You are doing an amazing thing for yourself and it shows!! you look fabulous!!! and YES it is worth it to keep going for YOU, not for or because of anyone else. and don't let them control you and how you feel about yourself. On a side note, I would work on a good comeback for those two (insert swear word of choice here).…

^^This!^^ Great job on sticking with it! 10 years is long history of bad habits that you are breaking! :) that deserves bragging rights!

seriously... what is 2 tbls of RediWhip whipped cream at 50 cals. is that 2 tbls before or after you filled it full of air??? :frown:

is it too late to start?? Put me down for 100 miles. I have completed 12.1 miles so far. :)

Thanks for the tip! I searched it and the website says that all 3 grocery stores in my town sell this stuff... I am gonna check it out! :) Ice Cream is my Achilles heal. Just love it!

http://nutritiondata.self.com/ A good place to get nutritional info. :)

Ummm... people don't usually cook just 1/4 cup of dry rice, so not sure this is too helpful? However most of the rice measurements I use here on MFP are cooked volume so I think it should be good enough. Nothing measured here or anywhere else is going to be 100% accurate anyway.

My green smoothies vary from 400+ to almost 800 depending on what I put in it, but it makes a huge shake (usually 2 tumblers) at the higher calorie range and is my whole breakfast, but yes. it is a shock every time because I don't calculate the cals till I put everything in it. it is different almost every time i make it.

WHAT???? :noway: oh man!!! :sad:

^^this^^ Seriously! how can mac and cheese (just talking Kraft here...) be so many freakin' calories!!! That isn't even talking about fresh mac and cheese... can't even begin to wonder at the calories in that... and I LOVE the stuff!!!

that is the biggest one... many trails have lines now, and people with their dogs or strollers will take up both sides.

I just started a pole dancing class (2 classes in so far) and my arms are dead for 2 days afterward. I am not sure you will see alot of body comp changes unless you incorporate cardio into your workout routine as it is pretty much all strength training. Our instructor can do some crazy things, but she doesn't look fit and…

Your body will use the protein to the extent that you are breaking down muscle and causing it to rebuild with some type of resistance training, etc. If your body is not building muscle it will use just enough to maintiain and turn the rest into energy (ATP) or energy stores (fat). It will also use proteins for various…

I have zone protein bars, granola and powdered milk (so it doesn't go bad), and cans of soup or stay fresh meals for emergencies (high salt makes them not so desirable), sugar free cocoa, protein powder, powdered sugar free drink flavors (like from crystal light), quaker granola bars (100 calories), peanut butter. canned…

This Saturday. Susan B Anthony 5K Women's only race. with my sister. - http://www.buffalochips.com/sba5k/ Oct. 19 - Carter and Cash Half Marathon Relay with my sister-in-law - http://www.folsomblueshalf.org/page/show/219146-carter-and-cash-relay

^^this^^ I plan to keep tracking.

I like RK because they will give me voice ques for as few os 1 minute intervals, where the other apps only give this feature for a paid membership. RK is more difficult to manually enter your maps, thought. Another feature I like from RK over MMF is I can download my runs in bulk, I can then upload them to runtastic or MMF…

Slow and steady Rocks!!! :drinker: (just another affirmation, because there are not enough out there. :flowerforyou: )

I have used 2 different phones with 2 different pre-installed generic music apps and they both worked just fine. Just make sure you create a playlist first. Zombies, Run! only recognizes the playlist in the app. (It will also recognize spotify, an app similar to pandora but lets you make playlists, etc, but they charge a…

Have you tried Zombies, Run! ? It is a running app that is also a game! it is way fun and it can sync with runkeeper which synchs with MFP so your runs and minutes will get counted. :) You play as a runner for a survivors camp called Able. :) https://www.zombiesrungame.com/ the main sight.…
