Feel free to FR me.

Eating healthy and tracking my intake is where my battle is won and lost. I am looking for friends I can be inspired by and learn from. I am willing to look at and share comments on others food diary's actively. I am into eating fairly naturally and shoot for non processed food for a majority of my diet. If your active,…

I have used MFP on and off for years. Lost about 50 lbs and have kept if off for the most part. I am motivated to make another big push and get below the weight I was when I graduated high school. I have bad knees and the doc says the weight must go. I exercise 4 times a week using a HRM and don't post much detail about my…

My bad knees love the Elliptical. I can get some intense HIIT going. I do 5 min warm up and warm down with 90 second intervals for 15 min. The total of 25 min is a great burn and I can use a combination of speed and resistance to really push myself. It works for me and I really enjoy it.

I like this recipe. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/best-black-beans/detail.aspx

Anyone just starting out can make great progress with body weight exercises. I really enjoyed this book and it got me moving. http://www.amazon.com/You-Are-Your-Own-Gym/dp/0345528581/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1291240989&sr=8-2 http://marklauren.com/

Bump - Looking for more active friends.

I have been able to cut down on the frequency but some days just deserve some CC on the rocks. I log it when I do. Avoiding the daily drinking certainly allows me to avoid the extra eating calories and frankly be more motivated.

I found this article last week. I managed to stay off the bottle over the weekend :-). http://www.webmd.com/diet/features/low-calorie-cocktails

I will add you both if that's OK. I am looking for everyday loggers that use their diary that I can interact with.

"I am looking for friends that log in daily, are willing to challenge me, are eager to congratulate me and love to cook and share ideas and recipes. Send me a friend invite if you can do this for me and I will do the same for you in return." Bump... looking for a few more.

Thanks ladies. DietPep thanks for the friend invite.

I have been a member of MFP for awhile. Spent a little time on other sites as well. MFP works best with my new phone. Overall I am setting a goal of 1.5 lbs per week - 78 for the year. I would be happy to friend anyone looking to share motivation, successes and recipes. I am sure that having reasons other than simply…

Fat kid from day 1 checking in..... The site works. Stick with it!

In a non stick pan with a spritz of cooking spray throw 3-4 cups of fresh baby spinach, let it cook with a lid on for 3 minutes. Stir once or so halfway through the cooking time. Hit is with a dose of pepper as you plate it and eat it with an egg white omelet. Yum!

It is the elliptical for me. It is very easy on my bad knees.
