  • I LOVE my Eliptical. I love it because it gives me the sense of running (Which I can't do) without the pain! It burns tons of calories and I can watch my husband "Judge Keven Ross" on tv while working out. LOL
  • Great Idea!!!! 10. Born and raised in California moved to Denver in 1984 9. I REALLY want to go on Survivor!!!! 8. Mother of 2 beautiful intelligent college students. (Girls) 7. Just passed my 1 yr anniversary on MFP 6. I have a love/hate relationship with working out! 5. I have a love/hate relationship with Pizza, Ice…
  • It shouldn't really be an issue at all. Breasts are for feeding and babies get hungry in public! On the other hand I think that breast feeding mothers should consider covering up their breasts while doing so. Some just don't care about exposing themselves. Not everyone is approving of an exposed breast so just be…
  • My oldest daughter is home again after being gone a year. She's gone from a size 5 to a size 12 in just a year. Now that she's home I got on her about her weight gain and I only get met with tears and frustration. So what I do now is invite her to workout with me doing fun things like Zumba and I cook healthy meals. Its…
  • Me and my babe are going downtown Denver to watch the fireworks and hang out with the New Year's crowd. We don't drink so its so fun to watch all the drunk people embarrass themselves.
  • I think if its your style then go for it. I think its too loud and way too busy, but I'm also 41 yrs old. LOL...Even though I own an Ebay store that sells clothing its a bit loud. But depends on where you are wearing it and what you're comfy in really. You said it speaks to you so GO FOR IT! Fashion is what we like...not…
  • Boil it in a little water with Mrs. Dash with onion and bell pepper and you're done!!!!! Takes the place of fried cabbage. I actually cook all my meats like that if I am cooking them in a pan as well. Either a bit of of water or Pam if I don't grill it on my panini.

  • Keep them! Core strength training and tighten up them abs and your muffin top will go away!!!! Besides it gives you something to look forward too!

  • Maybe cutting your morning workout down to 30 mins and researching energy packed foods/snacks that will get you through the day. Don't forget you should have a daily vitamin. I like 5 hour for my sluggish days but don't make that a habit. I also get up at 5:15 am so I know that you can quickly get tired. Also maybe take a…
  • I would think that the sandwiches would get soggy after just a day. But as far as being "good" I would say they would stay good except for the soggy bread. Yuck!
  • That is an awesome accomplishment cuz I sho would have been having some cake! LOL... As for your hubby saying only 1.5 pounds in a week he must not realize that is a huge loss for one week. Those who do not try to lose weight don't know about it at all. Maybe try explaining to him it took years to put this weight on so its…
  • Well maybe tea or a light juice will be better. I love Pepsi. I've switched to Pepsi Max which tastes better than diet pepsi and lower in sodium but I only have about 1 or 2 a week. I try to drink juice or tea with my meals. I've never been a big soda drinker so that helps. Good luck with it lady!
  • I would eat good foods that are higher in calories like bananas, broccoli and avocados. This way you're still getting in your fruits and veggies, increasing your calories and not falling into bad eating habits. Good luck!
  • You can! My man doesn't eat what I eat. We don't live together but eat many meals together. I often have to cook something different than what he's doing. Its all up to us! Yes its nice to have outside support, but you have got to bite the bullet and do it for yourself. Use us at MFP to support you! Besides we'll cheer you…
  • Thanks y'all...Might have to try them. $26 bucks isn't that bad when they are usually $71.
  • I'm not sure its a certain size I want to be. I wasn't even sure about how much weight I wanted to lose. I just knew that I wanted to eat healthier and feel better and have more energy. I've achieved that but still with the program because I'm still over weight! So as long as I feel good and eating good I'm satisfied. OH…
  • As a recovered drug addict I always worry about triggers to relapse. I've been sober for over 6 yrs now and still I will drive by somewhere or see something and those feelings come rushing back. Since he was on steroids I wonder if working out can possibly be a trigger for him? He may need some counseling to learn to…
  • Hawaiin and white
  • That's difficult...I can't seem to get my sweety to workout with me although he does a little bit on his own but not enough to say the least. I think I would tell him that he was looking and living good and healthy while searching for his wife he's got to do the same thing to keep her. Not saying you would leave for this…
  • Very nice girl!!!!!
  • I just think its funny that folks don't like the taste of water. Maybe its tap water? I use bottled mountain spring water but when I don't have that I drink the regular tap water. Of course I'm in Colorado and we have good water here for the most part. But if you don't like water then maybe you can make it into ice tea.…
  • I'm so proud of you. I type this right now with tears in my eyes. You've been my inspiration this whole time girl! I've told you over and over and over. I'm 41 yrs old and been heavy most my adult life. I don't have any mental issues other than I'm black woman crazy! LOL...I don't have a sick husband nor a challenged child…
  • These are all great things NOT to miss! I expected this to be fun, but reading all your responses made me very sad for me and you. I never realized the hurt my weight brought me because I was always the "Fat pretty girl" (better yet...the Zpretty fat girl. LOL) and NEVER had problems with dating. I only had problems with…
  • My man had to teach me about boundaries when we first started dating 3 yrs ago. I wasn't a doormat, but I was the go to person for everyone's needs. Made them too lazy to do it for themselves because they knew I would pick up the slack. When I started creating boundaries I'm sure I was all kinds of B*tches, but my mental…
  • Tiger Balm is the best for sore muscles and aches and pains. Its a sports menthol balm that is way better than Ben Gay or anything else I've used. A bit pricey, but you use less and its way more effective. Good luck and don't stop cuz you're sore...Get get get it!!!!!
  • LOL...You're looking way hot anyway!!!!! I like the chest and arms on a man anyway!!!! (wink wink)
