11 weeks here and feel the same. Not happy about where I started so the thought of packing on more pounds is SCARY. I just don't want any of the complications that can come with being unhealthy during pregnancy, like gestational diabetes. I would love the support! Anyone can add me! Is there a group started? Maybe we…

Walmart's Marketside salsa is pretty low in sodium I believe. It tastes very fresh!!

Interested! Can you send me the link?

hmm - I am the opposite. I would much rather see things as 1 cup - I don't do grams...

... And ditto on the WHOLE eggs!!! Don't take the delicious nutrition out!

Eggs! I always crave eggs! I scramble two whole eggs and wrap them in a Mission Carb Balance tortilla with a couple tablespoons with fresh salsa or fry one egg in a little olive oil and make a sandwich with 2 pieces of whole wheat toast. I've tried to eat oatmeal or cereal and I just can't get into it! Love my eggs...

I just found this online... mine calculated to 70. :) How to Calculate Your Protein Needs: 1. Weight in pounds divided by 2.2 = weight in kg 2. Weight in kg x 0.8-1.8 gm/kg = protein gm. Sources: American Heart Association. "High-Protein Diets." Accessed: Sept 22, 2009.…

And you could DEFINITELY write that book!!

AMAZING!! You are a true inspiration!

Hi - nice to meet you! I'm also Sweatin' for the Wedding! When is yours? Mine is next March... I really like MFP. I lost 60 lbs before logging my food and running. I'm trying to get back into it now after falling off a little bit. LIFESTYLE CHANGE!! So, I have to keep sweatin' AFTER the wedding! :) Good luck!!

5'5" - started out at 216, size 16/18 NOW - 175, size 12

A - MAZING!!!!!!!

I agree with all those who have posted that it does nothing to teach you long term healthy eating. That is why everyone gains the weight back. Everytime someone tells me what new "fad" thing they are doing to lose weight, I always ask them - are you going to do it forever? If not, won't work... "Are you going to have…

Awesome - you are a true inspiration!!!!!!

Lately it has been Katy Perry - Wide Awake - nothing like hearing that at 5:30 in the a.m. when it's pitch dark outside!

So happy for you! Congratulations!!!! Rock that bra! :)

Galas!! Had one today... I LOVE APPLES!

You are amazing and exactly the reason for my profile pic - "who will you inspire today?" You have inspired all who have read your post and you should be so pround of yourself. You are living proof that hard work, determination, and a lifestyle change really work. Congratulations on your success!!!!! You look amazing!

Thank you for sharing! Great list and happy to say I not only eat most but enjoy them!!!

Amazing!!! Thank you for the motivation. My profile pic is "Who Will You Inspire Today?". You inspired me!!!

Do you like fresh fish? The rainbow roll is awesome! Different varieties of fresh fish with avacado. Try with brown rice!!

I don't understand why it mattered??? It bothered you so much, you posted about it??

Definitely some sort of circuit training. I recently discovered the biggest loser DVD's and they are awesome for this. Jillian Michael's Shred is only 20 min and you will feel it. The whole thing is geared to burning fat FAST!. Also, buying a medicine ball (like a 6 lb) and doing a DVD - like Gin Miller's ab workout is…

Great job!! Welcome to Onederland!!!!!! :tongue:

Oh - and I rock my high heels... I hear ya on that... girls gotta have her heels. :)

I shattered my ankle about 5 years ago and had to have a metal plate and 10 screws put into my ankle. I was scared it would afftect me for the rest of my life. I don't even think about it now! I run about 4 miles a day (was up to 10 up until Jan) and it rarely bothers me. Every once in a while I will feel a little…

I would think you don't want to stop because you are going to long between meals. I would suggest eating small meals every 3-4 hours. Always eat breakfast within an hour of waking up! I've been doing this for about a year - lost about 50 lbs. This way when you eat, you won't want to overdo it. You'll find that your body…

Welcome welcome!!! Glad to have you here!:happy:

We are right around the same! I started MFP last June at 216 and am now 175! I actually got down to 155 in December but have put back on 20 lbs! :( That's ok - I'm back on it and am trying to focus on how far I've come and not how far I have left to go or how close I was and let it go!! Good luck and great progress so…

AMAZING!!!!! So inspirational...
