  • We all have to keep trying, don't we! I'm new too and like what MFP has to offer. Good luck to you!

  • My little guy loves potatoes but veggies, not so much. So I made cauliflower and potatoes and mashed them together--might help you work into the idea if you aren't too sure. And I love a wedge of Laughing Cow cheese mashed in with my cauliflower--yum!

  • That's awesome! I go to the gym, but just the basics--treadmill, elliptical. I'm a little afraid to try the classes. . . should be a goal of mine too. . .

  • I am in the same boat as you. Would love to go more natural and organic, but I'm a little bit of a frugalista! It's hard for me to figure out how to adjust my food budget to even begin--and it just seems overwhelming! My "all or nothing" attitude just can't work here, so I've decided to start small--perhaps pick dairy and…

  • Sounds like you have been doing great! And MFP seems to be a great place to be--I know I am excited about the change. We all can have a few bad days--I know how that goes. I'm a SAHM of three--would love it if you added me!:):flowerforyou:

  • Thanks for replying! My workouts are very basic right now--walking outdoors and at the gym--treadmill, elliptical--run a little. My brother might hook me up with a friend working to be a personal trainer--I think that could really be the thing that get's me moving in the right direction. Have to start somewhere. . .
