  • I don't often eat cereal, but sometimes I just want it. I got for Special K protein plus. No idea if its all that great for you, but the nutrition label stats are good. =D
  • Thank you. I'd forgotten how many cals milk has in just one glass. I should have had one of those! :bigsmile:
  • I weigh myself every morning after I've gone to the bathroom and in whatever I've slept in, which is usually a t-shirt and underpants. I log it every day. I have a digital scale that goes to the tenths place, and I like to see the ounces coming down. I don't usually sweat the pounds until I've gone up a pound. Any gain is…
  • ROFL! My 2 year old carries around my teeny little 2lb weights. Its really cute!
  • How much protein are you looking for? What's a good amount for me may be too little for you. Scrambled eggs are quick, throw in two, mix it up in the pan, pour some Special K protein plus in a bowl with milk, stir them up again, and by the time you're half through with the cereal, they should be done. Finish the cereal,…
  • I've no idea what NSV means, but congratulations on your recovery and still sticking with the weight loss goals. That's a major funk to work through!!
  • Considering the occasion, I'd stay away from animal prints, even though that does look the best on you. IMO the best choice is #3. It doesn't make you look top heavy and its a little less provocative than #4.
  • I'd have to research it, but I've heard from several people who work out consistently that celery and carrots have a negative calorie whatever you want to call it because it takes more calories to digest them than they give. I've also heard that carrots jump start your metabolism...possibly because of the calorie thing? So…
  • The way I try to think of it is like this: If you're really heavier than you look (because of muscle) if someone tries to mess with you, they're in for a big surprise! Skinny girls look like they weigh nothing. Fit girls will weigh more and have more weight to throw behind the punch of anyone who wants to try something!
  • I went into the doc and saw that you had the hyperlink already, so I copied the numbers you already put it and deleted your name from the bottom. I also added in my numbers using my start as 150 instead of 146 because I didn't really try losing weight until I hit 150 (I was 146 on 1/02/12, and then gorged myself when my…
  • I might have to try these! I'm anemic and need the iron, so this could be a really good thing for me. Thanks for mentioning these!
  • I am so glad I found this group. My name is Shannon and I've been married to my army husband for three years this coming March. He joined the Army six months after we got married and they changed his ship date from after our daughter was born to about a week after he signed initial papers. He's been gone on various…
  • I just noticed this with my veggies. I bought some frozen ones and was like, ok a cup is going to be like 100 calories. Its not. Try like 1/4c is 45. Its awesome. I'm letting myself have 2 cups of it because its good for me and yes, filling. YAY FOR BEING FULL! I also put ONE peppermint white chocolate kiss on my snack and…
  • You have an amazing butt!! And tummy, and thighs and.... Sigh. I'll take some progress photos at the end of my 30DS. I, too, will have a butt like that, and my husband will rejoice!
  • That is amazing and makes me want to cry. You've done so well!!
  • I'm on day four. Just finished it a couple of hours ago. It SUCKS, but I love it. If you know what I mean? I've been keeping a log of how I feel and differences I've noticed in my blog on MFP. I've had absolutely no motivation to do it for two of my four days so far, and I don't really expect that to change. I will say…
  • Be patient, be diligent. As others have said, it really does take time. Keep exercising. When you're frustrated, exercise. When you're in a bad mood, exercise. When you're in a good mood, exercise. Just keep at it. I'm watching my scale go up and down every day and yet I still have not technically lost a pound. (I gained…
  • Heart Rate Monitor. Unless there's another gadget with the same acronym. ETA: Never mind. My page didn't update and I didn't get to see that the question had been answered.
