  • Cut the pomegranite into quarters and soak the quarters in a bowl of cold water for 20 minutes. This makes that tough outer shell a little bit more pliable. Peel back the outer shell over the bowl of water, the membrane should easily separate and float in the water if you drop it in. Then, discard the shell and membrane…
  • 2 places I would never think to look for cute cheap work out clothes but always find great stuff are Old Navy or The Gap. Old Navy always has cheap workout stuff that's ADORABLE, and if you root around in the sale section of The Gap, you can always find their favorite T, which fits snug and girlie, for about $7 in basic…
  • I'll be shopping for a copy this weekend....
  • I was the same way with my now fiance every time we were together. We collectively gained almost 70 lbs after our first year of dating. We called them "happy pounds". They're pounds you put on when you are happily dating someone and indulging because you aren't noticing anything but the other person. We're now hurriedly…
  • I check in on my Wii Fit Plus every morning! :)
  • jlhammerstein :heart:
  • I have this same problem. How annoying, right? When I'm at work, I am on a schedule, I'm good to go. As soon as I open my eyes on Saturday morning, the first thing that comes to mind is CUPCAKE or ITALIAN HERO!!!!!! And it's all downhill from there.
  • Hi there! Welcome! Good luck with your journey, this site is so helpful, you will love it!! :flowerforyou:
  • You should look in to Community Supported Agriculture. You basically buy "stock" in a local farm, and they give you a portion of their crops each season, you go and pick it up every couple of weeks (fresh, seasonal fruits and veggies, YUMBY!). It's usually about enough for a family of 4, so if you go in on it with another…
  • Does anyone have any good pointers for staying on track on the weekends? I find that once 5:00 p.m. on Friday hits, all of my goals go out the window, and I find myself eating (still healthily, but still....) anything I want!!!!!! Please help! :explode:
  • Soooo..... When I started my weight loss journey, I weighed in at 156 lbs at 5'2". And it was all in my tummers. I'm one of the lucky women with an hourglass figure, almost text book. So when I gain weight, I gain it in my smallest section - "Get in my BELLY!" Quite literally. Today I stepped on the scale to see 145.6 lbs.…
  • Almost every day I go over on my suggested protein amount. Yesterday, I had egg whites for breakfast, some soy nuggets for lunch and a piece of tilapia for dinner, and I went 11 g over on my suggested protein amount!!! Is this a bad thing? Should I not be paying attention to this number? Any input would be appreciated.…

  • Start weight: 150 Today's weight: 147.8 I've been drinking an average of 9 cups of water a day. :drinker: I also tried pilates last night. My abs are screaming, but I know that my boyfriend will be screaming about how great my abs look in my bikini 3 months from now! :love:
  • Also, I'm doing pilates tonight with a new instructor, and I have 647 calories left for my dinner/nighttime snack. I'm on my 6th cup of water for the day, too. (1.419 529 419 liter) lol :glasses:
  • Hey, ok I cheated and used a conversion website, but I found out that 8 cups is ALMOST 2 liters (8 cup [US] = 1.892 705 892 liter) The site is www.onlineconversion.com and it converts ANYTHING! LOVE IT! :love:

  • Doing things that you love will never seem like a chore. Think about some physical activities that you love to do, and plan to do them on a schedule. That will help you stick to it. Another thing that helps is to have a workout buddy, or to hire a personal trainer. At least when you know someone else is counting on you, or…

  • Part Two of the D-Bag, After the Final Rose. I hate him even more tonight than I did last night lol
  • I know, I'm shoving down my measly 1/2 cup of plain cheerios with no milk as we "speak!" Don't listen to that Thin Mint's little voice! They are the sirens of the Girl Scout cookie world! So not worth it!!! Drink a glass of water and turn the other cheek! lol:drinker:
  • You're not alone! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/43585-kind-of-new-what-about-weight-gain-after-working-out Keep up the great work, and keep coming back to these boards for support and encouragement! You're doing the right thing! :flowerforyou:
  • Totally! Keep me posted about how it's going. I want to hear all about it when that weight starts coming off! :glasses:
  • I love that, that is my new mantra! Thanks for the input!! :flowerforyou:
  • I couldn't agree with you more. I was sitting in my living room screaming at Melissa (through the TV of course ) "SMACK HIM, YOU TWIT!!!!!" The best was when my boyfriend watched the show with me, he would get up and pantomime all of the scenes where they showed Jason gazing off into the sunset, contemplating which girl he…
