Tonite was a fun night. I have been craving pizza lately. I thought just due to the fact that i am trying to keep control of my calories i would never eat good pizza again. I was wrong!!!! I remembered having delish homemade pizza and it was low cal and high fibre. So I went out and bought the stuff i needed: Whole Wheat…

tonite I macked out on Catelli Smart Spaghettini with Veggie/Meat Sauce, and mixed veggies. I was on the road today and I only ate fresh fruit and veggies all day so I got to "indulge" tonite.

wow girl I hear u!!!!! I understand the hormonal roller coaster all too well. I just cant imagine adding a allergy to it all. Hats off to you for not lopping off someone's ear or punching that car that just about hit your girl. I am proud of how you took the 'high road' (as my counsellor always reminds me to do). Linda

Welcome Danielle! Its great to have you here. WTG onthe starting. You know what your weakness is and now yo are doing what u can to overcome it.

WTG!!! Lookin great!!

Thank you so much! I needed to hear this today. I am going to stay focused today. I can only do one day at a time.

So strange cuz i was just facing exact same issue with the exception that mine are all over my back. I did take benedryl and will have to tough it out today. I did hear that Benedryl Cream was to work well too.

Hey there girl! I am so happy that you are here because it means that you have decided to change!!! For that please celebrate!!! I am also starting to lose weight and to change me. Mini changes are key in weight loss, increase in water, change where you used to eat when eating out, increase in movement, increase in sleep.…

Thank you so very much for sharing this! I so needed to hear this. I am saddened b/c i was in the "nut bag" state and am slowly crawling out of it. I am hopeful after reading this that one day my kids will also have this conversation. Thank you cuz I am now realizing that i am on the right track!!!!! Keep up the great…

Welcome! congrats on both new baby and weight loss. Its wonderful when you find out what works for your body. Keep up the good work. BTW are you nursing?

i went onto this site and plugged in my info and it gave me a 1600 caloric count. I am usually under this but when i stick by it I find that I lose weight very quickly. I also follow the LA Weight Loss of long ago when they taught me the 5,4,3,2,1 diet - 5 veg, 4 fruit, 3 starch, 2 protien & dairy, 1 fat. I mainly follow…

I have noticed that when i increase to more fresh raw veg and increase in water up to 2 litres per day, that i have dropped the weight like crazy. I also decreased my starches and eliminated salt. My body reacted right away, this is day 4 for me and i have lost 5 lbs since i started.

WTG!!!! I love it when that scale moves past that 200 mark. I cant wait, but at least i know that there are others out there who have achieved it and i know that i can also do it!!!!

Sweet job!!!! I am so happy for you! I am also aiming for 179!!! That will be the weight that i was the day i gave birth to my daughter, I was 150 when i got pg with her. My ultimate goal is 150 tho.

Thank you so very much! I am enjoying the change in myself already!

I have to say that I have occassionally lived by this quote. I agree that endorphins definately makes me a much happier person!!

Thats wonderful, I am so happy for you!!!

I am so in the same spot as you, and I just got myself motivated yesterday. I had to decide not to stay home after supper and to stay out and active as possible to keep me from eating. I went and watched my friends son play ball. This way no temptation, and when i got home i read these forums and did some typing, then I…

I am so glad that I brought mine along when i moved out of my ex-husband's place, I know that I will definately be using it more. I agree, that there are so many benefits to having one. I weighed out my food tonite to put it in my list and I found that i had lots of food on my plate and therefore wasnt panicking about…

Thanks everyone for your input, I prob should have been more specific, I am cutting out White - rice, pasta, potatoes, crackers. I am tryin to have as few carbs for the first 2 days as i can. I just ate some sweet potatoes and maybe that will give me a bit of a sugar kick. I am really trying to cut down to only 4 servings…

When I use ground turkey or chicken I fry it in a tiny bit of olive oil and then mix in a jar of low sodium salsa. I put some low sodium taco seasoning in. I mix up a large salad with cucumbers, tomatoes, celery and onions. I cover the salad with low fat or fat free shredded cheddar cheese and then cover it with the warm…
