Before healthy eating - I carried imodium in my purse.... had to...I had similar problems to IBS and NEVER knew when it would hit me. NOW...that I cranked up fiber in my diet and even with drinking LOTS of water (although I did that before).... I am lucky to hit the "conference room" once a day .... TOTAL transformation.…

don't cook them although some mexican food recipes do....I don't care for them like that but I love them "raw" ... Sliced on a homemade hamburger (97/3 or better beef) or ANY sandwich. Eat them by themselves straight out of the peel Use the seed indention to fill with a good chicken salad or tuna salad Homemade guacamole -…

NOTHING!! However, I have learned....that if I eat the higher k/cal foods...either I give up k/cal's daily consumption - which could have been consumed in larger quantities with lower k/ca foods OR I work my *kitten* off doing cardio. My choice. And quite honestly after 2 months and my body adapting to this healthier…

My husband is in this with me. He does not log his food on MFP although at first he did. In September he had a near fatal heart attack. It was his second. We "changed" our eating habits when he had his first one 11 yrs ago but both had full time jobs, worked insane hours with 40++ hour work weeks.... and rarely had time to…

marinaded in a caesar dressing and topped with parm under the broiler.

Very inspirational to see your transformation! WOW!

Absolutely Amazing..... you are a very beautiful woman!

I have been doing 1200 k/cal since before Thanksgiving and 99% of the time I am not hungry. I eat lots...but I have learned to eat LOTS of the good stuff including whole grain breads and pasta and fresh veggies and fruits, nuts and dried fruit, etc. Pls, don't beat yourselves up about going over the 1200. For most of you…

timely post. bought new bra's today. went down a measurement size not cup size. 2 months ago I needed to buy a bigger size....had tons of "fluff" over the sides and out the cups. Today at work it was sliding around and very annoying. I have already made my peace with the departure of the "girls"...:sad: just wish they'd…

In the bathroom where I get ready for work. I weigh almost every morning and right before I get dressed to go to work. Before I have had breakfast, coffee, anything. Same time, every day, same conditions when I am at my "lightest".

Add me pls. I am on exercise bike 5-6 days a week!

I am on the fan bike riding. January 2nd - 2.0 miles January 5th - 5.0 miles I have to get back on track!! And I won't cut it to do 2012 miles in 2012 by an occasional ride! For those who missed it, this is where I am logging it…

My husband is retired and I am a Banker. We have a small hobby farm and raise fresh vegetables. We also have an endless supply of eggs from our very content…

Yes, I decide which way to go and keep logging it....same with my friend who does it on the map. For me it helps to visualize just how many miles I have completed....

This is how I have been logging my miles..... http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=208579463279936013990.0004b3a0073e565676326&msa=0 A friend of mine is a dedicated runner and she does the same thing (gave me the idea) but she does it on a real map. Each year she changes colors....

I would love to join but only if I can do your 2000+ using an alternative method....I don't walk well sometimes and lately I have had an additional problem that prevents me from walking well....but I can pedal a mean fan (exercise) bike! I do appx 5 miles on it 4-5 times a week....some weeks are better. So, can you modify…

AMEN!

I agree, take it with a smile, and re-gift it ...if you feel bad about re-gifting there are websites to sell and/or trade it. I am assuming that their are no healthy choices at this place??

My goal is to be on the backside of 175 solid. Between 170 and 175.....and at 170 by Feb 1st.
