Egg muffins! (aka crustless mini-quiche) I follow this recipe. http://www.kalynskitchen.com/2006/10/egg-muffins-revisited-again.html Mine do look quite a lot like her pictures - I invested in a silicone muffin tin and it's been so very worth it. Everything comes out of it super easy and no added oil from greasing the pan.…

Bump!

That's awesome! :)

So sorry, had to close the room while I moved my computer. I'm in http://turntable.fm/mfp_fitness_dance_party

Hi Seajolly! Isn't it fun?! :)

Aww, that's too bad. :(

There are some interesting sounding "mommy and me" exercise dvds out there you might try. Get your child active and fit NOW to build the habit for a lifetime, and you'll have fun bonding and "playing" while you do the dvd.

I definitely didn't make the calorie-burn challenge, due to not having time AT ALL on Tuesday. But I did my best to get 500/day the rest of the week. My appetite has been WEIRD this week so I haven't really eaten enough - which thankfully means I am down 3.1 pounds this week! WOOHOO! But I'm a bit worried about just HOW…

Well I did great with 600 calories on the treadmill on Monday; I set up my laptop and commented on statuses here and played Farmville!!! Not going fast on the treadmill, just walking (with a quick jog on game load screens) but over an hour flew by so that added up to a good number. Yesterday, I didn't get ANY exercise. :(…

"for the last few weeks" Well, my first thought is that it could be a "female" issue, based on the timing there! Or it could be your body holding onto water aka water retention. It's counter-intuitive, but drinking more water helps with that. Or it could be related to *ahem* other retention, the kind that some fiber will…

Yeah, this is more than the usual stickiness around the edges, it had turned very liquid. And the patch came entirely unstuck in the shower afterward, so I felt safest just replacing entirely.

Adding you! :)

I am barely in my twenties, I guess... I just turned 29 a few days ago! But I would LOVE some more pals. :)

Exercise every day, and try to eat a bit more (I know! Sounds crazy but it looks like your net calories is under 1200 a lot of days... add just a couple hundred... an apple and natural PB maybe). Also try to make sure you drink plenty of water, that always helps me when I need the scale to budge.

Welcome!!! You can do this. Get yourself a good posse of pals for support, eat right, exercise, and you will see results in no time! :)

Woop woop! I'm on team red! Just sent a message to my team captain. Gotta see if I can kick some water weight today and tomorrow or ten lbs in August might be too easy!!! :D I am up 2.5 in the past day or so, so yeah... today's weight is probably not an accurate start weight. Feel free to add me Team Red folks!!!! Ok,…

Feel free to add me, I love new friends! :)

Feel free to add me too! I am def in a similar age and weight-to-lose bracket. :)

I'm near Boston, but I don't drive so I would not be able to make it unless it was T accessible - but I am interested!

Thanks so much everyone - your kinds words are a big part of what made this birthday extra rockin'! It was incredible to read all your comments... I never thought I'd have pictures to post to the Success Stories and I'm thrilled to be able to share and relieved that other people really do see the difference! Sometimes you…

Hot damn, man! Way to rock it!

To be honest, not much. A little treadmill, a little hiking, but I've not been diligent about it. Most of this is diet alone. But I am planning to really up my game and add more exercise to keep up the rate of loss - actually about a lb a week, because most of the loss is in the past three months.

Going through it as well, for me it's definitely the birth control. I switched to a different type and it seems to help, but maybe going off it is what triggered it with you? I'd ask your doctor, if you're comfortable with them.

Right there with ya! Adding you! :)

Wow, sounds like you've got a more intensive plan than I do! But I am definitely looking for more support and accountability, so feel free to friend me. :) Personally I'm just watching my calorie intake with a focus on avoiding simple carbs as much as I can. I'm hoping to add more exercise, probably in the form of the…

Thanks so much for the requests! Just giving this a wee "bump" to the top before I hit the hay. If you could please reply here if you are sending a friend request, I'd really appreciate it... just so it doesn't get buried QUITE so fast. :)

EXACTLY what I was gonna post! :)

Absolutely, motivational pals is such a requisite for success! <3 Added everyone here, anyone else who reads this can add me too. :)

Vitamin D supplements help me and my sweetie - about 4000 IU a day seems to take the edge off. And I agree 100% with the exercise! A good playlist of music that makes you happy - and makes you move more - and 30-60 minutes on the treadmill has been helping me too. Best of luck, I have struggled with depression my whole…

Bumping up, still eagerly accepting more new buddies. :)
