Congratulations you've really done outstanding work. :drinker:

Hi for me they are very worth it. When I started here at my Fitness Pal I was totally a couch potatoso I decided to exercise a little bit but I have no idea how much I actually moved. so for me it's really been worth it I am very self competitive I just love challenging myself I really love how my fitness tracker has…

I really like pure protein powder, I use the chocolate frost flavor and I like to add either almond or coconut extract. I also like pure protein vanilla sometimes I'll add instant coffee fur a mocha flavor. Both of these I use with silk almond milk the 30 calorie a cup one. As for using the exercise calories my thoughts…

Bravo, what a wonderful uplifting story of success. Thank you for sharing. :drinker:

Hi Hon congratulations on making this big step coming here and asking for help here. I found a website that deals with exercise with disabilities. You can join in a 14 week guided program. Check them out. Good luck, be patient and don't give up! I hope this helps :-):drinker: http://www.ncpad.org/ Welcome to NCPAD's…

Thank you so much these sound delightful!

Hi your page says you've lost 9 pounds so sounds you are doing pretty well. Seriously, how old are you? Many many people gain weight when they start college. I'm guessing that unless you are only 4 feet tall your weight is probably very healthy. Take care Hun most people do gain a bit of weight as they get older. Relax a…

Oh to have never started smoking. That is my greatest wish because if you can't breathe nothing else matters!

There was the fitbit one, fitbit flex and soon to be released fitbit force. Perhaps fitbit will allow you to trade for the soon to be released fitbit force. I had the fitbit one myself and it really was not bad but it is pretty old school now! (This comment is meant for lady that just sent for the fitbit one)

Hi I've had a fitbit which I've really loved. After more than a years use it broke. I know about the fitbit flex and it is going to be updated with the fitbit force that will be released in about 4 weeks. I am going to wait for it to be released to replace my fitbit. There is an excellent review of it at www.cnet.com Best…

www.theyummylife.com/8_muesli_flavors Hi I think oatmeal is a great choice for cereal. The oatmeal that you cook on the stove not the packets. There are some wonderful make ahead recipes think nuts, fruit etc. I think this is an wonderful site with some really great recipes.

Hi I saw your questions about carbs. I've been doing low carb since September 21 St and I've lost about 16 pounds in that time. I've gone from211.4 to 194.8. I've got a long way to go but I think that's a pretty good start. I'm doing low carb of course to loose weight but like you I too have a problem with chocolate! With…

Hello that's awesome that you've chosen to try this new way of eating. I'm new to this but I think it's important to think of this a life style change rather than a diet. This new thing can be confusing but you took a good step by coming here to talk to others. There is a free Atkins app that I use and really have found…

Hello I am really looking forward to this new challenge. I hope there is room left, if not I would be happy to go on the wait list. Thank you for all that you do! :flowerforyou: Gina

I like this: Damnit...I can't say what I want to because I'm sure I'd earn my first strike if I did......:blushing: [/quote]

Seriously I'm not making any moral judgments about it....I am in agreement with someone else who said it never works out. One person generally will develop feelings. How many people do you have in your life that you enjoy this kind of friendship with, that you enjoy working out with? People say they can handle it but the…

I really feel bad for anyone that is taken in from sales pitches and fad things. Salt cleanse, really? I say don't do it. If you are constipated you may wish to try miralax. Our body's really is pretty efficient at cleansing and purifying itself. I feel you are better served by focusing on nutrition, exercise and other…

Hi, I also became frustrated with the two together so I unlinked them. I love mfp, and I love my fitbit but not so much toghether.As another person mentioned I only use fitbit for the dashboard, sleep,, steps and activity. I use mfp to log my food and to record my activities. This is what I found to work best for me.…

Wonderful job you look marvelous! :flowerforyou:

Hi for sweet potatoes I have been adding nutmeg and cinnamon. I've been cooking butternut squash too and with this I have added nutmeg, curry and powdered ginger for an Indian type flavoring.

What a wonderful post. Good for you. :flowerforyou:

Oh My! I just did a google search too.......I really can't say anything different from what others have mentioned. Pregnancy. Tests are very inexpensive now aren't they? Sorry I wish I had more to add. Good luck sweetie. :noway:

Oh for me that most certainly is running.:laugh:

Absolutely fantastic. Congratulations on your success and hard work. :drinker:

I love corn tortilla's they have so much flavor and they are only about 45 calories. Sounds funny but you can heat them up in your regular toaster. Quick, easy, toasty, tasty and low calorie. I have used them plain along with my eggs kind of as a scooper and also I have used them with a bit of meat inside and rolled up.…

Neil that is beautiful. Thank you for sharing with us. :flowerforyou:

Egg whites in the carton.....hard boil eggs and eat only the white, that is a 17 calorie snack,.........oscar meyer bacon bits are only 25 calories a tablespoon and a tablespoon has a lot of flavor. I myself love spinach I buy it frozen and add 1 oz cheese and 1tbs of bacon bits to it. Good luck I am not looking forward to…

Holy Cow batman you have lost a 5th grader. You look fantastic congratulations on your hard work
