  • the 3-2-1 chocolatey royale meal replacement shakes in canada are 276 cals. I bought a bunch to kick start my diet ...but i really don't do well with large amounts of sugary stuff. And they leave me hungry! So I haven't touched them since january - I still keep a couple bottles in my office drawer for emergencies. It…

  • The problem with oatmeal is that if I make it, I will eat the whole pot. With sugar. With raisins. With milk. Altogether too much deliciousness. Have not tried eating oatmeal on this 1200 cal diet! Recipe looks good! Thanks.

  • tofu, bean curd sticks, yogurt, are my go-tos. a few recipes for you. Don't know why people shy away from tofu. So quick and delicious, beats making meat based dishes. 1.) medium firm or "traditional" tofu. cube. dump in pan. toss with soy sauce and some kind of hot sauce (franks, sriracha, etc), and a bit of water. Steam…

  • Haha don't forget about the Chinese families! I know you're not really supposed to, but on big family dinner days I try eat and snack conservatively for the first half of the day in order to have 800-900 cals remaining by dinner time and then happily eat a hearty family dinner with the normal folk. My grandmothers are very…

  • Sounds like you're decently prepared - you'll be fine. Stick to the pace you've prepared for yourself, even if everybody else takes off super quickly at the start. You'll be passing a bunch of out of breath walkers around the 2k mark :). If you're feeling good at the 8K mark, challenge yourself to step it up a notch, and…

  • First impression: OH MY GAWD she's gorgeous! Really nice work, and your waistline is incredible. Hmm, maybe it's time I give the ol' P90X a try. Thanks for posting your 30 day results - nice to know what can happen in just one month.

  • Bellingham Bay Marathon Sept 2011 was my first...on a truly windstormy day! 5:27...felt like I was standing still on some of those miles. Doing the BMO Vancouver marathon in May 2012. Did the half in Vancouver last year. Should be fun, in my hometown. Hopefully will make it under the 5:00 mark this time. I run so slowly…

  • I've split up my meal settings on MFP into 1.) Breakfast - 9:30am 2.) Lunch 11:30-1:30 3.) Snack 1:30-3:30 4.) Snack 3:30-5:30 5.) Dinner 5:30-8:30 And I tell myself that I HAVE TO EAT at each interval, because if I miss one of the snacks (especially in the afternoon) I get sort of cranky and that blood sugar crashy…

  • Hi everyone! I just discovered the Leslie Sansone series around Christmas 2011 when I went to go visit my parents for the holidays. My mom has been having some health issues lately and I wanted to try something with her that would get her moving around a bit, even if it would be just a light walk. So I got her one of the…

  • Not sure what to tell you, but I hope this is a bit encouraging: One thing that happens to me on a regular basis (oh say every month or so) is ... HORMONAL SHIFTS!!! Oh the joys of being female...So the diet and exercise are going good for a while, then all of a sudden, for several days, I can't help but eat everything in…

  • I just started doing the Leslie Sansone series and now have a few dvds. They're really great! The intensity is not too high, so you can more easily exercise for longer periods of time. WAY BETTER than going for a walk. Basically it's low impact aerobics (except for 2 minute "boosters" on certain dvds where you jog a bit) -…

  • Another vote for the Sennheiser PMX 680 headphones. They just rest in your ears and the band goes around the back of your head. Might take a little bit of adjusting where your ponytail goes to avoid it bouncing against the headphone band. The headphones don't block out all external sound, which is good for safety while…
