I have it and use the yoga on it every morning as a warm up/wake up. I gave up soda so I had to find something to wake me up. I am also looking at getting the Zumba game with the belt.

Please, please, please, please. okay, I lost the quote somewhere, but Cowboy hat......Please!

I prefer to shop at a Fry's when it comes to fresh fruit and veggies. As for a restaurant, I really don't know a good healthy option. I would recommend trying a Mimi's Cafe they do have a few different salad options and a wide menu selection that makes it easy to please everyone at the table.

Feel free to add me. My goal is to be able to run a 5k by november while pushing a stroller (not concerned about speed so much as distance). I am on every day and log everything that passes my lips. Still trying to work out how much I want to lose. I am 5'3" and 180. According to guidelines I should lose about 50lbs. Not…

Hi, feel free to add me. I agree that the more people to help keep you on track and motivated to continue the more likely you are to succeed.

Request sent. I am a mother to two young children ages 21 months and 9 months. While I my partner and I are still together I feel like most days I am a single mother. Jason (partner) and my father (who is also living with us at this time) have started a business and most days they are up at 5am and gone till 9 or even…

I joined back in Feb. but quickly lost motivation due to chasing after my two children and going to school full time as well as taking care of the house. School is out and it is time to form the healthy habits that I want to take back with me into the next term. Feel free to add me as a friend. My primary goal this summer…

As a reciently former Mt. Dew aholoic I drink lots of water. I average 10-12 glasses a day. I stop noting on mfp around 9 and will drink anywhere from 2-4 glasses between then and bed. I wake up every morning with my tounge stuck to the roof of my mouth and scrambling for a glass of water. I am hoping that it changes soon…

I love it! This has been my concern as well, I had stretch marks before my first child and while I escaped the first pregnancy without adding any additional stretch marks, durring my second pregnancy I was not so lucky. They look like they all stem from my first c-section scar. When my son was born my doctor joked he was…

Thank you for the support. I chase back and forth between children all day long, the 9 mo old is not quite mobile yet and the 21 mo old is mobile and quickly getting into anything and everything. It is not a matter of moving. I kept track of how long I sit/on computer/tv/on the floor with the little man, ect for two weeks…

I always take my small children when I go for a walk which means I only walk around the nearby college campus which has off duty police officers for security that patrol regularly. I typically see 2-3 patrols go by when out walking. They also have the security poles every quarter mile or so with alarm buttons. I carry a…

I hope this time around I do see some shrinkage. In the past I have not lost anything and stayed a DD. At my current weight they look like they belong on the same frame 50 lbs lighter I look like I am going to fall over. Here to dreaming, though I don't really expect a change.

That is almost where I am at. I manage to get some carbs in but I am almost always short on the carbs and I am losing weight. I was raised on a farm where you had protein with every meal. I was a decient weight until I moved out on my own and learned that mac and cheese for example is less expensive than protein. Now I am…

I have a seven month old and a 19 month old. feel free to friend me

You can take a look at mine. I have been doing Wii fit. I bought the board and game for $48.00 used at a Game Stop. I want to get a Gym membership but that is still a few weeks away. I need to prove to myself that I will really exercise every day before I will spend money on a monthly membership. I really like the Wii fit…

I currently freak out every time I am late. I was the girl who always got her period sunday night/ monday morning on the sugar pills. Since my last pregnancy it is Saturday night, or Sunday morning when I am starting a new pack that I finally have my period. For the entire week I am a mess. I have two children 13 months…

I weigh or measure everything. Most things I do as soon as I bring it home. I have found if I don't clean my fruit and veggies when they come in the door they do not get used. So everything gets cleaned and measured then put into tupperware or plastic baggies before being put away. Even the goldfish that I buy for my…

I too have had problems eating in the morning. Before I had my children I never had breakfast and frequently did not have much or anything to eat before 2 pm. I nursed and followed the guidelines for all meals which included eating breakfast. I started with just half a slice of toast and can now eat a serving of cereal.…

I completely understand feeling sick when you eat breakfast. I would suggest starting small; a scrambled egg, half a slice of dry toast, or a granola bar. I use to have a problem eating breakfast until I had my children. I nursed and knew that I needed the extra calories to continue to do so. I started with just half a…
