Congrats on the weight loss!!! You'll be able to get the last 8 pounds off in no time. Keep up the great work.:happy:

Make an appointment and go to your doctor. There are an assortment of pills and supplements that may do you more harm than good if you don't know what the actual problem is.

I agree with ebkins7 with the strength training but if you don't know what you are doing it's best to get a certified trainer or you may injure yourself if you don't have the correct form.

Your welcome. Glad I could help. You can add me as a friend if you want and I can help encourage you along the way. You Can Do It!!!

Hello and welcome to MFP. One thing I would suggest is to not look at this as dieting but a lifestyle change. The word "diet" often makes people turn to drastic measures of exercising or turniing to some fad diet program which results in a person giving up in no time. Just do small changes at a time to your food choices…

Congrats on the weight loss. I can really see the difference in your face and arms. Your right it may not be easy but it's so worth it and good job on realizing it should be about a lifestyle change and that there are no quick fixes. I wish you continued success with the remainder of your weight loss.

Congrats on the weight loss. Every pound lost is great so celebrate each and everyone.

Not sure if you should count this as a calorie burn since it's something you do regularly. I personally only count additional exercise and not stuff I do on a daily basis. If you want to know how much you've burned the best thing to do is get a heart rate monitor which will give you a more accurate amount.

Congrats on getting to more than 1/2 way to your goal. I am also cooking a lot more and really enjoying a variety of vegetables that I didn't have very often before I started MFP. I wish you continued success in your weight loss journey

Hello and welcome to MFP!! I've been a vegetarian for a few months now and enjoying it. Usually I have cooked cereal in the morning such as slow cooked oatmeal, kamut flakes, brown rice cereal or steel cut oats which I cook in water and almond or brown rice milk(I don't like soy). I like to add cloves, cinnamon or nutmeg…

I'm still reprograming- I'm used to people looking at me and quickly looking away. Not staring or smiling or both... It's actually kind of creepy.. Girl let them look cause you look great....as long as they don't touch it's all good!!!! Slow and steady definately wins the race. It's hard work but I think when people look…

First thing in the morning on an empty stomache is the best time to weigh yourself, preferably after you pee. The reason the scale changes later on in the day is because you ate and that food is still in your body. You should try to keep it to no more than once a week on the same day. If you weigh yourself everyday you…

Wow!!! Fantastic job. You look fabulous. Glad you are able to keep the skirt because it's very pretty.

I use a brand called Now Instant Energy B-12. There are 75 individual packets in the box. This one is great for vegetarians (you don't have to be a vegetarian to take it) and contains no artificial colours or flavours. You can get it at health food stores

Thank you very much for sharing your secret with us. I really enjoyed your posts and you were so right about exercise and how people will give up if they are doing something they don't like just because they want to burn calories. Exercise is so much more fun when you do something you enjoy. I am now looking back at what I…

Hello everyone: Okay here are 2 post that I think you all should read if the scale is getting to you. The first is by chanstriste13 and it's got to be the funniest take on the love/hate relationship most (if not all) of us have with the scale.You may even want to print it out and keep it close to your scale to read before…

Great job!!! I can definately see the difference in your face from the before and after. Keep up the good work. :smile:

Click on "Search" and type in "Don't judge me please" . There's lots of information about it.

Check out the site fatfreevegan.com. She has recipes under the desserts and sweets listing that probably hit all of your criteria. There are a lot more recipes listed under her blog.

You think peanut butter is addictive just try almond or better yet cashew butter now that ones addictive. I buy a little cashew butter at a time (cause I can't be trusted with an entire jar) at a bulk store and their are no additives or preservatives.
