  • I've been in a few weddings..some brides don't think when they choose the dresses for their girls. I was the only attendant last year and had to wear YELLOW. Sunshine yellow. And a girl who wears size 18 should never wear yellow.. And the year before I got to wear a brown strapless thing. I am a size E! The strapless bra…
  • I think DDR records your calories burned/session after you enter your weight. I wonder if just manually entering in the calories in MFP would be most accurate? :drinker:
  • I take PGX supplements occasionally..all they are is soluble fibre, no sugar or carbs. You just take a couple 20 mins before you eat with water and they do the same as the Fullbars...they expand in your stomach. But the fun part is the side affects by adding all this fibre to your diet lol I think a big glass of water 20…
  • Company's Coming series has quite a few "diet" books..geared toward anything from low cal to low carb to diabetic cooking. :smile:
  • Thanks, you guys!!! :happy: Just moving at least 5 days a week. (Swimming laps at the pool, walking at the track, doing exercise DVD's at home.) Trying to burn at least 300 calories each time. (I was totally sedentary, desk job etc etc) Also keeping track of calories on here. I'm kinda following the GI diet, not…
  • That is AWESOME..thanks for sharing it! And because you're a fellow Canadian it's food I actually buy! Thanks for the other suggestions too, people..I am playing with those now to see how they compare. :) The sites I found last night by googling were horrible and it's better to get people's opinions that have actually used…
  • I always warn my husband that someday Gerard Butler is going to come for me, and rocknrolla is the name of one of his latest movies. And rocknrollgrrl was taken. ;)
  • I logged about 1/4 cup.. it was a big bowl of popcorn (about 6 cups) and I had about 330 calories left to use, so I thought I could "afford" the butter. lol. I seem to react to chemicals in microwave popcorns so I stick with the air popped (although I see they are getting to be almost ancient LMAO I'm in Canada too, and…
  • I had that old style stripper song...lmao...not that I chose it, but it's what the DJ played lmao
  • Since you are at the gym already, why not try to up your workouts an extra even 10 minutes a week till you're up to an hour? Mix it up a little..try other machines other than the treadmill or elliptical, maybe try machines that challenge your body like the rowing machine or the stationary bike. Or look into a good class,…
  • I like my digital scale because I like to see the losses by the ounce as well as the pound. ;) I weigh in Friday morning, naked, after potty.
  • I do know Jenny Craig is really expensive..Nutri System is a bit cheaper than Jenny. But with both programs you have foods that are full of preservatives...even after shelling out a bunch of money you still have to purchase dairy, fresh produce etc. Weight Watchers I did off and on..good if you need face to face group…
  • I too have it..couldn't figure out how I put on 60 lbs in 3 months until finally I was diagnosed! I can suggest the following: Eat foods higher in iodine (sea salt, sea kelp, seaweed- think sushi :wink: ) Also fresh fish, fish oils. You can also buy supplements in the health food stores. Limit your white flour products and…
  • I love the Walk away the Pounds dvd's. You don't have to be Paula Abdul to follow the steps, and you can go at whatever pace works for you.
  • I've done SP before and find this site to be waaaay more user friendly. Better food database, and less junk mail flooding my email inbox. :flowerforyou:
  • I put a sticker on the calendar on days I exercise. LOL..HEy, it helps! :blushing:
  • Stay the he!! off the scale between weigh in's! Your body is adapting to changes and your weight WILL fluctuate from day to day. :flowerforyou:
  • Is P90x for people of all fitness levels? Or do you have to already be in relatively good shape?:bigsmile:
  • Nothin' wrong with beef..stick to lean cuts, buy the extra lean ground beef, and cook it in its natural juices or Pam spray.
  • I buy the Kaizen brand single use packets. I'm not one to drink the shakes every day and so it doesn't go stale. ;)
  • I had one of the ones with the big display on them and the little colored markers that slide around..but I decided to switch to a digital scale. I like to see the ounces lost as well as the pounds..and the digital scales seem more accurate! :smile:
  • I also find that when I'm not drinking my water, I feel hungry. Maybe try a glass of water with lemon? Another idea is to eat some veggies. Raw, steamed, whatever. Have them chopped up in the fridge ready to grab. :) Are you eating enough protein? Try to choose foods that stay with you longer..if your blood sugar spikes,…
  • Hi, I'm from BC too, up in Prince George! Good luck on your quest!
  • :happy: WTG! It's my first day too, this site seems to be a lot better than the few I have actually paid to use! Good luck on your journey! :)
