Oh! I need to start this diet!!!! I could do just blue coloured chocolate eggs diet!!! New hero!! thank you!

Yep.. Canadian.. I think there are a few Timmies in the upper states ?

I don't like NEVER getting treats. Can't stick to it if I don't now and then ( within my calories usually). but those unexpected sneaky calories are a bugger !!! Happy to hear it was good. I may have to try some this summer hehe.

chocolate egg fast is my fav. diet right before, during and after Easter :) yummy!!!

yep yep

I hare a small blizzard once or twice a summer with my teen lol I dunno how people eat all that ice cream at one time or size medium or large .. just wow! lol. How was the red velvet one? lol

LMAO.. you are too funny! 430 for a lunch isn't SOOO bad.. but when it's that small, not that great either :neutral:

oh! timbits are horrible! I don't eat those either anymore.. lol

cold of flu.. doesn't matter which one. rest and listen to your body. get lots of fluids and eat right.

715 for just one milkshake? wow.. I hope it was the yummiest milkshake ever at that "cost"

omg.. 500 cals for just one muffin oh no!!! yep.. under 5 feet here.. so a muffin is a no no for me. I have dropped them from my diet completely. They are just not worth it lol

was loads of fun with 2 kids haha.. If it would have been just hubby and I , we would have gone home to eat.. but with 2 kids wanting food, you get the food. Especially when home is 45 mins away. We hardly ever get to eat out anymore so the kids were hopeful that a boring car shopping experience would be treated with…

600 omg.. for one DRINK.. I don't drink my calories other than my one coffee in the morning.. 600 cals is half my days worth of calories! No wonder we so easily pack on the weight .. imagine those that have 2 of those a day?!? :o

I agree with this only so far. If you are attending a party and there is cake and you aren't pigging out.... eat a small piece of cake! It's yummy! But if you use the line " yolo " constantly while trying to shed the weight, just wont happen lol I do see the allure to dropping the word "cheating".. Just makes it sound like…

I can't wait for the snow to be GONE! It is going above freezing here finally!!! Still a while yet before all our snow is gone though. Excited!

2 inches shorter here.. I hear you!!! lol It adds up SO fast !

Yes!! I'm just under 5 feet.. so I hear you! 200 cals difference is HUGE for us! It was the triple triple that killed me .. I should have stuck with double double but I was uping quantity and wanted to stick with the same taste.. I thought maybe 80 cals? nope lol Fast food is the worse! we ate out for lunch this weekend…

:D That didn't work for my hubby.. I'm horrible at giving him excuses to get out of things he doesn't want to do lol. woops.

cheat day or meal doesn't mean go crazy and eat anything ... it means you did well enough during your week that you have a bit of wiggle room to eat something with slightly higher cal. and it wont offset your week. Check your math. always check your in vs your out .. if you can add another 200 cals that day and still have…

it's not "Mandatory" .. no.. as long as the math adds up. but the idea that not exercising is better than exercises is ridiculous simply because of the math.. ( outside of medical reasons). if helps to created a deficit that's all that REALLY matters, but as stated, easier to created a deficit with you are moving even just…

Hi Lisa! Welcome to MFP I'm short also at just under 5 feet :expressionless: Good luck! there are loads of tools and groups to help here. You have to do the hard work, but it's nice to have people struggling right along with you

Who are "they"? Don't listen to "they". Do the research, check the math.

lol sorry.. but honestly comes with brutal truth hehe

Especially since so many people start and stop their "new lifestyle" faster than they change their underwear :|

^^^ I like this :) It's a good way of looking at it.

I know we will get better at this, but when it something new and you really don't think it will be as much.. it's a bummer.. lol Luckily MFP makes searching relatively easy.. but ugh.. some days it doesn't work out well for us lol

Just stop .... drink more water.. it is HARD. I did it a year ago. You may have headaches.. you may feel hangry.. you may be really grumpy and feel like you have less energy. All normal. I don't drink dark soda anymore. I may have a ginger ale now and then if I can calculate it into my day. There is no EASY way to stop…

Lol.. not crazy crazy short.. but 4feet 10.5 inches.. that .5 of an inch I seem to be losing as I'm aging!! no!!! I walk into my kids grade school and grades 4 and 5 students are my high and taller :/ many 9 year olds are taller than me .. fun times lol

It's hard to stay on track some days. You can join groups on here and also use your home/status to keep all your "friends" informed and try and stay accountable that way. the group one with similar goals is always good. I wouldn't rely on only one other person to kick your behind though lol
