I really want to try one of these devices like a bug or a fitbit but I don't want to have to pay a perpetual subscription fee to get the best use of it.

Bumping for more replies. I see a lot of mentions of the Polar FT4 and the FT40. I want a more accurate count of my exercise calorie burn. I have the Garmin 305, but that calculates outdoor calories.

The first time I got fat was about 10 years ago. I was dating a guy much larger than me who loved eating out - especially at buffets. Once I realized how much weight I gained I was able to get in off in about 4 months with a Prevention recipe magazine and an overnight gym membership. The magazine taught me how to modify my…

Thanks for this. I tried to fast yesterday for a doc appt and ended up famished, weak & eating before the appt anyway. TOM was not a good time to attempt a fast. What impact does TOM have on weight?

bumping for the holiday crowd

do you recall what you ate those days? You can still log it. Sometimes I have to jot things down on a sticky note to enter later.

My join date is 2 years ago because I used to use DietPower to track my diet/exercise but I had to keep handwritten notes & log everything so that I could enter it on DietPower on my home computer at the end of the day. MFP was internet based w/mobile phone access & it was free so it was a better option. My log was created…

When i was pregnant.

Buy a very expensive designer handbag at my goal weight. I already have it picked out. I can picture myself in it in a new suit, with my heels, my hair freshly done & my new bag. I'm going to do a half day spa service at the Elizabeth Arden/Red Door when I am halfway to my goal.

2012 Plan Cherry Blossom 10 miler (DC)- April Marine Corps Fredricksburg Half (VA) - May Baltimore Half (MD)- Oct. Marine Corps Marathon (DC) - 1st marathon I am searching for a fun run like a rock and roll or a disney run.

NOW! I have some big eating days coming up and I have already entered them in my food diary so that I can work around them - exercise, load up on bulky vegetable calories - in the preceding days. I'm going to one of my favorite restaurants that I visit once a year at the end of the month & I am going to have steak, pomme…

My big December housework goal is organizing the master closet & decluttering the coat closet.

We can send our Miis for a meetup. I know that Miis can travel through the mingle feature, but I have never done it.

EA Sports Active 9 week challenge - ending 12/30 runner's world holiday streak - 1 mile per day everyday through new year's day 2012

You can get a lot of volume thats filling and taste good with an omelette loaded with veggies. Try 3 egg whites (sometimes I blend in 1/2 a yolk) your favorite veggies - spinach, mushrooms, onions, green peppers are good, a sprinkle of low fat or fat free feta or cheddar & top with a tomato slice. If you must have meat add…

Eating away from home - shopping, office goodies, birthday dinners, holiday parties, etc. Even though I know all the strategies I have not done well with making good choices in this area. I typically go for whatever I want & not what's best for me. Making time to exercise

My upcoming annual physical has been like a bucket of cold water in the face. Baby weight is no longer an excuse because I gained 19 pounds since last December when the baby was 5 months old.:noway: I keep seeing myself at the physical trying to explain to the doc why I'm heavier than the day I gave birth & all the excuses…

Great job!

I used to love my group classes but besides that I really liked being left alone when I was working on the machines so that I could focus on the weights or read my magazines on the cardio machines. Going to the gym to spend time talking to people seemed like a waste of my gym time.

Why don't you start a group here for support with links to articles and suggestions for staying dry? There are probably a lot of drinkers here who are keeping it dry this holiday season for a lot of different reasons.

Ending week 5 of my second round of the 9 week challenge. The challenged ends 12/30. I will complete this round with no missed workouts.

Congratulations! As someone whose scale currently speaks and says "that's obese" I know this must be a great day for you. :smile:

Is there a group for this? I just read about. I'm going to start today.

Great job! Thank you for sharing.

Saute spinach, tomatoes, onions - sprinkle with a little italian seasoning & parmesan or feta cheese I also dump frozen spinach into stews that are slow cooking overnight with lots of veggies like turkey vegetable chili or curry black beans & chicken
