I know toning is also supposed to help. As for loosing weight to fast that's a main factor why I've stayed away from Atkins and Gastric Bypass due to the rapid weight loss. There are other factors I've stayed away, but that's a whole other thread for me to rant about lol.

Excellent job!

Three hershey kiss almonds and a chocolate cupcake with (I think) the top was dipped in chocolate. instead of chocolate icing Sad thing is the cupcake wasn't even that good, very bland, but I still logged it. I've got ballet and kickboxing tonight so by the end of the night I'll still have lots of extra calories to use.…

When did you live in Delanco? My parents used to own the 7-11 there from 1983-1998.

I grew up on the other side of Moorestown in Delran

Congrats on the weightloss and maintaining. Hopefully you have found a new job, if not good luck. I've been through the whole unemployment thing for 15 months, so I know what you are/were going through.

South Jersey girl here (Mt. Laurel). I have to note that this thread should probably be in chit-chat and not success stories.

I did the original Firm workouts when they first came out and loved them, but they are all on VHS, need to get the DVD versions. I haven't tried the Firm Express workouts, but one of the trainers for Firm Express, Kelsie, teaches kickboxing at the studio I go to and she is amazing.

Organic Soy Chips from Wegmans. The come in many flavors and you get 20 chips at 110 calories. If you're craving crunch they are great

The only thing that makes it seem unhealthy to me is the sodium. Ham especially if it's lunch meat style is very high in sodium. Other then that sounds yummy, I would try it myself if I liked ham.

I know this is probably a silly question, but 10oz pasta dry or cooked?

You can have body confidence without wearing revealing clothing. If you truly have confidence in how you look it will show through body language and not how much leg or cleavage you show. At the same time if you have worked hard and reached your goals there is nothing wrong with wanting to show off your new amazing body.

A lot of people on here do do Zumba including myself, but it seems a lot do the actual classes. If the total body pack includes the weights I say go for it. I take classes where it's regular zumba and I take one that incorporates the weights, which I really love. If you search Zumba on here, you fight find that someone…

I find that buying the Think Thin bars directly from their website is cheaper and they usually have coupons online

1 hour tap class followed by a 1-1.5 hour ballet class after work.

I input everything, well almost, the night before especially if I know I will be exercising the next day. I like to have an idea of where I am and what little extras I might need to pack to meet my caloric goal. Also it allows me to know if I have any wiggle room if we go out to lunch last minute at work or someone brings…

Always willing to take fitness advice also

Please feel free to add me got about 150lbs to go.

I got mine down to 48 calories a serving, but I used reduced fat vanilla wafers as the crust and sugar free coconut milk. Something went wrong somewhere because some of the pudding clumped up. I don't know if it was the vanilla I added or the coconut milk. I'm thinking the coconut milk because there was a little after…

Wow I feel like I really lucked out in the bullying department. I went to a school where from pre-K to 12th it was pretty much the same people. I was never popular or really fit in with the clubs I belonged to, but I had a great group of friends and pretty much had a friend in every group. Sure there were some comments…

A HRM is probably the best thing to get if you don't have one, I know I need one. My exercise of choice is dancing and since I've noticed that MFP calories burned seems to be way off, if I take an hour dance class I'll only enter in 45 minutes, because it takes time for my HR to build up and we always do a cool down. As…
