P90X after weight loss. I lost 9% body fat that way!

That's a lot of cheese!

I also drink about 5-6 cups/ day. I had to start taking a smaller to go cup so I would drink less in the morning.

I work in the OR as well and I know at least a dozen co workers who have back problems. There are so many choices in the nursing field that I encourage them to seek other avenues of our field. If the OR is your love, maybe go for the educator or management roll where there are less hands on requirements. If you have…

me too!!!

chicken breakfast burrito!! plus they have awesome coffee:D

bump for the pumpkin pie shake!

Thanks girl, it has been going better, still focusing on weight loss before the event. I hope your plans and fitness are going well.

I am getting married next fall. I have found a wedding is the best motivation for weight loss. I am almost at my goal for weight loss, but I have hit a plateau after I started weight training. I would be okay with maintaining this weight, but still losing inches (and getting toned)! Congratulations on your engagement!!

Breakfast lunch dinner dessert

I just bought sweet potatoes for dinner! They are nutrition packed and delicious, say yes!

Hello, be encouraged weight will come off with time:) Maybe the weight is water weight I noticed a lot of fast food and processed things in your diary that might be making you retain water. Drink more fluids and try to avoid salt for a few days and weight yourse;f again. You will be pleasantly surprised. Keep at it!

I am making sweet potato fries tonight (cut into fries cover with a thin layer of extra light olive oil and salt and bake) You could make sweet fries with cinnamon sugar as well, but I prefer salt and pepper on mine. If you want to bake your potato mix your butter with a tbs of honey and mash it into the potato, also…

I sent you a friend request, I eat from 1700-1900+ per day:) Even with that I am losing weight! I can not go without food.

Kitchen staples: protein powder frozen chicken breast (always have these in the freezer for meals) lots of fresh in season veggies and fruit low fat cheese oatmeal Greek yogurt low fat milk snacks that are low in calories, but satisfying (ie I eat granola bars with chocolate when I get cravings) I lost over 20 lbs in 3…

Congratulations future brides! I know it is tough staying motivated and on track, but we have the best reward to look forward too!...looking sexy on our wedding night:heart: ! Oh, and fitting into our dress lol

Happy nurses week. lol same here we had doughnuts delivered Monday morning, BBQ lunch Wednesday and cupcakes today with lunch, not to mention the unit covered dishes we have ALL the time. I feel like the black sheep still bringing my lunch to avoid the temptation. Sad thing is this is all the perks we get to enjoy since…

Welcome Linda! It is great to have you:)

5' 11": 170lbs Size: 11/ 12..but they are getting looser:)

I would write everything down on a pro/ con list. It sometimes helps to visualize the benefits and hardships the change in position would create. Do you need the extra money and gas savings more than benefits? Can you purchase health insurance at a reasonable rate? Are you okay with job insecurity? I feel like I get…

Wow I see a lot of good ideas out there, thanks for sharing. I am scared, but tomorrow I will add some spinach to my normal protein. I was inspired by those who added the spinach with the sweet flavors like vanilla.

I like that you add oatmeal, I'm going to try that next time.

lean turkey bacon BLT with the "L" being spinach with avocado slices in a spinach wrap:)...maybe some sweet potato chips on the side:D

Amazing story, you are going to look fantastic on your wedding day:)

Best: I look/ feel better Worst: I threw away my skinny jeans before I started losing weight:(

Try coffee when I have constipated patients I try 4oz of prune juice with 30ml Milk of Mag with my elderly patients, but I had this patient swear by coffee, so I tried it one day on myself and it worked. It is easier to get down than milk of mag so that is what I use when I feel the need to go but can't. About 16oz black…

kashi cereal and a pear ...and 5 cups of coffee:/
