you're right 8 cups is 2 liters, if you can drink more, Do! if you can't, or if it makes you feel sick, don't.

London here! I've been here for a long time, but i haven't logged anything in ages. I just joined a gym, so might as well jump on here, too! <3

Thanks! it was absolutely fantastic! now there's portraits up, too! we made everyone get their picture taken in their costume :) http://www.lfpress.com/news/2011/10/17/18838501.html right from the very beginning we knew we weren't going to do the same old thing. so it' was a dream come true!

I'm actually form London, Canada :)

Thanks everyone! <3 it was as much planning as a regular wedding! we didn't have any flowers and had mexican food for dinner. it was beautiful and fun and making everyone dress up in a silly costume made everyone not so uptight. it was so amazing!!

Yes! it was a Halloween wedding! we got everyone to dress up in the costume of their choice! it was a blast and everyone had a great time!

I'm 5'4 210, 26, and no kids, I'd like to get down to 180. I'm lazy, un-motivated and I don't eat well. I'm using MFP to hold myself accountable for everything I eat. it's hard to do on weekends because I'm hardly ever near a computer. that's where I fail.

women's multi vitamin and a fibre supplement. Sometimes I take royal jelly when I'm a little low on the mood spectrum :)

not sure abot the water, because you should be excreting it (sweat, urine, feces), but the food does take a few days to show up.

Awesome! thanks Ladies!! I'm getting married in 79 days, I don't think I'll see too much change by then, but there will be a bit at the very least! I LOVE the look of women who have muscle! every time I see one I admire her for working so hard! I can't wait to be one of those women! I also don't have any equipment other…

there's no easy answer, it takes a long time. I smoked for 3 years and quit in March 2009. I still can't run, I can jog though (I don't do it often) because she is exercising every day I honestly don't think she'll gain that much weight. I gained weight because I replaced the cigarettes with food. Really though, how long…

I agree. indulge. you are NOT a bad person. I'm having Tuna casserole tonight. that's MY guilty pleasure. pasta, cheese, and tuna.

I usually shop at thrift stores, but I find sizing varies by brand. sometimes it is a little bit irritating that I fit a size12-18 but I try on EVERYTHING that I think might fit and just buy what looks and feels good :)

Monday-Friday this is my routine I usually slip on the weekends :( 05:00 wake up get dressed 5:15 eat breakfast 5:30 make lunch, gather things for work 5:50 leave for work (I ride my bike to work in the spring /summer/ fall) 6:20 get to work and start work, fill up water bottle (I usually drink between 5 and 15 glasses of…

Awesome! I've just recently learned some of those, I've been on here on and off but hopefully this time is for good! I now know that even if I have a "bad" day I should log everything anyway, that way it just doesn't disappear. you're doing great! 10 lbs in a month?!? that's incredible!

honestly not exactly sure.. the website is www.morningbananadiet.com it lists all of the 'rules' with it. this morning a single banana and a glass of room temperature tap water actually filled me up. I made my journal public, so you can see it. I think the bananas I had were bigger than what MFP said, so I had 2 (one at…

I'm 5'4 and have always been big. My ultimate goal weight is 170, though everybody(on here, and society, not anyone I actually know) thinks it should be 140. the last time I was 140 was when I was 16.. I think I've done quite a bit of developing and growing since then.

I LOVE Friday Eve! I already worked out today, so i'm going to work until 1:30, and then go home and work on stuff for my booth at the flea market this weekend, then make dinner and clean up! maybe watch a movie in there somewhere :) Thanks for asking!

to make a nice dinner for hubby, cuddle up on the couch, watch a movie, maybe have some drinks and have some "alternte" cuddle time after :wink:

For this Friday Eve, I woke up late, got to work on time, so for now work and study while i'm here, and then going to check out some rental space at a weekend market, and then working out after I get home, then making dinner and hanging out with hubby and crafting! Life ROCKS! Happy Friday Eve everyone!

you're getting married on the 8th of October? I'm getting married on the 15th! I'm doing this for my wedding, too. i'd like to be more fit, and obviously lose a few pounds, too. i've already bought my dress, but it's adjustable :) Good luck!

Woot! I'm from London, ON too!! Represent! bahaha

they're good breadded and baked. 350 for 20 minutes, flip and cook another 10. I'm sure you could poach them, too.

I crave protien too. i usually head for beef jerky or nuts but a boiled or fried egg satisfies me too. it's odd, but nice, cause it's not that 'empty' feeling after binging on cookies.

yay you! I've had to do this a few times to my own husband... He's getting the picture though.

peraps change up your workout routine a bit. our bodies get used to doing the same things all the time. maybe one day go for a run, the next day go for a walk. i have found doing interval walking/jogging has worked out pretty good for me. or you could even buy a workout DVD... I like those, too. Good luck Girl! Stick with…

Just stick with it girl!! no cheating!! you still have 3 months! incorporate some strength training into your days along with a LOT of cardio! also, this is something I found out yesterday, don't forget the sunscreen! nothing is a worse setback than having a giant burn across your shoulders. so Sunscreen and lots of water.…

I don't actually have kids, and his laziness is exactly why! he does help me out a lot more than he used to. I pay half the bills. he pays the other half. I do all of the cooking, otherwise it would be pizza pops every night. i clean up from dinner, or else it wouldn't get done. i do the laundry, he's supposed to put it…

I REALLY hat how it's more socially acceptable for a man to be fat than a woman... women 'have' to be skinny and beautiful ALL of the time to be accepted. not men... i don't know about you ladies, but i also feel the burden of a relationship is a major stress factor... we have to work full time to help pay the bills, we…

it works! Woo!
