My new fav that I keep in the house is arugula. It is much better for salads that iceberg and romaine lettuce. It has an almost kind of peppery flavor, it doesn't wilt easy and it goes with a lot of things. I wash it as soon as I bring it home then put it in a container so when I'm making a meal, i can just grab a handful…

Pop Tarts, frosted, strawberry.

Down 15 lbs since I started this. Kind of worried that i'm losing muscle.......I have got to plan my eating better so I'm not trying to get in a lot of calories at the end of the day.

@ deena. I've been called thick but it was said as a compliment :-) the others though, were mean.

my older brother told me i was so ugly my parents had to be paid to bring me home from the hospital. I told him he looked like a monkey's a** directly after a bowel movement so I guess we are even.

Hi I'm Tika and I'm a recovering Pop Tart addict. I have come to the realization that I can NOT have them in my home nor can I spend too much time looking at them in the vending machine at work. If I do, I fall off the Pop Tart wagon and before I know it, I've inhaled about 8 of them and I'm in a carb, sugar, fat daze. I…

Read Pride and Prejudice. Loved it. some of my other favs. Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver. Kill the Messenger by Tami Hoag was outstanding!!! Silk and Scandal Series (written by a group of women for Harlequin - Regency England setting) Harry Potter, Chronicles of Narnia and Charlie Bone series are great for kids…

Happy Friday to All!!!! so far so good. clean eating, workouts on most days and consuming at least 1200 everyday. I weigh in on Saturdays so have no idea how much, if any, I've lost. But its okay. Even if the scale doesn't move this week, I've already lost 8.5 lbs in January and I feel better.

you need a pic instead of the generic avatar :-)

crickets! and driving on bridges that go over water.

Yeah, I'm so gonna get kicked out of Rack City..........The Girls are always the first thing to get smaller. If I could just keep my boobs of today with my body from college I'd be a happy camper!

ummmmm, my fork? Which would explain my weight issues! :-)

mix cottage cheese, a banana, a bit of splenda in a blender. YUM!!

my MFP goal is 1400 calories a day but i'm averaging around 1180 calories a day and it's bothering me. I know I need to get more food in but I'm not really hungry. I'm not stuffed either. I need to plan my food better.....
-
If you continue to eat at around 600 - 800 calories you are gong to have some serious problems. Your body needs fuel to do the every day things and if it doesn't get it, it will kick into starvation mode and begin to use muscle as fuel which is a bad thing. Get your calories in. Your metabolism also doesn't shut off at…

when your underwear are so big they can be mistaken for pillow cases. (not mine!!)

i wouldn't necessarily consider these people snobs. I have only two friends and will probably delete even those. I am on the site to read tips and get support in general. I dont need a "friend" to do that, i just read the forum, check out all the great success stories, track my own food & exercise and I'm good. Then again,…

Pop Tarts and potatoes. I'm afraid of Pop Tarts because if I eat one, then I'm eating the whole box. They are banned from my house. Potatoes are okay unless........they sit somewhere in a dark space, all forgotten and then those things start to grow. They look like alien tentacles just waiting to attach themselves to some…

5 - 6 times a week, between 40 and 75 minutes depending on how I feel. Always do at least 40 minutes of cardio and have added weight lifting to the mix.
-
the stationary bike calories are ridiculously off. I don't eat back the calories that MFP says I should or I'd be eating close to 2000 calories a day. Instead my calorie goal is set between 1200 and 1400 per day. As I lose weight and am able to do higher intensity exercises then I'll increase my caloric intake again.
-
not an odd topic at all. I'm in a D cup but know that by the time I get to goal i'll be back in a B :-( Ah well. Thanks to Victoria's Secret, at least I can still fake it! LOL!!!

WW question for all. How often do you dip into the extra 49 points they give you for the week? I have yet to use any of them, i try ot eat my 27 points and if I want more food, I use the ponts I earn thru exercise. What are others doing?
-
I'm dong WW and am loving it. I use WW to track points and MFP to make sure my calories stay at at least 1200. If i don't pay attention I can get in all my points but still be at around 900 - 1000 calories for the day which is bad!!! I created a spreadsheet that tracks my points for each meal, fat, carbs, fiber, protein…

another great week, down two more lbs, have been better at getting in at least 1200 calories and have added lunges, squats, bicep and tricep work into the exercise routine. I also spent about 60 bucks in the produce department and then tried 4 new recipes this weekend. next week's goal is to get in some yoga at least twice…

Perhaps you should only hop on the scale once a week. and take your measurements- they are a great way to track real progress. one of the best ways to jack up progress is to become a slave to the scale, it can really wreak havoc with your motivation and will power. I finally tossed mine out so I CAN'T weigh more than once…

Breakfast was cereal and lunch was whatever the school served. For dinner we always had a meat, a starch and a green vegetable such as salisbury steak, mashed potatoes and turnip greens or hamburger helper and spinach. and Kool-aid. cleaning the plate was mandatory and there was no saying "i don't like this!" After dinner…

i have always had weight issues but have never been as heavy as I am now. i just started eating to fill time when I was bored, which I know is wrong. then i got sad about being overweight so I ate some more to cheer up. Not the smartest of ways to cheer up, but hey, I'm not perfect.
