Mini liners in the regular muffin tin? I may have to try this tomorrow!!! yum!

I think public is the way to go. I have so much support from my family & friends because I told them. Having the support of those people out there is just what I need. I guess everyone has to decide for themselves. I used to think I could do it alone & then I'll just "surprise" everyone when I lose the weight. Well, I…

Bump! Now I need to make some of these! Woo!

bump! look soooo good! Thanks!

Wow!!! you look awesome! I'm hoping I can look that way in 50 pounds! you are inspiring me!! Kate

I just did my first Zumba DVD on Friday, and I LOVED it! A friend invited me to take her class. I think I will...just need to find a heart rate monitor. Any suggestions on good ones? ZUMBA!!!!!

Awesome, awesome job!!!! Wow!!! You look like a different person--you ARE a different person! You've lost a WHOLE person! Congrats, and keep up the inspiring work!

Well, ladies, I just up this topic this morning to get an idea about what to tell my gyne this afternoon. Thanks to all of your advice and some concern from him, he is testing me for PCOS and thyroid diseases. I'm hoping something shows up so that I can put a name to all the weird symptoms I've had--excess hair (including…

Thanks, everyone! They sound so yummy, and I REALLY want to bake up some sweet potato fries soon! Can't tonite...no more calories left & no sweet potatoes at home yet! :) But, they are on my list for this weekend!

I always thought I had PCOS...dr. said no after blood tests. Seeing that this was 10 years ago, is there anything else I can do to diagnose the problem? I believe I have some of the symptoms, and I want to make sure...Thanks!

Amazing!!! Next year (or sooner) Iam hoping to be where you are now! Thanks for the inspiratioN! Kate :flowerforyou:

Nice job!

Please don't give up! You are doing something for yourself, and no one should deny you that! Just know that there are people here who want to support you whether they have 10 pounds or 100 to lose. Everyone struggles with body image and self-esteem. Find something that makes you feel good about you. Maybe change up your…

I weigh myself every morning. I used to let that dictate how my day is going, but now I use it as a way to keep me on my path to my goal weight. I forgive myself if I am up, because I know I can watch my calories/sodium/fat intake and then get in some more exercise. I even cleaned the house today because I knew I could get…

Hey! You are not alone! I think we can all use each other here! I will help you, if you help me, too! :) Be good to yourself & KEEP GOING!!! Kate:flowerforyou:

You are an awesome inspiration!!! My goal is 150, but once I get there, I will re-evaluate, too! AWESOME, lady! Kate :flowerforyou:

I don't worry about TOM, I just weigh in & make a mental note of it. It's kinds fun for me, because I actually LOSE weight before & gain during. It usually regulates/averages out the week after. UGH! Women can't win!

There is a website called "Couch to 5K," and I have several friends who have used it to get prepped for a run. If you follow it exactly, it is supposed to help you a lot! I am going to use it soon, but my first 5K isn't until April! I would be interested in seeing what others in the MFP community have to say about it. Good…

I have the same problem, and I have been doing this dieting/lifestyle changing for years. So, a couple of weeks ago, I joined MFP. It has helped me to see that 1. I am definitely not alone on this journey; 2. there are many great tools and ideas here--check out all the message boards!; 3. Mini Goals are really helpful. I…

Don't give up! You have PLENTY of encouragement and support here from all of us! You can and WILL do it! Friend me if you want someone to be in your corner! Kate

Bump! All sound delish, and I just got a CP for Xmas! Woo hoo!

Ice cream, but I have started to LOVE the Skinny Cow single cups! Awesome! I am learning some new, wonderful ideas here, people! Thanks for sharing! Kate

Cool! I am VERY excited about MFP. My sister got me into it, and now I am addicted! :) Kate

Hey, ladies! I am new here, as well. I could use the support...we ALL could! I would love to have you all as friends! I just started last week, and I am doing pretty well. Slow and steady wins the race, right? Hope you are all doing well, too! Kate
