Add me!!! Need more friends for motivation

I'm 22!! Although I feel much older ???? lol. Feel free to add me !!

Hmmm. They really taste like another meat to me...closest I can say is chicken? Maybe similar to calamari? You guys have that? They are very soft and thin, some refer to them as slimy but that all depends on how they're cooked and how they are seasoned. Some people use vinegar, some use pork, it depends. But done right,…

The first thing that comes to mind is chitterlings. My mom would make them for the holidays...everyone would give the :noway: face every time I said I ate them. Mom is gone now so there's no one to make them for me ..glad I never learned how to make them myself...can't imagine eating them since I've gotten older and done…

Nope, not even if they made it better & added features...I'm on a budget and every dollar counts. I'd prob just stick to writing things down manually or just finding another app and forum. & the ads don't really bother me...im used to ads everywhere on the internet (i mean, it does cost money to keep a site/app running ya…

I was looking for a calorie counter...I have the fuel band but I don't think its accurate :/ Glad to see purchasers that are happy with BM !

Same !! At some of the newer machines, they come with iPod chargers that you can attach it too, with a little ledge for it to sit on

I wondered about this too! I happened to start my weight loss journey while on my period and wish I would have found this post sooner! Im actually on the pill (orthotricyclen-lo) and my periods are super light with little to no symptoms aside from that 'Ugh' feeling you have while bloated. Is it safe to work out while on…

Wow!!! Thanks so much guys for the responses. I hate the "Uni-Boob" (had no idea there was such term lol) I'm definitely gonna look up all the suggestions. Another problem i have are the straps cutting into my shoulder...as if the bras aren't long enough to reach from shoulder to underboob ya know?

This is awesome! New to the group, my name is Samantha :) From NYC, feel free to add :happy: Just starting my weight loss journey and looking for some MFP friends! SW: 183 CW: 181 GW: 150 (for now) NSV (had to google what this meant lol) Drink More Water Slowly reduce my sugar intake Work out more Motivate my boyfriend to…

Hmmm well for breakfast I'll eat one pack of oatmeal with a banana sliced & mixed in Lunch is a turkey & provolone sandwich on whole wheat Snacks are usually apples, yogurt, granola, occasional Kellogg shake

Also like mentioned I buy everything in bulk, it's just so much cheaper ! Groceries are SOOOOOOO expensive, and Ofc everything healthier is just that much more expensive

Wow thanks everyone !! I think I'm just so used to routine, so I just have to make a conscious effort to switch it up. For the most part I think my diets kinda balanced as my dinners change & weekends are completely diff. Do you all find it easier to make lunches & snacks ahead of time for the week? *slightly offtopic, I'm…

That isn't healthy at all :( starving yourself won't yield long term results :( I hope you rethink this plan and at least try to eat somethingggg in the morning

Will do!! I definitely know the aftertaste you are talking about so if this doesn't have it that might be awesome !

That's so awesome!! That's my goal that I can inspire him and it won't take me suggesting a work out for him to take initiative. I'm hoping me leading my example will be enough and he'll take a hint !!

From Brooklyn! Living now in Jamaica Queens. Add me ! :)

Woo Hoo ! Fellow NYer here :) Happy early birthday! you can do it!

I totally understand !! I'm looking for the same, I shall add you now :)

Thank you !! I've invested in buying egg whites (my cholesterol is a little high) so If I don't have oatmeal, its usually an omelet with cheese. I'm scared to weigh myself because if I don't lose weight I think I might stop eating more consciously. Right now my bf and I are only working out 3 times a week, and I just don't…

Ahh!! I definitely haven't done deep research, just read a few articles via google here and there. Those in my life are just telling me to quit cold turkey and i just can't. I took your advice and started tracking my sugar instate & i think I'm slowly making progress. Is it still safe to eat sugary things though? You…

I totally get your motivation!! Im the smallest in my family, everyone on both sides is obese. I don't want to end up like that either... & I don't avoid junk food, its just not something I ever ate (thanks to my mom)...Sugar & Milk were my vices growing up...Even know, I can drink milk like its water (Even though I've…

Be safe down there!! I sent you a request :) Happy Weight loss journey!
