Don't give up what you want most for what you want now.

Hi Tracy! Welcome to MFP and congratulations on your upcoming wedding!! :) I've been a member for a month and a half and I'm loving it here. If you're looking for friends or support feel free to add me. :)

I'm also interested in the answer. I bought some for the flavor but I'd like to know if the health claims about it are really true.

Keep up the good work!!

I stopped smoking 3 months ago...feel free to add me if you want :)

Here's my back fat when I started: And here it is after my first month on MFP:

Have you been logging all of your food? If so, you should make your diary public so people can get a better idea of what you're eating. :)

I recently returned a cheap HRM because it kept dropping my heart rate and I bought the Polar FT4 to replace it...and wow! I love the Polar FT4! Spend the money...it's worth it. :wink: ETA: I don't think there's a big difference between the men's and women's other than color and perhaps size. I didn't get the women's one…

Keep up the good work! You're looking great! :)

Thank you! I think I might take the plunge and buy a kettlebell (and DVD) and I'll check out the Nerd Fitness exercises. :)

I have the same issue! Unfortunately, you can't 'target' your muffin top or tummy because it's impossible to spot reduce. You will need to do cardio in order to burn away the fat....but your body chooses where it comes from. My best advice is to do what I'm doing: Work hard, eat healthy and be patient. Eventually your…

Wow! I'm so glad that your friend's sister is ok! Thank you for sharing this story...you are so right that being healthy should be the number one reason for getting fit.

Have you looked it up on the internet to see if the nutional info is online somewhere? If you still can't find any info then yes, find something close. :)

I swear at her sometimes too. :)

Good luck....I hope it works for you :)

I looked at the No S diet website and I'm still not impressed.

I'm not really into "diets" but ask yourself if you could stick the the No S diet forever. I know I couldn't. I need occasional sweets (when they fit into my daily calories...not just on weekends) and sometimes daily snacks. Moderation is key.

@Andrea 29?

Non Scale Victory.

I totally understand! I had to take my son in for a pea up his nose a few months ago. :)

Welcome! You can add me if you want. :)

Thank you for the great post!

Congratulations!! :)

I thought of this crazy lady when I saw this thread too! Glad you posted her picture here.

Isn't that the truth!

This sounds good to me. Honestly, I only asked about macros because they're brought up quite frequently so I wanted to be sure that I wasn't missing anything.

I've seen several posts about eating more protein here on MFP which is why I started questioning. I'll probably stick with what MFP has set up for me as long as I'm seeing results. Personally, my goal is to eat lean meats, complex carbs and lots of fruit and vegetables stay under my calories (net) for the day. There is…

Thanks all. I'm still mainly focusing on calories and not worrying about the rest but I've started to think that I need more protein.

Bump.

Yikes! I bet you do! Just think about how motivated you'll be when you're able to put weight on it again.
