Vodka and Ting (grapefruit soda I discovered on St. Maarten earlier this summer.) Also I love Proseco (Italian champagne). It's less expensive than real Champagne and tastes better in my opinion.

I'm Cypress/JV area. Please feel free to add me. Also, anyone know of a good crossfit in our area?? I want to try it, but am apprehensive because I'm 61.

I recently started 100 Days of Real Food. I switched to plain yogurt, as they recommended, but I cannot stand the taste (Greek or regular). I made the granola recipe in the book and I add that, plus honey, but I think I add so much honey that I defeat the purpose of eating clean!!! Any suggestions??

I'm in Northwest Houston and don't belong to any gym. But I would be very interested in joining you for weekend walks/hikes, as long as it doesn't interfere with my Saturday morning Pilates class!! LOL

I just got the program and am hoping it will help my portion control issues. While I do exercise 4 times a week, I think the extra workouts should be a great help, too. Congrats on your success!!

Born in Missouri... Coke for any soft drink. Subs Lightning Bugs I have slept on many a pallet at my grandmother's house when I was much younger!!!

skinnytaste is my fav

I was picking up lunch in the little deli in our building and the lady behind the counter asked me when was I due???? I was mortified with co-workers standing in line with me.

I have the FitBit Zip and absolutely love it!!!!

White Chocolate Raspberry!!!!:smile:

LOVE QUEST BARS!!!!!!! I use them as a snack and sometimes on my "fasting" day I will use one for a meal. I haven't tried every flavor, but really love the ones I have tried.

I turned 60 on New Year's Eve. Feel free to friend me.

Houston!!!! Sandwiched in that tiny area between Jersey Village and Cypress!! Born in Missouri but got here as fast as I could!!

I was a guest at my friend's house for Thanksgiving. I brought a huge salad, which they always request. At dinner I had 2 slices of turkey, brussel sprouts, green beans and a tiny bit of stuffing/dressing. No desserts, but sweets are never my problem. Only bad was the couple of glasses of Proseco. I turned down bringing…

BUMP!! I can't wait to try this!! I am definitely a savory breakfast gal. No sweets!!!

Fitbit Zip and I ADORE it!!!!!!!!

I bought a Fitbit Zip late last year because I was curious how many steps I was taking and several people assured me that the Zip was idiot proof. They were correct and I now LOVE my little Fitbit Zip. I do 10,000 or more steps Monday-Friday, but not so good on the weekends. However, we have starting a Walking Challenge at…

Allrecipes.com has the nutritional breakdown.

Hotter than Hell Houston!! Triggers are Doritos, or HEB version. And anything Tex-Mex.

Went to the eye doctor yesterday (I know the doc from Pilates class), but had not seen her since the beginning of the year. She went on and on about how great I looked and wanted to know how much weight I had lost. Funny thing is that I have lost very little amount of weight but have lost quite a few inches!!!! Especially…

What everyone is saying is true. It is the combo of eating and exercise. What has helped me the most has been core strengthening. I have been doing Pilates for almost 2 years and have done more to wittle away what I call my menopause hump. But anything that targets your core will help.

I like peanut butter supreme, chocolate peanut butter and coconut cashew.

I copied the recipe. Sounds fantastic!!!! I think I will make it on the weekend and use leftovers for lunch the following week. I try not to eat carbs at night.

Love Zumba!!!!! It is more fun in a class, but at home will work for you, too!!!

I have been taking flamenco classes for 7.5 years. My original photo was from a flamenco recital, but I changed it to a pic when I was in Madrid, seeing lots of flamenco shows!!!!!!!

Thanks for the great tips!!! And congratulations on your success!!

Mee, too. But I don't buy many new beacause I can't seem to find any workout clothes that fit the way I want them to. I am sooooo not ready for the skin tight mold to your body tops. And everything is a tank/sleeveless. Not for me!!!!

Excellent!!!!

I got my FitBit Zip last fall and I LOVE IT!!!!! It has pushed me to do 10,000 steps or more per day. I love that it syncs with MFP. I just love everything about it!!! I bought one for my BFF and she loves it now.

In Houston we also have Perfect Fit Meals that are sold in select Kroger stores. It's fresh food, like My Fit Foods, but I think it's better and a little cheaper. It also keeps for several days, but you can freeze it. I freeze mine all the time. I really like them for bringing for lunch and when I get home late, it's very…
