My new favorite is 1 cup ice, 2 tbsp. PB powder, 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder, 1 cup spinach, and 1/2 a frozen banana.

I feel like I really need this too! Someone to keep tabs on me. I do so much better with accountability!

You guys are amazing. I have accepted that this is all on me. I need to cut the excuses out of my life for good! Am I busy? Yes but so are most people. I need to move my butt lol!! I love the idea of planning a whole week of food and then shopping once. I have never done that. I always think I have but usually I have…

I love the idea of putting money away as well. All of these are great ideas! Thanks!

wow awesome final goal reward!! I love some of those ideas thanks!

I am in!!

I know I am trying to break the bad habits for her early. She is of course a string bean like her dad right now but I know it is not healthy for her. I think I just need to push myself to prep meals. Like I was super proud cause I got up this morning and actually made a healthy lunch instead of grabbing a frozen dinner or…

Reminds me of the first time I stepped on an elliptical!! Not only was I exhausted but felt completely uncoordinated!! I lasted all of 3 minutes. Fast forward 4 months later and I can go for an hour. It gets easier. Keep at it and it will all pay off!!!!

I have the same issue. I have no will power. I think it's about falling down and going back and saying this is why i fell. people you love can also help. Ask them to help remind you of your goals. I am starting over again. Feel free to add me for support.

My hubby will eat it and then complain an hour later that he is so hungry!!! I just tell him to go eat a carrot lol!

I can help motivate!! Feel free to add me anyone!

I am also looking for buddies! I ask currently 253 and am ready to make serious changes this time. I am 27 and my 55 year old momhas so many health problems that could be solved by diet and exercise. I need accountability. Feel free to add me!

I love the chipotle queso laughing cow cheese. I take a chicken breast and season it then bake until almost done. Then i take it out and slice a pocket into it and stuff the triangle in and top with a slice of thin pepper jack and bake about 10 more minutes. My favorite dinner!

Thank everyone. I will type up a letter but I feel I owe her an in person explanation. Like I said, I understand her and she has been good to me. I have never been good at leaving a job. I get emotionally and personally connected to my employers.

I will give the standard answer because it is my favorite. www.skinnytaste.com I have tried a lot of the recipes and they almost all have been awesome! (The one I didn't like was my fault for adding to much lime)

It is hard. I just had the a similar situation. I am an emotional eater and had a bad morning. Iwent to the gas station and had a deep fried cheesy chicken stick in my hand and was in line when I saw a healthier choice. I switched and it was good. I think eventually you stop craving the bad stuff but I still do every once…

My 21 month old is the worlds pickiest eater! The only time we can get her to clean her plate completly is if it is pasta. I tried the recipe below a couple weeks ago and she ate it all!! I throughly enjoyed it and thought it was an excellent pasta replacement.…

I believe that the ones with the chest strap are much more accurate ad they are constantly reading your heart rate. I love my pink Polar FT4. It changed the way I exercise. http://www.amazon.com/Polar-Heart-Rate-Monitor-Purple/dp/B005M1P85O/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

This is very tasty! Shrimp salad on cucumbers! http://www.skinnytaste.com/2010/08/shrimp-salad-on-cucumber-slices.html

I just wanted to say you look awesome and that I love that cake. So fun!!

i am 26 and looking to lose another 80lbs. Friends on here are awesome. It helps keep me encouraged and honest. Anyone feel free to add.

This is what everyone on here seems to use to get calulations. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/654536-in-place-of-a-road-map-2-0-revised-7-2-12

You should choose either what your TDEE-20% or MFp calorie goal. With TDEE-20% you shouldn't be sedentary id you workout hard thus increasing your numbers and you don't eat back exercise calories. If you use MFP, then record your exercise adn eat back those calories so you net 1330.

Mine is open. I feel it holds me accountable. I am not the best eater but I am honest with myself at least :-)

This webiste is awesome!! It totally keeps me accountable. When I started I wasn't that commited but then I opened my diary and the realization that everybody could see what I ate made me want to eat better!! I log on everyday and would be happy to support all!!

I love this recipe for avocado egg salad. http://www.skinnytaste.com/2012/04/avocado-egg-salad.html

These are awesome!! http://www.skinnytaste.com/2012/05/buffalo-turkey-burgers-with-blue-cheese.html

Thanks, I am super new to weights and had to look up all the lifts, lol.

I don't have one but my boss does. It is more than a hrm. And it does require a monthly subscription.
