Brand New Laura thank you!! makes perfect sense to me now. I'll try maybe diced chciken breast or something instead of the ham and lunchmeat when they're all gone thank you!

I gotchya there but what do I replace it with? Turkey lunchmeat was high in sodium too and doesn't the protien weigh out the sodium? What about the dressing, should I ditch the salad all togehter eating a salad w/o dressing is not an option for me LOL

How do you all stay under 2500 for your sodium for the day. I just added sodium to my tracker and my total was like 4,000! I don't get it ugh! Here is a typical day for me if you have any suggestions or subsitiutions i could do that would be great thanks! Breakfast: 1/2 cup egg beaters 2 oz diced ham 2 pieces 45 calorie…

I totally want to join and do this. My Starting Weight for MFP is 242 My Current Weight is 231 My Goal WL for 4 weeks is 220 My ultimate goal is 160

I was talking with a friend and asked her advice on how I can improve my meals and she said don't buy the tv dinners (lean causine, lean gourmet, ect) becuase of all the sodium she said I could make a big batch of whatever and freeze it. Is this okay to do. I would hate to get sick. I just don't know without the food…

I was thinking the same things as the other ladies. I know your muscles are really pumping extra hard which can add a little weight, not to mention if your sweating a lot and drinking water (I can easily go through a big bottle of water while wroking out) your body is holding on to all that excess water to replenish itself…

I'll try to find the article but I read an article that said if you drink even a diet pop or crystal light you should try to drink 2 glasses of water to help replace that becuase the articial sweetners are hard on your system too. So even though your not drinking calories your still going to slow your weight loss down from…

I have always heard that you should aim for a weight loss goal of 1-2lbs a week. Now if your heavier and have more weight to lose is it okay to aim for a weightloss goal of 3-4lbs a week. I have been trying to make my goals for 3lbs a week seeing that I have so much to lose right now then when I get down more I'll aim for…

I honestly reward myself with food but I have to realise that even rewarding myself with healthy food is still leading to bad habbits. Usually its just a sugar free pudding or a diet soda something that wouldn't be in my normal diet but still. I think for every 25lbs I lose I'm going to either get my hair or nails done.…

I think a lot of the comments stem from having that picture up there. When i see that picture i feel sick becuase i dont see that as a girl who should be on here to lose weight so when you say you need to lose weight and I see that visiual it churns my stomache sadly thinking of all of those with eating disorders or who no…

Bump! Thanks for the info. I never knew that I could eat the calories I burned I thought I needed to work out to burn the calories I ate! It definately is an extra motivation for getting into the gym!

I'm totally in! I've been looking for someone to do this with. My name is Mandy! I can't wait for January 1st!
