  • Lucy in DE - I don't know what the water pitcher is called, and it was a gift, but I do know it came from Bed Bath & Beyond. It is plastic and holds about 8 cups of water. It has a plastic 'core' that the top screws onto. The core is hollow with slits in it. You fill it with fruit, or whatever, it sits inside the pitcher…

  • Hey all - just dropping in again to mark my spot and to say how much I enjoy this group! I hit 20lbs off today. Off for good! I have plenty more to go, but this site is helping me stay true to logging in. I have dramatically improved my water intake - and that has always been a difficult thing for me in the past. But I…

  • Hi Wonderful Ladies! I'm still here and doing well. I am writing to bump this - I need to catch up! I'm a Boston gal, and have been preoccupied to say the least. I know so many of you have said prayers for the victims and the people of my wonderful city. And last night was just crazy - watching, praying, waiting. But many…

  • Hello Everyone! I'm checking in again - and sorry I can't yet do the 'roll call' thing that more experienced users do. I LOVE that! I scan for my name and feel like you are giving me a big hug and push to keep going. I'm setting some goals for the week: Log my food every day (so far so good since I've come back to MFP).…

  • Wow - you are all so inspiring! I am very happy to have stumbled across this lively group!! We spent the morning painting my home office downstairs - big room and of course, I have to do an accent wall and there's a lot of cuts. So my husband and I did all the cuts this morning. And then in the afternoon, we had to go to…

  • My mother saved my life once. I fell asleep while I was driving to work one morning. She yelled very loudly and very sternly (as only mothers can do) "Mary, wake up NOW!" My eyes shot open and I was less than a foot from a guard rail, and travelling about 70mph. I swerved to avoid the guard rail and got the car under…

  • Hey all! I'm still here and happy about it, too. I have to admit, I love the convo about the bras. I was looking for ways to reward myself for reaching certain milestones on this journey. And I think getting fitted and purchasing a lovely new bra or two is perfect! Thanks for the idea, ladies! Do you guys reward yourselves…

  • Thank you for the welcome messages. What a nice group! It's nice to have a place to land where I can relate freely about dieting, excercising, food, behavior and all that stuff without boring everyone in my house!! Actually, it's just my husband and I (and our dog). But he LOVES food and is a chef....and I LOVE food, but…

  • Hello! I joined MFP about a year ago and never really used it. I've 'rejoined' just this week, and after playing around a bit, I'm definitely loving this and using it! Some of my goals for April: workout 3x per week at least 30 minutes each. Eat less and move more - general goal to create my new lifestyle. Log into MFP and…

  • I think MFP is going to be a great tool for you. Obviously, you are used to logging your food and activity. So I think this will not be a difficult transition for you. Best of luck and I am sure you are going to rock this!

  • Miss AleyJewell, Write up a professional resignation letter. Make it short and polite. State that you have a better opportunity for YOURSELF. Don't negotiate, move on. This current job will not ever be what it should be for you. Give your boss 2 weeks notice - that is industry standard and it is professional to do so.…
