I don't drink much at all. I can go years and years and not even think about it. I have recently tried wines. I have friends that go to wine tasting and thought that might be interesting. Reds are suppose to be good for your heart, but I have not found a red I like and usually take a sip and pour the bottle out. Quite…

Great job! That is awesome and one of my goals!

I like this. I have lost an average 2 year old:)

I am 5'4" SW 215 CW 190.7 GW 140 Started MFP in March. The weight is coming off SLOWLY.

I am in the Chicago area.

Feel free to add me! We have about the same goal. I love this sight :) I log daily unless I am out of town and unable to(which is rare). I try to exercise at least 5 times a week and watch my calorie intake. The people on this site are amazing and so inspirational!

That's great!! Some people might not think it's much but I can relate. I was so excited two days ago as I was doing a workout video. I was going along with the stretch but this time I could touch my toes without bending my knees!! I have been working with these videos since March! I can't even remember the last time I was…

-The John Hancock Tower has The Signature Room on the 95th and 96th floors. Excellent food! -Field Museum, Shedd aquarium, Adler Planetarium, The Museum of Science and Industry check with the websites on these as they sometimes have free days -At Navy Pier make sure you go up to the Ferris Wheel - inside upstairs there is…

I eat baked, cheddar quakes or those new special k cracker chips are good. If it has a weight (like 1 oz) and a count, I find it easier to weigh on the scale.

It is Bon Jovi...Bad Medicine. It sounds familiar! I'm guessing the name would be Mama

Try chopping in cubes and roasting with a little olive oil and some italian spices or spices of your choosing. Love them this way, they get a little crunch to them.

You are doing great!

You are doing absolutely wonderful!!

Huge variety. John Cougar Mellencamp's Hurt So Good, Enrique's I Like It is one of my faves and Escape is great also, Lady Gaga, Billy Idol, Foreigner's Urgent, Madonna, Justin Timberlake, The Backstreet Boys, Lady Antebellum, Bryan Adams, Toby Mac, Blue Oyster Cult's Burnin for you is pretty good, P!nk, Keith Urban,…

I too have recently finished up round one.I started p90x and MFP about the same time. I lost 21 pounds but the toning from the workout is the best! I love how my muscles are becoming sculpted. I still do p90x usually 3 days a week, elliptical and C25K on the other days. I am wanting to go another round so now would be a…

I ate already but I had a Jimmy Dean Delights French Toast Griddler - It was yummy 240 calories. Also had a cup of coffee and some fresh strawberries.

I work Fri, Sat and Sun 7p-7a. I flip through the week. When I started I wasn't sure how to do my meals on the weekends and still not sure if I am doing it right. I seem to always go over on Monday due to the 2 or 3 am snack. I cannot go all shift without eating. I would completely pass out in the floor. Feel free to add…

Max HR- would this be the 80%? How do you make them the most accurate? I too am trying to figure all this out and am very new to the HRM.

By the way, how do you get the ticker to show in your posts?

I listened to my body and my body wanted me to eat and now I am overweight trying to lose. lol

I am in on this one!

Wow! you are doing awesome! I am almost out of the 190's and can't wait to get there! I started at 215 and it's slowly coming off.

by the way, how do you get your ticker to post?

Only .2 down. I am increasing my exercise this week and trying to watch my calories more closely.

I have p90x and it is a workout. I still have to modify some of the moves, but I love it. I would like to get a copy of the p90. I will have to look at the big lots in my area.

I am from the south- moved to the north 2 years ago and I miss the south!! Lived in GA the majority of my life, but have also lived in FL, TN, KY and AL.

I am close to 40. I will be even closer in a couple of months when I turn 39. Am I close enough? I do have over 50 lbs to lose. I love this site and all the friends I have made along my journey so far. Good luck to you!! :happy:

I am 5'4" and currently weigh 196. I started MFP at 215 and have lost 19 over the past (almost) 3 months.
