  • Happy for you! Don't you just love being in a store dressing room with your selections and having to put your clothes back on to go back out to the racks for a SMALLER SIZE! WooHoo, beats a candy bar any day!

  • Another way to serve tilapia is to bake or microwave it until it starts to become translucent, then drain the fluid and top with picante sauce and low fat motzarella cheese (not sure how to spell that) and just continue cooking it until the cheese melts. I like it best with hot, chunky picante sauce. Very easy and tasty.

  • Well Chrissy, You just won the MFP friend lottery! Trisha is a wonderful inspiration to many of us here on MFP. She was right on when she said you found the right site. If you need any kind of advice or encouragement, all you have to do is ask. Make as many friends as possible and snoop in their diaries for new food ideas.…

  • Isn't this a fantastic site? I've been here for five weeks now and have lost 10 lbs. Like most of us, this is not my first rodeo! But it certainly has been the easiest, funnest and most productive attempt to lose weight I have ever had. Key for me has been making friends and snooping into the food diaries and trying new…

  • I found this site a couple of months ago and told my friend about it. She was a member of WW and paying about $50 per month. She also said she liked this better and did cancel her membership. If I were you, I would cancel and put the money you save each month into a special savings account to pay for that little black…

  • Here's an idea........think about what your friend Clarissa would want you to do. Would she want you to eat badly and be sad and upset at yourself as well or would she like for you to spend this day reflecting on all the wonderful times you had together and the sweet memories you have of her. Be happy that she was a part…

  • I'm 63 and lost 6 lbs the first two weeks on this site. I think what made the difference for me was not so much watching the calories but the fact that I started really drinking the water and drastically cut my sodium intake. I did this because I have high blood pressure and I've noticed that in the last few months my feet…

  • Take out a pad and pen and list all the things in your life that you are happy about. Start (if you can) with the things we all take for granted like two arms, two legs, ten fingers, etc...... continue with your loved ones, family and friends, your church, your hobbies, your pets, etc., etc., etc. Then think about all the…

  • I love it too and you are right, it is fun. After just two days on this site, I KNEW this was the answer for me. You have to be honest because if you are not, you are hurting no one but yourself. So I posted that lunch was two snickerdoodle cookies! But that's okay! The rest of the day was healthy and I was still under my…
