Love it - every bit, the story, the pictures, and most of all, the success!

You look amazing! Great work!

Hello all! I know I've been MIA lately and I apologize. I do have a very valid excuse. I hope to be a bit more attentive on here, but please don't lose faith in me if I slip again. From what I can tell everyone is doing a great job! I saw lots of BIG login milestones and pounds lost just this morning. Way to go!! Have a…

I haven't done diet soda with cake mix, but I have used Egg Beaters and unsweetened applesauce in lieu of eggs and oil and it was very moist and delicious.

Those are my thoughts on the matter as well . . . it can create some serious trust issues too. Make your spouse wonder just how far you'd take things with someone else.

nevermind

Ha! Debbie - you are definitely more committed than I am. I skipped out on logging all day Saturday. I logged in and started to, then got sidetracked and just forgot about. We were out running around and then my son had friends over . . . I was probably way over anyway, so it would've just been depressing. Now instead of…

Yeah - totally NOT cool. You should never ask a woman that unless you are 100% positive she's pregnant. Well, I hadn't been on the board for a while, so I thought I'd creep on over. :wink: Hope everyone is well. I've decided to cancel my gym membership - I have stopped making it worth the investment because I'm just too…

But wait . . . which part? :wink:

Why must everything be "labeled"? :tongue:

Yes

I'm really gonna have to try this oatmeal . . . perhaps an expirement for the weekend. I will tell you that I have a recipe for protein oatmeal banana panakes that is ridiculously good . . . like eating banana bread and incredibly filling. I never need a mid-morning snack when I have them for breakfast. Anyone else…

<<<< This is what my iPhone app told me after completing my diary one evening while the site was "down". It amuses me a great deal. :laugh:

I'm so with you on this, and I'm no where near my goals! I had just been unsuccessful for so long that the little success I finally had apparently went to my head. :ohwell:

No microwave at my office, 45 minutes from home, VERY tight budget . . . I eat PB&J for lunch A LOT. Fortunately, I'm not sick of it yet. Here's what I use for a 263 calorie PB&J . . . Sara Lee 45 Calories & Delightful 100% Whole Grain bread - 2 slices, 90 calories Smart Balance Omega-3 All Natural Rich Roast Peanut Butter…

Or when the "back up" is also out . . . gee, that really instills confidence in the company you're attempting to work with, huh? :huh:

Geez . . . I wander away for a few measly weeks and you guys change up the whole format! :wink: Hope you're all having a great week so far. After several weeks of random eating, logging, and sporadic exercise I had been maintaining the same weight, which I was totally okay with given my behavior. This morning I was…

Hey, at least you own up to it. :drinker:

Me too - my favorite answer

Most of my quirks are food-related . . . When eating chips or fries, I MUST start with the smallest bits and work my way up, saving the larger or whole pieces for last. When eating colored candies, cereal, etc. I like to eat it down to the point where I have a pattern of colors - same number of each or 2 of one, 3 of the…

Nashville area here

^^AMEN!! First of all, thank you all for the kind words yesterday. I was really excited about getting into that dress and actually feeling good about it. :smile: I hope everyone has had a fabulous week. Mine went by pretty quickly considering I've been waiting on pins and needles about this job and operating in a bit of a…

B for certain

I loooooooooove cheesecake

Hello all - it's almost Friday!! Hope everyone is having a great week. I've been seeing lots of new faces - love it!! I need to get back in the swing of checking in every day. Anyway, I just wanted to pop in and share my small victory. This is definitely motivation for me to keep it up. 5 lbs lost + 2 months of lifting =…

Long time no see - back at the office after a very busy 4 days and lots of bad eating. I'm trying to get back on track today, hoping I'm up to hitting the gym after work. It's not feeling very promising at the moment. My allergies have gotten worse - I'm thinking it may even be a sinus or ear infection at this point. I'm…

see shorty's topic post instead

There's nothing wrong with getting angry and frustrated, so long as you let it fuel you to try that much harder, rather than hold you back. I think we all know how you use it. :wink: You've come a long way, and you're bound to go farther still!!

I understand where you're coming from on the "being watched". I don't like it either. Maybe you could get her to join you in exercising? Under the circumstances, it may be really good for her. It's possible she's feeling lonely and depressed. I know since my dad passed away my mother stopped cooking. It's all microwave…
