  • I bought a Britai and now I drink at least 32 ozs. a day. I can't get enough of it. The waters that you drink have so much sugar don't you think. It also helps me to think of a hot day on a sunny isle where there is nothing to really quench that thirst... WATER. Walk fast and hard. You'll drink that water as if it were…

  • Hi. And welcome to you. I just started MFP last week and I love it. I thought about doing Zumba, but I won't spend the money. I developed my own exercise routine. I walk 4 miles 6 days a week. When I come home, I hop on my Wii Fit. It has everything I need -- yoga, breathing, step, aerobics, running, everything. I also…

I DON'T eat fast food of any kind and have given up red meat except for an occasional lasagna (that I make from scratch). Bring your lunch from home.

  • Hey! Why are you beating yourself up? You may be losing inches. I walk four or five miles at least 6 days a week. Since I am frugal, I opted for Wii Fit as opposed to joining a gym. Try that. Sometimes we need encouragement from friends and family. Instead of taking that car start out walking a little. It doesn't have to…

  • I have been reading up on it, and I am not convinced. At $50 a pop, not FDA approved, I wouldn't. If you are diabetic, it's advisable NOT to use it. If you take any type of drugs, check with your doctor as there are side effects and repercussions. For me, nothing takes the place of learning how to eat properl and exercise.
