It is my go to breakfast...with cut up melon and strawberries! It's my favorite when fresh fruit is in season!

Couldn't resist it any more...finished off the kids Kraft Mac n cheese last night...for almost 1000 Cal...but it fit into my day and I won't be craving that again anytime soon!

April 1st weigh in: 155 May 1st weigh in: June 1st weigh in: July 1st weigh in: August 1st weigh in: September 1st weigh in: Ultimate goal: 135 gw, 135 by September 1.

Thanks for the encouragement! I did w1d2 today and feel like I am fetting back in the swing of things....just taking it super slow to avoid any injuries by trying too much too soon!

When I get started I eat lots of carrots, apples, popcorn, etc. ....things that are low cal, high fiber that make me feel full longer .....and tons of water! Best of luck!

I am back to mfp after an extended break....originally lost 30 lbs with healthy eating and exercise. ...then life got in the way amd I gained about half the lbs back :( I have learned that I cant maintain without mfp as it keeps me accountable! Add me if u would like some more friends! I log everything and have an open…

Bump....want to check out some of these websites when I get home

Starting over...."graduated Sept 2013" but then had surgery and then started a new job and haven't ran since :( completed w1d1 this morning before work....at 2:30am....hoping to find the motivation to keep getting up early enough to run!

I successfully did c25k a little over a year ago...I was able to complete the entire program as designed....at the time I started I was already pretty fit but running had always been a challenge! I just started again after being exercise free for almost a year due to surgeries and new job .... this time it was hard!!!!…

I've been trying to save room for at least one good really bad for you meal a week!! I'm in!

I just upped my calories today and decided that starting Monday I am going to start lifting as well! Add me :) And yes...I eat lots of bacon!! CJ

BUMP...need to reread later :)

I am a Michigander at heart! (Moved out of the state 7 years ago)...I am on everyday and try to comment on my friends pages daily! Feel free to add me as well :) CJ

First of all...Go Blue (even though I do live in Nebraska...born and raised in Michigan!) When I go on road trips we stock the cooler with lots of fruit and veggies and healthy dip like hummus. I also like to take crackers like wheat thins for something salty/crunchy! For meals we often have turkey wraps with lettuce and…

I didn't eat before my 5 am workouts for the first few weeks...but then I started to not be able to work out as hard as I would like so I have a protien shake as I leave the house the breakfast when I get home.

Thanks guys...I will try out these ideas!!!!

I also have a boddy bugg and I love it! I rarely wear sleeveless shirts so I am able to hide it under my clothes and nobody knows! I think that it is really accurate as I have been able to lose every week that I have worn it...which has been off and on for over a year!

I do this all the time at the gym!! I read it in an article once and thought that is a great idea...and it really works!

I'm in the same boat as well! Going from 160 to 129! Feel free to add me and we can go on this journey together! CJ

I am about the same myself...5'6", SW was 160 and I my GW is 129. Feel free to add me, I am on everyday and love to comment on my friends walls!!

Great advice!!!

I have something in common with both of you! I had emergency appendectomy surgery in April and I now have a hernia that will hopefully be taken care of very soon (see the surgeon on Friday). I hope that you are able to get back up and running shortly...I know that I am not looking forward to another recovery period this…

Pizza has always been one of my trigger foods...every week my family would order pizza and I would have one all to myself...I would literally eat until I was ill, but I couldn't stop myself. Now we buy our pizza frozen and I always make sure that one is a thin crust and on that day I usually eat less during the day so that…

I have one as well...I pay monthly and I believe it is $6.95...totally worth it! The new software is really great and it links with MFP! I Love my body bugg!

Calorie counting works...and for me it is the easiest way to lose weight. As for running I have been doing the C25K program...9 week program that takes you from short runs up to a 5K. I have had really good luck with this! Good luck on your new journey!

I know it's not the popular response but I love soda...I drink 2-3 cans of diet soda a day and have had no problems losing...sometimes it is what I need to satisfy my sweet tooth...better than grabbing a snickers!!

I have been logging everyday for 50+ days...and I log everything...the good, the bad and the ugly!! Feel free to add me! :)

That's funny...I'm the opposite...i can rock out on the elliptical for 60minutes plus, hard and at a high resistance, but then I get on the tredmill I have the hardest time...when I first started the C25K I could barely do the 3 minute runs!! I am slowly able to increase my workouts on the tredmill but it has taken all of…
