I weigh myself every morning, even though I know "they" say you shouldn't.

Awesome! Thank you for your service to our country!! :smile:

My husband is celiac, so while we are not an entirely GF household (the rest of us still eat bread, etc.), I do have a lot of experience cooking GF. I'll send you a friend request. Some of our favorite products are: Pamela's Baking mixes, Tinkyada pasta, Trader Joe's Brown Rice pasta, Pacific Rim soups, and Canyon…

Welcome to the group! You'll love us! :)

You look great! You are doing an amazing job. And I love your current hair style. Super cute!!

That is one of the things that I loathe about shopping for clothes. I wish that sizes were the same across all brands so there was no guesswork. I have found that the more expensive a brand or store is, the smaller the size that fits me. It's a racquet!! :)

That sounds yummy! We love quinoa AND it's gluten free, so BONUS!! Thanks for sharing.

I love BP too, and go three days a week, never on consecutive days. Just curious, how did you calculate a 500 calorie burn? The calorie burn for Body Pump is a mystery to me, as everywhere I've looked I see different reports as to how much you will burn. I wore a HRM a couple of times, and it showed between 300 to 350 so I…

Thanks for sharing that! I had no idea that I could get that on my iphone!

Jan. 11 - still hanging around the 130 neighborhood.

I am 5'4".

I had thought of that. :)

My husband is celiac. We aren't an entirely gluten free household, though. The rest of us still eat gluten. But, I've learned a lot about cooking gluten free and have tried a lot of products. We like Pamela's baking mix for pancakes, quick breads, etc. Tinkyada is a great brand for gf pasta, and Trader Joe's GF Brown Rice…

I gave up Diet Coke about 6 or 8 weeks ago. I had a 6 can a day habit, and had tried to cut back to three. I finally just gave it up cold turkey. I do allow myself one a week. There are just some meals that "require" a diet coke to go with them (tacos). I am also saving a LOT of money at the grocery store. Now I drink…

You look like a completely different person! Way to go! And I love your short hairstyle. Really cute!

Sounds delicious! I love my Mom's fried chicken. Wonder how this will stack up?

I tried to lose weight by just exercising and it didn't work. I lost a little bit, but not much. Tracking what I was eating was a real eye opener. I didn't realize how much I was eating until I started logging it on MFP. Once I started journaling my food, weight loss became a reality for me.

Both of my boys (12 & 14) go with us to the gym. Sometimes they work out, sometimes they don't. It's up to them.

That's great!! Keep up the good work. It's fun when other people start recognizing you progress!

On Friday I weighed 131.6. Glad to see the scale moving down again after the holidays.

Inspiring! Great job!

Welcome to MFP! Going public works! The accountability and support is key. Good luck!!

Quaker low sugar maple and brown sugar oatmeal with 1 Tbsp. raisins, coffe with sugar free creamer, and the last slice of cranberry orange bread left over from Christmas. 333 calories.

Welcome to the group! Everyone here is really nice and supportive. You'll like us! :wink:

Chocolate is my major downfall. Before MFP, I could eat an entire bag of Dove chocolate miniatures in 24 hours. If it's in the house, I'm gonna eat it. Christmas was so bad (junk food wise). It was everywhere, and I was eating it! The key for me is to not have it around in large quantities. I do allow myself a little sweet…

Look for the cookbook "Deceptively Delicious" by Jessica Seinfeld (Jerry Seinfeld's wife). She came up with all kinds of ways to sneak fruit and veggies into her family's meals without them realizing it.

Hi! I've love Body Pump. I'm in the US, so my weights are in pounds. Warm-up: 10 pounds Squats: 30 pounds Chest: 10 or 15 pounds (been having some shoulder issues, so going lighter) Triceps: 10 pounds Biceps: 10 pounds Back: 15 to 17.5 pounds (again, the shoulder issue) Lunges: 15 pounds Shoulders: 7.5 on the bar, 5 lb and…

45 with 7 pounds left to get to goal. Sending friend request.

I do Body Pump 3 times a week. I love it! I wore a HRM for a couple of classes and it showed a 300 to 350 calorie burn for me.

133, up just a little over a pound.
