  • I may be a bit late on this one but if you are putting it in to a 13 x 9 pan you are probably going to cut it in to squares which should put you at 9 -12 servings depending on how big you cut the square. I would enter the recipe on the spark recipe site and figure 9 servings. The figure I come up with is 63.3333 calories…
  • I like to bundle them up and drop them off at my work! that way everyone else gets them and not me!
  • Thanks for the great welcome! I actually have a boy and a girl thank goodness! they are crazy and fun and starting to learn so much at school I can hardly stand it! When I was first prego I realized that I was about 30 lbs over weight, much to my horror. After I had them (7 weeks early) I lost the 15 I had gained plus…
  • Hi! I'm not new to MFP but have yet to drop any poundage in the 6 months I have been on here! I have 5 1/2 year twins who are in kindergarten in the am! That is when I head to the gym to get in a good workout either with a friend or a trainer! I have been working so hard and have not dropped one pound instead gaining 15!…
  • I smoked for 17 years. I FINALLY quit using the Chantix. I know there have been a lot of things said about it and the side effects but it worked like a charm for me and even though sometimes I think I still want to light up I don't. It was a life saver for me! It has been 1 1/2 years so far and I am so much more active…
  • Some of the advice I was given when I was craving a cigarette was to do something like crunches until the craving passed.:devil: Kill two birds with one stone so to speak.:huh: Clean something was my favorite!:bigsmile: I can't tell you how clean my fridge was during that time! Keep it up it will get better!:flowerforyou:
  • Good Luck! I quit 13 months ago using Chantix and it was the best decision ever! I am so much more able to get a good workout in since I can breathe! :tongue:

  • Cooking light has the best double cheese meatloaf recipe! It calls for a mixture of three meats but I always use just the hamburger! Everyone will love it! If you can't find it on the cooking light website let me know and I will grab the recipe for you!
  • okay maybe I am now a little on the brain dead side. Intense cardio???? Meaning????? Aaack! I am really feeling dumb!
  • I started a small group training today (4 of us) with a personal trainer and we were doing something like 2 laps around the track, forward and backward lunges for 1 minute, side lunges with 10 pound weights for 1 minutes, 2 laps, 2 laps with 10 pound weights, reverse hamstring curls for 1 minute, flies for 1 minute, tricep…
  • Daily I do at minimum 30 minutes on the treadmill at a brisk pace, then two days a week I take a 60 minute weight lifting class (BodyPump), three days a week I do pilates plus I wait tables 3-4 nights a week.
  • That could be! Although I don't measure my food I have upped my protein intake and lowered my carbs (love carbs) I eat lots of fruit and veggies and I work out nearly 1 1/2 hours a day from hitting the treadmill to pilates to weight lifting! I am just finding it very hard to believe that I am not making one little dent.…
  • I have been on this site counting calories and excercising like crazy four 4 weeks now and have not lost one single pound. I drink water like it's going out of style and eat healthy stuff! What is the problem?? I was even sicker than a dog last week and did not lose one single pound! How is that possible?? This is enough…
  • I'm a fan and am so over the whole writers strike! Let's get back to some good shows!
  • It is worth it! If you are interested there is a body pump class at most rec centers and I see that you live in Colorado so I will tell you they offer a ton of different times in Castle Rock! I go two times a week when my kids are in school and it is fabulous! Fast paced weight lifting!
  • Amen to that!
  • I eat pretty health except for the occasional slice of pizza or chocolate. My biggest problem is bread and pasta, you know, CARBS!!!! I have layed off of those for a while so I just am not sure what the deal is! I know its a lot to expect any kind of result in such a short amount of time but something anything would be…
  • Sorry! I'm 5'4, Currently 145-150lbs 33 years old The site says my calorie intake should be 1200 and I am eating the calories I burn This is a fairly new workout aside from the pilates. I often hit the treadmill but not for more than 20 minutes so I have upped that to 30 minutes or more a day. I am a stay at home mom but I…
  • I am new at this! I started on this site a week ago but two weeks ago started counting calories and upping my workouts! I hit the treadmill 6 days a week, take a weight lifting class 2-3 times a week, and do pilates 3 days a week. I have really been staying on the calorie intake and NOTHING is happening! In fact, I went up…
  • I just passed my one year anniversary of quitting smoking! I too used Chantix and thought it was great! I put on about 15 pounds over the last year and am trying to lose it again. I was active before quitting running, and doing/teaching pilates. It takes time and your body has to adjust. One of the things your body craves…
  • I teach Mat Pilates and it really is a great way to improve flexibility as well as tone and tighten up! I recommend a mat class, it definitely gives you the best bang for your buck.

  • HI! I am 33 and a mother of 5 year old twins! When I first had my kids I was over weight and the pounds just dropped off! I was thrilled! Then I quit smoking a year ago and they reappeared! I am hoping that keeping track of everything I am doing will make a difference and I can get back to the weight I was after giving…
