Simply AMAZING!!! You are such an inspiration to us all. Great job and I am so proud of you!! I wish you continued success and I know you will ROCK at the 5K!!

HI. I'm in St. Louis, actually STL City. Welcome to MFP!!! You will love this site!!! ;-)

Remember the old saying - "You get what you pay for." I too bought one from Walmart for $27. The only accurate component was my age!!! lol. It's a good thing I don't eat back the calories burned!!! I have had a Polar on my wish list for quite some time and decided to just do it. Bought a Polar FT4 from Amazon and love it…

Yes. Be sure to double check the nutritional info on foods in the database. On occasion I have discovered that some of the info is incorrect.

subtract the amount of dietary fiber from the total carb = net carbs. If the product contains sugar alcohols, deducted that amount also as it does not affect the blood sugar level. check out atkins.com to learn more about net carbs.

I have the BL Cardio Max and love it. I don't believe it is hard on the knees. There is jumping jacks, knee raises and push ups. I had my knees replaced a few years ago and don't have any problems doing the exercises. It is a workout!!!! When you are done, though you feel great because you survived, but will think Bob has…

You don't have to eat the melba toast. During my first round, I ate it because it was part of the protocol, but this round I choose to not eat it.

For me no because no two days have been alike for me. I either didn't exercise and I'm sure I didn't maintain the same calorie count. I may have walked one day and did dvd exercises the next.

I voted - and congrats on your success!!! ;-)

Hi Jeepgal0, There is a lot of controversy regarding HCG and there are an unlimited number of people who have opinions about it. There are some who thinks it is the worst possible diet in history - and there are those that swear by it. For me, I'm in the "swear by it" category. :love: I tried HCG in December after the…

I too bought the sportline hrm from walmart for less than $30. In the beginning, I was excited about the number of calories burned. I started noticing inconsistencies with the calorie counting. Some days I would burn a large number of calories walking for an hour and on other days it would say I burned 10. I also realized…

Hey Everyone!!! What has happened to the rest of the group? I hope they come back here soon. It is kind of lonely here. I want to know how everyone is doing. Come back and check in. Tatiana, I'm still hanging around. I know I don't post often - but I do check the thread daily. I'm glad you didn't give up on your goal for…

Where is the picture?

Thanks Tatiana. It has been a challenging journey. :ohwell: You hang in there!! I know you will be successul and will reach your goal!!! :flowerforyou:

Hi LLCers!! I too have been in hibernation on this thread. I'm here everyday - just don't have much to say. @Tatiana, glad to see you are still on track. I know how we can sometimes get side-tracked. @Zano - I'm glad you are still around living low carb. I'm happy to report that I have met my valentines' day challenge. My…

I'm in for February. I haven't been able to get my miles in like I had planned, however, I will try again. Today the weather was okay and I got in 1.5 during lunch. The graph looks great. Thanks for doing that!! You are the best!!:flowerforyou:

Living low carb is fantastic. However, you must decide if you are willing to change your lifestyle. It isn't "phase" to do for a while. It is a way of life. You have to be prepared to change the way you eat. I would suggest you visit www.atkins.com to read up on low carb and see if it is something you are willing to do. I…

Hi Court, So sorry for the negativity about HCG. I agree with Grokette. I have done one round of HCG and lost 30 pounds. If anyone would bother to read the protocol they will understand the program. Please take a few moments to look at the thread Grokette listed. There you will find tons and tons of support. I'm on Phase 3…

Welcome to MFP!!! :flowerforyou: This is an awesome site you will surely enjoy and come to love. I have done part of the 30 day shred and loved it. I usually change up the dvds. Now I am doing the BL Last Chance Workout and it is awesome. Jillian is leading the workout and she is kicking my butt!!! :noway:

Got in 1.75 on lunch today. Happy walking everyone!! :flowerforyou:

I don't know. I used the oral drops. Check with your doctor.

Am I the only one thinking about football?!?!?!? I thought it had to do with Greenbay winning this weekend!! LOL I will be showing signs of football withdrawal pretty soon! :cry: I will have to pull out some old game tapes to easy the withdrawal!! LOL

My neice told me about it. Thank you Tan!! :love:

Got in another 3.5 today!! Thanks for doing the graph. It looks great!! :smile:

Hi Everyone, Today I was able to get in 3.5 miles. Yay!! :happy: Hopefully the weather will hold out and I'll be able to continue. I have a long way to go if I plan on achieving my goal for January!!

I'm a baker - so anything baked with butter and sugar!! Oh how I miss you guys!! :sad:
