I'm sorry you had that experience. I, too, have noticed some members that are "less than supportive." I know of some members who don't use the boards at all, but just use the diary, tools, etc. Best wishes to you.

Turn off the cell phone, make sure your breath is fresh (and nothing in your teeth), check the nose for anything crusty (lol), take a deep breath--and smile! Good luck!!!!!!!! :flowerforyou:

Mom of 4 here and 40 years young... I would rather not be called a MILF, but it not as offensive as being called a cougar. The term "cougar" is offensive to me because it implies that the woman only preys on the young guys for sex. She chews them up then spits them out, basically. That is not what I am about at all. So,…

There's tons of 100 calorie snacks out there, but here is a link to Hungry Girl's ideas for homemade 100 calorie snacks with ingredients you buy in the store. (nothing complicated at all, btw) :flowerforyou: http://www.hungry-girl.com/weighin/show/2385 The actual web page reads: We LOVE making our own 100-calorie packs, so…

MFP is set up with your calorie deficit built in. If you want to lose one pound a week, you need a 500 calorie deficit. You get that because the amount of calories your body actually needs to just maintain your current weight is most likely 1700 calories. So, MFP says ok, 1700-500=1200 and you should lose 1 pound a week.…

I would, but that's because my legs are ghost white and have scars. But to tell the truth, even if I had gorgeous legs, I probably would anyway. You could simply play it safe and wear dark slacks with some pretty trouser socks. That's what I did. I wore a black blazer, white button blouse, pink pearls, black slacks, pretty…

Balsamic vinegar! Love love love it!!!!!

:drinker: Peel and cut up and toss with flavored rice wine vinegar. Sooooo yummy!!!

My kids....always my kids :smile: My mom My siblings/other family members Close friends The guy I have a crush on....*wish* *wish* *wish* :blushing:

I love them, too! But I don't understand why you have to have someone to watch them with. Why do you have to wait for somebody else to enjoy yourself? Just watch the movies! :flowerforyou:

:flowerforyou: I remember the woman who bravely decided to change her life. ME! I cannot forget how much she wanted to be healthy and to change her life. I cannot let her down. I will not let her down. I will get there someday even if it takes forever. I'll get there. :flowerforyou:

The Subway locations in my town are quite happy to "scoop". Ask your Subway to be sure. :flowerforyou:

Roly Poly sells wraps. http://www.rolypoly.com/ Very good eats. They are mainly in the south and on the east coast. We used to have one, but it closed. :sad:

Both are great places to eat at. At Subway, ask for your sub to be "scooped". They will scoop out most of all that bread, leaving you with a bread shell and a ton less calories. Roly Poly is also good if you can find them. Ours closed down some years ago. :frown:

Crystal Light is great and they come in single serving sizes. But store brands of these are also very good. The ones at Aldi by fit n active are amazing! My kids love the lemonade and the fruit punch especially. I brought the lemonade fit n active to our 4th of July family bbq and it was a hit! Everyone loved it! :drinker:

I am going to bump this one more time just in case there are some of you who don't know about it! I hate for anyone to miss out! :bigsmile: :wink:

Hope lots of parents can take advantage of this! I know that with school supplies, clothes, and shoes..any little bit helps! :smile:

I love the teas from White Lion. They have a website or you can get them on Amazon. They make a White Ambrosia that has coconut and pineapple and it is out of this world! They also have a lavendar earl grey that is amazing! Also, the Celestial Seasonings (at any grocery store) are wonderful,too. I love the Sleepytime…

Ask them if they have it. If they don't, look up as similar as possible dishes for other restaurants. Calorie King is a website that lists foods from all over, even for generic italian, chinese, carnival, etc type places. Good luck! :flowerforyou:

bumpity bump! Thanks for sharing!! :smile:

I love Splenda, it goes in my coffee, tea, and cereal. But if you are only using a teaspoon of sugar in your coffee (16 cal) I wouldn't sweat it. :drinker:

:flowerforyou: The Activia should help hopefully. I love Fiber One bars, but they do cause gas. Kashi causes gas even worse. I think it's the chicory fiber in there. I agree with another poster about taking a stool softener. You can buy them generically. Good luck!

grilled chicken with apples instead of fries. yummy!! hold the mayo on the sandwich to save some calories. use mustard instead.

Subway is awesome if you make smart choices. The grilled chicken breast is wonderful. TIP: Ask to have your bread scooped!! They will scoop out the inner parts of the bread leaving you with a shell and a ton less calories and carbs. They post nutri info for scooped sandwiches, too! Love me some Subway!!!

I am with you on that, except it is for a guy that I see every day. :blushing:
