CONGRATS!

My daughter is getting married August 14.

me too!

You are a great place to start and finish. Make friends on here that you can encourage and will encourage you. You do have so much going on in your life and when you look at it all it is overwhelming. So my advice is focus on one part that you can change some things you have no control over. Tell yourself "this too will…

I am a vegetarian and refer to 2 sites a lot of ideas the first is Allrecipes and the secong is Wholefoods. They have so many great ideas. One of my favorites is using eggplant as a pizza crust you just add sauce and cheese which is you protein. I also like Subway I get a veggie hoagie which includes spinach and every…

Jeannie, First, I did not know you were in hospital. What in the world happened, if it is not too personal? Second, that is magnificant news about all the comments. I must say I love your sense of humor. Keep us posted on your post-op progress. It makes me even more determined to keep going. I always read your line about…

I would be careful of all of those artificial sweetners. It has been said they cause sweet cravings, and they are just not good for you.

just start drinking it. In time you will get used toit. I also hate water, but now I am drinking 88 oz a day. I just have to think about it. Every time I go to BR when I am home I go to kitchen and drink 8-16oz of water until I have had my quota for the day.

For me the price difference isn't worth it. Tried it once and didn't like the texture.

of xourse you can

Do you have any idea what a stone is compared to a pound? Just curious.

yummm I love asparagus and will be trying this soon.

I am going to invest in a HRM becuse I follow MFP calories guidlines, exercise, drink my water and I am going to set a record for the slowest weight loss ever. I want it just to see what am I doing wrong. It has to be in estimating calories burned. That is just my opion but feeling kinda desperate about scale not moving at…

I do not eat my exercise calories and I am not losing. Since April 14 I have only lost 12 pounds. I am frustrated, but one day I ate more and I gained weight. I have had trouble losing weight since I had my first child 30 years ago. Always, I loose so slow and give up. This time I am just sticking with it and believing at…

I have been a vegetarian for over a year now. My oldest daughter and her family are also vegetarians as well as our youngest daughter Melissa. My dad and husband still eat meat so I must cook 2 different meals most days. When I decided to go completely vegetarian I was on 4 BP a day and still they could not control it. I…

Just a quick note before church. I cannot tell you how much I look forward to getting up wth my cup of coffee and reading your posts. I agree, SuzyQ ,when I read your posts it felt like I was there peeking through a window. You write beautiful keep it up. I wish I had time to comment on each post but have lots to do. We…

When at your grocery store look for "Amies" foods they are good and no GMO. I also use Morningstar and Quion brands. I really like the chicken patties they are great on 100 cal thin sandwich breads with barbecu sauce. I have also made tacos with Morningstar;s meat crumbles and even my grandson (pickie eater) loved them…

You have a good husband. You must be so thankful that he openly and honestly answered your question. Obviously your relationship is important to both of you. Also, he is wise beyond his years to recognize it was about you and not to take it personally. You should be proud of your weight loss. May God continue to bless your…

Anyways in a bowl mix 1/3 cup oilive oil and 1/4 cup balsamic vineger with a little salt and…

I worry more about the calorie burned on this site it is always so far over what my machine says. I use my machine just because it it lower. I have found the same thing with my pedometer its numbers are much lower that MFP. Do you find the same?

Try Allrecipes. They have great recipes and are rated so you have a better idea of what you are getting. I am a vegetarian and have found loads of great ideas. Also, Wholefoods has a recipe site that is great. Hope this is helpful.

Hi everyone, just want to check in real quick. I cannot believe how much I look forward to getting on here and hearing how everyone is doing. I tried to go to work today, but after driving there got out of car and walked in office and got sick. These stupid ribs hurt too much to wear a bra. (where are the 60's when I need…

What is August 4?

I am ready to get an HRM which one seems to be the easiest to use and which one is your favorite? I got one response about Polar f7. I keep hitting wrong keys so sorry if this keeps posting. 2) I put an exercise ticker on and it does not move, what do I need to do? 3) I have noticed that I do not always meet all my…

I notice you have not added any friends yet. Do that. Find people on here who will commit to walking this walk with you. You do not need people telling you what to do, you need people to encourage you and you will find them here. If you want, add me as a friend. I am much older, but I am a good encourager. linda
