does pay off!

I started with walking. I walked around the neighborhood every night (sometimes with my dghtr in the stroller) for about a week just to get stamina going and get used to working out again., I didn't want to overdo it and kill myself. Each night I went a lil farther and/or walked a lil faster. By the end of week 1 I was…
