Sorry, Roger. I keep not even checking this board. I do have one referral on my account right now. If you can shoot me a PM with your email address, I should be able to get one to you. I tend to get notifications for PMs on MFP.

Sorry. I haven't been around to check the boards in a while. I have two referrals available to send out if you're still interested. I'll PM you.

Teeth are fine now, thanks. It cost me nearly $400 out of pocket, though, since my insurance only covered half. Yikes. Thankfully, I'm really good about keeping an emergency savings fund, so I didn't have to put it on my credit card, and it didn't drain me, either. Still miffs me that they won't get back with me.

Well, all this time later I still haven't heard anything back from them. The crown was nearly $400 out of pocket after what the insurance covered. Thankfully I had it in savings. I'm guessing I probably won't hear from them on this any further without me having to call a lawyer, but at $400 it's just not worth it. I…

Thanks for the tip, Roger. I've got GIMP 2, but I figured I could change the size in the post itself. Ah well... So far, Nutrisystem has only emailed me back that they're checking with their distributors and that they'll get back with me again in the next 30 days. I've sent them all the info from the packaging as well as…

Got back from the dentist this morning... Thankfully it's a crown and not an extraction/bridge, but I'm still mourning that half of my tooth. I have three of the meatloaf sandwiches left in my freezer, and I keep looking at them longingly, but I'm not brave enough just yet to attempt it. I'll probably eat them VERY SLOWLY…

They're among my favorites, myself. It happens from time to time, though, with ground meat. Bone or other things get caught in the grinder. It could be a bad batch, or I could have just been the lucky person to get one with a large piece of bone in it.

Had this tonight for the first time... I don't see myself ordering it again. I gave it a 2/5. Roger put it best... I've had worse, but I've definitely had better. The seasoning was WAY overdone, I think. I do well with spicy and in fact love spicy, but the herbs were just so strong here that it tasted downright metallic,…

Oh, I didn't know about the kiddie cone. That does sound like a great idea!

Seems my phone is having some fun with me...

I love how this was addressed quite often in the old forums. I used to see so many people com.t same misconceptions. It's definitely something that needs to be shouted from the rooftops: Your calorie suggestions are not calorie limits. I'm on the women's 1200 plan, myself, and in weight loss mode I rarely go below 1300.…

Question... A lot of us that tried this dish when NS had it before noticed a lot of fat and gristle in the meat. I'm just wondering if you noticed anything like that. I'm hoping they've fixed the issue since bringing it back.

Zone Perfect also has a new flavor out that I'm enjoying-- Salted Caramel Brownie. Those are really good as well. I also like the Zone Perfect Cookie Dough bars. They have a lot of sugar, mind you, but I feel like they make up for it in the low calories + protein + fiber + vitamins. I can't hate on anything that feels like…

My go-to grab-and-go food is protein bars. My current favorite is the Chocolate Salted Caramel Luna Bar. For 170 calories, I get 12g protein and 3g fiber, so it'll keep me full for a while. Also, it's a candy bar. :smiley: I keep these in my purse and in my car. I wouldn't have gotten this far without a LOT of easy to grab…

I would exercise caution on fast food salads. Some of them (particularly if you include dressing) can have as many calories (of more) as the burgers. Oftentimes, food that we think of as "fresh" or "healthy" can be the most deceptive and have far more calories than we'd realize. Take the Zaxby's Zensational Zalad, for…

I have a current subscription to Plated, and I love it. The meals are pretty healthy, using fresh ingredients and lots of veggies, but the portion sizes will leave you with meals that are anywhere from upper 400s to lower 700s in calorie count. For someone like me who generally likes to hit in the 300s for dinner, I solve…

Looks good. I've spaced my AD orders out to every 6 weeks for now, and my next one isn't until June, so I'll have to add that and try it out.
-
I think that did fix it, thanks!
-
Yes. I'm up to 50 lbs lost. (10-20 more to go.)
-
Also... Gosh, I need to stop being lazy and update my bear picture!

Regarding tickers... Unfortunately, since I've been with MFP for WAY longer than with NS, my ticker reflects my OLD starting weight-- which was a lot less than the starting weight I had when I joined NS. (I ballooned way past my MFP starting weight before I finally joined NS.) So I don't tend to use it for that reason. If…

Here!

I think once you evaluate your needs, you'll be fine. Figure out how much you need to eat and how often. Consider your exercise goals, too. Make sure you're not dehydrated. Just rehashing what's above, really. A quick note on calories... I eat between 1200-1500 calories on most days, and I do lose weight when I stay within…

This. This. This. If you don't like it, you won't do it. I'd also ad.. Find something convenient. I started walking because the track is on way home when I drop my daughter off at school every morning. I'm not going out of my way to do it, so I'm more likely to do it.
-
All of this. Some good advice, here. The only thing I would change is the fat content in #2. I would go for high fiber and protein foods while looking for low fat ones and then adding in healthy fats elsewhere if you have a deficit. A lot of people go for things like nuts, olives, canola/olive oil, or fish for that. But…

Cardio AND lifting. Cardio will burn calories, but muscle will help your body burn calories even faster. (Don't worry about getting "bulky." It's incredibly hard to do if you're a woman without specifically trying.) How much you do depends on what will keep you going and what will drive you to quitting. Something is better…

Well, I'm deleting my reply. I guess I should read before I respond. Whoopsie!

There is an actual medical condition that causes this, but it's rare. You might want to consider seeing your doctor if this is genuinely your situation.
-
First off, I'm glad you can recognize a weakness. That's the first step. Now to work on tackling it... There are things you'll need to ask yourself. Are you eating enough? Consider any exercise you're doing. You should be eating at least 1200 calories per day. (There are a few exceptions, like if you're very short and past…

Love it, and my 5 y/o daughter loves it, too! (She has awesome taste!)
