My measuring tape has both, too. I don't think I've ever seen a tape that didn't have both, actually. Look for a seamstress measuring tape if you don't have one already, those are nice and soft/wrappable!

My favorite salad dressing is balsamic vinegar, olive oil, minced/pressed garlic, salt, and pepper whisked together. Sometimes I just do balsamic and olive oil, but I think it's something about the garlic that adds a little something extra! It's also really good with a little dijon thrown in, too.

Try not to feel guilty about it! You're clearly on the right track since you've lost so much (WTG by the way!).You can't expect to restrict yourself so much for the rest of your life, right? There will be other cookies! Having them once in a while won't affect your weight loss in the long term. Also I totally get the food…

My list is a bit random, and changes periodically. Here are a few of my faves at the moment! "Hello" - Martin Solveig "Faster" - Matt Nathanson "Animal" - Neon Trees "What Makes You Beautiful" - One Direction "Everybody Talks" - Neon Trees "Stronger" - Kelly Clarkson AND Kanye West songs (both are great for pushing…

...so you're not actually changing anything? I don't think I understand the question.

When I restrict my calories more, I lose the first week but always stall within a week or two. I keep my loss goal at 1lb/wk, knowing it's not always going to be 1lb (sometimes more, sometimes less). I'd rather lose slower though, knowing I'm getting enough fuel every day and feeling confident that I can keep the weight…

Definitely try eating back your exercise calories! Especially if you're working out as much as you are, you really need to eat most or all of those calories to fuel your body properly. You may not see immediate results, but stick with it! It's taken me a good 5-6 weeks for the extra calories to actually help show losses on…

I do some direct selling on the side, but even I'm irritated by what your friend's doing. There's a tasteful way to go about it, without annoying the crud out of your friends and family! If people don't want to buy from you once, chances are shoving the product down their throats won't help. Suggesting a business page is a…

I've noticed that about the tracker! MFP's estimate seems to be at least 200 cals high for each workout I've entered thus far. I have an HRM but I can't find the chest strap. Must get on that. Glad I'm not the only one who has this issue!

^^ITA. Love soba noodles! They're hearty and delicious. Great in a curry soup! If you can find those I'd definitely try them.

Considering you really shouldn't be eating fewer than 1200 per day (per MFP's, and others, recommendation), yes. I'd eat you exercise calories. I'd also eat all 1200 allotted regular calories.

This breakfast wouldn't fill me up at all! I can see why you're hungry. I love bagels, so I tried to make them work for breakfast but they just don't last. The best breakfasts I've found are ones that are high in fiber and protein. Usually I go for eggs of some sort (a fried egg or an egg white omelet with veggies) w/ a…

I absolutely love all of my Under Armour cold gear! I have a hoodie that's pretty thin but keeps me warm enough, and a pair of leggings, too. If it's cold enough (and those temps sound cold enough!) I have a ski mask type thing, as well. It covers my nose and mouth to make breathing easier (keeps out the cold air). The…
