Ive been on MFP about 9 months! Fell free to add me!

Ive tried every flavor- and I LOVE these! The only one I dont like is Strawberry Banana. My fav is Pineapple. Yes, they are high in sugar, like most yogurts, but they are creamy and delicious! I will eat mine with 1/4Cup of Wheaties Fuel cereal as my breakfast. Yummy!

Id love for you to add me!

You look AMAZING! You're just a litle thing now! What an inspiration you are! Thanks for sharing!
-
All great advice here! I love oil and viegar with salt and pepper- not too much oil. Experiment and make your own concoctions in a shaker. It takes some time- but you ll get to where you dont need much dressing!

PS- Turbo FIre is AWESOME!

Make sure you are tweeking your diet- Results are 80% What you put in your mouth. Also, you could be eating too little for the amount of working out you are doing. I know with me...... at one time I was a 130 lbs size 8.. then I got really good about the types of food I ate, and did both cardio and weight training- and…

Liz- Yeah, try never to be under 1200. Best case scenario is to eat all the calories allowed to you based on what you put in to MFP- and even eat back your workout calories. You might need more like a 1400 cal minimum. If you are eating well, working out, and not loosing weight- you will know you need to eat more calories!…

BRINT IT! IM ALL IN!

Take it one choice at a time- one meal at a time, one day at a time! Oh- and the phone app has a bar code scanner now- have you used that yet? Its so cool! Love you sis!

Firstly, sorry for your loss! I suffreed 3 miscarraiges-so I can empathize. Part of your issues could be related to the stress and emotions of what you have been through! Also- 1200 calories is too low, especially if you are working out! Like so many have said- eat back the calories your burn during excercise! Also- change…

NICE- add some music and increase your time a little every day! YOU CAN DO THIS!

Welcome! This site will really help you! I had thyroid problems in my early 20's (Hyperthyroid) and had it obliterated- so now I take meds every day- and over the years finding the right Rx has been a challange! As far as diets- ive tried EVERY ONE! The most realistic is just to eat healthy and excercise! However, I did…

Welcome! This site is awesome! Make sure to track ALL you eat- even on the days you go overbeard- it will reallyhelp you in the long run! Happy tracking!

Im a fan of Polar! They have all kinds of versions- from simple to very sports specific. Ive had a Polar for 6 years now- I just replace the batteries when needed. And I just replaced the chest strap/receiver recently. I did hear of someone who bought a version of one at Kmart or wallmart for under $30- and for the sake of…

Welcome to the MFP family!
-
I have a hard time not going over my calories every day (1390)- and that inlcudes eating back my excercise calories (sometimes 400-600 more) - so I can not relate. However- I am a mom- and have breastfed before- so that i CAN relate to. I would say try protien shakes a few times a day to up your calories. I even keep…
-
Yea- not a fan of "in the ear" either. I have a paid that have foam bids that sit just inide the ear and a piece that goes around my ear - that works best for me!
-
When my husband and I were on a low carb diet- we always did canned chili over turkey hot dogs- no bun for my husband and I, a bun for our son. Then I served a bid salad before dinner and sometimes some sweet potato fries.
-
Agreed- unless you need to watch your sodium- I say they are way better than the drive thru! I like to buy the Man N Cheese or Alfredo and then add tuna for protien-Nummy! Good for you for taking time to get healty with your busy schedule! It will give you the energy you need! Hopefully you can slow it down in June! Good…

I made this for my family and it was a HIT! I have even done a non- noodle variation and served it over low fat biscuits! Both are delicious! Thanks for sharing!

Welcome! This is really a great resource and accountability tool!
-
Welcome! Yes, tracking the calories helps keep you accountable! I try to even track a cheat meal, or even an entirely bad day- just to remind myself of the long term consecuences of eating like that every day. I love that when you close out your day it tells you hnow much you will wiegh in 5 weeks if you ate like that…
-
I have a Polar and use it when I excercise. Ive had it 5 years and I get a new battery when I need it- and just replaced the chest strap piece for the first time. I did do the Body Bugg for about 6 months last year. It worked well- but I literally got an indent in my left bicep from wearing it so much and when I worked…

Tracking the intake and output helps you get a grasp on whats really going on! You will love it! Sometimes you will hate it! :) NEVER SURRENDER!
-
Enjoy yourself- in moderation- and bring healthy options too! And get a work out in beforehand so you have some extra calories to use up! Have fun!
-
You need to put your self first at least SOME of the time! Man, My kid is 15 and I make him go to bed at 9:30pm. Even when he was a baby I put him to bed by 9pm- so I could work out 9-10pm, take a shower and get to bed. Kids need at least 10 hours of sleep when they are young- and you need at least 7 if you hope to be in…

Water mostly. Here is a trick for nummy water- Take a pitcher and put in cut up lemon and orange- then add water- and let sit in the fridge for awhile. Adds delicious flavor. Try other combinations too- like lime and cucucmber. I also make homemade ice tea in pitchers- using flavored teas (ie Tazo Passion Tea) and Truvia…

Sorry to hear about this! Its always crazy when the people who love us dont want us to be happy! Change is hard for men! I run into resistance with my husband on other issues- not fitness and health- but things like my hair style and clothes. Any kind of resistance is hard- becuase it keep us from living up to our full…

Sounds Delicious- cant wait to try it!
