Love it! I needed to hear this!

I'll tell her!

Very touching story. Keep up the good work! I'm trying to get my mom to come on this site. I think I almost have her convinced:smile:

You guys are cracking me up! I always log it. I add about 100 calories every time. I need to get a HRM to see how many calories "cleaning" actually burns.

I weigh 10 pounds more now than it says on my driver's license. That was maybe 7 years ago. Not to far off.

Just filled it out! :wink:

Well, I definitely don't drink everyday. Once or twice a week and only a few drinks. I could probably cut back though.

Sure thing!

Fitzie63, just because I want to drink a couple of drinks once or twice a week doesn't mean I have a drinking problem. If that were the case everyone I know has a problem. I don't smoke, are you assuming I smoke because I'm drinking? I'm not that young either, I'm 33. Thanks everyone else for all the tips....now I better…

Hmmm whiskey, I might have to start drinking some whiskey:wink: I will have to try the blueberry beer, yum

Miller Lite is 96 calories and 4.2 % I think I would rather a little more calories for more alcohol.

Okay I just did some research on Corona light and it has 109 calories and 4.5 %. Hmmm maybe I should of got that. I'm so disappointed with my Select 55 I almost want to go back to the store and get something else.

MGD light 64 has 2.8 percent alcohol content not much more than Select 55. I think I would rather drink a regular beer. I wonder if wine has less calories per alcohol content.

I'll look that up.

Nothing compares to having a lot of people doing exactly what your doing. Thanks everyone for all the advice and support!

I agree with all of you. I love having the support and I don't think I could do it without MFP. Happy Thanksgiving!

You can look at mine. I only filled mine out for half the day today because I had Thanksgiving early with my family so I gave myself a half day break but all the other previous days are filled out.

Thanks! Wow, I didn't realize HRM's were so expensive but I will definitely get one because it's a good investment. Is the 4 mile hard? Oh and I know nothing about brands to sports things, ha. Just started working out. Congrats on losing so much weight! That's awesome! Did you lose it all using this site, if so how long…

Thanks everyone! I think I'll get a HRM. Thats the best way to know exactly how much I'm burning. By the way, where do I get one and how much are they?

I always go over my sugars but I don't pay much attention to it. I can eat yogurt and a banana and be over. As long as I'm eating healthy and losing weight I don't worry to much about it.

I know I will make up for it on the weekends. I'm trying not to drink during the week. Yes I don't miss the hangovers and the low blood sugar the next day. It's all about habit.

I haven't had a drink all week, YAY me!

I so relate to everyone on this topic. Cutting back drinking has been really hard for me. I think I'm just in the habit of it.

How do you see other people's food diary? I never see it when I look at people's profile.

All I can say is WOW!

I weigh myself every morning. If my weight goes up I just try to do better that day. I also "weigh in" everyday.

Yeah I was looking at craigslist, they had some pretty good deals. I think I'm leaning more towards a treadmill.

Thanks, I will take all of this advice in to consideration. But I have to say honestly I'm more confused than ever. Half of you say elliptical and half say treadmill. I wish I could afford both. Oh well I'll figure something out.

All good advice!

Thank for all the input! I love this site! I've only been on this site for a few days and it really does make a difference in my journey towards a healthier lifestyle. I'm kind of leaning more towards a treadmill.
