More people need to find this thread! :)

I love the pool, but the only one that isn't crowded in the summer is the fitness pool at the gym. Which is expensive. I'm going to try to save up for the body assessment and get a gym membership. I love swimming, so I know I'd do great. They have a pool class for older people, but I'd be on their level since I have…

All of you are awesome! I really hope more people find this thread. I can't be the only one out there that's disabled and needing to lose weight. lol. I think when you have any kind of disability, you've got to have a sense of humor about it!

That would be me running haha. I have terrible balance too, so it doesn't help for me to be in any kind of hurry. I love walking and running on the treadmill (wish I could afford one!) The handles help me balance and actually focus on my running rather than who/what I'm going to walk/run into haha.

MFP is supposed to be used as a GUIDE. Not something to live by. Some people do, and that's okay! Because it gives them a peace of mind knowing that they are seeing at least a GENERAL idea of how much is going in. But, it is right about things absorbing/breaking down differently. That's why you have CHEAT DAYS! lol. And…

My advice is to skip on the meal replacement. I think they are fine IF you are looking to drop weight a lil quicker for a special event, but to use for long term weight loss, which is what everybody wants, then I strongly advice skipping the meal replacements all together. You can do protein shakes with a small meal and it…

I have PCOS, GI problems, and taking Metformin as well, and although I'm not Vegan or anything, I have read and researched to a small degree about going to Paleo. (FYI Metformin is hard on most everybody's stomach that I've talked to that's taken it, so we're not alone!) I would LOVE to go Paleo, but living in a house full…

5'1" here! My first goal is to reach down to 180. If I can get there and maintain that, I'll go further down to 150. But I would actually love to be 130. But realistically 150 is okay with me. :)

PB2 just sounds icky. I'd rather have the real deal. You can get natural pb which is way better. Not loaded with crap. I also like the Skippy All Natural Pb. It's smooth. But the pb2 is the equivalent to powdered milk in my opinion...should be okay in baking, but why would you not just go with the real deal unless you have…

Ps, I would definitely bump your cals up. 1200 isn't enough for anyone really. Even morbidly obese (Which is where I fit in) need more than that. Listen to the TDEE and BMR stuff. It truly works. Protein shakes really helped me fill up my calories if you're finding it hard to fill, but first do your tdee and all and set…

It took me 6 months to lose 31lbs. I quit and gained some back, then quit again and gained the rest back. But I'm back now and I'm determined to make this work. Doesn't matter how many times you fall down, what matters is how many times you get back up. As long as you're trying, you're winning.

I eat eggs every day. Some say they get tired of it, but I honestly LOVE eggs now. I normally just eat 9TB(equal to 3 eggs) of egg whites, but when I run out (like now) I eat whole eggs. I PREFER egg whites over whole eggs ANY DAY. Plus they are better for you. But eggs in general are great for you. Lots of great protein…

It sounds like depression to me. I can say about depression, it takes a lot to bring you out of it. You may be dog tired and don't feel like doing a thing, but once you do a workout, the feeling afterwards is rewarding. The more you do, the better you feel. TRUST ME. I'm not depressed right now, but I'm slowly on my way…

Found it! Thank you so much!!!

BUMP

That looks good, but hoping for one without onions or much garlic if any at all in it. lol. Me and garlic are not friends. lol. It would be awesome if I could find a simple version.

I have a delayed full signal, so it's hard for me to say. But for dinner, if I eat chicken or any kind of meat, I find that if I pair it with quite a bit of veggies, I fill full longer and drink water with it, that helps to keep you full longer as well.

Holy Jesus....Are you alive?? lol. I have a delayed, very delayed full signal, so I can see eating maybe 1/3 of that and being full to the point I'm sick. I think you've broken a record! lol.

I'm not very good with those kinds of things, but have you thought maybe steaming them?

Probably gaining muscle and losing fat if you're working out! :) I only WISH I had a booty, I'm flat as a flitter. lol. Well, not that flat, but not big either!

Really? None? :( lol.

Yeah I'm going to use it in cooking and whatever else I can. But hey, it was given to me so close to the date, I don't want to put 6 cartons or even just 1 carton on someone else to try and drink all that before the date. My son likes it with chocolate milk I suppose, so that's a plus. lol. I also have some protein powder,…

To the person about freezing them...

I read that you can, but it gets nasty and the milk and other ingredients separate and it gets a icky texture.

I have it. Have been diagnosed since summer 2010. It has slowed down my weight loss A LOT. I have been on Metformin off and on since then and it helps. But the stomach pains, the bathroom issues---shew. But I have IBS so it's hard to distinguish which is which. I know it hurts!

3 liquid egg whites, 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, ground peppercorn, chopped/dried chives. Then put that on a whole wheat sandwich round with 2tbsp of mayo. Yummm!

Vicks Vapor Rub (go to sleep smelling the tub of it!) Gasoline at the pumps Smell of the ocean

Well one thing that will help is to get all of the bad food out of your house. If that's not possible, stick sticky notes on all the doors and cabinets that contain food that say "are you really hungry?" "Do you want to eat?"

Ps. I added both of ya's!

Thanks ladies! I just changed from tracking my sugar, and replaced it with fiber. I get tired of always going over sugar no matter what I eat.
