This is an excellent suggestion! :heart:

HAHAHA! YOU are the funny one. I think that's sweet too...something you both can enjoy. :wink:

My friend Midgekin and myself are going to Disneyland!!! We totally can't wait. I know it sounds so cliche but we haven't been for years and I, personally, can't wait to be able to sit in one of those roller coaster seats and not feel like I'm gonna have a seat shaped butt when the ride is over. Yay for the magic kingdom!

Awesome! I've been with MFP for about 5 weeks and it's the best thing that has happened to my diet. Keep it up!:happy:

Hmmmm, I wish I could tell you an exact site to go to but I haven't done the research yet. I have seen certain sites that give you a list of common exercises (like jumping rope) and the calories burned for each one. If you want something long term, though, get yourself a heart rate monitor that also calculates calories…

Don't ya just LOVE :heart: this site! Good job!

Haven't weighed myself in a week, but at last weigh in I lost 13lbs!

I HAVE tried them and they are actually delicious. I've only tried the Tangy Tomato Ranch but YUM! I put the nutrition info below in case anyone was curious. Thanks Niccole! Nutrition Facts Serving Size 1oz.(28g/About 12 Crisps) Servings Per Container 6 Amount Per Serving Calories 130 Calories from Fat 50 % Daily Value*…

Exactly. That's what bites about those drinks...all that sugar. :noway: Freshly made is definitely better. Stivia is a great natural sweetener (even better than Splenda).:heart: It works great with warm tea but seems to have a little trouble dissolving completely in cold tea. I would make sun tea like mydogmesa2 suggested…

Sweet! Keep it up! :drinker: Now imagine if you exercised on top of eating healthy...you'd lose so much more! I used to be afraid of the scale but now it only gives me good news. :flowerforyou:

I haven't tried Alli but I did think about it. That is until I read a brief pamphlet on it which stated that many people will basically have to continue using it after they've reached their weight loss goals. If not, they stood the chance of gaining the weight back. This kinda scared me because I really don't want to…

:flowerforyou: Nice to Meet ya! I've been on the site since the beginning of January and am in love. :heart: Really, though, this has given me the motivation needed to succeed. I'm trying to get everyone I know wrapped up in MFP! :bigsmile:

Great Heidi! Now you can't let us down and we won't let you down. :) What is your reward for meeting the goal? Midgekin and I have decided on a movie and bowling. Each challenge we up the reward...and the punishement. Our punishment is, when we weigh in at the end of two weeks, if we don't reach our goal we have to drop…

Why thank you, shurl. :smile: Glad to hear I'm passing on my love for sugar free pudding. If you like the jiggly kind of jello, here is a wonderful combination: Cranberry (preferred but they usually only have it during Christmas) or Strawberry sugar free jello. Mandarin Oranges (canned in their own juice or light syrup)…

YUM! For a giant serving like that to have almost 800mg of soduim doesn't sound too daunting to me. Especially since a can of healthy request soup has just as much if not more!. This is still an indulgence, but to have a healthy recipie for chili fries is awesome! Thanks. :drinker:

I totally agree with the thrift store idea. You could find a nice pair of jeans or other casual pants for as little as 2 bucks! My question is, how fancy are these dresses? Are they for a more formal event or do you, personally, just feel overdressed in them? I love dresses and skirts and there are many ways to dress them…

Well, I'm a few days late on my post but that's okay, right? :) Midgekin and I did great! We both exceeded our challenge goals. Midgekin at -7 lbs and myself at -8 lbs! Our new challenge for the next two weeks is to lose 4 lbs and 3 inches (weather they be on the waist, bust, thighs or arms). :heart: :heart: :heart:…

Definitely! AND, has anyone else discovered the power of Sugar Free Jello? I've become very inventive with it, by adding different fruit combinations and making it fizzy with tonic water or diet sprite. ALSO, the chocolate pudding is Da BOMB! This totally satifies my sweet tooth when I'm craving those rice crispy…

One more thing that I've noticed is that you need to eat most of your calories in a day. Your body will go into starvation mode if you don't and will start storing that fat for a rainy day. Many people have mentioned that you should continue to eat all day (about 5 or six "meals") to keep your metabolism running strong.…

So so true! I LOVE this site. I am more aware now than ever about what I am putting in my mouth. Being able to record it and to have online support is priceless. Thank you MFP! I'll find out tomorrow how much I've lost in a 3 week period and I can't wait. I definitely notice a difference in my jeans and that's really what…

Hello, All! Well, our 2 week weight loss challenge is almost at an end! Hopefully we were all able to avoid those bumps in the road. Tomorrow is the weigh in so good luck to everyone! I will post Midgekin's and my results on Saturday morning so that we can also see how everyone else did. Again, Good Luck!

So much awesome information! I eat flax seed and/or oil almost every day. I was aware of some of its beneficial qualities but this makes me feel even better about adding it to my diet. Thanks!

The Body For Life version is very good as well. I personally LOVE this recipie and am glad that someone has figured a way to make substitue mashed potatoes. :) I have also tried this recipie by adding one (1) red potato to the mix. I don't feel as bad because it's just one potato added to a serving for 4 and it really…

A friend of mine found a really excellent site called www.thedailyplate.com It has almost EVERYTHING in it and the nutrition info is free. This works best for me if I've decided to eat out. I can pretty much find any dish on that site. Good luck!

So many fantastic people! I need to lose about 100 but have set my goal at 70. This way I will be at a comfortable weight and the total doesn't seem so bad. I definitely agree with choosing little goals. For instance, I'm trying to lose 2.5 lbs by Friday and so far it's working! Good luck. :)

Pilates is the BEST for tummy fat. At least it's proven to be that way for me. I only have to do it for a week and it shows almost immediate results. I, however, lost the DVD that I had and can't remember what it was called. I recently purchased one from Target that SUCKS. Does anyone know of any good Pilates DVDs?

Ooooo! I'm so excited to try this. Thanks so much for introducing me to it!

I would say about 2-3 times a week if I forget to bring my lunch to work. It's just me and my fiance so sometimes eating out is easier when we're exhausted after a full days work. However, since I've started on this site we are cooking A LOT more at home. Lunch usually leads me to Subway. Midgekin and I split a black…

Yay, Kimber. I LOVE TJ's. They have an excellent bag of frozen edemame. If you've never had it or heard of it before, I'm sure you'll love it. It's soy beans and they sell them in the shell and out. Personally I like them in the shell. I would also get a bottle of their Kosher Salt which is perfect to sprinkle on top.…

Sweet! We can do it. I will be posting the results on the 25th so please let us know how you're doing. Good luck, Sistah!
