Congratulations on a job well done so far!!! also, on the grad school start up!!! Remember that, as an incentive, you are going to want to look your absolute best when you graduate, for job interviews! You also THINK more clearly, and SLEEP better when you eat healthy, instead of the junk food, so the better you eat, and…

I have eaten out several times in the past month, and it wasn't any problem. As others stated, go online. Very few restaurants now days do not have their menu listed on line, and most have the nutritional contents available as well. Pick what you want, check out the calories, and work it into the day. When I am out with…

aaahh, ok, thanks! I was hoping I could use it while "water jogging", but it wouldn't really be taking into account the water resistance burning more calories, or the water weights that I use under water while jogging, so probably just as well, anyway . Good to know, though! Thanks for the info!

Actually, they think we are NUTS!! We go up and down for about 4 laps worth. They follow us, all excited, thinking we are going somewhere, then we turn around and go back down, with them on our heels. Then we turn right around and go back up, and they are watching us, like, "wait, we just came from there!" This has been…

For sure?? I didn't know that!!! That is exciting to hear!

I sent a "message" to fitbit when my fitbit wasn't registering my floors in my home, either. Found that you have to be "continually" going up at least 10 stairs for it to register, so if you have 6 stairs or 8 stairs, it doesn't count, because it goes by elevation. I found that , in our tri-level, if I walk immediately up…

I bought my at walgreens.com. Shipped it straight to the house. Got it in 3 days.

Just a comment...... I LOVE my fitbit ONE!! My husband and I got ours about 1 month ago, and , esp for my hubby, it has made a HUGE difference! I am on MFP, linked ours to both MFP and to my Walgreens Rewards card, so I get $$$$ , a BIG plus, on my walgreens rewards card (yay!!), and love that it immediately shows up…

YEP!! DITTO, (above).^^^^^^ I had had the same "results" for over 5 weeks, then lost 4 pounds, then , same thing again for about 4 and 1/2 to 5 weeks, then 3 pound loss! I was, like you, frustrated and irritated, because, like you, had been going to the gym regularly, much more so than ever before, using dumbbells under…

Thank you so much for this! I really needed this, had no clue on how to do it!

Hey, hon! I , too , am a pharmacist, and work 8 to 12 hour shifts. I ALWAYS eat a high protein breakfast, easiest one for me is eggbeaters as a very dense packed veggie omelet or as veggies scrambled into the eggs, sometimes with 3 slices of deli ham, or sometimes topped with salsa, etc.( I mix and match with different…

Oh, how wonderful !! He IS a cutie!!!! You both look GREAT together! Congratulations on your fabulous "gain" , and I wish you both the best, in life, health, and happiness!!! :heart: :heart: :heart: :love:

:laugh: My life is hanging in there, but ,hmm, I think I can maybe just kick it up a notch, TAKE a chance and give these a shot!! Sound yummy! Thanks for the recipe!:wink:

Actually, the response she asked for was to a very simple question. I don't believe anyone suggested telling her something that wasn't correct. She didn't say she was desperate, or only wanting to use the supplement in place of a healthy diet and exercise. She just asked if it would be helpful. Many of the responses on the…

Yes, he did, as he has actually been having his name used in areas that he has never even endorsed. He is suing several companies because of this. I knew that, when I put up this post, I would get a lot of negative feedback from the users, simply because of his name. He wasn't endorsing any particular raspberry ketone…

Yep!!! She IS in your life, and the "option" to cut her out is not really a viable option. She IS your husband's mother, and she IS your child's grandmother. Unless you are prepared for World War III, or possible divorce as you set your husband up to be torn between the mother he most likely loves and his wife, this is not…

Dr Oz actually endorsed the use of raspberry ketones for weight loss on his show (google Dr oz raspberry ketones for the segment of the show video), and yes, while I am aware that many people think he is selling "snake oil", he is actually a quite well respected and renowned cardiologist. That being said, I still am very…
-
I agree with this. As both you and your HUSBAND have a weight issue, she probably did the same thing to him as a child, as other people mentioned, equates giving treats and food as an expression of love. I would simply tell her that because both you and your husband have a weight problem, that you don't want to pass it on…

ok, so by the looks of your picture, you look pretty young, so arthritis would not be my first guess. I would wonder if you have done something to injure your knee, before starting on the exercise bike. Does just standing or does walking aggravate it? You might want to consider having the knee checked out to see if you…

Restaurant wise, I like the chicken strawberry spinach salad at Cracker Barrel. If I don't want a sit down restaurant, I like Panera Bread because every single item on their board has the calorie count posted right there, so I can pick and choose depending on what I feel like eating that day or how many calories I have to…

I also like to eat Chobani greek zero fat yogurts. Feels that creamy sweet taste, but high in protein and calcium. Also, the Yoplait yogurts,(I prefer the fluffy variety) if you put them into the freezer, are just like ice cream. Another choice, besides the ones listed above for me are cut up strawberries, about 3/4 to 1…

If you get tired of breakfast food, for a change you could saute some sweet onion, fresh sliced mushrooms, celery, red bell peppers and add a can of diced tomatoes, sometimes I'll add a little garlic powder . I usually will make this the night before, You can have a big bowl, cut the veggies nice and chunky, then just…

I had a healthy tuna fish salad wrap with green leaf lettuce in a whole wheat 100 calorie wrap for the last 2 days, just for a change! May make an egg salad wrap tomorrow, add some sliced tomato!
-
Gosh, this sounds good,"rmsturdy"!!! I think I'd leave out the peanut butter, and add some raisins to make it like a oatmeal raisin cookie! yum! Personally, I've been living on 3/4 cup eggbeaters, mix and matched with the following: sauteed red/orange bell peppers, sauteed diced onion, sauteed sliced mushrooms, bob evans…

Tonight I sauteed chunks of fresh mushrooms, sweet onion and red pepper in pam and 1 tsp butter ( just for the extra flavor), and about 1 tablespoon h2o, and spices. When it had softened some, I added 1 can diced tomatoes and simmered until reduced somewhat. Ate as a big bowl , very flavorful, with a 100 calorie wrap with…

"bump":wink: for newbies! Great ideas for sites here!

I work 14 hr days , 2 days in a row, every 2 weeks. I carry an insulated lunch box, with a frozen ice pack, so I basically carry my own" refrigerator". It will last for the 14 hrs. I can carry and mix / match with: baby bel light cheese or low fat mozzarella sticks, apple slices, carrot /celery / pepper sticks, grape…
