THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!

I am the girl scout leader for my 6 year old's troop. We are learning about different countries and tasting their food. I need simple recipes from Switzerland, England, and India. If anyone can help I would be very grateful.:love:

thanks for the tip

Thanks I am going to try to stick to it this time.

thanks. Good luck with your mountain You can do it!:flowerforyou:

Shortly after starting MFP I hit a plateau and no matter what I did I could not get under 200. I got frustrated then angry and gained back five pounds. Today I stepped on the scale and was 198! I know I will most likely hit another before I am done, but I won't get upset and will keep doing what I should.:bigsmile:

I am so excited I lost 5 pounds in the last week. I was stuck but wanted to meet my easter goal of 8 pounds. I decided to change my attitude and be like the little engine that could. I think I can I think I can and I did. :love: :bigsmile: :tongue:

I heard drinking slows metabolism and tricks your body into holding onto fat. I like a drink at night too, but have quit after hearing this. Not real sure if it will work.:drinker:

Don't feel bad about never eating an avocado. I live in montana and had never had one until my mother in law came to help me after surgery. She was doing everything and I wanted to help she handed me an avodado and told me to peel it. I had to admit I didn't know what to do with it she still laughs 3 years later.:blushing:

:flowerforyou: MY MOM ROCKS!!! Now you can focus on what you weighed before I was born. LOL.:drinker: :blushing: :love: :flowerforyou:

I have never even heard of FAGE.

NICE, GREAT START

I am new to this, but I try to make healthier choices than I used to make and do at least 30 min of exercise every day. I started this Jan 6 and have lost 18 pounds. After I started tracking on this site I hit a plateau. I eat when I get frustrated so I gained two pounds. Now I am seriously trying. to exercise 60 min a day…

Im in for 8#

I am new too, but this site is amazing!

:flowerforyou: Thanks

I have seen members that have two tickers one for weight loss and one for miles ran, etc. How do you get the second ticker. I want to one for exercising to help motivate me.

I like the 30 day shred but I am a Jillian fan. Did you know she weighed 175 at 13 and got kicked out of kickboxing class for smuggling cheetos. read it in self. My husband even likes the shred.

This site is used by people all over the world. They have a cool community for stay home mom's with members from australia, england, and the us.

Doesn't the stress hormone cortisol cause weight gain especially in the belly? My advice is find a way to deal with the stress if possible. When you are happy it is easier to lose the weight.. I am a mom to 4 kids under 8 and run a home daycare with 6 kids 3 and under. I do 30 min on the tredmill in the morning and read…

Hello, my name is Angie 28 married 4kids. I always quit to, but this site is amazing. I am positive you will do well. I think the ticker you make under tools will be a big motivator for me.

I started yesterday,but I have heard it takes a deficit of around 3500calories to loose 1 pound. I keep reminding myself too much lost too fast is easier to put back on and is not healthy. I put my scale away and will weigh in next Monday.

I think I did this backwards. I set up my mom's account. (she works nights) Her name is Lisa. My name is Angie. She hasn't logged on yet. I want her to come home from work, call me, log on, and see she has people who are supportive enough to comment or send friend requests to her. She hasn't started a blog, but she loves…

Love to go to the hot springs

worried about my son having aspergers drink when my kids go to bed on stressful days (just one or two)
