My god! The poor man has been fighting this allegation for 10 years. Perhaps he is just DONE fighting over something so trivial in comparison to his and other's fight for cancer.

That is AWESOME!!!

I grew up in Wisconsin so I LOVE cheese and won't give it up completely. But, I won't buy the crap that they sell in the grocery store either. I actually go to a cheese shop (when I go back to WI to visit family) and try the cheese and ask for the nutrient values of them. I have found some great, naturally low fat cheese…

I also feel your pain! I have two pups and walk them everyday but I would like to do more. We have some walking trails around my area that are out in the country and and, although that have lots of people who use them, they are not "overcrowed" by any means. Sometimes I will take the dogs on a walk out there, put my head…

OMG! This is AWESOME! Thank you!

The first week I was on MFP, I decided to just eat like normal and see what it looked like. I was SHOCKED at how many calories I would eat in one meal (like a whole days worth now) and how much SODIUM was in my diet. I just didn't know. But know that MFP has made it easy for me to see, I will never go back to eating like…

You are doing great! Don't be discouraged. We have all had weeks where the scale shows us nothing. But our bodies and funny things. When we start changing how we eat, move and interact, the body does what ever it needs to protect itself. Once it figures out, hey this is our new life, it starts to release all that excess it…

Althought I don't travel regularly, as you do, on my last vacation I took along my 30DS DVD and did that in my room. You may also want to come up with your own circuit training program using resistance bands (very easy to travel with). Might not be as intense as your gym workout, but it would get you moving.

I love them both and have had success with both. Why not mix it up and change between the two of them!

I hate to say this, but this is how I intake my alcohol these days. I order a Vodka/Water and squirt a little Mio in there to add the flavor. A yummy way to get a fruity drink when I want to drink. I occasionally use it in water too, but I love water so I don't have a problem drinking enough of it.

OMG! I used to belong to the YMCA in our area and we had a guy just like that. He would stare all of the time at all of the girls. After a while he would come over and just start a conversation with them. Usually most would just be polite and give one or two word answers back. Eventually, he made his way to me. I did the…

I have a similar problem. Lots of catered lunches and dinners, someone is bring in doughnuts or cookies everyday. Everyone has Chocolate bars on their desks and I sit ALL DAY and work LONG HOURS! Here is what I did. First, I made the decision that I was going to do this for me and I had to respect that. If I can't respect…

I started with the 30DS. It was good for me. I never did any upper body workouts before so I saw a dramatic difference in my upper body when I was done. It does also work the legs, if you find that it is too much of a leg workout, perhaps you modify those exercises until you are done with your running program. Since them I…

Good For You! All of your hard work is paying off! Nicely done

30 DS would be easy to do in a hotel room (Heck when I went on vacation, I took it with me and did it) And if you are a starter, this might be a good place to start. It's fairly cheap (around 8 or 9 bucks in the stores) and it packs a punch! I agree with others that it does get boring after a while, so you may want to look…

I am in my 40's and it is not easy. Do it now, it only gets harder :) But it is DO-ABLE! Feel free to friend me if you wish, and good luck on this weight loss journey!

Bump! I am a salsa junkie too. Here is the recipie that I got from an MFPer a few months back. I have used it and LOVE it). Boil: 3 large tomatoes, 2 serrano peppers, 1 jalapeno pepper for 20 min (or when skin starts coming off tomatoes) Chop: 1 small yellow onion and cilantro and put in blender Add boiled tomatoes and…

Sounds yummy! Thanks for the recipie. I will definately try this!

That is great! You should be very proud of yourself. Wow, down 117 is amazing!!!!

That is great! You should be very proud of yourself!

I have made them and they are AWESOME! I also have taking the same recipie, rolled them out a bit thinner (like paper thin) and threw them on a cookie sheet and baked them at 350 for 6 mins, then flip them and back another 6 mins and used this as Nachos. VERY GOOD! By the way, I don't put in the salt and they taste just…

this is awesome. Do you know how many cals it is? I can't wait to make these

When I finished the 30 DS I went right into the Ripped in 30. And you are right, the planks are killers. But I was surprised, I just kept at them pretty soon I was ok with them. Because I knew that the planks were my weakness, I would do the plank pose and hold it for 60 seconds (or as long as I could) in the morning and…

I just ordered Turbo Fire. Suppose to be coming in the mail on Friday. I can't wait to start it.

I love it. Did it alot in the begining and now still incorporate it in with other exercise. I found it to be fun and a great workout. I would leave my class all sweaty and tired! You should try it, if you don't like it, it's only an hour of your life.

I spent a morning digging out deep rooted volunteer trees last week. I was sweaty and soaked from head to toe when I was done. I just did a web search on how many calories I burn while digging up trees. It was out there somewhere. I was able to plug in my weight and the time that I did it and it gave me a number. I can't…

I love home made chicken soup from scratch. You are right, it is a lot of work, but well worth it. About 2 x a year I will spend a day making homemade soups and broth, make 2 or 3 types of soup with it. I portion them out into individual servings and freeze them. A super yummy quick lunch during the work week!
