  • Fitness Blender... Good selection and FREE!!!!
  • Good topic! I would love to be at my goal weight of 140 - 150 by my birthday in August. I want to maintain my diet and exercise regimine to get there... No soda, Low sodium....
  • At least he is concerned about the numbers and showing that he cares!... when I tell my husband that I'm not losing or I've gained, he just stares at me and walks away... He would rather i keep it to myself... (BTW...my husband is morbidly obese and doesn't care).... Tell him... have the confidence to let him know where…
  • Would need to lose a lot more weight before a tummy tuck would even be considered... but would also have to save up some major bucks to have a tummy tuck...
  • I know that it has been a while since this thread has been active, but question here! All the comments and pictures show women with horizontal (bikini cut) incisions... both of my incisions (2 c-sections 24 and 26 years ago) were vertical and now my stomach looks it is a butt (honestly after the first c-section it looked…
  • I've bee using Fitness Blender and it got me hurting in places that I have forgotten about....
  • Calves (baby cows) eat a lot of grains and grasses... they only drink milk while babies (about 9 months to 12 months no different than human babies when breast fed).... But even though the calves are still nursing, they will start eating grains at as early as 1 month.... This is why they get so big...! before you start…

  • I can only see one picture and a slight line of the 2nd... can't see anything in it!... :( That is awesome that you are seeing a difference! Keep up the good work!
  • Check your SODIUM intake... if it's too high (I keep mine lower than what MFP recommends) you could be retaining water, which in turn effects your weight loss progress...
  • Colorado (USA) now Southeast Kansas (USA)
  • I am on a 1200 calorie diet... this was the recommendation of my Physician and Nutritionist.... What you say is about starving myself to lose weight is the farthest thing from the truth... In fact if I eat much over 1200 calories I gain weight and am extremely stuffed... When I first started this I was eating about 1600…
  • I have to say my singing voice. When I'm singing, that is when I am the happiest.... I've also been told I have an amazing voice (I don't think it's amazing, but whatever....)
  • I pulled out a pair of jeans for work this morning that just 2 weeks ago were a little tight... This morning, I had to wear a belt just to keep them up!!!! :)
  • I am going to repeat... If you are concerned, don't listen to people here on the boards... go see a nutritionist and/or a doctor for their educational feedback...they know you better than people here on the boards...
  • ***THIS*** I will add this... If you are in a country, anytime you do business, I think you must do your level best to communicate in the country's language, rather than communicating in your native tongue... but in this situation, it was a private conversation, I think it's okay!
  • I usually try to stick to 1200 calories on my diet (Dr. recommended 1200 - 1500) and then I have a little room for a little extra if I desire it... However there are times due to my work schedule as a teacher (I teach band and choir, so with football games, parades, and all the extra things that we are called to do, I…
  • could be her scale too... I have a scale that I can step on in a 1 minute period of time 3 times and get 3 different weights... such as 1 time - 5 pounds heavier, 2nd time - 10 pounds lighter, 3rd time - 8 pounds heavier.... I could keep this up and get different weights everytime...all without toileting or exercising.…
  • I've had people tell me to add an ad blocker... duh! I use adblock all the time and it is not turned off!... I've gotten on my hubby's PC (mine is a MAC) and he has the same issue, when I log in my account... I've gone to my settings and there should be no reason for any ad to be popping up! I think there is a LOT more and…
  • I have talked with a friend of mine that is a registered dietician.... According to her... when you workout, do not eat back the calories that you burn...finally... she told me that too many people stress about eating 1200 - 1500 calories... As long as you are eating around 1000 - 1100 calories and you are feeling content…
  • Once again.... I have never searched in google anything...and I mean anything about McDonalds.... the only thing I can think of is we fixed homemade hamburgers and I searched here on MFP the calories... that is the closest I've come to googling that company... I've really never liked this company and therefore why would I…
  • This is weird, cause I've not eaten at McDonalds since May.... so why would it all of a sudden show up? I clear my cookies and my search history every 2 weeks... WEIRD!!!!! Also right now I have Natural Choice for a Visibly Healthy Dog.... Yes I have dogs, but I've never even heard of this brand nor have I ever searched…
  • I have a fridge in my room (and a microwave & coffee maker)... I bring in my food for the week and usually include protein bars, string cheese, and fruits... I make sure that my fruit is already washed and clean for me to just grab a bit here and there between classes... one or two bites prevents me from starving by the…
  • First of all, let me say CONGRATS to all of you for making the first step and that is to recognize what you need to do... Be patient... I know that we, as a human race, are not the best at being patient... If the weight does not come off right at first, do get frustrated, but just keep plugging away at it. I have been on…
  • Check the sodium intake of your diet. I found that mine was high... when I began to reduce it, below what MFP said for me to be at, I began to lose weight!
  • I have been in your shoes not too long ago and even posted here on MFP about quitting... I even got the people who really were not supportive and even made me feel like quitting even more (especially since I don't have anyone really helping me out in person)... I had someone out of the blue that made contact with me and…
  • Love my eggs sunny side up as well...but I would say that if you are concerned, when you cook your egg, just make sure all of the whites are cooked...I get mine to that point and the yolk still is runny...
