Mine right now is fage plain greek yogurt with banana and almonds. Yum!

Awesome! I go back to the doctor in 2 months and I"m hoping for such drastic improvement

I love your honesty! Good luck on your journey to healthy.

Great job! You look fantastic

Words from my Mother - 1. Never depend a man to feed and cloth you. You must work and provide for yourself and your children! 2. "Can't" is a word used by cowards too lazy to try!

Mine would be kale and chocolate - not together of course!

Welcome back! Glad that you decided to do this for you, and please add me as a friend if you like.

I love Bikram Yoga! In the past I've worn a HRM and have only burned around 380 calories in the 90 minutes. I am 5' 2" and 160 lbs. so IMO the website calculations are vastly over estimated.

Hello! My sister is a breast cancer survivor who started a dragon boat racing team for survivors. Please friend me and we can helpmotivate each other! Good luck on your journey.

To keep diabetes and hypertension at bay, and it does not hurt that the fat is leaving - LOL!

Thanks for the info!

Welcome! I'm currently hanging out in Vernal for the next few weeks. The process can be frustrating at times but just don't quit! Good luck on your journey...

I usually have a green smoothie for breakfast and it will send me to the bathroom within a few hours so it works in that respect :wink:

My best NSVs so far - 1. I'm officially off HBP meds 2. I'm at 29% body fat down from 41!

Belize - can't wait to get there in a few weeks!

1. my PT who pushes me beyond my belief in myself 2. my HRM - without it, I wouldn't know EXACTLY how many calories to eat back 3. my food scale 'cause I weigh everything I'm eating

Between 52 - 57 usually

I'm 50 yrs old so I don't know how that stacks up, but here are my results! HRM model = Polar FT7 Weight = 160 Height = 5' 2" Resting heart rate = 54 Average heart rate during jog = 139 Max heart rate during jog = 154 Calories burned = 30

bump will report back tomorrow when I wear my hrm.

I can stay modivated to lose 5 lbs this month! MFP Name: ehunte Real Name: Elizabeth Goal Weight for 03/31/2012: 155 Weigh In Dates: Fri Friday 3/2 -160 Friday 3/9 Friday 3/16 Friday 3/23 Friday 3/30

Since I started my changed way of eating with MFP I've discovered my gluten intolerance. I now shop down the gluten free aisle of my local grocery store and I tend to make most of what I eat and I read all labels. There is actually gluten-free pasta but I haven't tried it since I'm not big on pasta. You are right - if it…

I'll turn 51 next month and I have resigned myself to losing 50 lbs over the course of 1 yr. That way I will not let myself get discouraged - this weight is coming off :drinker: !

I think to each his own. I'm not here to judge what other people eat. If I think my friend ate crap then I just don't comment.

I'm giving up refined/added sugar

Bumping to read answers from Nate.

I've been natural for 3 yrs now. I usually wear my hair in a 2 strand-twist or pulled back in a pony tail. Hope you find your solution..

I love gardening. I've been experimenting for the past 2 yrs. I grow bell peppers, jalapenos, tomatos, corn, string beans and scallions. I can't wait for next month so I can start planting again.

I just tried quinoa for the first time this week. WOW - best invention ever! Can't wait to try these recipes.

My 2 daughters were born exactly 2 yrs apart.
