No state here....I'm a Canadian lady :)

Song Request

A Venti Mint Majesty tea from Starbucks..mmmmm yummy

MissusMoon - you are so very right !!! High five health journey sista !!!

Incredible !!! You should be so proud of yourself

I log every day too :) Just like the rice krispy square I just had .... and it was YUMMY !!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm a happy Canadian lady who's always looking for more MFP friends :)

I'm 5'3" - I love being short :) I cuddle in to my husband's chest at the perfect height :) His arms cradle me in the best way. I admit, when I need something off the top shelf at the store, I bat my green eyes and men help me out :) One downfall that I can think of is that at a concert once, I was on the floor in General…

And that is why I have a private fitness page on FB. So my workout friends and I can post on there to keep ourselves accountable. Nobody cares if I did a half hour workout on the elliptical. But I can go on to my fitness page, type in what I've done and there you go, accountable without bugging people on my personal page :)

^^^What she said !!! I got married last year to the absolute love of my life !!! I was a curvier bride...had a custom made strapless dress in black & purple and I have never felt more sexy than I did on my wedding day. emdeesea - you are SO right !!!! The wedding is about your life with the one you love. I don't get…

My trainer would flip out if I told her I was going to do a Slim Fast "diet". She and I are on a health journey. MissusMoon - I have been logging since April 23 and I've lost weight eating steak and ice cream now and then. I prefer to eat my calories and nutrition :) I'm not one to drink my calories. Plus those "diet"…

Canadian lady here :) I LOVE to chat and making friends on my health journey would be awesome :) please add me if you'd like

We have a gym at work and my friend who is a personal trainer come in here twice a week with me and does weights with me. I'm very much a beginner :) and don't lift anything heavy by any stretch but we usually do 2-3 sets of 12-15 sometimes 17 reps. I wasn't a fan of weights but when I see my biceps become more defined, I…

All of these tips sounds so yummy. I'm always so leery about using plain greek yogurt in place of mayo cuz it's so, well, plain but I'm sure I can jazz it up.

I get a sweet craving every now and then too. I make sure NO foods are off limits but I do try to recognize what I want to use my calories for and what I don't. Yesterday, for example, I was craving chocolate in a huge way. I had a Nanaimo bar. I logged it and was I happy with the calories it used up? Not entirely but dam…

You are getting made fun of for trying to take care of yourself???? That is by far the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard !!! My husband would never do that to me. He encourages every step of my health journey. When he sees me measuring my peanut butter or weighing my steak, he puts his arms around me, kisses me and…

I use a scale and measuring cups. I have been on my health journey since April 23 and I've lost 7.2 lbs so far. I feel good, I'm working out more, I'm eating better and I'm getting tons of compliments. I agree that using a scale makes all the difference. I use my measuring cups and spoons and they are a huge help too :)

Edible

Those things are loaded with sodium !!! I would just stay away

None of us are in any position to judge this young lady. She feels justified in saying how she feels here, that's here right. All I am going to say is that I hope you start feeling better about things.

Do your best to stay away from things that say "low fat" "low cal" "fat free" - you get my point. They are usually filled with extra sodium, artificial sweeteners. Just a bunch of nasty stuff. If you are going to have something, have it :) Have the good stuff. Work it in to your daily calories. I don't believe that any…

I got migraines on a regular basis as it was but since I started working out and eating better, I haven't had a migraine in over a week. That's a record for me !!! I have noticed small headaches though. I hardly had caffeine before my health journey..never drank coffee or pop. I think my body may have been going through…

Radiohead

I tried them in my smoothies last week. They make my breakfast smoothie so creamy !!! Dam delicious. I don't like them on their own..yucky to me. I will put the other half in a small Ziploc container that has a tight lid, store it in the fridge until my next smoothie. I am going to try and have half an avocado in my…
