youre fab!!

Thank you for your post. I try my best to cook... to no real avail.... Im the girl who tries to boil an egg and it explodes... that being said, I know I need to prepare my meals for the week in advanced, something I am working on!!!

I will not give up, I will not get a gastric band.. I will lose my weight and live a healthy life with exercise and diet!

thanks, great advice

opinion and judgement are two very different things friend.. if you saw someone crying would you laugh and call them stupid, or would you show care and empathy.

I love you! thanks for writing that!

Keep going strong friend!!!! Everyone has bad days, we are human! You can never go wrong exercising more than before and eating better than before!!! Keep moving forward!!!!

you know some people on here really show no respect for the fact that someone is trying to make changes. some changes are hard pills to swallow, but then again if you've been on your own journey you would know that already. I am not here to judge you, however your judgement of me and my posts really cant change the fact…

thank you so much!!!! do you suggest for eating something like oatmeal that is prepackaged like quaker instant oatmeal to scan so all the nutrition goes into the mfp???

is there a calculator to help determine that number that you think is good??? thanks for writing!

I am not looking for you solve the national deficit, so lets all just take a step back.. I am following a diet and if you would like I am more than happy to send you a copy of it. I am realizing it isnt doing much help, making my body function to the best of its capabilities. I certainly do not hate your advice and or…

yes I am taking a prenatal, i just recently miscarried.

so sweet and thank you so much for your input!!!!! I will continue to persevere, mfp does over estimate for almost all physical activity. I spoke with a fitness coach and I am not eating enough calories & she advised I eat oatmeal before Zumba, which i do daily but at night from wither 720-830 or 830 to 940; i have to do…

Special snowflake, so sweet, & thanks; sarcasm is a specialty of mine as well. I started using mfp a year and a half ago, I lost 33 lbs on a diet plan from a doctor in the DC area and then got pregnant, and then miscarried.. That happened 2 more times after that. so yep, I lost 33lbs, and thankfully kept it off, but since…

Cheers sweetie - I reckon that's it. This class even though it was in a massive gym had no limit and it was frustrating trying not to get hit in the face and hang on to 'my spot'. I love, love, love dancing - will have to try somewhere else. Thank you! Hildy; Youre so sweet!! Zumba.com has a link that says find a class.. I…

Thank you all for your POSITIVE information and helpful tips. Defensive, I am not, frustrated I am. Wore a fitbit and the Nike fuel band to Zumba last night and Nike Fuel band said 887 calories and fitbit said 732.. I really dont care about the exact number, I am just glad I am burning calories doing something I love. Even…

Then dont reply.. If someone is busting their *kitten*, and you dont like what they post and/ or their reaction to the posts, then why write back..

we will know more after I post tonight! I may be right, I may be wrong...

Hildy: to answer your ??? Maybe try a new studio. Where I go, the room is large and there are a set amount of people allowed in each class. The dance moves are repetitive, and a good instructor will go over them before and during.. I dont blame you about not wanting to hear anyone over a loud speaker, my instructors are on…

I am curious, do any of you who posted re Zumba actually do Zumba?

thanks all for your input. My quick ads for for 100 cal packs which with the diet I am following i am supposed to have 3 a day. The Zumba on mfp says 987 calories, which I also thought was insane, however when I wore my fuel band for just Zumba alone was showing 770-820 during a 6 day period of time. I did in fact go back…
