Sounds delicious. We looooove our mexican food in this house.

I am mostly German with a little Irish thrown in. I don't typically do anything but wear something green on St.Patrick's Day so that I don't get pinched.

I am going to get rid of my "fat clothes" as I out grow them with the exception of the 1 pair of jeans I had that fit me when I started losing weight. Once I have lost all of the weight I want to lose, I am going to put that pair of jeans back on, take a picture, then get rid of them too. :)

Since you asked a question, let me ask you one...How would you like your tombstone to read? Seriously...You are going to kill yourself if you keep this behavior up.

Not when you think about it this way...a pound of fat and a pound of muscle is still a pound. A pound of muscle is more dense and tight where fat is fluffy. Sort of like if you had a pound of bricks (representing muscle) and a pound of feathers (representing fat)...you would have to have a WHOLE lot more feathers to equal…

I usually burn between 1005 and 1418 (those are my lowest and highest counts according to my HRM). I love it. It is fun and it is the only exercise I actually look forward to.

That is fantastic! My husband and I are sort of doing our weight loss together too. He only has about 15 pounds to lose (from quitting smoking.Yay Kyle!) but I on the other hand have about 100 more to lose. He is my biggest fan and cheerleader. It is awesome to see the power of a unified couple. You both look GREAT! Thank…

This was supposed to be quoted... Tue 02/15/11 10:45 AM Tangentially related, some people list bedroom activity as 'housecleaning'...just sayin' I wondered about that. I know sometimes my heart rate gets Zumba Fitness level. I should have put it down. LOL

I calculate mine using the watch I have that counts your calories for you. In my case, I am burning twice as many as the aerobics general category. Mine was calculating my calories at 770ish, and I actually burn between 1100 & 1500 depending on my heartrate.

I love Bouncing Balls, Bubble Spinner, Zuma, Collapse, but what I get hung up on most isn't even an online game. It's Sims. :ohwell:

My husband's car door was frozen shut this morning and then, once he got it open, it wouldn't close!!! I had to go out and help him try to fix it. Did I mention my husband left for work this morning at 4 freakin' 30???? Luckily I was finally able to go back to sleep for a bit before my alarm went off, but it was a little…

My children are Emily Alexandra (15), Jonathan Andrew (12) and Jesse Thomas (8). We also have 3 pets Mildred Margaret a.k.a. Millie (cat 4), Awallago James (pronounced A-wall-ago, dog 1) and Moe Joseph (cat 9months).

Corydon - Cor a dun, Corydon is the city I live in. Cutie is because my hubby calls me his cutie. CorydonCutie...that's me.

Thank you K...I looked on Allrecipes and all I could find were dishes that were all saucy and high in calories. I didn't find just a basic baked fish recipe. Thanks for responding. Sounds delicious.

Yes Katy LOL...Fried is out the question albeit YUMMO! Thanks for the recipe Geh...that is exactly what I was looking for. Just a general baked fish recipe. I was thinking of spraying it with some spray butter and putting some Ms. Dash Lemon Pepper on it. :)

Hey I lived 36 of my 39 years in Louisville, Ky. Just moved to Indiana 2.5 years ago. Glad to have you on MFP. Feel free to add me as a friend if you like. Good luck with your weight loss goals. You will get tons of info and support here. I have made several good online friends since I joined here at the beginning of the…

This is my first cycle as well since I changed my lifestyle. Mother Nature thought she would be humorous and visit me right in the middle of my Zumba class. So far, I haven't had too many cravings and such but I am up two pounds which isn't sitting well with me because my weigh in is on Monday. Good luck in the coming…

Hey...now that is an idea. I will eat raw baby carrots but I don't care for them. I do however like roasted red pepper hummus and sun dried tomato hummus. Maybe I could try the carrots in that....or even green beans. Hey...it's worth a shot. LOL.

Do you cut one side or both? This is a fantastic tip and like one of the other posters said...you can't save your "fat clothes" just in case. I did that...BIG MISTAKE.

Thanks for all your responses. I could eat canned veggies all day. I love carrots, peas, green beans, asparagus, spinich, corn, lima beans, and I love the steamers with broccoli and cauliflower. I just knew that canned veggies added a lot of sodium and preservatives and I thought frozen was better. But like I said...I like…

Sweet tea was my weakness!!! I haven't had anything to drink other than water (or the milk in from my cereal) in almost a month.

Babies are the cutest! My babies are 15, 12 and 8. It's been awhile since I've had a little one like yours. When my 8 year old was about 5 months, he was just starting to learn to crawl. He would pull is upper body off the floor and kick his feel and squeal. It was so cute because he sort of bobbled around like a rocking…

I typically make sure everything is just as I eat it...down to the brand and amount. The only thing that is not 100% truthful in my food diary is my sugar free jello. I eat a brand that is not listed but the Jello brand sugar free jello has the same nutritional info as the ones I eat. It doesn't have a specific flavor it's…

Thank you all for your responses. I really apprecaite it. What would you do if they buy junk food and sodas with their own money? Would you tell them no, would you suggest instead of buying a BIG bag of chips, to buy one of the individual serving bags? I just want to do what is right...my mom thought encouraging me was…

Wow!!! Lookit you! You look fantastic. What an inspriation you are to those of us with a lot of weight to lose. Congrats on a job well done.

What a heartfelt letter. You are a very special person.

Now that is the best kind of accident to have!

Look on Zappos.com. Searchs Zumba shoes. They have them on there all different brands and prices. Zappos is wonderful to work with too if you have to return items, etc. I know they have the Nike shoes that a previous poster mentioned. My Zumba instructor said you need something with good support but with very little tread.…

I guess the thing I'm most embarrassed to admit is that, at 39 years old, I like a lot of Justin Beiber's songs. We can thank my 15 year old daughter for that. U smile, I smile.....

That is my kind of Ipod!!!
