  • Man I wish I had a scale, I would love to get a handmade super prize t-shirt. With you all in spirit
  • PS: Last time I started the program I also couldn't finish 60 seconds of running at the beginning, but it comes really quickly, I promise! Sometimes instead of doing all 8 intervals of running I used one 60 second run to keep walking and recover
  • We're starting tomorrow too (The roomie and me) Good luck everybody!
  • I have started it before, and not finished, but I'll be doing it again soon (probably) because my roommate wants to start running and I promised to help since I have slightly more experience. I really liked it the first time (well, after a few weeks I liked it, the beginning was hell) but I hurt my leg, and, well... I'm…
  • When I go to the store, I always go to the fruits and vegetables first. In fact I try to avoid the whole middle part of the store where all the cereals and cookies and canned goods and commercial bread live. Just fruit, veg, fresh meat or eggs and the dairy. And maybe some nuts and beans. This has really helped! I honestly…
  • Super, it's a lovely little city! @Paganlee Je veux ajouter que, comme ce site est américain c'est un peu difficile (pour moi) parce que je dois ajouter moi-même beaucoup de ma nourriture! Et si j'achète du pain de la boulangerie, ouf,faut trouver une recette pareil en ligne pour decouvrir l'info nutrionnelle.
  • Bonjour, moi c'est Jessica! J'habite à Angoulême :) Je suis heureuse de vous ajouter comme amie
  • What I like to do is look at what I'm eating throughout the day and try to moderate my sodium there as well. Mainly when I started cooking for myself more, I realized how much sodium was thoroughly unnecessary and just packed into store-bought, prepackaged food of all kind (even healthy brands). If you're making a salad,…
  • Oatmeal never fills me up but I do like it! Here in France they make it with milk or... yogurt?! I know. But I tried it - one serving of plain yogurt with 5-ish spoonfuls of oatmeal, stir it up, microwave it, bam. I usually add honey and fruit (banana or raisins or something)
  • It's not "syrup" but I started putting a little agave nectar on my pancakes and waffles. Pretty good and not terrible for you as far as sweeteners go!
  • Oof, I know what you mean. Looking back on times when I felt really bad about my body (high school, when I weighed about 40 pounds less), I wish I'd known I actually looked pretty good and shouldn't have had an "Oh well, already fat, eat more ice cream" attitude about it.
  • Oh my goooosh I hear you so hard on that "You have such a pretty face," bull****. Like I can't be pretty or beautiful or whatever the size I am. Such a left-handed compliment. Anyway, good luck with your weight loss! I also can't wait to feel healthy and look fabulous and ****. I'll totally add you as a friend. We have the…
  • Germany! I'm going to visit Berlin and Cologne for Christmas, I have already figured that I'll be trying the sausages and gluhwein! If that's my entire calories for the day, so be it. Christmas markets! Thanks, I'll be happy to add you :)
  • My name is Jessi! I got rocketmouse out of a random band name generator a couple of years ago and really liked it, so I use it as one of my online handles for lots of different sites!
  • Haha no! I've only seen Paul's in train stations. There's one called La Mie Caline that makes these crazy good cookies. They even make one with speculoos... Sigh. Worth it, about once a month.
  • Is it possible for you to get into a pool? You might be able to find a gym with water aerobics for people with limited mobility!
  • HA. Infected with pregnancy. Yeah, I noticed that even with my daily bread (oh good lord the bread here) I came in under my calories, and I avoid the pastries (and the friggin' Super Cookie from this chain of bakeries that is unnnnngh) unless it's a special occasion. Plus you do so much walking here. I feel like it'll be…
