Can you tell me how you record them in the excercise area? I can not seem to find them :embarassed:

I had an old tv that worked but was really small I set it up infront of the machine( i have an elliptical) and now I watch something while I am working out... best/worst part is that I make myself increase the rpm for every commercial and keep it going till the show comes on so it is like interval training. I have had…

Bran Crispbread - it is awesome! I love it plus it helps with fibre intake

As far as alcohol goes - try vodka and iced tea - bring your own nestea or crystal lite - kinda like a long island and vodka does not have too too many calories!

I have a coworker who does the opposite, she makes a big deal about it all the time which frustrates me even more.... shut up! This is not about you it is about me. I mind my own business why can't others mind their own business.\\ Even though she means it as a compliment because she says it so often it has no value to me…

For the girl who asked about the swimming cap for chlorine here is what my hair stylist said to do, wet my hair and then put on the cap when going swimming - she said that if your hair is already wet it helps the follicles in your hair to resist the chlorine because they are already full. I took it one step further when I…

I use quick oats add my fruit, water and microwave for apron 2 min. Instead of sweetener I add a scoop of protein powder so that I get a little extra protein as well with the oatmeal helps to keep me full longer. I have never liked oatmeal but now I love it!

Feel free to add me if you would like - I have to admit that I have become addicted to MFP and for the first time in my life losing weight and eating properly does not stress me out..... my new best friends are food scale, hiking boots and the gym. Give yourself time to get used to it and evenctually you will find that you…

I have jello (lite) only 10 calories per serving or a Jello pudding cup no sugar added and it has only 90 calories - works for me gives me that little bit of sweetness that helps me continue on my journey JB

430 calories....LOL I just at three whoppers for over 1100 calories... had a really stressful day! Going exercise my *kitten* off tomorrow to make up for it! Tomorrow is a new day - just don't do it all the time - that is my philosphy!

I have used the protein powder from u weight loss - there is no after taste and you can even drink it with the powder and just water....kinda boring but in a pinch it will work

You Look awesome! You can see the change in your face! Keep working at it! As for the water retention - I just drink more water

Maybe she does not have the courage to do what you are doing! I don't know about the rest of you but changing your life takes a lot of courage. I have always been overweight and a foodie! Yes I love my food, especially sweets and chips. My husband is a big man 6' 250lbs. I used to think it was ok for me to be larger…

For me it is motivating to see a work out appear on my log everyday.... so even if I run the stairs in my house for 15 min I log it (as a work out not just climbing the stairs) I did not have time for a full work out the other night, knowing that I would be on the road the following day and would not get a chance to do…

You look fabulous! Keep up the good work and yes it is very obvious in your face!

coconut water - sweet taste few calories and 100% efficient for after workout to replace lost electolytes

I find that when things in my life get out of control this is the one thing that I can control . For me it is a challenge just to make sure that I stay within my calorie range. For me this has become addicting, I do find it very frustrating when I have done everything right and the scale does not agree but I guess that is…

Make yourself a protein shake, that way you will be satisfied though out the night and it brings you closer to your calorie count.

Please don't compromise your mental well being for a little bit of weight, I know people who have been suffering from depression for years and also take zoloft. If the medication is working for you don't change that, what I would suggest that perhaps you keep in mind that muscle weighs more that fat, if you are feeling a…

I am a shift worker, we work 12 hour days and nights, by the time I am actually done work and what I have to do at home I am up 15-18 hours. What I have done for those days is just have my day run from 12midnight to 12 midnight - I don't find it so hard then because as long as I consume the correct number of calories…

You look amazing, you can really see the difference in just one month... imagine the difference you will see in six months! Keep up the good work
