I am new and have no friends, and I have no clue how to add people. Any and all friends welcome.

Add me as a friend please. I can't seem to figure out how to do it.

The theme song too the Banana Bunch t.v. show. "One banana, two banana, three banana four... five banana, six banana, seven banana more. La la la , la la la la....."

I am of the thought here, that with everyone raving about making your own food, they need to share the recipes with those of us who want to try it. Maybe even share a web site? For general recipes I go to www.allrecipes.com and try the ones that have the most votes/stars.

If you find something really good let us all know. Right now I am just sticking with any old cookie dough and putting in the recipie in MFP with each cookie being 1 serving. Then I just eat 1 or 2 cookies. You can also find the cake mixed made with Splenda at the store and make cup cakes. Try topping them with cool whip…

Never heard that it actually helps weight loss. Could be that it gives you an energy boost to get you moving and motivated to exercise. I know that when I am craving something warm and sweet it is my go to drink. Low in calories and I can put as much 0 cal sweetener in it that I want. I can also use any kind of flavored…

Like everyone else says, peanut butter and nuts are good options. You can also try having a cup of skim milk with your meals. Another yummy option would be to have a homemade smoothie. Yogurt, frozen fruit of your choice and milk. If you want it a little sweeter toss in a packet of sweetener.

My question is: How are you "blowing it? If you are sitting and doing something in the evening that is leading you to eat. STOP and go do something else. If you know you are going to want to snack in the evening and want chocolate then allot for it and have some. Just dont go nuts. I have 2 snack size snickers in the…

You took the first giant step in starting a life change. Change is never easy, but this change is so very worth it. I just started myself. I have been over weight all of my life and when I started this monday I was 249 pounds! Just a few days in and I have already lost almost 4 pounds. This is not typical and should taper…

Agreed! I can never give up on chocolate. When I first found out I had diabetes 3 years ago I made a life change then. I got my A1C down to 5.6 from 8.7 and I lost 30 pounds in about 4 months and still did not give up my chocolate. I bought bite size 3 musketeers and kept them in the freezer. For a snack I allowed myself…

NEVER GIVE UP! NEVER SURRENDER! Yes I must agree, very cheesy, but good movie.

If my memory serves me, to much coconut water with give you very loose stools, so be careful with that. You can look online for a list of foods that contain potassium. Potatoes are a good source as well as bananas. You can also look into low calorie sports drinks. They have potassium and will help with hydration. Just be…

http://www.healthchecksystems.com/heightweightchart.htm Go here to find a height weight chart to see what your weight should be for your height. Make sure to look at the men's not the women's LOL.

Thanks so much for all of your support. I am going to take this a week at a time, and if that seems impossible then I will take it 1 day at a time. So far I have only changed 2 things in my life, Eat 3 meals a day and pay attention to what and when I am eating, and try to get some exercise in at least 3 times a week if not…

Hi! I am Gayle and just started here. I need lots of friends and support. I am a 38 year old stay at home mom of 2 teen sons. I also am the caregiver for my mother and father-in-law, as well as my disabled husband. I have about 100lbs to loose...so I am going to be around awhile and need lots of support.

I am a stay at home mom... mine are a bit older at 17 and 15!! LOL Actually I am home caring for my disabled in-laws and disabled husband as well as the teen boys. After all that...I think I need to BE COMMITTED!

I never really thought of goals for next year. I have not even thought of a goal at all. Just kinda starting out in this and taking it one step at a time. I just realized that it scares me to death to consider a 1 year goal because I am too afraid that I wont make it. How about this for now. I want to HAVE to buy a new…

Hey J... I just started on here and have no clue how the whole friend thing works, but I will be as supportive as I can.

What I want, chocolate, cookies, a back rub, romance and lots of GOOD nookie. No wonder I am fat..I only ever get the chocolate and cookies!
