What a boost! You have worked hard enjoy the compliment. =-)

There is a group for Shorties.

Such a great idea. I usually repeat "Ok". It is my way of telling myself it will be fine just get thru it.

Put it in a blender with dry ranch dressing and mix it till smooth, great dip for veggies!!

thank you for the extensive list!

My new favorite "salad". Cottage cheese with diced fresh tomato, cucumber, onion, salt & pepper to taste. Very refreshing and about 100 calories for 1/2 cup of cottage cheese plus veggies.

making me HUNGRY!!

Feel free to add me. I am new-ish to the site and have really enjoyed it. I check it several times a day. It is my new addiction. I love to see how my friends have exercised for the day and it keeps me motivated because I DO NOT want to be the one who doesn't post any calorie burn for the day. Also leave my dairy open so I…

I second this response.

have you ever tried soaking cucumbers in a vinegar? I make a salad with cucumbers, onions, and vinegar. You also add some water. I am sure you could google the recipe. It is delicious but a different vinegar flavor than you will find on chips. You could add it to your veggie count.;-)

bump. excited to try this over the weekend.

Hi! I am Melinda and I joined this group to get some new ideas for adding fruits and veggies to my daily menu. Food boredom is the reason I fall off the wagon.

definitely adding this to my menu for next week. YUMMYYYYYY! Thanks for sharing

I am have come to believe that most people have to watch what they eat. There are so few people in the world who are naturally thin. I want to take off some weight but I don't want to starve myself any longer. That is the cycle I had been on before. I have only been logging for a little over 30 days but I believe it helps…

I am super excited to see your starting, current and goal weight because I am 5 ft and starting weight 163 (June 2012) current weight 153 and goal is 115. I would love to see/hear what worked for you.

Bump. I want to see what kind of response you get. I have a fitbit and have considered a HRM too.

I really struggle with the idea of eating back my exercise calories. Looking forward to seeing how it works for you!

bump!! sounds delicious

sending you a request now! Welcome aboard. I am fairly new to the site and love the support I get from my friends.

I have only been on the site for a few weeks and what a difference it makes in this journey of weight loss. I love support and being support. Add me as a friend and anyone else who needs some support feel free to add me as well. Congratulations on your choice to live a healthy life.

LOL! When you hit your goal are you changing it to skinnyass? maybe Greatass?

Sending you a request your way! My dairy is open. You can do this. I love MFP for the accountability.

Sending you a request now. My goal is 40 lbs and I am down 10 since I started and I am down 7 lbs since I started MFP. I love the support and helps me stay motivated.

LOL! BUMP.

Feel free to add me as well. I am several years older than you but was a single parent at one time as well. This site has provided me with great support and if I feel like slacking I look at my "friends" and think if they are doing it then why should I go easy on myself. this is my new facebook. LOL. check it several times…

It is a great site for support. I love being accountable to all of my "friends". They inspire we to keep going when I think about going easy on myself. :)

Great job! You look happy. :)

it is a journey and using this site is really helpful. I am fairly new to the site and love "checking in". Sending request

bump for later.
