By the way, on the whole sweetener thing - truvia is made from stevia, which is an herb. All other artificial sweeteners are from chemicals, so if you are trying to give up sugar, stevia is (in my humble opinion) the best way to go.

LOVE THE NEW 'DO!!!! OMG, you look like a celebrity!

Could be. Also make sure you are drinking enough water. I know if I get dehydrated, I get a headache.

A couple of weeks ago, I went to try out a new gym with a friend. I have never worked out with her before. It was a great class that incorporated a little bit of cardio with lots of weights. After class, we were walking out and she said, "You have a beautiful body. I can tell you workout and take care of yourself." I have…

Yep! MFP builds in the deficit, so when you workout, you get to eat those calories! :smile: It will prevent your body from going into starvation mode, where it slows your metabolism.

I know, me too! I managed to enter it all manually, I had to pull the frozen veggie bag out of the trash.:sick:

Hello! Just a quick "hi" and have a good day! I did my workout this morning and my arms are shaking so badly I can barely type. It's a GOOD thing! (Am I sick or what??? :laugh: ) Happy Monday!:flowerforyou: Everyone do their best today!

It goes good! By the way, your new look? Love it! I do have Costco and I might run in there one weekday. I avoid it like the plague on weekends. I don't really care for crowds, and it seems like lately everyone is in a bad mood when I go shopping.

A ha ha ha ha! I haven't thought of that show in YEARS!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Oooh, gotta go, hubby says din-din is ready! :happy:

I got the Polar F6 for around $100. (Actually, my hubby and boys bought it FOR me for around $100 :smile: .) I love it - it keeps me honest. I may FEEL like I burned 1,000 calories - but it was really 450:laugh: . It also has helped me run more. I H.A.T.E. running, but I like to see how many calories I can burn when I run…

Looks like today is a new day! :flowerforyou: It is my "rest day". I rarely take them, but with the P90X thing and some double workouts, my body really needs it today. It is sooo nice not having any junk food in the house, because no matter what I decide to eat - it is good for me! I also found a favorite bowl that I like…

I bought the P90X workout program through them. I think the website has various videos and fitness products. We have been very pleased with the P90X program. It is butt-kickin' workouts and a nutrition plan that has left us feeling healthy and not hungry. I read through some of the supplements they offer and decided I…

CONGRATULATIONS on your new family! :drinker: :flowerforyou: :smile:

Personally, it depends on the workout. If I am going to workout really hard, I can't have eaten within the last 2 hours or I get nauseous. However, if I have NOTHING in the tank, I get dizzy. I usually get up at 5:00, eat at 6:15 and workout at 8:15 in the morning. That provides me with fuel and doesn't make me fill sick.

I don't think it's anything SHE really did, actually. The problem is media over-saturation. I blame Brad Pitt for the breakup of his marriage more because, well, he was the one who had taken vows. So for me, it's just that I get tired of hearing/seeing about her ALL THE TIME.

I bet you don't look the same. I bet if you ran into someone you haven't seen in awhile, they would be amazed!!! :flowerforyou: Hi, everyone, I have been remiss about checking in. I started the P90X program with my hubby and son, and it has kind of taken over our lives. We have to get used to the whole meal planning thing…

Love this post - thank you! :flowerforyou:

asics are my savior from bad feet! I used to like New Balance, but I have found asics to be even better. Hello, all, just started my weekend with a butt-kicking 2 hour class at the gym and I have done really well eating healthy, but I am not weighing in until next week because even though I am back on the wagon now I don't…

Oooh, sorry about that. I guess when I was chanting, "Rain, rain go away", I didn't specify WHERE it should go....but it worked, because it is a GLORIOUS morning here. So, I'm kinda sorry, kinda not, tee hee. :laugh: But, it's just water, mind over matter, you won't get sick!!!!

Good morning! I can't believe it's snowing! I am going to my class at the gym in a few minutes to pick up my metabolism AND my spirits! :grumble: I am very excited! My husband and I are going to do the Px90 together! I have watched 2 of the 12 DVDs. We want to watch them all and get everything set up before we start so…

HAPPY EASTER! I have been in hiding since falling off the wagon with my calories...:ohwell: :blushing: So, I am 'fessing up and starting over. I did manage to get workouts in, but my food intake was off the charts. Stress, boredom and who knows what else. I'm gonna go read through the posts now and get caught up since…

WHEN DID YOU GET AN HOUR OF FRIGGIN' SUN????? Li'l old Maple Valley has had NONE. I told my hubby, I think I am getting that S.A.D. disorder from lack of sun!!! Lucky you in your neck of the woods!!! __________________________________________

Best of luck! :flowerforyou: That photo in your ticker is adorable!!!

The Office and My Name is Earl

I think that was supposed to be spelled "Hungry" since it's popular to do that cleanse thing. And I know a gal who did it and yes she lost weight and she felt shaky and weak the whole time. Your body doesn't really need to cleanse. That's what your liver and kidneys, etc. do.

I....CANNOT....BELIEVE....IT....IS .....FRIGGIN'.....SNOWING.........ARRGHGHGHGH!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: I have not decorated for Easter in a few years, because my boys are older. This year, my house is covered in flowers, bunnies, chickies and pastels because I want Spring weather to be here so badly!!!!! On the plus side, I…

Oh, I am so sorry! We were all pulling for him, but God wanted him home. I will pray for your family. :heart:

Yeah, I only had 1/2 the bottle of wine left and I have a rule about opening another bottle when I'm all by myself. Plus, that was really yummy wine, so nothing else in my collection compares because I am cheap.

Good to know!!! :happy: :happy: :happy: We are supposed to get a windy soaker here tomorrow. Can we be done with friggin' spring? Please? And just move right along to summer???
