after a surgery in which I lost blood the Dr. instead of giving me blood had me eat a ton of spinach. I am un able to take iron supplements so this was the only way I could get enough. Eat lots and you should be able to bring it up. Put it in a smotthie fro breakfast or eggs if you eat them. A salad for lunch and maybe a…

I really pay attention to my sodium (prepared meals and such) as well as carbs. The protein I don't pay as much attention to as it makes me feel full longer as well as the fiber. I do try to stay within calorie limits and drink lots of water!

Wrights thick cut steakhouse bacon!

Great job and what a visual! I love it, I am so stealing it. I have lost 96 stick of butter!

awesomeness!

Christmas 2011 pctures and how many chins I had!

Excellent choices! Every day is a chance to make good ones.

THIS!

He hasn't given me the "talk" but he does dishes and such for me so that I have time to walk in the afternoon and evenings. He has never said anything about the weight I have put on but is happy that I am doing this for myself. The other nice thing is that he eats whatever I cook, so that makes it easy to stay on track.

Get fitted now. They will ask the purpose of the shoe and you can tell them. They will fit you with the correct shoe so as to make it more beneficial. I did and I am just starting to walk 2-4 miles every day. Best decision I have made besides jining MFP.

I can agree with everyone who says "go get fitted". I was one of those that thought it was only for runners. I went, got the fitting and that was the best decision I have ever made. They not only fitted me in a proper shoe but I learned alot in the process. Now I can walk tons and even have decent socks. Who knew it made…

I am under the impression that the chest strap ensures more accurate readings. I don't personally have one yet so I am just repeating what I have heard. I have several friends who have the Fitbit and love it. Even though it is not a HRM they say it motivates them to make sure they are moving more and more everyday. I think…

I have my diary set so that only my friends can see it, even that took a while cause I didn't want the flack I thought I would get for my alcohol consumption. I opened it just to them and have not gotten a single criticism. I am living proof that you can drink and have weight loss. I log it all and even plan other calories…

This, brought a tear to my eyes. Congrats on a job well done. Thanks for sharing.

I start in the morning and usually by lunch I have more that half of my 8 cups gone. Try adding lemon or lime juice to flavor it a bit. I don't count my coffee even though I drink it black no sugar.

Tomorrow will be 8 weeks for me and I am down 10lbs. I am slowly changing my diet and moving more. I have a lot to lose so I am making this something I can manage for the long term. For me it's about making a change I can live with. There are days when I feel really great and days when it's not so good but i am waking up…

LMAO!

I have lost 10lbs and I use the Wii and walk. I have zumba, Wii fit plus and Wii sports. Depending on your activity level I think they are good. If you aren't used to exercising at all then I think it would be a good motivator. If you are used to lots of exercise then you might not find it as challenging. I just got a new…

I did the HCG diet back in 1997. It does work and I ate 1500 calories a day. I kept it off for 7 years and then slowly started putting it back on. Reason for gain.....laziness and complacency. While I am not using it at the moment, I have found it to be beneficial if you have a medical professional helping you.

That is exactly how I feel today!

Salad of spinach and romaine, tomato, mushroom, and chicken apple sausage, it was really yummy.

I have made different versions of these and my husband and i love them. I use individual silicone muffin cups, bake them all on Sunday and we have enough for the week. Just heat them in the microwave in the cup. It's easy and yummy!

Healthy life has a 35 calorie slice and it is great. In white or wheat (I prefer the wheat)

I buy the thinnest ones possible, cut off the bottom ends and then marinate for about 30 minutes in garlic, olive oil and a little parmesan c heese. Then I either grill or do a quick saute so they cooked but not mushy. Love them!

We go to an island every year off the coast for Florida, this year I am lucky, we get to make 2 trips!

bump, thanks for sharing

1). You didn't put this on in a week and it won't come off in a week. 2). Set small goals so as not to overwhelm yourself. 3). Move your body as much as you can without causing harm (speaking from experience) 4). Have fun with MFP and use all the tools it gives you. Patience has never been my thing but I am learning it and…

You look mavelous, keep at it until you reach your goal.
