turkey tacos! I mean not much of a recipe with that one, probably substitue flour tortillas for something either whole grain or corn and add avacados, tomatoes, onions, maybe a bit of tatziki instead of sour cream

ive said this one before but: When I get to my goal weight, I am going to do a boudoir pinup shoot. Ive already bought it (the hubby wont know about it until after I take the pics :))

MFP does really overestimate burned calories. I had gotten a heart rate monitor that estimates more closely. Sorry I can't be too much help, other than to say just stick with it :)

I just cut my hair to a little shorter than chin length, I use colorful snap clips for my bangs and the rest of the hair can just hang behind my ears. the hair bands that are elastic and go all the way around your head just do not work for me. you can get these at the dollar store

my wedding pictures (being 235 on my wedding day was depressing enough), I had to photoshop out my double chin just to be able to look at them or want to put them in a scrapbook.

I hate to say I "blame" my mother but in a big way I do. Before I was born, my parents had a baby that was delivered and only lived two days after being born (he had only 3 of 4 heart ventricles so his heart was not strong enough). I dont know if my parents ever sought counseling but I was conceived very soon after they…

-Gym 5-6 days a week at least an hour -I do not drink alcohol at all anymore (not to be on a high horse or anything. I just do not enjoy it anymore) -Yoga/Meditation -Following my nutritionist's advice with adding 2 colors of fruit or vegetables to each meal (this can be hardb/c Im so used to buying frozen meals) -More…

my co-worker bought Whitman 4-piece Chocolate Sampler for everyone today.. Only 240 cals and I will be burning more than that on the stationary bike & water aerobics tonight.

I got Nike Dual Fusion ST2 running shoes (although I am not really a runner). They are great for all the workouts I do and are super light on my feet.

oh man this is happenining at my house this weekend

I have already purchased a Pinup Boudoir photoshoot package that is good until next year so when I get to my weightloss goal (which will hopefully be done in the next 6-8 months) I can get into my skimpies, do my hair in pincurls, throw on some red lipstick and take pics :)

My nutritionist has said NO calorie intake vs. calories burned is cumulative throughout the day; however eating on a regular schedule to keep your body stress hormones in check and not allowing yourself to get starved to the point of pigging out when you do finally get the chance to eat. Good luck

you try on the skirt in the back of your closet that used to be too small, and now it is too big!! Time for a new wardrobe (well maybe wait until I am a little smaller to start buying a lot of new clothes)

Luckily I was not the one in the relationship to gain that layer. My husband put on at least 20lbs since we met, it really does come from just ordering a couple steak and cheese subs and fries and watching a movie. And the fact that I am such a great cook :) I am lucky to be with someone who is supportive and happy that I…

The mock McRib patties and buffalo chicken nuggets are awesome too

omg yes, when I started working out 6x a week I started getting my cycle every 2 weeks instead of every 4 weeks! I read online that a dramatic increase in exercise (I gradually went from 2-3 days a week up to 5-6 over 3 months) that it can make you miss ovulation and cause your to bleed more often. Ugh it sucks hopefully…

if you wanted to see what you actually burn in an hour of working you can always use a HRM with a chest strap so you can turn it on and forget about it. I would imagine using it for a whole day would drain the battery.

I do see that you are shooting down everyone's thoughts on this information, where are your peer reviewed articles to actually inform us of what is correct?

What my nutritionist told me is: Diet soda has artificial sweetener that is many times sweeter than natural sugar and sugar is a natural energy source for your body (obviously over indulging is not good). So when you ingest Diet sodas with no natural energy source for your body it starts to crave the energy it thought it…

Finally I can say NO to this! For most of our relationship I have been ~10lbs heavier than my husband but now I am 15lbs ligher than him and working on making it even more!

I did a bootcamp that was heavy in to kettlebells and I had never used them before. My arm strength at the time was not good at all. I did between 10-12lbs and was struggling but was able to finish a 45 minute workout.

I had one that was a strap-free Mio Drive+ and I was worried that It was not getting an accurate reading because I had to keep checking my HR during my exericse plus it would beep everytime I checked my HR while working out so it was not really appropriate for certain situations (like trying to track calories in yoga…

Tiger Little River ... sounds like a Native American Stripper

I would try it over a few different exercises to see how those compare. I have a Mio Drive+ (ill be upgrading to a Polar FT4) that I do like and I feel that it is fairly reliable and close to the HR reading that I get on cardio machines so it may be accurate for a 90 minute walk. www.bodytronics.com has Polar FT4 for $60,…

I am training for a 10k on March 31st! I am totally not in shape but I at least want to get to the point where I can jog most of it instead of having to be in the slow walkers wave of people!

I have been overweight since I was a toddler (literally). I want to change, feel good, look good and finish the 10k that I am doing March 31st!

An option to look into is Plant-Base Nutrition, it is like Vegan but also incorporates natural grains such and takes out the "processed" aspect of foods like processed white sugars and suggests using things like Dates as a natural sugar substitute. The Complete Idiot's Guide to Plant Base Nutrition is half nutrition…

I got a spectrum light and use it for 20-30 minutes when I first wake up. I feel that it has helped me (But its not the only thing that helped). Anti-depression medication never worked for me so I stopped those a few years ago. My biggest motivator is to see that first pound drop off and it was all good from there. I am in…
