  • I actually just ordered a Jawbone Up and should be getting it on Monday. Very excited. I had a Fitbit but the thing just fell apart on me the other day, plus I found it a pain to hook to my clothes every day. I figure with a bracelet it will be part of my outfit, right? I haven't been actively seeking a waterproof band for…

  • I completely understand your position!!! My daughter is 2 ½ years old. I pick her up from daycare (my hubby drops her off in the mornings. She has extreme food allergies so I have to cook everything from scratch for us and take care of her in the evenings because my husband doesn’t get home until much later than I do. I am…

  • My diet has been relatively clean for the past 6 months and I have been stuck on a plateau. I am finding that the Whole 30 is good for all in my family - for my husband's MS, daughter's allergies, and my weight loss. I am tracking what I eat because when I am done I want some kind of reference of what I did. I am…

  • @EliMaks Yep - by Whole 9... I was saying that I got a lot of my recipes from Everyday Paleo. They have easy to make meals for Paleo diets, which is like the Whole 30/Whole 9 principles. I read the book, too! Great information.

  • I am starting the Whole 30 today as well! I am just trying to figure it out as I go. I found a website with a good amount of "do-able" recipes for Paleo (where this program was based) called Everyday Paleo. I got a majority of my recipes from there for the week. Add me if you want to keep tabs on each other. I am trying to…

  • I'm 5'10" with ideally 28 more pounds to go (down over 87lbs currently)! Losing weight when you are tall is so much different, and I am always so hard on myself when someone loses 5 pounds and looks completely different, meanwhile I can gain and lose 5 pounds in a day! Love this site, it works, and you meet great people…

  • I am just starting to really get involved here (although been tracking with MFP for a long time now), and am 5'10". Goal weight between 155-165lbs. Glad there are some tall ones out there! I started at 240 and am down to 196 where I keep fluctuating. You are ambitious! I would say, get in the healthy BMI range and then…
