I have the same 11am hunger pangs and usually resort to a 1/2 serving size of almonds, a hard boiled egg, or a low fat mozzarella stick. I find a protein filled snack will keep the hunger at bay. If I have a carb filled snack during this time it will not satisfy my hunger pain. Of course everyone is different but this is…

This is a fun post because I'm always wondering what others' measurements are for their weight and height. 5'8 weight 145 bust 35.5 waist 30 hips 37.5 The weight I have left to lose is in my mid section unfortunatly...ugh!

1. Eggs 2. Greek Yogurt 3. Sprouted Wheat Bread 4. Fruit (blueberries are my fav right now) 5. Almond Milk

This morning I had a slice of sprouted wheat toast with laughing cow light french onion cheese wedge, 1 tomatoe sliced on top with 3 mint leaves and a cup of coffee with almond milk and stevia sweetner. Total calories are under 200. Other ideas: -1 Egg, 1 slice of whole wheat toast, a 1 cup of strawberries and coffee (this…

CONGRATS!!! It's so wonderful when we reach our goals, and such a great idea to have "mini goals". I do the same and it keeps me motivated. GREAT JOB!!

Eat 1/2 with a cup of tea or whatever you like to drink. You get the cookie craving out of the way but don't consume as much calories!

I lost about 7 pounds the first month, i am now two weeks into my second month and lost an additional 3. I am down to my last 13 pounds to lose. I would imagine that people that have more to lose, lose more the first month then I did.

There could be a number of reasons. Please don't give up! I do think your calorie intake is pretty high, can't be totally certain of this since I am not certified in fitness. I started on MFP at 163 pounds and was set to "lightly active" lifestyle and my calorie allowance was 1480. (losing 1 pound a week) I do notice since…

I chose my goal weight of 140 because it was my "prepregnancy" weight before giving birth to my last and 2nd child. I also took my age into consideration and felt this was a "realistic" weight for me. I'm 5'8 so weighing 140 would allow me to fit in size 6/8 and I think that will be good. I think it's really what you feel…

Thanks so much for putting this together! Just added some of my measurements then realized that i put them in inches instead of cm. I will change them tomorrow as well as add the rest of the measurements!! So excited and motivated for this!! This was a great idea, thanks again!

I'm also 5'8 and my goal weight is 140. SW: 164 CW: 154 GW: 140 Most of my weight is in my gut so I feel I need to go down to 140 for my belly to look somewhat normal. I'm a size 8-10 now and at 140 I should be more of a 6-8.

Hi There, I would love to participate! I just purchased the shred it with weights video and should be receiving it by May 1st so this is perfect! Count me in! I could use the group support!

Hi there! Welcome! I'm sorta a newby myself, joining MFP in January but really not getting on track until a little over a month ago! Good Luck and again Welcome!:smile:

I weigh myself almost everyday. This has helped me to see my weight fluctuations, especially at certain times of the month. Prior to doing this I have not had success losing weight because I would see a "gain" and not quite know where it came from and get discouraged. I don't record my weight everyday on MFP but I do…

What triggered it for me was the owner of the local fitness center had emailed me a "diet plan". It basically broke the day down into three meals and three snacks. This was how I was introduced to "ezekial bread" which is part of my staple now. I went to the local "trader joe's" and just stocked up on healthy meal options.…
