Your momma's so fat she sat on a rainbow and skittles popped out!

Hey there! I enjoy meal prepping but don't do it as often as I know I should. My husband and I take turns weekly cooking. I love his weeks to cook, I can come home from work and just take my dog for a walk and then eat and relax. When it is my week, I struggle to feel like I am not taking care of my family because I still…

I put it on my face before bed and it has helped a lot with my adult acne. I still get breakouts but not as much as before and they dry out really quick if I do get them. My face was horrible before and now it is just okay. I wish I could stop breaking out already. I am 30 freaking years old...

A vacation away is a great reward but hard for me to really do that. I have 2 kids and my husband is getting out of the military pretty soon so we are saving as much money as we can. And I have family visiting us this summer so I am saving my vacation time for that. Oh- I can make it a goal to lose x amount of weight by…

I was in 7th grade and these 8th grade girls who rode the same bus would call me Big Bird. I am tall and I have a big nose. It didn't help that my favorite sweater was a bright yellow fuzzy Old Navy one. I would be stuck on the bus with these older girls laughing and making fun of me really loud for all to hear. Nobody…

Hello So Cal friends. It doesn't look like there is much activity in this group but wanted to join and offer support. I live in Ventura County. I have been actively on MFP since summer of 2013. I have lost 20 pounds and struggling with the last 10 or so.

I had to giggle a little at this. I'm not making fun. I think it is a great quote and it means something special to you. I think that is really great. But to get a tattoo saying that nothing is permanent makes me smile because the tattoo itself is permanent. Anyway, I am lame and I don't really give myself milestone…

Sounds great!

Congrats on the progress you are making. Just keep at it. And I am glad you didn't listen to your head with taking pills or anything else unhealthy. Logging my food and walking are my two things I do as well. I started last summer and I lost 20lbs fast. Then winter came around (I live in So Cal so no excuse for not going…

Bribery... some people might not agree but an incentive to work towards a goal isn't a terrible idea. Money, a new video game, the new shoes all the kids are wearing. OR... Take something away until his grades are up. Oh- I'm sorry, you want to watch tv? Too bad- go in your room and study. Take his door off, no privacy...…

Have a beer... enjoy it. Try to get in some exercise before though. Either split the burger and fries with a friend OR make a couple swaportunities. Veggies and a burger OR a grilled chicken sandwich (with mayo and yummy stuff) and some fries. Just a couple swaps to help will add up to a lot. You can tell your buddies what…

Great story. You can do this. Don't dwell on the past 3 years. Just stay focused on the future. You can add me. I am on every day. :drinker:

I don't have any advice for you on your interview but good luck. One thing I will mention is do not let another child hold a baby/toddler. The first time I ever dropped my oldest off (she was between 1 and 2) I checked back in through the window to peek on her and make sure she was doing okay. A 5 year old picked my kid up…

Totally depends on the child. My now 10 year old would be alone for short trips to the store or for me to walk the dog around the block (if she didn't want to come with) when she was about 8. It was never more than 10-15 minutes. When she was 9, I let her babysit her 1 year old sister for 30 minutes while I went to the…

I also don't care. I just wear them with pride. :drinker:

YUM! Thanks for sharing. I will have to try this.

I use it on my face for acne. It helps tremendously. I have pretty bad acne on my face and this keeps me almost clear. Now I wish I could get it to clear up my scars! It stinks but I use a cotton ball and put it on after I wash my face before bed. I am used to the smell mostly now and in the morning I just wash it off…

I just turned 30 (end of December) and I am so happy. I had my first daughter and got married at 19. I felt too young during parent/teacher conferences. Now that I am 30- I feel like I belong better. I am still married (going on 11 years) we bought our home 5 years ago and my career is going well. My husband will be…

I didn't read every response but out of the ones that I did- yours was my favorite. It actually made me tear up a bit. :cry:

Mint.com is an awesome website for setting up budgets and saving goals. It is 100% free and secure. I discovered it in November and used it to help with Christmas and I have set new goals now that the holidays are over.

I want your hair!

You can do this. Children are a great motivator. And a great walking companion.

I snuck into this group too. I just turned 30 on 12/26 so only 5 days before 2014 started. :happy: Starting Weight: 197 lb Current Weight: 173.5lb Goal Weight: 169 UGW: 160 Height: 5'11" I love this group idea. I know I don't exactly fit the qualifications but having some buddies the same age and in similar places in their…

Frst off- Congrats. I love this post. Just wanted to share when I was propsed to. I was super young, 18, when I got engaged. One day I made a really cute picnic with heart shaped sandwiches and cookies and sparkling cider. I took my boyfriend to this abandoned old outside theater in a wooded area. Brought a blanket and my…

Hi moms! I am 29. My children (both girls) are 10 and 2. I work full time which makes exercise difficult sometimes but I will usually walk with my toddler to the after school program to get my oldest. It is nice to get out. It took me a couple weeks to really start enjoying my walks and now I feel grumpy if I skip a day. I…

Me! I have stuff to do but don't want to do it right now so it is pretty boring. Counting down the minutes until lunch. Only 45 more if I can convince my group to go a little early. Gonne go for a walk to the local grocery store and grab something to eat. I have an insanely busy day tomorrow. I would much rather be out of…

For a low cal snack to curb a sweet tooth I would recommend a popsicle, lollipop or a no sugar fudgesicle. Or you can ever freeze a yogurt tube and have that. 100 calorie snack packs are great too because it is easy to not over indulge if you limit yourself to just one. Otherwise everyone else had great recomendations.…

We have lasagna every year for Thanksgiving. Yum! Except this year because my sister will be with her in-laws so I offered to do a traditional dinner at my house. Something different.
