I have been on and off of MyFitnessPal a couple times as well. Over the past year or more i adopted some bad habits which resulted in weight gain (shocked how much when i hopped on the scale) This time around I have changed habits, have a new diet, which I am actually so happy with. I have lots some weight, and not feeling…

Hi everyone. I used MyFitnessPal several years ago (and loved it but stupidly stopped) I still had the ap and just the other week started logging in again. They have made a lot of updates in that time so i think i have to relearn how to use it. Anyways I was down to a weight I was happy with but had an extremely stressful…

Missemily -- thank you I will give that a try wpgjim-- thanks as well but that way of measuring wont do for me as I wear my pants on my hips.

One of my friends use to eat peanut butter and dill pickle sandwiches -- eww! But she loved them

Yea, it all depends on where you live and whats in season. Where I am I usually find pears, apples and oranges the cheapest through out the year the others vary depending on whats in season

I still drink about one night a week. But, I still try to log everything and still keep my calories under my target. If I know I am going to have a big not drinking I try to burn extra calories that day to balance it out

Hey, Its always hardest in the start to get use to a new routine. But, stick with it - it will be worth it

Hey, I dont have a gym membership either but there are tons of free things you can do to burn up those calories. Most of my exercise in the weeks I get from hiking or bike rides. I have also now started doing some jogging as well and I try to do sit ups and crunches a few times a week. All of it is free! I have found this…

Awesome thanks for all the recipes! I need to pick up some ingredients for them later this week but will be sure to try them asap

I use pumpkin is veggie stir frys a lot. Just chop it up in cubes and cook it in a bit of oil with whatever mixture of other veg you have around and add in some spices. I usually serve it over brown rice. Also, I sometimes cheat and as pumpkin takes awhile to cook i will microwave it a bit first so its a bit quicker

Congrats! You look fab

I think once you start losing a little and see how rewarding that feeling is that will be encouragement enough (most of the time) Also, with emotional eating it stems from psychological reasons not hunger. People over eat to supress or avoid their emotions. You should keep track and be aware of times that make you over eat…

at the moment my fave lyrics come from a weakerthans song; "I know you might roll your eyes at this but, I'm so glad that you exist." reminds me of someone special thats far away and makes me smile.

I am pretty sure the internet is teasing me.... The ad banner at the top of my page is for cupcakes from a "groupon" deal :noway: Emmaroberts82 and Jaydubayu --- getting fit for a bday is always a good goal - and 30 is a biggie! (I have just under a year to my big 3-0) Emmaroberts82 - I feel bad for what happened to you…

Hey everyone-- thanks for the replies. and Lisa, if you look under foods where you can track your meals I think there might be some suggestions under there. You can check all the calories, fats and all that other scary stuff under foods when you track your meals
