I tend to stick ham or turkey and cheese and guacamole into a whole wheat low carb tortilla and go. You can add things you like of course. : )

OMW! Just OMW!

It is a lifestyle. You obviously know that and have made a victory! Great job! Wish I could help more, but I have learned moderation helps me. I'm eating ben and Jerry's.

Quick note so ya'll know BUMP means Bringing Up My Post, it's a way to have it appear in your topics so you can refer back to it. And thanks for the notes, I'm a big girl myself, 46 F, and I needed to find one!

I also don't deprive myself of anything. I cook whatever we're having, measure out a serving, and eat it. I don't make mine differently my whole family gets what I do. I check the food database first because so many things I cook are there, if not I add them to the recipe builder and make them public. But as a friend…

Okay well I did the race for the cure and even with a 10 minute traffic stop (thanks to a firefighter changing shirts) and jogging while my partner took a potty break I finished in 1 hour and 10 mins. Sad but I could not go faster for all the other 45000 women on a 3 mile stretch.

I have really high arches. I just bought a pair of Reeboks because they were all I could find with enough arch support that didn't give. I spent 59 dollars at ShoeShow. I will be wearing them in a 5k next weekend. So If they do as well as they have training I'd recommend them

I am 338 and am doing my first 5k this coming Saturday. I'm going to be the Race for the Cure. So I'll let you know. Bumping this to my topics.

Thanks Ya'll! I got some great ideas, as well as ways to get off my tush and do it!! I can accomplish this I was just feeling down and let it bog me up!

My husband and I went through a government program. He to be a chef, I a baker and pastry chef. Talk about tempting. I'm a mousse addict. I quickly lost any confidence in my skills thanks to a boss who berated me constantly and publicly and am happy now to cook at home, but never wish to work in an executive kitchen again.…

Thanks ya'll I just don't want to burn out. I'm changing my life here not just dieting so I have to learn more than 2 or 3 recipes.

Your children will also thank you when they are older for choosing healthier meals now. Trust me.

Well I don't live near you but I'll gladly volunteer to help. I have my food diary public so you're welcome to check it out. Also, you can win that battle. I'm doing it one small slow step at a time, and by no means have I given everything up. I still eat chocolate, caramels, that kind of thing. But I measure it all, and I…

I sometimes have that problem, but I've started looking for healthier versions of what I like. And I bought a set of measuring spoons for when I can't replace it. I measure 1 serving and put the rest away, normally at the back of the fridge covered in fruit... I like ice cream sandwiches a lot, so I get skinny cow (which…

OH MY GOSH SO GREAT WHAT A DIFFERENCE!

AMEN! I'm praying for you honey. Add me if you want support, I can promise to do that gladly.

I love it! pvtnick, you're only comment is the price! Lol! Needed a smile!

Mkay...I just think it needs repeating...OMG! I don't know what else to say...OMG...My husband is going to die when I show him this!!!

You look great! Congrats!

Me too! Our church has a group that's going, but honestly they're going to leave me in the dust. I'm going to be walking briskly. I hope...

I'm new to this, logging hasn't stressed me it. It makes me feel great to know I'm improving. Yes I take a second look at many of the things I eat. But I'm not limited. Any kind of work can stress you out. My job is at a daycare, it is stressful, and like was said about many other things are more stressful. I don't want…

Anyone who needs support, wants someone to talk to about the stresses, anything like that is welcome to add me.

I love it. I've been here half a week. And the logging and knowing how much was really in what I've been eating has helped alot. I'm down 3 pounds. I love the fact that everyone supports you. We all have the same goal.

Good luck! I know you can do it. You already have the right mind set!

I picked a weight I knew to be a healthy weight for me. I have no plans to be skinny, I settle for healthy.

Thanks. Many of the things folks suggested are things I'm currently working on and have been for a while. The sodium advice threw me a bit, I never knew how much was in some foods. Since we're all doing this as a family we're all getting rid of unhealthy foods and choices, and we're all trying to go fresh, no added salt,…

Hi! I think Mike may be AFK! For now I'll try to make sure to welcome everyone. If you want to join the group I suggest adding one another and we should all be great support for one another!

That's a good thought! I tried a protein bar this morning. I bought one on my way to training on Sat, but didn't eat it. I don't like the bars at ALL! Maybe the shakes will be better. I've made a concentrated effort to get more protein in my diet because I was severely lacking and started craving it all the time. Maybe…

Thanks everyone! I'm looking into the sites and numbers and markets now! You are all awesome!

Hi husband! Good job today!
