THIS^^^. I miss being able to snack and try things people offer. Earlier this week a coworker offered to buy me a cookie from whole foods and I had to decline since I had already planned my day out food wise and didn't have room for the splurge...

Yes! Planned ignoring can work in many situations. As long as they are not endangering themselves or others/being destructive, I've noticed that it helps to wait until they've cooled off a bit and are ready to listen, talk, or be redirected to a more appropriate activity. As long as expectations are clear and consistent…

Nope nope nope. You should never strike a child that is in your care. You are not their parent. I work with children with developmental disabilities/severe behavioral issues (many of which have experienced trauma/been in state custody) and I have never and would never physically discipline them. I have had to contain…

Well when he's 16+ and larger/stronger then they are, they will regret enabling and reinforcing his negative behaviors.

This is my life! I've actually started running in the early morning before sunrise cus I'm not really down with being honked at. And I can totally relate to the cat thing. Whenever my cat walks on me it feels like shes pressing little baby hammers into my stomach/chest. And I'm trying to hold out as long as possible before…

I would suggest doing C25k every other day and around 3x per week so that your body has time to rest. But it all comes down to how you feel before, during and after your workouts!

ETA: on second thought, tmi!

I always knew I was fat but didn't really think much of it since I "carried" it so well. My wake up call came last year while walking around a museum with my bf. We were walking at a leisurely pace, but I felt sweaty, out of breath, gross and actually had to sit down cus I was getting winded. Took me a couple of months to…

too much sodium for me. If I want sandwiches I bake some chicken tenders and use those.

Wonderful job!!

Person from HS who I had lost touch with after graduating was murdered by her bf in front of their 4 month old son... Makes me really sad when I think about it cus she had a really difficult life (her mom died young and she was a bit of a latchkey kid) and it looked like she was getting her life together...

You look amazing! And the baby is soooo cute!!

I made the mistake of not spacing out the last two words of "oatmeal cream pie". what came up still haunts me to this day.

Currently hooked on HEB's Java Chip. Close second would be Haagen Dazs' Carmel Cone.

I'm in! This will go great with the water cleanse I'm starting today.

clocked in today at 195 days logged. Feel free to add me. Diary is open to friends and I'm generous with the 'like' button :)

bump, sounds delicious :)

I wake up everyday at 5:50am to either wog or circuit train. Gives me a little wiggle room if I snooze my alarm a couple times. It was difficult in the beginning, but it has become pretty routine with time.

This is my favorite peanut butter EVAR! I really want to branch out and try their other flavors.

Do you have mfp set to lose 2lbs per week? That's definitely too aggressive of a goal for the amount you are trying to lose. I would recommend setting it to either .5 or 1 lb a week. The losses will be slower but more sustainable in the long run.

haha, I like her too. I think she's hilarious in Ripped in 30.

you look wonderful!

I have a FT4. Works well for me and I have yet to have a problem with the chest strap not connecting. I have had it pop off a couple of times during workouts but that was due to weight loss and me being lazy and not tightening it when I needed to. From my understanding, the number given is a "gross" amount of calories…

bumping for later!

pizza, oatmeal cream pies and greasy cheeseburgers! I'll be have two of the three tonight so I can't really complain.

from my understanding HRMs work best for steady state cardio (running, walking, etc).

14/12 for bottoms and L/XL for tops. All of which are too baggy. I need to go shopping for new clothes, but I'm trying to hold off until I'm closer to my goal weight/body.
