Hey Patty, and welcome. My hint is to plan you meals in advance. If you have an iphone or Android smart phone, use the My Fitness Pal app. The app has the same database for foods and really helps when you are away from you computer.

Dead man's party - Oingo Boingo. Hey....good 80's stuff.

Well, seeing how there is a steak house on every corner in Texas, I would have to say yes.

Here a spicy chicken wrap recipe of mine. Nothing real original but it is quick and easy to take for lunch. Each wrap is about 274 calories. 4 oz of grilled or broiled chicken breast 4 grape tomatoes sliced in thirds 1 TBSP of Weber Grill Creations - Kick'n Chicken Seasoning 1 half cup of shredded iceberg lettuce 1 Flatout…

Thanks! One can never have too many friends.

Well, since I have been told quite often that all men are pigs, I figure I have a pretty good chance of getting it. So, I am going to live life as I normally do. :bigsmile:

Mega Kudos!!! Awesome story and a great inspiration to all! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

God's richest blessings upon you, MG. The sign of a true servant is one who after going through hell, wakes up and is immediately more concerned about everyone else involved. In today's society, people no longer look at the character of the individual. Ethics today are based on situations and not high standards of…

Here is where I got mine. http://www.burnmytime.com/blog/2007/05/18/smoke-free-quitmeter-ticker/ :wink:

Cinnabons :love: :love: :love: Right across from my store. I get to work and smell the fresh baked ones permeate the atmosphere in the morning. All day when I go to the front door, that is the first thing I see. They give us the best mall employee discounts for coffee and cold drinks. So when I go get my coffee or bottled…

Drinking water is something I have to continually myself to do during the day. I get so busy at times I forget. I am glad to see that I am not alone in this battle. Thanks to all who have responded. Perhaps we should all band together and form "The Plateau Group". LOL

The scale is a lousy, no good, piece of electronic scrap sometimes. LOL You are right. I have lost two belt notches and think I will have to buy a smaller one soon. I am on the last notch.

Here is what I find interesting. Every guy I know and work, or hang around with, would not find that attractive. So I am not sure how that look became known as sexy. Every guy I know likes "a little shape" to their women. Oh and research done at the Univ of Texas....(God I love my school. LOL) indicates that the vast…

I try to understand both sides. I have been on a plane next to someone who is slightly in my area and it makes for an uncomfortable 3 hours in the air. Plus, from a business stand point, what does the airline do if the flight is full? Who gets left behind? Hard decision. I also know that there are many reasons people can…

Is it me or does this sound a little voyeuristic? :laugh:

Unfortunately, I work in a mall. Mall food is horrible when it comes to being healthy. So, sometimes when I don't have time to fix my lunch or dinner, I do a veggie or Turkey Subway with no cheese and honey mustard dressing. Beats pizza, greasy hamburgers and hot dogs.

No. It was stuck at 225.5 lbs. :laugh: I was going to throw it in the trash today if it didn't read something else, even if it was higher.

WOW!! Great list Corin. My daughter decided to become vegetarian a year ago and this will be valuable to her. Thanks!

And you are almost at you goal!! That is wonderful. You have good reason to pat yourself on the back. Congratulations. You have made this your lifestyle and that means permanent success.

And it is situations like this that kept me from being a police officer. :mad: :mad: :mad: The psychologist at HPD said she was afraid that if I was the arresting officer in a situation like this, (especially when it involved children), the suspect would never make it to jail. :explode: :explode: :explode: She was probably…

Setting goals can help you or they can hinder you. This is a subject I have taught in business settings. I recommend using the S.M.A.R.T goal formula. S = Specific M = Measurable A = Attainable R = Realistic T = Timely Here is a link that will help you. http://www.goal-setting-guide.com/smart-goals.html You don't need to…

Thanks to all who responded! I really appreciate the support. :smile:

This is an inspiration on my way to losing 55 lbs. :wink: CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

I am going by what looks good on me. The "charts" say I should weigh about 170. But at that weight I look sick. I look good about 180, toned. That is what I am basing my goal on.

Obvious

I say relationships are like cars. If it ain't hitting on all eight cylinders, it either needs a tune up or an overhaul. If it needs an overhaul, you have to determine if it is worth the investment to fix it, or if it is better to get a new one.
