I also love a square of 70 % dark chocolate dipped into peanut butter. MMM

Homemade hot cocoa. 1/2 skim milk, 1 1/2 teaspoons cocoa power,1 splenda packet ,top up cup with water. Microwave for 3 minutes stirring in between. Comes to 58 cals,throw a few marshmallows on top for a 100 calorie treat. Takes long enough to make and drink you will forget about your other cravings.

Could be a uti, yeast infection. Actually I have heard of this being a common problem in males as they enter puberty,perhaps it happens to girls too.

mine is learningtolove because I have dealt ith self esteem issues and depression my whole life. Mfp is part of me taking control of myself in a responsible way and "learningtolove" myself through all my ups and downs.

Sometimes I have the lean cousine with a side salad or a piece of fruit for lunch all the time

Graduated in 2010 at 140 pounds. Now a little over a year and a half later I weight 116.

Im from Dartmouth Nova Scotia,fellow maritimers feel free to add me :)

are you sure you've only lost 21 pounds?! You look great,like you've lost at least 30! You must do a lot of toning exercises.

I've never heard of baking mix or cheese soup. But I do have a ton of turkey sausages sitting in my freezer

err,double post again.

oh,I also like to spice up a traditional chicken salad by adding spinach,tomato and onion and curry powder,its super yummy and tastes dreamy on a wrap.

make your salads "fun" I add just about every veggie in the fridge,from broccoli to snap peas. Add things like leftover chicken or steak or top with tuna or an egg. Buy "salad crispers" or fancy croutons to add a carb,or buy a new exciting salad dressing. I am big on salad for lunch since breakfast is usually high carb and…

my birthday suit ;)

either suck it up and workout anyways -at a lesser intensity. OR just relax ,keep the cals in check drink lots of fluid and vitamin c and get better fast so you can get back at it.

Another interesting tidbit. I am 5' 3" and 116 ish pounds ( and going down) and have never been more then 140 and my mother is 5'6'' ish and is morbidly obese,and has been overweight her entire life. So you can't always accredit your upbringing as to whether you are thick or thin.

Looks like you lost 50-60 pounds

HA! I have several sisters and we ALL have different body types I am 5'3" and have never weighed more then 140 pounds. My older sister is like 5'8" and usually weighs around 200. My younger sister is 5'6"ish and is about 180 but with a lot of muscle from sports ( aka she is built like a linebacker) AND has a bootie to…

A low cal winter treat is 1/2 cup skim milk,1/2 tablespoon cocoa powder,and a splenda. Top up with water and microwave for 2 minutes stirring halfway. -You've got yourself 60 cal rich hot chocolate. Plus it takes up time to get everything together and make it and then to cool down to drink. Its sure to kill at least half…

Oh yeah,and also try to weigh yourself the same time everyday. I weigh in the mornings ,before I eat,after a BM and in the nude :P

Could be your muscles are retaining water from the gym,or could be water retention from high sodium. Could your time of month be coming? That can make you bloat too. It is actually really common to "gain" weight during the first 2-3 weeks. Its almost like an extra challenge . Those that fight through see results! I bet you…

I lost a baby in September,and I am still strugging to lose the weight I gained during my pregnancy. Give yourself as much time to heal as you need.It will take time,but it gets a little easier to bear everyday.
