I miss wine so much. I have been back counting calories for 2 weeks and have had to give up beer wine and my favorite whiskey. I tried to drink vodka soda's a few times and it tasted so nasty I think I would rather not drink at all.

Hi Ladies, Its been so busy at work the last few days that Ive had no time to log onto myfitnesspal to look busy. HA! As the heat of the day cranks up (89 right now), my outdoor bootcamp is less and less fun. Trying to pep talk myself that its not so bad but Im the biggest at camp and would DIE of embarassment if I pass…

I dont have much to whine about this wednesday. I had such a great time on the mountain and all the food we ate was really good/fresh/vegan meals. This weeks goal is to get my mind right so I can start really utilizing my diary again. I have been blocking counting calories and I know its the only way to lose weight.…

This sounds AWESOME!

I have a similiar situation. Me and my friends are all single and we tend to eat out a lot. For instance, last night I had a black and blue burger. I got mixed veggies instead of fries. I had a whole wheat bun and then I only ate half of the burger. It already had blue cheese so I did not add may or mustard. It was very…

Part of loving ourselves is establishing and then honoring our boundaries. Say what you mean without judgment on her and it wil be exactly the right thing to say. Make sure you keep language to reflect what your needs are and not how you are reacting to her actions.

Do you have community gardens available in your area? Also, I buy the best and CHEAPEST vegetables right from my local farmers at the farmers market. Many farmer's markets now take food stamps but even outside of that vegetables are so cheap when you buy them direct. I can spen $5-10 dollars on a ton of food. Also, many…

Hi everyone! back from the mountains. Trying to catch up on all of your posts so I may be an overposter this moring.

Anywho - I lost 3.5 lbs as of my last weigh-in (friday). Woo hoo! I'm at 213.. if I can hold close to that (or less preferably) for the next week until school is out then I should be pretty set to hit ONEderland in no time this summer :bigsmile: [/quote] That is awesome news!

Good Morning Ladies! Had a fabulous morning at my bootcamp. 61 burpees in 12 min. It was supposed to be at least 100 but oh well. Then the remaining session was amazeballs yoga. I am off to camp in the mountains and there is no electricity or phone reception so I will be disconnected off the grid until monday night. All of…

I got so caught up in my motivation that I forgot my inspiration. It's my mom. She also gained a TON of weight however last year she started Couch2 5K and has lost a ton of weight. She's super tiny. It just fell off her. She never even ran prior to starting the program. I made her join MFP. Her name is tinahaney if you…

This is so superficial but the only thing keeping me motivated is that I have been single for a year and half. I have NEVER been single that long and I do not want to end up a giant old cat lady. It's so disturbing to go from always receiving attention to not even being a blip on anyones radar. Am I the only one motivated…

@mds - You have to take care of YOU! If this walking relationship isn't working then you need to say something to her - Tell her you want to train for a 5k and need to ht it a bit harder...or that you want to start walking so talking is difficult and have to pick up the pace... I totally agree! It's important to keep…

That is WONDERFUL!

Better late than never. My name is Tess and I'm in my 30s. I have always been volumptious and curvy but over the last three years I have gained 60lbs which makes me OBESE! Uhg! I started MFP because my bestie Leigh and I needed emotional support. When I started I did awesome and lost 23 lbs. Sadly, I have gained 17 of them…

Sorry gals, I've been out of town for easter. I should have checked in but I have been so bad this week.

When I don't count calories and know exactly how much im eating versus what i'm burning off, it always ends in disaster. I eat great but I am awful at guesstimating portion sizes. Even when I think Im going small, im over.

I used to take it all the time in my 20s with about three cups of coffee. It got me through a year of working full time, going to school full time, waiting tables part-time on the weekends and having a very active social life. I lost interest in speeding all the time so I stopped taking it. Occasionally, when I take…

I pay $300 for every 12 sessions. She also does a supplemental 8 week Yoga Bootcamp for an extra $150.

I agree!!!!

I love ciruit training. I go on crossfit websites and make up my own circuit training a lot of times.

My gym is next door to a Bagel Shop/Deli and when I work out in the mornings, the entire gym smells like fresh bagels. Sometimes, after a grueling workout, I would walk right next door and grab a toasted everything bagel with veggie cream cheese. I love my gym but I ended up getting a second membership to another gym for…

Why cant you eat salsa with scrambled eggs? Thats what i put on my eggs almost every morning.

Fiber one bars and apples do it for me
