If i was going on a road trip i would take water, light string cheese, fresh fruit ( apples, grapes), or maybe even some beef jerky. kat

We are going on a cruise in november. I have been on one before and have decided to just enjoy my vacation rather than stay up tight about the food. It is just a week and you can get back on track when you return. Now i would not say you should frequent the dessert bar at every meal, but there are usually fresh fruits and…

I understand, i actually had a girl at work start laughing at me a couple of weeks ago. She said "You have got to quit wearing that", it made me feel really good! First time in my life that i felt good because someone was laughing at me!!! kat

I have made a version of fluff for years, below is my recipe: 1 package of regular cottage cheese 1 small pack of sugar free jello mix, i like cherry 1 package of sugar free coolwhip 1 can of crushed pineapple 2 small cans of manderin oranges I love this stuff!!!!!!! kat

Stuff a chicken breast with spinach/light string cheese/parmasan(sp?)cheese. bake chicken. When chicken is almost done spoon tomato sauce/oregano/basil/garlic over chicken and finish cooking. You can spinkle more grated cheese over top just don't get heavy handed with the cheese. It is really good!:drinker:

How about some fresh fruit, laughing cow cheese and triskets. I also like the sugar free pudding cups, apple sauce cups, boiled eggs, pickels, those 70 cal cups of soup. You could also prepare some salads in gladware, i do this for lunchs at work. kat :drinker:

That is just too funny. My husband and i were just talking about Tilapia. Neither of us can bring our selves to eat it after seeing it on an episode of dirty jobs. They were using Tilapia to clean up after other fish, they eat the other fishes waste, YUK!!!!!!!!! kat

I would make a nice sirlion steak. Just trim off any extra fat and broil it! kat

WAY TO GO!!!:flowerforyou:

You go girl!!!!!!!! Have a wonderful time!:drinker:

Don't let him get you down. Keep your head held high, he did this and he should pay, not you! My ex was a real piece of work also, and i just had to get it in my head that i deserved better. My current husband knows that if he wants someone else he is free to leave any time, but he better take his crap when he goes! As i…

Amy, I understand and am in the same boat as you. I am a mother of 2, and grandmother of 2. I am almost 41 years old, 5'2" and my goal is to lose 87 lbs., i was on the board previously and fell off the wagon when i started my new job a year and a half ago. I am however back and i will do this, i just started over last…

Well after that gain from going to vegas i am back on track. I lost 4 lbs. since last monday! I think maybe the gain was water weight from drinking soda on vacation. I am now at 206.5 lbs which means i have lost a total of 19 lbs. since starting this site. My short term goal is to be under 200 lbs. by the time we go to…

Wish you had asked before you booked your vacation. NEVER go to Vegas in July! We did that the first time, it was 113 degrees on the cool days. We fried like lobsters within about an hour at the pool and i do not usually burn. If you go to the pool use stong sunscreen and put it on thick. Drink lots of water because you…

Ok, i went to Vegas and gained 1.5 lbs. Could have been worse, i just blew the diet to hell. Well, today is a new day and time to start over.

Well, i guess my idea of cheat day is a little different. Last night was my cheat night. We went to applebee's, i had a steak/salad/veg's. I call it cheat day because i went over my 1200 calories. I actually went over by about 300 or so for the day. So my cheat days i still eat well but i just go over the normal amount on…

Ok, i am going to vegas on the 23rd and hawaii in may. What can i do to help me stay on track while i'm on vacation?

No, i don't lose 3 lbs. every week. Sometimes it has been 4 and otheirs 2. I had a rough week last week, i lost a long time friend due to weight and breathing issues. So i didn't eat very well over the weekend, i just wasn't really hungry. I hope i can take her death as another reason to get myself in shape. It really hits…

Today makes 5 weeks for me. I lost 3 lbs. this week which brings my total to 15 lbs. over all. kat

I know what you mean, i had a happy meal today, but we all are going to have those days, and today was ours! First time i messed up since i started almost a month ago . I'm still on track though, i haven't went over my calories, and i won't!

Hey neighbor, i'm in springdale! You can do this, if i can do it you can! I certainly relate to the growing up in a southern family and eating at all occasions! If you need someone to talk to i'm here for you. I can be very motivational when i need to be. I am very determined to do this, i also have alot to lose. Good luck…

Good job, keep up the good work! You will be at your goal weight before you know it!!!!!:drinker:

Does anyone else weigh in on mondays? I am down 4 lbs. this week, thats a total of 7.5 lbs. in the two weeks since i started :happy: . Only 77 to go!:blushing:

2 cups coffee 1 banana 1 cup shredded wheat 1/2 cup 2% milk

I just started this 8 days ago, i went to the gym for the first time yesterday, so yes i did get some exercise in. I have lost 3.5 lbs. as of monday. I have also been eating breakfast and lunch since starting this last week, i just didn't before.

I log everything i take in, even the cream in my coffee. I have been loading down with fresh vegtables, tuna, chicken breast, turkey bacon, i eat huge salads, and plate's full of stir fry. I log everything, but the veggies really make me feel stuffed. The only thing i can think of is that i do not usually eat breakfast and…

I feel like a stuffed pig, i have ate, and ate, and ate but i am still under 1200 calories. I have only gotten to 1200 calories 1 day in the last 8. I am usually under any where from 200 to 50 calories a day. Is that bad, i am staying full some times stuffed to the gills. I have even been eating frozen fruit bars, and 100…

We have 4 basset hounds: Rosie, Bommer, Thor, Daisy. A yorkie mix named Bentley, 2 cats named muffy and fluffy, and a pond full of fish. Oh i forgot to mention a 18 & 12 year old daughters and a husband. Does this constitute a ZOO? LOL I also help with the local basset hound rescue and a local all breed rescue, so you…

My daughter who is 12 has donated her hair 2 times, i donated the last time my hair was cut. It is a really great idea to do this!
