  • Yes, this is what I'm looking for. So what is your recipe for chicken fried rice or rice bowls?
  • YES Gift cards for a baby store or general retailer like Wal-mart Triple Paste and Aquaphor - two of the best diaper rash treatments available Rattles/newborn toys A cute and comfortable outfit Anything on the registry NO Diapers/wipes - found out my baby was allergic to certain brands Blankets - I think we were given…
  • I know I can't control myself around certain foods. Ice cream is my best friend and worst enemy. I will eat an entire pint in one sitting. I just can't have it in the house. If I want ice cream, then I go to the store or ice cream shop and get a small, single serving of it. It's time-consuming and expensive, so I don't do…
  • Great NSV! I want to get an inspiration dress now too. 100 lbs! What an accomplishment! Hopefully I'll have lost that much by my 1-year mark.
  • My husband and I purchased a couple La Jolla Cruisers from Walmart a couple years ago. They were just under $100 each. I think I was almost 300 lbs and he was almost 400 lbs at the time. We never had any problems with them, and the seats are wide and comfortable.…
  • Thanks saltatoria. I will try putting it under my bra strap tonight.
  • Gosh, there were so many things that SHOULD have been the final straw for me: 1. Every year on our anniversary My husband and I go to the same restaurant where we had our wedding reception. A couple years ago, I couldn't fit in the booth, so we left and have never gone back. 2. Getting over the 300 lb mark. Ugh. 3. Even…
  • My mom sent me some pictures she had taken at my daughter's first birthday party. One in particular was my wake-up call. You can see it in my first blog post. I won't post it here to scare everyone, lol. That's when I was finally motivated to change, but I didn't have the tools to do it until I found MFP a few months later.
  • I love cheese and eat it every day. I love a slice of Muenster on my turkey sandwich, and Colby-Jack goes with just about anything. Since I've started trying to eat healthier though, I don't eat as much as I used to. I've been using 2% cheese lately.

  • McDonald's started using all white meat chicken for their McNuggets in 2003.
  • Thanks guys. It looks like crockpot (and perhaps frozen meals) are the way to go. I'll sit down with my husband tonight to figure out some recipes and go grocery shopping. It will be so nice not to have to worry about what to make. And it will be a godsend to not have to slave over the stove with a toddler climbing up my…
  • I'm using Herbalife as well. I haven't really started taking all the supplements consistently yet because there are just too many pills, but I'm doing the shakes. I've lost almost 14 pounds so far.
  • My husband and I both play on Brandywine. My main is a 75 Minstrel named Chenda, but my "second main" is a 75 Guard named Tambookie. We've been playing for 4 years. I'm kind of on hiatus until Rohan is released though.

  • My weakness food is cheesy popcorn, and a lot of it. It's 1/2 cup of kernels popped in peanut oil over the stove (comes out to be about 12-16 cups popped), then 2 tbsp of melted butter, salt, and 3 oz of shredded colby-jack cheese over the top. I used to indulge in this snack about 3-4 times per week. It's no wonder I've…
  • My rewards for up to 60 pounds lost are going to be things I need to help with weight loss: new walking shoes, pedometer, etc. If I'm not in need of anything at the time, then it will be something frivolous like bath oil or make-up. After 60 pounds lost I won't have any clothes to fit, so each 10 pounds I'll probably buy a…
  • Way to go! Wow, what a temptation every day for a week! Good for you :)
