  • My 4 year old like to exercise just because she thinks it's fun. Especially kids yoga. Which is too hard for me but easy for her.LOL I would kind of watch what you say about being fat or watching calories. But exercise is great for her. THey have kids exercises. I found kids yoga on cable . :smile:
  • I am so sorry for your loss. That made me tear up. Because that could have easily have been my little brother. He is a former heroin user. By the grace of God he has been clean for a few years now. I will never feel like he has been cured though. He has overdosed a few times. You sound like a strong woman. Giving the…

  • Your food for the week sounds really good!!
  • I haven't read the other replies so forgive it I repeating... My guess is he is jealous. That maybe you'll lose weight and other men will want you. I have a friend who's boyfriend is like that. She talks about joining the gym so she feels better about herself. He goes into instant baby whining mode. Oh what? You want to…

  • Yeah I am one of those cream of whatever people. Probably why I am so fat. But haven't been eating them lately. I am going grocery shopping later. I will keep all your suggestions in mind while I shop. Thanks!
  • I have been noticing the salt content on cans. It's crazy. So I have been eating more fresh veggies. I am not that great of chef. LOL But I have been trying to cook more from scratch lately. It's so much easier to eat from a box or can. But I can't do that anymore. Thank you for all your suggestions!
  • My dog does the exact same thing. She ia a Lab/Shepard mix. Looks more like a lab though. It scares me when she does it. Because I'm not expecting it. So I will say her name & it wakes her up and then she goes back to sleep. LOL
  • Not that I am any kind of expert what so ever.. But I would say your not eating enough. Also maybe try changing your exercise routine. Like add walking or a different kind of cardio.Zumba is fun :smile:
  • I missed Buddy up on Saturday. But I did go to the friendship center on Sunday for church that Buddy is the pastor there.. It was interesting. I don't know if anyone else on here was there? But we had food afterwards. Regular food for some people. Then healthier versions for us in Buddy up. My friend & I sat with Buddy's…

  • I actually just bought it today. Because i have heard so many of you talking about how great it is. I hope so! I am starting it tomorrow.:tongue:
  • Thank you:smile: I will try that.
  • This Buddy up group doesn't really have anyone talking on it. :(. I joined another that is a little more people on it.
  • The Wayne Rec center is a little further than I want to go.I am mad they closed the Bailey Center. Much closer. But my friend and I were talking about going to Zumba classes. I might die from being uncoordinated but I can try!
  • Hi:happy: I joined another Buddy Up group and nobody has said anything new in 3 weeks. LOL So I gave up on them. :laugh: I haven't really lost much weight. But I feel better and have started eating much healthier.
  • I have some ground turkey. Trying to think what to do with it. I want to put it in the crock pot though.... Any thoughts?
  • I have some Kale in my fridge that I havent used up how long does it stay good for? How can you tell if it's bad?

  • I dont know where you live. But I know SO many people who go there. I want to sign up there myself next week. :)
  • You can make your own veggie chips. Not calorie free. But still crunchy and without the hidden salt or fat. :) I am a chip freak. I love crunchy stuff. Forgive me if this doesnt show up right. I don't know how to do everything on MFP yet. http://www.chow.com/food-news/80400/make-your-own-veggie-chips/
