  • AdBlock stops all ads. Yes, it also takes away the marketing revenue of whatever company is running that website. Just some food for thought, if you are also sick of ads on Facebook.
  • I was just coming to post this comic, thought I would check to see if anyone else had first. +1
  • Almond or other unsalted nuts Banana & peanut butter Bacon Granola bar type item - I make my own, which is really easy to do!
  • Obligatory Cheesecake Group! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/2653-the-cheesecake-group Because things like this aren't the end of the world. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/461619-ny-cheesecake-morph Nutrition - 1 cake: 885 calories; 127g protein, 62g carbs, 13g fat.
  • 1. Change your ticker tape on MFP. You are past the halfway point and yeah it's great to see how far you've come. Although, now you have a new (smaller) goal and it's time to let go of the past (because you aren't going back there again) and move towards your next goal. Apps > Ticker > Update starting weight (make it your…
  • Kickboxing gym/dojo doesn't have showers. I put on a hoodie and extra deodorant to "air out/conceal" before walking in. Besides Sprouts does a double sales ad on Wednesday. Who can pass that up?
  • +1 Temerity I for one am too lazy to change before or after the gym, so I just wear my workout clothes into the store. Check out my shrinking saddle bags, PLEASE!
  • Drink water ahead of time, before eating and throughout the day. You tummy will feel fuller before eating and you will stay hydrated. Fix a plate of food, do not graze. Don't beat yourself up if you indulge. It's one day, not the end of the world. Also, make sure to log the food and don't cheat yourself into thinking, "Oh,…
  • Places to get them. Rent them at the library - Free! Youtube - Free Fitness channels through cable - Not really free (it's already part of your cable bill) Garage sales, Craigslist - .50 to $1 I currently have: Billy Blanks Tae Bo - 65 mins (946 calorie for me). There is some "breaking the glass wall" and motivating you…
  • Commando, no digging anything out while working out! G-string for everything else, who wants underwear lines?! Go as thin as possible the pretty lace ones will hurt because there is way too much fabric up in there (up in there, sing it!). Make sure you get the proper size of you will be digging out of the front.
  • Morning Thunder by Celestial Seasonings is a caffeinated tea, if you'd like to mix it up or ice it down once in awhile. It has less caffeine than normal drip coffee but it could help if you need a little and don't want to get jittery. http://www.energyfiend.com/the-caffeine-database
  • It depends on the amount of weight you want/need to lose. If it's like 100lbs or something then it takes longer because you have more to lose than someone who only needs to lose 20lbs. It's been mentioned before that for casual acquaintances it's 30-50lbs for them to notice. For people you see daily, aka family, coworkers,…
  • Start doing spot checks now with sizes/portions. If you weigh protein, etc. Take out what you want/plan on eating, estimate how much you think it is and then weigh it. Train yourself mentally to be able to spot portions it will help in the long run. It will be less restriction and more common sense. I eat the same now as…
  • I met my husband on EHarmony, we've been married for 3 years now. I am a believer in whatever black magic, computer algorithm, crazy *kitten* these site use to make matches. This right here is the reason why. My husband and I had mutual friends, there are pictures of us at the same parties in different rooms. I have…
  • I am not only a member but also the president of TTWBC (The Tinnie Weenie Bladder Club). I probably go once every hour or two. It's a good excuse to get up move around and stretch. I also live in Colorado, the part I live in is considered high desert, so it's like living in Arizona as someone mentioned.
  • http://www.discreetcarry.com/#!womans-holsters/c1yws Made for your size and gun. Also is a better idea than a fanny pack for one simple reason. Are you going to have time to unzip a fanny pack?
  • Get into a water routine. Purchase a 16 or 24 ounce bottle; anything above 24 ounces can be daunting for NPWD (Non-Professional Water Drinkers). Take baby steps and work up to lugging around a 32, 48 or 64oz bottle or dare I say gallon jug? My old routine was: 1 bottle on the way to work 2nd before 10am 3rd before lunch…
  • This exactly. Weigh once a week, same day/time no matter what. Keep drinking water you shouldn't really bloat unless you are doing something out of the ordinary from the rest of the month diet wise, exercise, etc.
  • 1. Pre-plan your meals. Log in the night before and plan your meals for the next day or week. Think about errands you'll be doing, work, etc. Are you meeting people for dinner or lunch? Plan your calories around those events. I find it best to start with dinner and work my way up to breakfast. 2. Keep healthy snacks…
  • To have a healthy pregnancy. We have held off on starting a family because I am overweight and was unhealthy. The amount of increased risks because of being overweight while pregnant are just to many. Diabetes, heart stress/defects, blood pressure, anemia, etc. Pretty selfish to subject a baby to so many problems they have…
  • The big loss in the first 1-2 weeks is normally water weight, which is why it's just a huge drop. Most people will plateau for a week because the excess water weight is gone and it's now onto normal weight loss. You can gain up to 1 pound of muscle per week. Drink more water. Sleep more. Weigh yourself once a week, if you…
  • Me too. I always save my favorite item for last. I know you should stack food in your stomach, but who cares. Those mashed potatoes are last, I am going to savor them.
  • Interrupt people while they are talking, at least I know it! I'm always scared I will forget what I have to say. Sometimes I'll count to myself to keep me from cutting in but then I stop listening to them because I'm counting.
  • Awesome job. Swimsuits, ugh! Very cool for pre-pregnancy suit again.

  • Hi, You are not ALONE! So I decided to just look under the motivation forums to help me get out of a funk today and your post was the first one I was. Here's my funk story. On Wednesday, I decided to weigh myself, which I normally reserve for Sunday's so I don't go scale crazy and obsessed. Boy, was that a mistake, I had…
  • It's that the truth. I drink vodka and water and any crystal light flavor I have with me. Just ask for a tall glass that way you can drink (get drunk) and have lots of water (without a hangover) and you control the flavor. I like to mix packets together from time to time. I have yet to have a bartender seem put off by it,…
  • And here I thought it was a religion versus science topic. Still wondering.
  • Personal update and still looking for someone to walk/jog/hike with. I'm on week 3 of my kickboxing class, which I'm glad I've signed up for (again). I now have so much more energy that I have also started the couch to 5k fitness program, Week 1 - Day 2. My goal is JQ running club, just want to work my way towards it.…
  • Another one to try is 1 box of cake mix 1 can of pumpkin puree Great for anyone with an egg allergy. Very dense and a great way to use up the extra pumpkin puree from Turkey day.
