  • LOL yeah I can totally relate. Before I step on the scale, I say a lil prayer (and I'm not the religious type).. hoping the scale will be nice to me.. I'm doing everything right but I can't shake that irrational fear. Just a few minutes ago, I said to my roommate "Watch, tomorrow it's going to say I gained weight."…

    in Has anyone tried/had success with Alli? Comment by kemeko January 2012
  • Isn't Alli the same things as Xenical (Orlistat) but just a smaller dosage? I took it YEARS ago but I didn't find it to be particularly helpful. What Orlistat does is block your body's ability to absorb fat. Fat wasn't the only thing making me overweight, so instead of losing weight I just had a fear of fatty foods and…

  • Honestly, I eat up until 3 hours before bedtime. All accounted for and logged. I usually have my last "meal" at around 9 PM. I go to bed around midnight. This keeps my metabolism going and curbs me from craving too much of the bad stuff.
    in How do you stop night cravings? Comment by kemeko January 2012
  • Surprisingly, they reheat really well. The amount of egg in each quiche is almost negligible. I think the egg is only there to keep all the veggies in place/together. Give it a shot. :-)

  • I've heard the Couch to 5K program is the best. You can find it here: http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml I'm going to aggresively start following the program soon... I've signed up for a few 5Ks and want to make sure I survive :-p
    in Best way to start running? Comment by kemeko January 2012
  • I bake them at 350F for approx 20 minutes. Or until a knife inserted in the middle of the mini-quiche comes out clean! :smile: The ingredient list can vary, but mine usually consist of: 3 large eggs 1 package frozen chopped spinach 3/4 cup shredded reduced-fat cheese 1 cup mixed veggies (red/green peppers, onions, maybe…

  • I drink more water... but if that fails, I munch on some almonds or pistachios. Not too many, but enough to keep me satiated until my next meal. Just remember to log whatever you decide to munch on. :smile:
    in I AM STARVING Comment by kemeko January 2012
  • I only just completed my first month... but I started eating around 1200 calories. It was a struggle and after the water weight loss, I gained and lost the same 3-4 pounds for a week. I ended up increasing my calories to around 1400 and so far so good. I'm losing again and feel great. Sometimes its a bit difficult to get…
    in when you first started Comment by kemeko January 2012
  • Definitely check out Aldi. This is a great supermarket for people on a tight budget. I've found that I can get milk at $1.00+/gallon cheaper here than anywhere. Eggs are similarly inexpensive. They have a decent produce and meat selection too. They mostly sell off-brands, but I've found most of the food to be great…
    in Really need help!!! Comment by kemeko January 2012
  • This is actually a great suggestion. I've made mini breakfast quiches over the weekend and they last forever. All it takes in the morning is to pop 2 of these in the microwave for a couple minutes, add a few drops of hot sauce (yum) and breakfast is served! The best part, they are portable too.

  • My top ten... err twelve: 1- Eggs 2- Fat Free Milk 3- Coffee 4- Frozen Steamable Veggies (broccoli, cauliflower, spinach etc)... in case I run out of something 5- Salsa ---- Great topping for just about anything 6- Fat Free Yogurt 7- Lettuce / Salad Mix 8- Nuts, preferrably almonds or pistachios 9- Lean meats, chicken…

  • Chocolate anything.... candy bar, brownies, cake. Actually any kind of cake or cupcake would be in danger if it was within reach. But I don't know... all this talk about pizza has me hungry! :frown:
    in Foods you are powerless over? Comment by kemeko January 2012
  • I normally have a two egg scramble with lots of veggies (onions, peppers, tomato, etc) topped with salsa, along with a slice of whole wheat bread, 4 oz coffee and skim milk. I'm good for a least a good 3-4 hours.

  • Anyone doing Miles for Hope on 2/11 (Baldwin Park) or Chiefs on the Run on 2/25 (Maitland)? I'll likely NOT be ready to run the whole thing, but I am going to challenge myself! Hope to see more MFP peeps out there!
