This is a tough time of year for a lot of people, with weather changes and illnesses abound it is tough. even with summer just around the corner I am finding it hard to stay focused myself. Thanks for this challenge, good luck to everyone, 10 lbs or not if we give it our everything only good can come from it.

Im in!! I could use a little challenge

Thank you, I have always struggled but really want to be able to do push ups. I will be giving this a try. :drinker:

I kid you not, I actualy had this said to me at a bar, the guy had been following me around making me uncomfortable. he finally caught up to me and said, "You're really pretty, you remind me of my sister, d'ya wanna dance?" uh... no.:noway: :laugh:

after lots of research and trial and error. I use Vega whole food powder. I only use one scoop, with 1/2 cup of milk(or milk substitute) and 1/2 to 1 cup water and 1 1/2 cups of frozen fruit of choice. blend well and enjoy. It has None of the following; SOY, wheat or gluten, artificial colours, artificial sweetners,…

I live by these rules have for years, doesnt alsways work :grumble: but I do try. I have however had much more sucess since sending hubby off to wander the mall while I shop and now that I am much much more aware and read labels. :tongue:

You are amazing!! that is a great story. I love that you kept checking to make sure what you were seeing was true. Congratulations!! you definately should feel proud. Keep going and make youreself some more fantastic stories!!!

2 to 6 cups decaf tea (sometimes with a little milk) 4-6 cups of water (sometimes with fresh lemon and heated) for a daily total of 8 to 12 (minimum 8) i dont touch coffee anymore, got too addicted...

Did anyone see the new assassins creed coming out? I love my AC but im not sold on the war angle....

you know what, that is good advice. but even before computers were the main, my uncle had his identity stolen. but not for credit or money. He only found out someone had stolen his identity when he tried to travel to another provence and was arrested for multiple murders in that provence. They were in the process of…

If you open your diary you will get more help.

THAT explains everything I must have really fat bones!! :noway: weight :laugh: wait :laugh: weight :huh:

I diddnt take any before pics of my legs, mine werent too big, but I did find the more cardio on my elliptical I did the better shape they showed. It was one of the first places that really started to show the fat loss.

made me smile. good for you and she is right, keep going!!

I agree with this in regards to diet shakes designed to promote fast-fake weight loss, but for some including myself, a smoothie filled with fruit and healthy greens is a great on the go breakfast option, I dont like breakfast but its paramount in a healthy lifestyle, having a smoothie also ensures that I have my breakfast…

this!! I also got headaches and digestive unrest not to mention the lovely yo-yo effect... gained it all back plus. Ive been watching my coworker, go on and on about her slimfast plan, she has it every morning, Ive also watched her weight go up and up and up, yes I have talked to her and im being supportive in helping her…

Deffinately not. Fake sugars and crap-filled meal replacements will only cause you grief, trust me ive been there done that and it never ends well. If you are looking for a meal that is healthy and feels like diet food, but tastes great here is what i have for breakfast.(im not vegan or vegitarian but the Vega is great,…

THANK YOU!! this really helped me understand a bit better. im not eating enough, go figure. do you follow the fat2fit program, does it really work? looking for honest opinions about it.

How accurate is the MyFitnessPal BMR calculator?

Im still lauging at this one!! its the open beak at end that gets me.

hahahahaha that looks pretty cool!!

awesome, congratulations, I remember that day, wow what a great feeling. keep going and watch those sizes keep going down it only gets better and better!!

the salt in the DC isnt going to help. try herbal teas, if you want them sweet add a bit of natural honey, its good for you in small amounts and if you track the calories its not so bad. I drink water, Hot lemon water, herbal teas and sometimes tea with a bit of milk. good luck and smart for you for giving up the fake…

Dont be scared of what people say about your diary, learn from it and improve. Take posted coments with a grain of salt and watch out for trolls that leave hideous comments to get you or others riled up. im not a medical professional, but here is what ive learned from my MFP journey and lots of research. I dont see sodium…

Vega whole food shakes, I have one scoop, blended with frozen fruit and some water and sometimes milk, its a meal to go and tastey too. and very healthy. Its Dairy, soy and gluten free too. im not a vegan but I love this stuff. Oh and they are free of artificial sweetners too. I avoid fake sugars. Vega also makes meal bars…

bump

hahahahahaha thats just clever

Actually artificial hormones are pretty bad, I agree that its the worst for you. I myself and many others I know have suffered at the mercy of the hormone based contraceptives. I was on it for years, no problems, but after a pregnancy I whent back on... after 3 years of weight gain, depression (ended up on celexa)and many…

ooh thanks for the free iFit advice, will go look. I put a thick towel over the speakers, muffles her enought that It is bareable. ive even thought about disconecting the speaker all together. it is the only complaint I have though.

All I can say is dont cheap out, shop around, and try them out. make sure all the features are right for you. I love my elliptical it is the best! it is a Norctrack audio strider 990, my only complaint is I cannot control the volume on the iFit programs. diddnt even think it would be an issue, but it is. I chose ellptical…
