I'd try surfing and kiteboarding lessons in Hawaii. And then go to a nudie beach with my husband ; )

thanks! I am not opposed to adding more calories, Im just unsure how many more to add. Some days I get in some great exercise, and some days I work and some days I am a sloth. Is eating back my exercise calories enough or should I just add more everyday? I am going by what MFP tells me and that is 1200 calories a day,…

I often work nights. I just bring tomorrows breakfast with me to work. I have a snack around midnight ( fruit or lowfat muffin and cheese) and eat " breakfast" around 3-4 am...then go home and go to bed without eating around 8:30.

I make pizza dough in the bread machine. super easy and you can just pop your ingredients into the recipe thingy and it will tell you how many calories are in each serving. I dont use oil or anything. Most of the calories come from the flour. and then I add in some italian herbs, garlic into the dough before it mixes. For…

Im up...230 here...night shift : )

Wow. What an affect it is having on your kids. You can tell how excited they are to have you be able to participate more and enjoy doing it. Way to go. You are inspiring, as one of my main reasons for losing weight is exactly what you described, my kids are having a wonderful time with their dad as I sit back and have to…

I find it terribly irritsting when she calls them "buddy" and then goes on to say she would do anything to get abs like her "buddy" in the green behind her. I keep thinking well quit talking and get down and do ab work like the rest of us, you are Jillian Michaels for effs sake!" LOL

Hi, welcome, your profile page says you are 23?

I work shift work too. The best advice I can give is "plan". Log your food into MFP the day before and pack your food with you. Fruit, veggies and dip sandwiches (quartered or in halves so you dont scarf down the whole thing at once) . I make home made muffins ( they take no time to make and have 120 calories in them_ and…

I log it under circuit training ( general) 15 minutes for 180 calories. Im sure its a bit more but wanted to be safe.

Hi! \I started yesterday and hope to do it again tonight. I was wondering what weights they use in the 1st circuit. 3 or 5lbs. goal is to do it for 30 days consecutively.

I'm curious, what does she suggest that you chant? I need all the help I can get ; )

We should make this a "group" I have a hard time finding it on here and keeping track of progress.

I'll be the oldest so far to post at the ripe old age of 33. My current weight is 205.5, and my goal is to stick with this until my birthday at the end of July. Giving myself 12 weeks to see what I can do. I'll send you a friend request now, and we can keep each other motivated!

You can add me! I'm out in BC, Vancouver Island.

Bahahahahaha! Both burn equal calories. Muscle confusion!

anyone? Hmmm....

Just to clarify my original question. I measured out 1/2 cup dry oatmeal, eyeballed what I thought was a good amount of water, added it to MFP diary, went back to eat it and realized I now had a cup of oatmeal due to cooking and wondered if I could eat the whole thing or just half...that was all

me too!

I would!

I'm in! May 5 - CW - 206.5 GW - 196 Race is on!! Woop-Woop!

Thats awesome!

Hi all, I'm new to this group (LPN) and relatively new to MFP (8 days). I'm doing my first night shift tonight while on MFP diet program . I've decided to eat my dinner within my allotted calories before I go to work tonight and then bring my " breakfast" with me ( probably eat it around 4am) and 2 snacks (oranges), which…

Me too : ) Kindda sorry I asked :laugh:

Wholey Moley, thanks all. 1/3 cup dry =120 calories...i cooked with water. It ends up doubling when cooked. if what I cooked is 2 portions, its 60 calories a portion...not too shabby.

Amazing the difference! Great Job! Congratulations!

I have a binge every once in awhile too. I think of it like this. Its ok to go out every once in awhile, go to a party, eat the appetizers, have a drink or 2 too many, do some innocent flirting, have a good time and go home and sleep it off...no harm done. But if you do it everyday you become a fat, alcoholic, tramp ; )…

I've been wondering the same thing.

Mmmm. today I had french toast. 1pc ancient grains bread - 120 cal 1 egg - 70 cal sprinkle of cinnamon into the egg - 2 cal 100% pure maple syrup - 100 cal coffe with mil and sugar - 32 cal 2 glasses of H20 =324 cal

Ooooo...I can eat them ; ) Ususally what happens though is I run out of "day" If I am busy at work or running around for the kids and dont get home until late, I just dont think its wise to try and get 700 calories in right before I go to bed. And I usually dont have the energy to be bothered to cook anything.
