Yummy!!!! BUMP!

Good point! I never thought of it that way.
-
I like this cuz it gives me options! My days are never the same, I never start work at the same time and sometimes I am not even in the office. I also bore easy from routine so this just may solve a couple of issues I have. Thank you and thank everyone for all your wonderful suggestions! It's also nice to know I'm not…

I would love to work out during lunch but I hate the idea of going back sweaty and it seems like showering, hair and makeup would just over extend my time. However, with that said I suppose I could start going for a more .... natural look....if working out were the priority. I have to explore the lunch workout thing again…

Yes I have the Bose Earbuds and LOVE THEM!!! They stay in my ears when running and working out. Mine came with three different size buds and the med fit me just fine. They suggest playing with the sizes and that you might want one size while you workout and one for just relaxing. Good for you!!! Congratulations!!!:happy:…

Well....I'm driving down to Southern California to hop aboard a dive boat with 25 other people aboard. It's a 65 ft fishing vessel and it is anything but romantic. We sleep in bunks and need earplugs to drown out the noise of the engine and snoring. Then, tomorrow, I will stuff myself into an incredibly unattractive 7mm…

Baby steps...don't try to do it all at once. For me small attainable goals, breaking things down into pieces helps. For instance, if you have NEVER eaten breakfast start with grabbing just an apple or some toast every day when you run out the door. You would be surprised how much just that little change will make. Or, if…

Oh yeah it is!!!! My crossfit trainer taught me out to do Double Unders, where the rope passes under your feet twice per jump. Takes a little practice but once you get the rhythm it is a heck of a work out!!!!

I have a girlfriend that has lost 55 pounds since September. She is under a doctors care for this weight loss and in the beginning he did put her on 850 calories to kick start her weight loss. I personally think it's going to extreme measures for something that should and can happen over a reasonable amount of time in…
-
Oh yeah, today was one of those days. When I figured that I would keep heading back to the fridge I already knew the days calories would be over so I did something I have never done before, I decided that if I was going to go over today then it was going to be healthy. I took a banana and scooped up some peanutbutter and…

Tea is like coffee, I would no more judge coffee based on Yban or Folgers nor would I judge green tea on the little baggies you buy at Walmart. Depending on where you live you may not have many options however, there are some really good loose leaf teas at Whole Foods and Trader Joe's. If you're lucky enough to have tea…

I'm a hard core believer in basic diet and exercise so I usually steer clear of trendy diets or supplements.

Dont buy anything! You can find just about anything you need online free. Look around, if you and your family belong to Netflix they have a number of workout videos online you can watch.
-
I just might need to try this! I love veggie dips but they often have too many calories. I can see using this as a sandwich spread also.
-
I just picked up a couple more packs of those! I have one a day if I am within my caloric allowence for the day. I also love Kozyshack sugar free tapioca and rice puddings!!! YUM!!!
-
Oh yeah, I know if I have high carb or sugar it makes me hungry after. Also, I always like having a few strawberries, nuts or cherry tomatoes with lunch which for some reason always helps satisfy my hunger and cravings.

Coffee junkie here....I LOVE coffee!!! I drink anywhere from 4-6 cups a day!!! I was diagnosed with an ulcer last fall and my doctor said is was probably due to the amount of Ibuprofen I was taking and took me off it along with wine (for a short time) and a few other things. I told him about my coffee addiction and he said…

Have you tried Crossfit? Very challenging!!! I actually had signed up for crossfit classes through a certified trainer local to me but the cost was outragous. However, everything you need to know is on this link http://crossfit.com/ and, they have video demos and even give you instructions on how to build up to being able…

Ditto!!! It also not only helps how your legs look, but there are huge benefits to strengthening this area if you are active at all. From riding a bike, skiing, hiking and so on.

Is it too late to join this team? I am a beginner runner. Did the run walk thing last September until I built up to being a full time runner but I desperately need to cross train.

I love shaking a bunch of lemon pepper over the top!!! Savory!

Welcome to MFP!!! You'll find lots of support, advice and friendly folks all working in the same direction. Good luck to you!:happy:

Here is a good link for couch to 5k http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml I had the same problem, I could not run to save my life back in September of last year. I joined a running clinic through my community for $75 that promised to make me a runner in 8 weeks. Well, it worked!!! I am not running between 3 and…

I keep telling myself I need to get a scale but I keep forgetting. I do measure EVERYTHING. I noticed right away when i started pulling out the measuring cups and spoons that my guesses were distorted. Thank you for the reminder.

It may also be the browser you are using. I use internet explorer and have no problems but i think when I use firefox I'd had the same issue.
-
Make a banana, peanut (or almond) butter smoothy with lowfat milk or plan yogurt. that should eat up quite a few of them.
-
I like cottage cheese or cherry tomatoes as a snack. I also ran across this very easy recipe for yogurt cucumber soup I want to try http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ellie-krieger/cool-cucumber-soup-recipe/index.html Nuts are good but you have to watch how many. 15 almonds comes out to about 100 calories. Doesnt sound…

Quitting must be in air since I just responded to another user who posted to my page inquiring how I quit. I was a serious pack+ a day smoker for it seem like my whole life!!!! I quit cold turkey 2 1/2 years ago and I dont miss it one bit! I feel finally free, I feel liberated and I am now a runner! But, it took me doing…
