I hopped onto here because I usually suffer in silence and I need peers. I had plateaued at 209 and now it's creeping up. Very unhappy with 222. Would love some friends to come alongside.

This sounds really yummy! Thanks for sharing! :smile:

Wow, you're really smart! Thank you for posting!

If I had to choose, it would be HOUSE. I'd rather have a nice travel adventure with it though :bigsmile:

I agree with this ^^^

Kindness when no one is watching.

We have a Gertrude Hawk Chocolate store in the nearby mall. I like to get my teenaged daughter a nice treat from there and an itunes card, along with a very sappy "for my daughter" card from the Hallmark store. The sappier the better! I love the classic eye roll she gives me! But she keeps the cards, and she knows for…

I recommend you take a "new pumpers" class prior to Bodypump, if your gym offers it. Then you won't feel so scared! The first 3 times you do pump they don't want you to ratchet up your weights, but to work on your form. You will be fine if you follow this advice. As for calories burned, I use my heart rate monitor and log…

Hello everyone! This is my first post after joining the group. Thought I would chime in! Feel free to add me as a friend. Regarding food: I would cater to his tastes. I love to cook! Assuming my date likes meat, it would be fun to grill up some big juicy steaks. I like to do a foil packet of onions and garlic on the top…

Wow, Honey. That's a game changer. You will need time to absorb this one, and be gentle to yourself. Hang in there! :smile:

Hi! Feel free to friend me as well. Welcome to MFP! I find the more friends I make, the more incentive I have to log in every day.

An HRM, which is exactly what I needed!!!! But I sure wish I got those fake mustaches, Duck! LOL.

YES. I'm feeling very disappointed in myself for gaining back weight that I've lost. It's a constant struggle. But I am here. I record the awful weight number and keep trying each day at a time. I think there are sincere people here who have been successful and who truly want to encourage us. I personally would love to add…

If you know where you are going ahead of time, check out the nutritional info at the restaurant websites. I did this with Panera because my friend likes to meet me there once a week. Not all restaurants post their nutrition, so then I either check here or at Livestrong. Just type in the name of the restaurant and you find…

Gained, of course. It's the busyness combined with special treats around the house. Plus the wine. *sigh*

Bump :-)

My neighbor and I decided to split a weekly share from a local organic farm. I've tried things I would normally pass up at the grocery store! My new favorite under this topic is the leek. At first I didn't know what to do with it, until an friend at the gym told me to slice it really thin and "frizzle" it in olive oil…

My favorite is from the Light and Fit Yogurt container lid, peeled off from the larger size. 1/2 cup ice, 1 cup vanilla yogurt, 1/2 cup any juice, 1/2 cup any fruit. I use orange juice and banana. (I use a whole banana) The consistency will vary depending on what kind of fruit you use. Bananas will of course give you that…
