I'm in! I had a miserable winter and did nothing but hide in my blankets. Now we don't even have spring because It's still snowing here! Well today is supposed to be nice I hope it stays this way! Needless to say my motivation has been ZIP! That's what I get for living in Michigan's beautiful Upper Peninsula I guess lol On…

I use it purely to help cut out some of my sugar intake which in turn cuts my calories down. I LOVE sweet stuff so I find that it helps a LOT! I actually find I prefer the taste of it in my tea or coffee over real sugar now so I personally consider that a benefit :smile:

Been busy at moms house. Lol the new puppy we named Daisy is such a pill! She's very smart and first thing she discovered before mom and I had to drive 3-4 hours to get my sis from college was how to get out of the fence. We ended up taking her with us. Surprisingly she was the calmest did we've ever had in a car lol. She…

Oh it's a hand full all right but the dogs are so funny! It will be even more fun now. Mom just got a 5 month old puppy 2 days ago. Her name is Angel and she s anything but haha She's only 15 pounds and short but mom found her on the kitchen table the first day. Then mom woke up this morning to a 5 pound bag of potting…

I've been there done that and found out in the end he was cheating on me with 6 other women. I'm sorry to say it but move on. There are better people out there as hard to believe as that is. I know from experience it's true. It will hurt at first but you will feel SO much better in the end! I had a lot of health issues and…

look up the 321 cake on here. I've been doing that all month and have stopped craving so many sweets because I no longer feel deprived. I usually eat 1-2 servings of it before bed. Now that I've run out of mix a week before I go food shopping and right before Aunt Flow I'm DIEING for something sweet and chocolaty. It…

I'm still here. Was doing really good up until about a week ago. It's just been a bit stressful round here though I'm still trying. I've not been logging the last several days cause I've simply been feeling sick. I have no choice to get back on the chores track tomorrow though cause we have an inspection on the 8th. goody…

I can't really afford to use a space heater. I wouldn't have been able to afford the heat this year as is if I hadn't thought ahead and started paying extra during the summer months. Last year it wasn't this bad so we only turned the heat on once or twice a day. If it was my choice we would move. Problem is we have a dog.…

Probably not. I don't sleep as good in the winter in this apartment. I sleep down stairs on the couch. It's just to cold upstairs in the winter even with the heat on. Since I've been sleeping down here since about November and I won't share the broken pull out bed with my Fiancee it probably effects me more than I like to…

I've been doing pretty good for me. Today I'm having I don';t give a crap day though lol I'm still logging my food but I just feel so tired. I didn't sleep good at all last night. Also since I started trying to be more active I have found myself feeling more tired than normal. So today I upped my calorie intake from 1400…

Good morning! :) I've been doing great! Well aside from some seasonal depression. It's STILL snowing where I live :( I fear we will never see the sun and grass again lol! I've been getting up and doing chores around the house about every other day. Normally my Fiancee does all the chores and cooking. He's not been feeling…

yeah some of the other polar ones do. you can go to their site and choose your features I think :)
-
even though they list em as men's / woman's as far as I know they are unisex. the bands have holes the entire way so if you have tiny wrists like I do it's not an issue.
-
I just bought my first HRM a Polar FT4. I LOVE it! I've only used it twice now and am already thinking of upgrading the the FT7 haha! I wanted something easy to use and it is! Plus it had better color choices :wink: I do wear the wrist band part all the time cause it makes for a nice watch! But I only use the chest band…

Hi all :) I'm Avalon or Ava for short. I don't plan on cutting things out per say just making healthier choices. My Fiancee and I have very limited income. We eat a LOT of pasta and cheap foods. He allowed me rein over the shopping list this month and I kept it as cheap and healthy as I could. I feel good about the…

Hey :) I started at 260 pounds several years ago. I'm now at 215ish. So it is possible! It was honestly fairly simple also once I had the "right" motivation. Granted I wouldn't wish the motivation I had on anyone! But it worked for me at the time. I was in a bad relationship and learned one day that taking out my anger on…

Hi I'm Ginger. I am 115.4 this morning. I'd like to be around the 200 mark for my short term goal so that is what I will work towards. My long term goal is around 130-135. My goal for this time next year is simply to be healthier and able to walk up our stairs to potty with out wanting to collapse. Then again if I could…

My mom is Diabetic and suffering from some kind of issues. The doctor wants her to go gluten free to see if it helps. I'll be interested to know what is discovered here She too is struggling with it and just doesn't have a lot of energy to cook HUGE meals that only she will be eating.
