I really like what you wrote! I think aiming for Thanksgiving and Xmas 5k races will keep me on pare. I don't want slower times..any progress is welcome. Goodluck!!!

Hi, I'm 6 weeks into my MSW program at the University of CT. I find maintaining balanced sleep, diet and getting excercise in, extremely difficult but I'm committed. What were your balances like?

Ladies, I am sending my deepest appologies. I've never backed out of anything before, especially sometime I'm part of organizing. But I was offered the opprotunity to hike Mt. Washington with a good group of ppl I know. I went to school in NH and never ventured that far. Now that I'm in pretty decent shape, I want to try…

I will bring homemade egg rolls (baked) with chicken, cabbage & carrots in addition to a case of water bottles. Can we establish a time?

I have relapsed into emotional eatting :( I've gained back about 5 lbs by finishing containers of either PB, granola & last night veggie chips. I do it when my boy friend is away and won't see me. It's worse when I know I hide it.

Was chatting about this the past two days actually! So excited. I'm at least bringing my other 1/2, Tommy. I'm trying to get my sisters involved too. Could we do a 11AM-2:30PM??? Alright Connecticut MFP users :) it's time to BBQ, picnic, play some field games and hike soon!!! Yes healthy & tasty options please! I'm…

Ok Food Chef's! As summer plans quickly book up, I'm in for this July 14th date! Lets start calling out ideas of food, beverages, paper goods & grills so we can start tying it together. I'll bring homemade egg rolls (broiled), oriental-marinaded chicken & our portable grill.

Congrats to all your successes along the way!

Sorry to be too blunt. But! I just had to go to the bathroom. I ate right, excercised, wasn't starving and too gained weight. I read other treads on this site about gaining weight and sometimes it fluxes. This weekend I felt terrible because I gained five lbs and looked out of shape again. But seriously I went to the…

I highly agree we want it to be delicious & healthy! I'm asking all our food chef's to bring an indexcard or printed copy of the nutrional facts for each dish. It'll be a great way to share recipes and shouldn't be difficult using MSP recipe calc. Tommy (my bf) & I are definitly in (2 adults)

Though snotty! I love this post. It has been my free weight watchers. Please don't get too witty MFP & start charging!

Hi. My biological parents and I are all lightweights so 1-3 beers for us and we're tipsy/slightly drunk. That being said we don't drink that often. I may have a drink once a weekend or so. My step father is a recovering addict, so I've seen my fair share of drugs and alcohol leading to violence, financial loss and health…

I really admire your post. I log all 4 olives I eat too. But I haven't been able to shake the guilt part of it yet. I actually feel terrible if I'm out for dinner & have gone over. Almost to a point it ruins my time out with my bf or friends. I do my best to plan ahead, look at the menu & log prior to eating. But there are…

Hello Connecticut! I'm Jacki (originally from Waterbury & currently residing in Stamford). I'm on MFP to help gain control over my stress eating, track my nutrition & as a way to find the source of my overinduldgent behavior. I need the support if I ever want to feel confident deep down again. I'm young and have no excuse…

I am on set for 1270 calories right now too! Please feel free to read my food diary. If you can't assess it I'd be more than willing to copy & paste it to ya.

Wow thank you CT for being responsive! My vote is for Saturday July 14th as well. I have a Big League Kickball & can bring it! Also I love Hiking, Swiming, 5k's and frisbee. Once the date is down I wouldn't mind coordnating the potluck signups.

I empathize with you greatly. My boyfriend is a semi professional lacross player. When we first me he used to eat taco bell three times a week and still have a six pack because he worked out at the gym so much. Now he's at Crossfit & on the Paello (no wheat or dairy and 100% natural food). He's on a stricter diet than me…

I'd really like that too! It'll hold me accountable.
