Looks like I fit the trend, usually 6. I do better on 7-8. Its something I've been trying to work on.

Veggie slices 100 calorie packs (There's tons of different kinds) An apple Mixed nuts with low salt Club or ritz crackers Graham crackers Fiber One brownies Dry cereal Trail mix or chex mix Dried fruit - I don't care much for it if its dehydrated, freeze dried tastes better to me Had to edit to add- Make sure you are…

^this :) I'm sure you're tired of hearing 'you gotta want it!' BUT it is helpful to have a reason to get healthy. Could be as simple as just climbing stairs without feeling like you're going to pass out. Something for you to look forward to doing so you have a good legitimate push to lose weight and not over do the snacks.…

You could dye it but nothing you can do for the shrinking. From that view it is a very....flattering fit ;) lol

SW: 206.5 W1: 204 W2: 199.5 W3: 197 W4: 195.5 Total = 11 lbs Kinda cool seeing it wrote out like that :) droppin droppin Garbage- portion control for school meals Move- start some type of strength training Inspiration - Clogged with yesterday's excess, the body drags the mind down with it. ~Horace

I've heard a lot about drinking water lately. Drink a glass before you eat so you eat less (for those dieting), if you're thirsty you're already dehydrated, on and on. I really don't think there's a good or bad time to drink water. I just keep it handy to remind myself to drink more of it.

If I'm having a chicken breast with it, I'll set my broccoli in the steamer then set a thin chicken breast on top seasoned with Mrs dash. I also mix it with other veggies: cauliflower, carrots, or add it chopped to lightly seasoned rice. A little cheese always helps but check your labels.

I have issues nibbling while cooking, and since I have a concentration on less sodium and calories for my diet I have a separate meal than the kids most days (not always) so I eat first. As far as grabbing snacks like you said, maybe simply reminding yourself "this is for the kids" will help you not grab some for yourself.

LW- 199.5 CW - 197 Still losing but weekends are trouble. Garbage- cut down on sodium Move - walk more stairs at work Inspiration - "You're so pretty mommy" my baby girl Trina <3

I like to have a somewhat constant pace when I walk so I have: Metallica Sandman, Train Drive By, Awolnation Sail, ZZ Top Gimme All Your Lovin, Goldfish Fort Knox, ELO Don't Bring Me Down, Muse Uprising, Proclaimers 1000 Miles, REO Speedwagon Back On The Road Again, Frankie Valle & The Four Seasons Can't Take My Eyes Off…

Crush and Hawaiian Punch make little singles to put in a bottle of water. Only thing in it is 5 calories. I also like sparkling water you can find at walmart: black cherry, key lime, and cherry limeade are some of my favorites. Sparkling water helps me stay away from other sodas and I get my fizz fix :)

Lmao! Go big or go home...there's a double entendre for ya....:blushing: :laugh:

26 and my goal is to get from 210 to 155 so is 55lbs close enough? :)

You guys are my HEROS! Gotta get some groceries to try some of these recipes :)

You're not alone as you think :) I found out a couple of my coworkers are dieting as well. Now we have something else to talk about. My guy isn't on as strict of regimen as I've put myself on but he doesn't help when he says you can have one day! Yeah and I gain 3 pounds...anywho just because nobody says anything doesn't…

Communication is sooo important in a relationship. I used to have issues with this, to the point I moved out for two weeks. After actually TALKING with my boyfriend, we worked a lot of things I'd been holding in, now I'm more in love than ever. Ask questions but don't accuse, say I feel_____ not you never_______. But say…

I'm hoping that since before I gained weight I was a 36C that when I lose more that's the size I stop at. So far my bras are just getting less tight and I can go the next hook in. I'm a 42D now

Ok after going through ALL 8 PAGES to make sure I wasn't repeating anyone ;) Christina is in freak a leek by petey pablo....Came out when I was in high school I thought it was awesome lol Kristina by Howie Day is ok Then there's Kristy are you doing ok by offspring...depressing. And Christie Road by Green Day. Only one I…

I was on Cheaters. Bahaha not really :) I have heterochromia. I dislocated/broke a tendon in my left ring finger and have to tuck it in when I make a fist. Even in high school when I was hot I never wore a bikini. I used to be able to squat 300# Got another big word I forgot (shame on me) My youngest daughter was born with…

And of course I look horrible in red. But I can always wear some red accessories :) lipstick hasn't ever been my thing either...haven't found my color I guess.

Made me lol! Not just any ol whale...a narwhal. My moment was when I got addicted to Pintrest oddly enough. I found some outfit website that used your body type to find clothes that would look good on you. Oh. My. God. THAT'S what I look like?I've always avoided looking at myself in the mirror, skimmed past pictures of me…

Hi I'm 27 5'6" Current weight 199 Goal weight 155 Started at 210 so I've gotten a start :) I'm on here every day more than once, a little less on the weekends.

Triple D baby! My guy always says,"how are you not starving by the time you get done watching these shows?!" (I like Food Network:)) its just fun to watch and Guy cracks me up.

I like fried food during that week...especially the later it gets I have no idea why. I say just allow for it. If you really just can't and have too much guilt go get some fiber one brownies. They are chocolatey 8g of sugar and 90 calories. I have one for a snack sometimes instead of those Reisen chocolates sitting on my…

So I'm not a guy and guys lose different than gals do but I have to watch my carbs and sodium as well. I peeked at your diary and saw you are eating back the calories you exercise off. There's a thread here somewhere discussing whether you should or not...I shoulda done more homework before I started blabbin on here but…

Last week: 204 This week: 199.5 Total lost: 4.5lbs Although its a great loss for the week I'm a bit disheartened because I was actually down more but gained it back over the weekend. BUT I can happily say I made it under the 200 mark which always makes me smile :) Garbage: This week I'm not focusing on a single food item…

Bump I want to go make some breakfast stuff now :)

You are my hero :) these will be great to take to work instead of just cereal or whatever they're serving (I work at a school)

I'm not a wine drinker but isn't fruit a good combo? Depending on the cheese you can find varieties that aren't too bad on calories . Then there's the obvious veggies. Some cucumber finger sandwiches sound pretty darn good and the small portion size should help calorie wise. I recently found turkey pepperoni from Armour…

My guy wants to go do that! I've been in a few airplanes but never jumped out of one...it scares me a wee bit but I still think it'd be exciting to try :)
