I sent you a message..... Bottom Line: GO WITH YOUR GUT INSTINCT!!!!

My skinny jeans are too big!

It takes less than 30 seconds to down a bottle of water :drinker: -That's how I do it....chug away!

Get a Heart Rate Monitor (HRM)- you will be thankful!!!! :)

I would throw it in a trash can that she will see it in. Garbage goes in the garbage :) Tell her when you want pizza- you will have to make room for it in your calories....it's all about the planning & moderation! Good job sticking to your guns!!!!

^^^this^^^^

I'm a transplant from Iowa in Arizona :happy:

Amen!!!!

I like mine with a dash of skim milk (or 2%)......I like my coffee bold!

You don't cook it at night- you put in the fridge and it "cooks" overnight. Some people like it cold..... I like it both ways....and I enjoy being a strange creature- wouldn't change it for the world!

Vodka and Cookies!

I find it easier to take a day off every 3-4 days...I work out 5-6 days a week. It was hard at first, but now I look forward to those days!

I TRY to keep my sodium at or below 2500. When I go over 3000 my fingers and toes blow up!

Tomorrow is the big day for the happy couple!!!! I can't wait to see pics!!!! Congrats!

My bf just the other night came home and out of nowhere was like "wow, you look great!" Quickly after he made some statement about how hard it is to tell when someone close to loses weight because it's so gradual and you really don't think about it. I believe that was his way of telling me- "sorry for not noticing sooner"…

I only have 3 years with my man and it still feels like the first 6 months!!!!!! I couldn't agree more with ^^^^^^ :heart:

Candy or money! Licorice is a good one to hand out! M&Ms with pretzels are not too bad either. I agree with everyone else- don't be the one that hands out "boring" stuff! Let the parents exercise the duties of eating candy! Quarters are always fun- or go to the bank and get some fifty cent pieces (do they still make…

Me too for the most part! I also have another snack later in the evening. I eat 6 small meals throughout the entire day!

Great, thanks for that!!! :tongue:

Agoraphobia - I would rather sit in a closet than in an open field! ARACHNOPHOBIA- not just spiders- mostly scorpions!!!!!!!!!!!! yuck!

Agreed, and you should also be using the same scale for consistency...

I usually buy the 1% kind (the no-fat tastes funny)- I like the large curds over the small ones as well. I like to put Western dressing on mine - Yum!

I usually burn around 140-180 calories per session- I am 5'4" at 114 pounds (very near my goal weight). There is a circuit training under cardio I see other people use. A HRM would be your best bet!

Composition class at a small community college in Iowa! 3 years today, both with our BS from SIUC, and still loving each other!

NO makeup or crocs here though!

I run at 6.5 mph at a 3% incline and walk 4.4 mph at a 6% incline....I burn almost 600 calories in an hour.

I lose one pound a month. I am very close to my goal though- so this is typical for me. Like everyone else- .5-1 pound a week is healthy.

Same here! Although, he never complains if I don't get something done, and he also has no problem doing something himself if he has to. My man works super hard to provide for us. I work full time as well- but it just supplements what he makes. I love being "needed" around the house. I can officially say I run our…
