OMG...Thank you to all that replied,you made my day!!!! We are truly a funny bunch of awesome people. I love you guys!!!!

I am with you,water actually gives me terrible heartburn;-((( Diet Coke does not..so strange...lol.. I try to use little plastic cups to try to get through the day....I don't beat myself up if I don't drink 8 glasses and neither should you..We are trying..good luck,your not alone.

Add me too!!! I love giving and getting positive reinforcement,advice and lots of laughs!! Oh and by the way..I'm a Hello Kitty fan too;-)

I just bought the Polar watch/ heart monitor,and it is great!!!! It displays my heart rate constantly (which motivates me to kick it up a notch) and at the end tells me a breakdown of the work out,calories etc...I highly recommend. It's 95.00.

Love MFP.. so much support and positive energy...no longer into fb.

I would love to be your friend:)) Great at motivating and having some laughs. Oh and the occasional pity party!lol!

Love these!!!!@ Thanks!

Does the no carb after lunch apply to fruits and veggies? They are carbs. Can't imagine that.

So glad for this thread:)) I am an avid red wine drinker. What I do is limit my sugar intake during the day so I free up some carbs and calories to enjoy a few glasses of wine with dinner. It has worked great so far. My mantra is I'd rather drink my calories than have a piece of bread or desert. I still stay under my…

I'm not twisted or demented but I admire those qualities in others..Hope you add me:-)

Yum!! I marinate mine in fat free Italian dressing and grill them..Super good...Be careful with P.B mushrooms and olive oil. They,like egg plant are SUPER absorbant and can become quite high in calories and fat if marinated in too much of any type of oil.

Thanks so much for the tip...Plateau seems to be my middle name!lol! Will let you know how it goes.

Stay the course,you can do it!!! I too make food from scratch..It gets really easy to get close comparisons. Welcome! Add me if you'd like.

Congrats!! Your hard work obviously paid off:)

Thanks for the tip..I saw on your comments that you do these classes..Already googled them and looking for a gym that offers classes in my area..Thanks again!

I see that you do those classes and googled them..They sound awesome. Hoping to find classes in my area. Thanks for the tip!

Can that be true!!!?? OMG... That is hysterical!

very interesting..I would love to hear your thoughts on cardio. I don;t really like it and would much rather strength train.

I add apple sauce to it and bake it...yummy...

Logging drinks in your snacks is the only real way to do it. They have many beer,wine and liquor selections and they are acurrate in their calorie/carb/sugar etc..You really should log it,I know its a drag but those calories really add up. Good luck. Cheers!!!

Love this challenge..Need the motivation,please add me:happy:

Green coffee bean extract is AWESOME!!!!!:love:

I feel the exact same way as you sometimes,but the reality is...working out makes you feel really good:-)))

Hi! I would love to join your thread. This is a great fun and motivational idea;-) I am pretty new to MFP so have no idea how to set my ticker??? Any help/advice?

I feel your pain.. I've been on MFP for OVER two months and no loss yet..I posted a similiar message last week.. I received a lot of support. After doing some soul searching I realized I was sort of manipulating my food log, I have since started logging EVERYTHING, accurately. The process of fully realizing what I was…

OMG...I felt like I was reading my own mind!!!!! I am having the EXACT same issues...working out, eating the same foods and amounts..Increased work out,cut back on food..Nothing..WTH????? Hope we get some constructive advice. Thanks for posting! Good Luck..

Your picture is hysterical!!!:laugh:

Where do they indicate sodium intake??? I missed that??

We are in the exact same boat!!! I am at the realization where its just going to have to be apart of life. I slip up but get right back on track. If I can do it ANYONE can do it! Good Luck!
