This is what we do. And we schedule the automatic transfers for the day after we get paid. That way, we never really miss the money.

peanut butter, apples, bananas, oranges... I like those "soup to go" things, but they can be high in sodium.

Sweet tea. I don't drink it with every meal anymore (I'm not even drinking it on a daily basis) but I refuse to say "I'll never have it ever again" . It is one of my favorite things ever, and if I can fit it in, I'm not going to worry about it.

Sandals St. Lucia... love that place so much!! EDIT: I didn't see earlier that you were taking the "kids" too.. Sandals might be more of a couples resort... I'm not sure.

I'm restarting too. On my 3rd week back. In 2012, I lost 35 lbs and felt awesome! I then went on vacation, started a new job, and got heavy into school and let it slip. I only logged off and on last year. And when I weighed 3 weeks ago, I was within 10 lbs of my original starting weight :( So, here I am, back on the horse!…

pirate - a little bit like Sara Gilbert.. with different hair, of course.

I don't understand. You've lost a substancial amount of weight. You should be thrilled. Actually, it will only slow down from here, as you can't really keep up those kind of numbers every week.

I got a pretty good one for relatively cheap at Wal Mart.

This surprises me... especially that chart on household incomes. It has us in the top 20% but we sure don't FEEL like that!

Oh yes... any kind of "pasta side" bagged or boxed.. love that stuff.

Mine is from my progress picture from back in June or July.. it was right around the time I hit 20 lbs gone. I need to update with a new one.

I had been logging for 3 months before I started here. I did everything on weight watchers online. So, when I started, I just back dated all of my old entries from WW into my MFP log. That way I could still see the record of all of my weigh ins.

None of this sounds like a good idea, just saying..

With me, it's just that I, personally, dislike that brand of humor. I'm not into censoring anything, though. I get offended at some (but not all) of the topics mentioned, so I prefer to just change the channel.

I've never cared for the jokes on Family Guy, but that's just my opinion, it's not my style of comedy. I'm not really able to laugh at things like the Jon Bennet Ramsey "joke" or things of that nature. I don't care if other people watch it and enjoy it... I just do not.

If I'm going to Zumba at the gym, I have to leave straight from work to get there at 5:30. If I'm working out at home, or running on the trail at the park, I'll do it either while my husband gives my son a bath and puts him to bed, or after I've put him to bed. I always work out in the evening, never in the morning. I am…

We waited until we knew he was absolutely ready. He could pull his pants on and off, could climb on and off the potty by himself, would stay dry in his diaper most night, knew when he needed to poop, that kind of thing. We then went to the store and let him pick out his new "big boy" underwear. We got 20 pair.. you're…

Geeze Louise Holy Moly I get seriously dorky.

exactly, or even something like "that's enought, we have to save some to have another time."

Becuase I am supposed to net 1400 calories a day. I burned 851 calories (per my HRM) last night. So.. if I only ate 1400 calories yesterday I would have a net of 549 calories. That's not safe. I have to eat at least some of those back. I had a week or two of overexercising and undereating.. it was not fun, afterwards I was…

I started on the 5th, but I'm only alternating it in between my other activities, not going straight through. I'll only be on my 3rd night tonight, since I'm rotating it throughout the week.

The only time I have an issue with "too much" fiber is with prunes. I LOVE prunes.. and if they are in the house I will eat 5 or more a day.. this makes for a very uncomfortable tummy.

I've lost a cinder block and a guinea pig. Or, as I noticed recently.. one of those huge "double box" cases of Cat Litter.. those things are massive, and I've lost that weight from my body! Woo Hoo!

I first asked my mom for "Nike" shoes and "Calvin Klein" Jeans around Jr High. We weren't very well off, so I was allowed one brand name pair of shoes a year, anything else had to come from places like WalMart. She would find deals on clothes at Sam's Club, TJ Maxx, Etc. so I could have a few brand names that way too. I…

I am, have always been, and will always be a fan of fast food. I keep waiting for that day that it's no longer appealing.. but it hasn't come yet. I don't eat it everyday.. but I could.. if it wasn't terrible for me, I really would eat it every day. I also enjoy TV. I generally get in 1 or 2 hours a night, according to…

I felt this way for a while too. I wasn't even sure I was changing my name until a few weeks after our wedding. However, I wanted to have a unified family name.. and it was either his name, my name, or we made up a new one... I chose his. I like it, it puts my higher up in the alphabet, and I really have no ties to my…

Changing your name is so tedious and frustrating, and in the fact that if you have kids, you'll want to share their last name too... so I don't really see the issue. However I did know a lady that got divorced and then used her ex husbands name as her middle name when she remarried. (They did not have children) Her excuse…

I bet none of that really mattered.. I would think the leading cause of death would have been "wooly mammoth" related.

It takes very little room, you can just push your couch back or whatever, and all you need is one set of dumbells and a mat or thick towel if you have a hard floor.

I workout for larger portions.. I'm never happy with the portion sizes I "should" be eating! Even if it's just a bigger peice of chicken, or an extra piece of fruit.. that's why I work out!
