Shrimp has a lot of protein. I buy it frozen, pre-cooked from wal-mart. It's my go to snack between lunch and dinner.

I'm somewhat new to the forums. However, if I understand this right, each round is a month long. Since it's still early in the month, I'm going to join in. I usually only weigh myself on Mondays, when I weigh myself daily, I get defeated because the loss isn't happening quick enough. But I'm will to try this and see where…

I haven't been walking but hope to soon, but the confusing thing is that I am losing weight. I going to say it has something to do with a lower calorie intake but I can't be sure since I haven't been tracking. So that's my next step - to start tracking again. Our youngest turned 16 on Wednesday and promptly went for his…

WOW ! that's a PERFECT hit parade - I'm going to add it to my ipod! thanks so much!

Thanks for the well wishes. I'm doing really well now. I have 2 Dr apts this week to tell me that I am in fact, doing well and this is all behind me.

Well, I'm back. I had that robot procedure on my kidney and I've been good for almost a week. I haven't exercised in about 2+ so I was worried that the lbs would find their way back, but I am soooo happy to say that they didn't. I didn't loose any weight last week but I didn't gain any either so as far as I am concerned…

Happy Monday (afternoon) ! I haven't been on in quite a while, between work and being sick I haven't had the time or energy. I haven't walked in the last, week? but I still managed to lose 1lb. I hope to walk tomorrow now that my energy is back up. It is a struggle to lose the weight but I'm happy with my results so far,…

Happy Saturday to you all, I'm not usually off on a Saturday but I have a baby shower to go to and then later dinner with friends. It's going to be a challangeing day of eating out. I didn't walk yesterday - I had so much to do. Last night at about 9:55, I was sitting at the table doing some crafty up grades to the baby…

Well I worked last night and didn't get home until after one. So I slept in and didn't walk :ohwell: I was just too tired. I weighed myself and found I gained a pound. I thought I would. I checked the pie chart on my nutrition and found that about 75% of my caloric intake is from carbs. I wish it could seperate the good…

Just got back from my walk - took me longer 35min instead of 30 but that's ok at least I did it- I wasn't going to. I know why it took me longer, 1/2 way throguh I heard my body SCREAMING at me - " YOU MEAN WE ARE DOING THIS E V E R Y D A Y !! :noway: " My calfs and ankles were protesting too, I'm guessing it's because of…

:heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: IPOU!!!

I love people watching on the boardwalk. I'm always amazed at what people will wear in public! :wink: Have fun and wiggle your toes in the sand for me, I so miss it !!

:flowerforyou:

IPOM = I'm Proud Of Myself. I've been posting - IPOU = I'm Proud Of You - on others people's posts. Have a great day

I P O M ! ! ! Whish I could change the font size on that !! Good Morning Friends! I don't know if this is possible, but I weighed myself this morning because I was curious as to how much weight I gained after going out to dinner with friends last night. I lost 2 lbs!! ?? I was careful and didn't eat my entire meal, I cut…

I should have added, I'm getting in the pool now to take the stress of my back. :wink: Oh-

Melissa, where in South Jersey are you, I lived in Barnegat for 5 years about 30 years ago. I'm originally from Totow and hubby is from Clifton.

WEll, just back from my walk - It was harder today because of my back but I did it. I also added an element, the first mailbox I came to I held my stomach in until I got to the next mailbox, then I let it out walked to the next one then held it in and so on. So basically I'll be sore later today and probably tomorrow.

Happy Hump Day friends!!! I really dislke that term - Hump Day - don't know why, maybe because it rhymes with lump and that's how I feel most days. Not any more though! I slept in this morning - 9am!! haven't walked yet, but couldn't resist weighing myself. let's leave it at that... I'm going to try to walk in a few…

Good morning everyone - I just got home from work and I'm exhausted. but I had to log my dinner in so here I am. I'm about to head to bed, my grizzly is blissfully sawing logs but I'm too tired to care. The last two days I've had an interesting problem, I've had just a hair over 200 calories left over each day. I've been…

That is a fabulous idea - I live in TEXAS and though it's been cooler (upper 90's) this summer than last, it's still hot. Which is one of the reasons why I drag my big old butt out of bed at around 7-8am and walk before doing anything. My problem is that my husband is part of the "thermostat police" :grumble:

Just finished my 20 min 1.2 mile walk today. I am sooo thankful for the clouds and cool breeze. I almost didn't walk today but forced myself to do it. My husband didn't walk with me because the DISH repair man is here so I walked to music on the IPOD, which helped as much, a nice quick beat to keep up with worked just as…

:sad: I was all set to walk another mile.2 tonight but it started to rain. Well it is acutally a downpour.The lightening was so bad you could hear it sizzle. The winds kicked up and blew the chairs into the pool and we had hail. So, nope no walking for me tonight. The lights keep flickering and I'm hoping they go out so I…

Hi, I ststard today s well. I just finished my 1.2 mile 20 min walk. I did weight Watchers about a year ago and lost 14 lbs. in about 8 weeks. I felt very good and my clothes were getting baggy, THEN we went on vacation, THEN my Mom came for the summer and cooked, THEN we went on a cruise - THEN I gained it all back and…
