i used to get their jack3d. it doesn't actually speed up the weight loss but it helps keep you focused on your workouts and eager to use up energy.

bump

i just want to be able to wear skirts without getting a huge sweat rash on my thighs. i've tried deodorant, powder, stockings. the only thing that stops it is spanx.

such great progress so far!! keep it up--you look great.

whatever works for you. i like MFP bc i can do it anywhere on my phone. i like not paying any money and like that its all thru the internet. with my crazy work schedules (3 jobs) this works for me---find what works for you and you can stick to for the rest of your life. i don't plan on quitting MFP when i meet my goal,…

use coupons! i save a few hundred in groceries every month---ralphs/kroger even gives me coupons for free items bc i buy them a lot. watch extreme couponing and ignore the crazy but pick up the lessons/hints. i live in ag country with fields in every direction so produce is never a problem for me, but i do buy frozen…

yes--drink tons of water. logging everything you eat and how your body/weight fluctuates really helps you see how what you put in changes how you feel. getting a heart rate monitor (HRM) seems to be super helpful, i'm waiting for some paychecks to get mine. i also friended people who were similar to me with regards to…

i did 7 dances on my ps3 move dance on broadway game----super sweaty and had a lot of fun. helped me be way under my calories today :) oh and i found a calorie free caramel dip---yes!

after watching me drop weight and being so happy with this website he joined today <3 now it's gonna be a competition!! GAME ON.

i'm not overly fond of broccoli but i'll def try this recipe. anything to eat more veggies and less carbs for dinner

my bf of 10 yrs helps cook all our meals (and does many of them entirely himself bc i work such erratic hours) and makes sure to measure everything for me. he also encourages hikes, bike rides and gets dragged along to the sporting goods stores so i can buy new dvds, gloves, exercise equipment. he has also paid for our gym…

great job--i always think i'm super busy but you've got me beat! great idea to give away workout dvds on here!

i take a bunch: b12, vitamin c, one for hair/skin/nails, multivitamin, glucosimine, vitamin e, fish oil. sometimes when i have extra long hard workouts i do jack3d or caffeine chews

erratic work schedules (3 jobs) most of the time having to eat whatever they serve you. i spent about 10 years of my life in competition training for swimming and dancing so my eating habits were geared towards that. i love to drink and bake and hanging out with friends always ends up including food---and my friends all…

so great!! hope you treat yourself to something awesome for when he comes back---like all new undies/bras at victoria's secret. new bras in new sizes always make me super happy and my guy appreciates them too. keep up the fantastic work!

i fart in front of my bf---we have jokes/games about farting (nothing gross, kinda like fake yelling at each other for doing it and quoting movies/shows about it) he hates hates hates it when i have to use the bathroom (i drink a LOT of water everyday) while he's in there either showering or shaving but somethings things…

great job---keep it up!

don't stress. just keep hanging out with friends and introduce yourself to people at places you're interested in. my brother met his wife at a karaoke bar. i met my bf of 10 years at a starbucks while hanging out with mutual friends/coworkers. you never know when you'll meet someone so try internet dating, hiking groups,…

one of my closest friends did this---now 21 years old she had been in and out of treatment for eating disorders several times. she would say she couldn't eat whatever we were eating while everyone was hanging out then would binge/purge later when she was by herself. and i stand by what i said earlier, because from my…

ugh, too many kids at that age want to do everything so they try for extremes and it can backfire. you should really see a nutritionist with her to make sure you both realize how much goes into this type of lifestyle/diet. it can be much more expensive than a more traditional diet, especially if the entire family isn't…

p.s. and clue!

labyrinth spaceballs princess bride return to oz mannequin yeah i know, fantasy comedies---what can i say, i luv them!

wow this is a really good idea---gonna work on the list over the next few days and get back to you guys!! reading everyone else's list made me realize how much i've accomplished (and been burnt out on) and what i should really focus on now. sneak peak: be the weight it says i am on my driver's license!! (that's my goal…

i tried looking it up from the local honey farm's website but they didn't have anything listed--and they have about a dozen different types of honey there. sorry, keep googleing??

wow---as soon as all this moving is done and everything is organized i'm starting a bunch of workout videos! simply amazing

you'll get there with the mental stuff, its hard. if it persists you can always read up or see someone about mental body issues--i've had a lot of friends with eating disorders and while they can be serious you can always get help for them. when i've dropped weight in the past (35#--twice!) i always ended up gaining it…

i like slicing/dicing up my fruits so it feels like i'm eating a lot more than i am (plus the time it takes to prep them helps burn calories and kill time). i live in ag country so i eat whatever the road side stands have or whatevers on sale at the grocery store. as for veggies i like to dip them in hummus or just hide…

luv luv luv this idea, my kitties need an outdoor enclosure and/or stroller time. i had a kittie once that had a harness that she would walk in sometimes---at the pet store, but it was only when she felt like it then it was game over and i had to carry her.

hooray!!

great job, keep it up :)
