  • crystal light makes margarita and mojito flavors...just add liquor...
  • get her an exercise ball and make her sit on it while she is on the computer.. It will help her core and she may even lose pounds by just keeping her balance...
  • My doctor suggested to see one.. I did but found it hard to keeping track with protein, carbs, dairy, fruits and veggies, etc.........Where I had to watch each one... It was too hard.. MFP is so much easier.. Let me say that I did not lose any weight on the nutritionist's diet plan.....
  • You are beautiful... Congratulations on a great job!!!!!!
  • I love all your reasons but you should change the order.. Making yourself proud should be #1!!!! Keep up the good work.. You are doing this for you and no one else... That is the best reason!!!!
  • This is the best advice I have read on here.....
  • It is easy once you understand what you can or cannot have... I have celiac but must not be as bad as some people. I can occasionally "cheat" with a tiny bite. I bake my own bread and freeze it but I also have bought the ready made ones.. Udi's is a good company for gluten free products... I use the pizza crusts.. Just add…

  • Congratulations to you for having the will power to continue and succeed.... You look fantastic! And this just proves that you can do it if you set your mind to it!!!!
  • PORK....get a nice loin and cook in crock pot!!!!
  • I had no problems when I went gluten free. I was diagnosed with Ceilac disease in the hospital and immediately went gluten free.. It probably will take a couple days for all the gluten to get out of your system.
  • I have had Celiac disease for 4 1/2 years... Almost all of the gluten free products are expensive.. And depending on the recipes you use, it is expensive to make your own breads too... I have found Udi's products. About $5 each package. But they freeze so I can save them... I have a few recipes for baiking bread.. I have a…
  • You are not alone!!!! Let me give you a suggestion that a doctor friend gave me.. Sounds gross but it works. Take that bite of cake, chew it and enjoy it.. Then SPIT it out..... You still get the flavor but not the gluten in your system......I have done that many times when I wanted to enjoy the taste of something…
  • AMAZING!!!!!!!
  • Congratulations for the loss......I had that happen to me just last week.. I had lost 17 pounds and no one said a thing about it.... They are all people who need to lose weight themselves, so maybe they just didn't want to say anything because they haven't lost weight but anyway.......Keep in mind that YOU are the only one…
  • I have found it easy to eat gluten free... I know that I am not going to eat wrong things when I go out.. Like no rolls and butter, no croutons on salads, or even a sandwich....And there are alot of choices to make at home.... Oh, I do miss eating take out pizza or a good sandwich at Subway.. but I am able to make a good…
  • Udi's has a whole line of gluten free products. Check out a health food store.. You can look them up online and even order from them...Some Walmarts are getting more gluten free items.. I have tried making some things and haven't had good luck. I do with my rye bread though.....A friend told me not to use the quick rise on…
  • I love Cinnamon Chex... Chex cereals--excpet for wheat- are gluten free.. I don't want to buy alot of stuff to make gluten free mixes, etc...I also buy some frozen waffles, bagels, and of course, yogurt.....Even though store bought gluten free items are expensive, they are not as expensive as making your own. I sometimes…
  • would wax paper or paper towel work??? I don't want to buy parchment paper just to try.....
  • years ago, a man said to my husband "you can't lose 50 pounds!" he lost 60! So go for it and be what you want for your reunion and for yourself!!!!!!!
  • There used to be a show on tv called "sit and be fit". It was exercising from a chair. You may be able to find it online or maybe there are DVD's. If not, make up your own exercises from a chair... Use some weights...I use a step and make up my own movements that I remember taking classes years ago.....Anything to get you…
  • Amazing pics..... Although it's been 30 years since I had my baby, I am trying to get to my pre-baby weight.... Sounds funny....I had always kept my weight around 117 but with menopause I gained the 15 plus a few more pounds that comes with it. So now with MFP, I am getting back to my goal weight.....I put in 20 pounds as…
  • You can still have a good time and eat sensible. I choose grilled chicken and steamed veggies for dinner and then have some wine... Or get a mixed drink with diet soda... I have a friend who adds ice to her wine because she likes it cold but then it gets watered down. You could try that. Then your friends won't notice that…

  • I have celiac disease and never had the shakes when I gave up gluten. But one of my side effects is anxiousness... I do take medicines for it.. I don't know if yours is related to your condition but I would check with the doctor....
