Bump. interesting discussion

Breakfast is always a crapshoot. After I log that, then I fill in lunch and dinner based on what I have planned/available. Then I can tell what I have left over for snacks :) I have been locking it in early so that I am forced to eat what I said and no messing around.

One of my best friends got an unwanted hair trimmer from her hubby.

Bought one (Biggest Loser) for my mom at Christmas time. Found it at Bed, Bath, and Beyond for $20!

Sending positive vibes and virtual hugs your way. No great words of wisdom......just support. Thinking of you!

I just want to say CONGRATS on the loss of 106 pounds!!!! AWESOME!!!!

Thanks again everyone! OH GOD I WANT TO FIND MY SWEET SPOT!!!!! :)

Thanks everyone! It is not really a matter of doubt, it is just a wide range. Based on what website I am on, the amount varies from 1200 to 1400. I have done some damage to my body from years of eating erratically. Just don't want to deprive it of anything it needs now.

Thanks for the feedback! What I meant by weeble, is that I am about the same measurements all the way around. I saw sooo many posts this weekend about not following MFP settings that I was getting panicky. Just wishing I can find the right combo for me. My diary is closed currently. It never used to be. I started in Jan…

bump. I like all the calculations on here!

Sounds awesome! Was looking for something like that! Thanks!!

Same here! SAHM to a 4 1/2 year old. I see my hubby every couple days due to his work schedule (sometimes not for 3 days) and my family is 3 1/2 hours away. ANYONE feel free to add me. Trying to find the "Me" time I need to do this is a real struggle. Could use all the support I could get!!

Instead of chips, what about those veggie straws made from carrots/spinach/potato??? My son loves them and they are not as bad as the actual chips. We also do a lot of popcorn, those applesauce in a bag things, choc chip granola bars, baby carrots, whole wheat or whole grain fig-newtons, go-gurts, cheese sticks. he is…

"Got you a ring today. Wanna see it??" Yep, that was it. (first hubby, next one was much better.........live and learn) :)

I have the same issue with my mother-in-law. It is a very tricky and sensitive issue to overcome/deal with. She buys those colored drinks.....you know the ones.. they are like neon blue and red in little containers that look like barrels (can't remember their name). I try very hard not to give my son anything with…

Bump. So curious to see the answer. I, too, scaled back my workouts big time to accomodate my HRM readings. Great question! Thanks!

Originally from Waynesburg (south of Pittsburgh).....now in NY, but moving to Warren, PA! Can take the girl out of PA.....but not the PA out of the girl.

Thank you for your feedback! I really appreciate it!

I am a card-carrying scale-obsessed fool. I hop on all the time, but I only officially weigh in on Friday mornings. It is a hard habit to break and can drive you CRAZY!!!

Gained exactly 60 with my son too! My opinion is not to get it resized. Just wear it on a chain around your neck in the interim. You WILL get there, it WILL fit again. I think if it like when you blow up a rubber glove.....first the hand part fills up and then the finger area. When you let out some air, it will all shrink…

Just wanted to say I feel your pain. This journey SUCKS!!!! I hit it hard last year for 8 months and i lost 7 pounds. Not very encouraging, huh?? BUT, I went down a jean size and the twins went from DD to a C. Mucked it up over the year-end holidays and am starting over again. It can be painfully slow. BELIEVE ME, I have…

Bumping for ideas.

Kashi blueberry waffle with tbsp of peanut butter and a banana. So yum.

Bump. Thanks!

Second time around for me too! You did AMAZING first time, you will rock it this time too!

Thanks everyone! Got appointment with the doc tomorrow to discuss and redo blood work. No protein supplements. No red meats, high fats, alcohol, smoking, etc. BUT, at the time of blood draw, I was at or below 1200 calories for about 8 months. Wondering if my body wanted that extra crap?? Anyways, thanks for the responses…

bump. Great job!!!
