True - I'm sticking to the half/half for now. May try heavy cream and if I can use less of it, it just may work out.

No, I've not. Guess I will have to look that up.

Well, I have looked in each of our 3 grocery stores and they don't carry the So Delicious Creamer. *cries*

LOL... No actually I don't use 12 at a time. That is for 4 large mugs. Just easier to input it all at once. :laugh:

Thanks for your help everyone. Seems as though one is higher in CARBS (half & half) and the other is higher in CALORIES (heavy cream). I may just have to give up my evening coffee and switch to tea as I don't use any creamer in that. Thank you though! :smile: ~Cindy~

Hi Everyone! I'm not doing atkins per say, but I am doing low-carb and just keeping an eye on calories. Eh, the whole thing confuses me. Anyway, I have about a hundred or so more pounds to lose. Please add me if you like. ~Cindy~

Hi Everyone! I had Gastric RNY back in 2002 and yes... I'm the horror story you want to avoid. I'm so glad that you are all attacking this MUCH sooner than I did. At my heaviest I was 385lbs. I had my surgery and lost 200 lbs to 185. Then... I met a man (root of all evil... lol). I actually met him in an online support…

@skinnyjeanz ~ I would love to join you guys in NY. I most likely will be cheering you on on the sidelines though. :flowerforyou: I don't have the knees for running, let alone walking. I've got one knee that needs to be replaced now and the other isn't far off. The doctor won't do it at my weight and quite honestly... I…

@felinlove ~ Sorry you weren't feeling well, but sounds like you had a great day in spite of it. :flowerforyou: @grandmakay44 ~ Saturday Success? Absolutely! Sounds like you were very successful burning those calories! :smile: @Lauriek70 ~ Great job with exercise! :drinker: @karenleona ~ Very Successful Saturday! :smile:…

@jtconst ~ Oh goodness! How sweet that puppy is! Hopefully he'll be feeling better soon. Enjoy him! @kah68 ~ Thanks so much for your advice on adding my exercise to MFP. I estimated the UBC as you suggested, however I was able to log into FitLinxx online and get my actual calorie count as the equipment at the hospital is…

@TOPSMarca - Thank you so much. I took your advice and opened my diary. I've been logging in everything since I got back OP this week - food wise. I have trouble logging in my exercise because I use a machine at the gym. It's called a Biodex. It's an ergometer for my arms and I just don't know how to log that one in. Also,…

Hi Everyone! It's been a few days and for some reason I just realized that you have a daily topic which you discuss. So, I'll add mine for this week today. Monday - Check In (how are you doing? Had any successes or struggles this week-end?) - I did pretty well. Better than I anticipated actually. The only thing I seem to…

Good Morning Everyone! I'm a little excited to have gotten through yesterday (first day back on plan & exercising) with little anxiety! Yay! I'm in my BIL's wedding in December. The dress came yesterday. Actually, I purchased 2 dresses - different sizes, just to make sure I got the best fitting one. Happy to report that…

Thank Robin. I'm actually under my GP's care as well as my cardiologist. He had wanted me to go to cardio rehab, but they only offered it twice a week at 11 am and well, I work. I go the the gym right next to the cardio rehap. They are both located in the hospital and I'm able to go as much as I want. I went tonight for…

Thanks Robin - My Dr actually suggested 1400 calories because of my activity level or should I say, "lack of activity level"? LOL! I give myself a little bit of room. If I remember correctly, MFP actually gives me more than 1600.

Hello Everyone! While I'm not new to MFP, I'm new to this thread. I've found I just really can't go this alone. I need someone besides my family to cheerlead for me and to pick me up when I've tripped. Someone who "gets it". I have to say that weightloss is probably the most difficult thing I've ever had to do in my life.…
