I spray a pan with olive oil spray and take 1/4 cup of Egg Beaters and season it with a little sea salt, pepper, and garlic powder and fry me an egg and serve it on 40 calorie wheat bread with 1tbsp of mayo. Doesn't take long at all and very filling! I have it almost every morning! :)

I have lost a small bale of hay....how in the world did I walk around with all that weight? :)

Well my HRM has a chest strap and my heart rate matches what is on the heart rate screen on the machine and it is usually only off by about 80 calories (machine being higher) so I am pretty sure I am ok going by my HRM (better to be under than over). I choose to only eat some back on days I have longer runs and I am…

My only issue with this is whether you actually know how many calories you are burning. I use a heart rate monitor so that my calories burned are more accurate than goin by the machines or whatever is loaded in MFP already. Everyone is different. If you are logging as burning 800 calories (what machines or MFP say) and…

Have you tried to cut back on your sodium? I started staying at 1200 calories and staying under 2300mg of soidium along with drinking more water for a week and it has started moving again.

I only have 8lbs to go! I hit a plateau for about 3 months and I am back to losing now. Hope I reach my goal soon....I have been on this "lifestyle change" since January 2, 2012! :)

It does not have an accurate count of calories burned because there is no way of detecting your heart rate (which is what a HRM does). It calculates your activity by your steps and mileage and what your body burns when not even doing anything (which is based on the info you put in when you registered your fitbit and…

All I do is take broccoli florets and toss in olive oil and sprinkle garlic powder or any other salt-free spices (Mrs. Dash) and spray cookie sheet with olive oil spray and bake until browned. Yum Yum!

BUMP...I love cabbage!

Everything is bad for you and causes cancer (or so they say so eventrually).....I guess moderation is key!

He would shop and cook his own meals if he did not like what I bought or cooked! I will work with my kids but not a grown man!

I have both...I like the fitbit to challenge myself to move more and climb more stairs during the day to reach my goals but I absolutely have to use my Polar HRM w/ chest strap during my workouts for accurate calorie burning!

It is not ALL about the number on the scale...I may weigh more but because I have more muscle I will look as if I weigh less. The scale is not the only source of truth! :)

^^^^^^^This

I believe Natures Own has a 45-calorie white bread. I always get the wheat though. Sara Lee does too I believe.

I am fine with fat-free as long as I am getting in some good fats....our body needs some fat! :) OP: My lunch is usually leftovers from dinner the night before, sandwich with Special K crackers or popcorn chips, or low calorie soup......I work full-time so I have to do easy with not a lot of cooking needed.

I have an iphone 4 and did not think it would sync with it...I thought it had to be a 4s or 5!

ok..thanks! :)

I feel like I exercised and did all that hard work for nothing if I exercise and then eat my exercise calories back....how do you lose weight if you eat back all the calories you just burned?

my food diary is now open!

Get you an iphone armband...they make some that are waterproof also so you can run in the rain. I use the paid version of run training and the free version of mapmyrun!

I started Jan. 2, 2012.

I am scared to up my calories because every time I do my weight goes up! It just hasn't worked for me to eat more to lose more...I have tried several times and the scale moves up every single time.

thanks for answering....I have been doing it everyday except I skipped a Friday because I was out with friends for dinner and movie and got home really late and a Sunday (because I went to the gym and ran). I was not able to do any extra work-outs the first week because I was soooo sore. I am on Day 8 of Level 1 and I have…

Meeee....I am a mother of an 8 year old girl and an 11 year old boy. I started at 187.6 January 2nd and I am now at 143.0....my advice is to not wait until your kids get older. lol

helloooooo??????

I would be skiddish with an older crockpot but I have a stainless steel 6 qt and if I am gone all day I only put it on low so my food wont burn if I run a little late getting home. Mine has where after 6 or 8 hours (whatever I put it on) it will switch to warm. Remember crockpots are made to turn on and leave. Just make…

Engaged after 6 months...married 2 months later...still together after 13 years! :)

I usually have a slice of peanut butter toast before morning work-outs! :)
