I have Your Shape by Jenny McCarthy. I wouldn't really say that it's fun but I like it. I workout 15 minutes (5-6 days a week) with her.

I don't like the name Cathy but Kathy is ok. I just hate how it looks. Sorry if your name is Cathy, it's not you but just your name I don't like.

I drink a ton of water as well. Yesterday I logged 13 8-oz of water but I'm sure I forgot 1 or 2. Many years (about 10) ago I "tried" to see how much water I could drink before something happened. I think I was on gallon 3 or 4 in a few hours and I started puking. Back then I didn't care at all about eating healthy &…

Thanks! It definitely is a lot more work. My kids are 4 1/2 & 16 months plus I babysit a 7 & 11 year old. I do all my workouts at home. I usually kick the 3 oldest out but then I still have my little girl "helping" me. My husband works days & I work evenings so he's not usually home to take the kids so I can workout in…

You look great!

I have everything for this so I may have to try it tonight. Thanks!

WOW! I read through every single 'food weirdness'. I LOVE LOVE LOVE hamburger slice pickles and honey! I used to get a bowl of pickles and pour honey on top and eat with a fork! My husband thought I was crazy but he loves it now too. I can drink pickle juice in small amounts. I try to save the best bites for last. I love…

Thanks for all the ideas! I will have to try these out. My MIL loves anything pumpkin so I'll have to try it in the fall when we see them.

Oh this sounds so good! WOW!! Yup -- I'm getting some tomatoes tomorrow!

Very cool! And I love their new pizza! Thanks for the tip. :)

On the days you don't already exercise, try doing something else. Maybe walk around the block a few times. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water (and logging it) and eat at least 1200 net calories. Your food diary is closed so I can't give much more advice about your food. Good luck & hope it gets better!

My in-laws will be here next week & they usually buy a lot of cookies & stuff as well. She's pretty excited about my weight loss so I'm hoping this visit will be different. But if I were you, instead of wasting the stuff, I'd take it to work and give it all away.

I've never used the iPhone but I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Evo Shift Android! I'm a definite facebooker, emailer, picture sender, and App LOVER! For MFP, you can scan your food in and unable to do that with the iPhone! It saves a TON of time (granted it scans the correct food -- I've used the app for almost 2 months and it scans…

Thanks for the great ideas!

I log as soon as I eat or exercise so I don't forget. And I log from when I wake up to when I go to sleep. I rarely stay up past 10pm so it's not usually an issue for me. I might have a snack tonight though when my husband gets home and it will be logged for Thursday.

Thank you so much for the information!

Hey there! I'm from MO -- up in Hannibal! I've now lost 21 pounds since May 16th & I can honestly say that if it weren't for this site, I wouldn't have been able to stick with it! Good luck to you!!!

That sounds amazing!!! Thanks so much!!! :)

I wear a Kymaro Body Shaper from after my shower to right before I go to bed, including exercise! It keeps everything 'in place', pushes my boobs up a little, & helps me to sit up more straight. I love it!

I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE "Yeah" by Usher!!!!

I use my Wii all the time to work out. I have Jenny McCarthy's Your Shape game. I also have Wii Fit but haven't used it lately. I really want to try Wii Fit Plus & Zumba.

Sounds good!

I'm wanting to get it!

I've been looking for healthy meals as well. Thanks :)

A friend from work Google bouncing your legs (as if to calm a baby) and found that it can burn anywhere from 500 - 700 calories a day!

I wear my shoes at home because my feet slide on the carpet & wood floors otherwise.

Thank you so much!!! I've been looking for a healthy banana bread recipe & this will be perfect! Of course, I just used my other recipe and all my bananas yesterday! :)

I've also seen on the healthy food shows to cook your chicken with the skin on and then take it off after cooking. It saves all the juices inside and won't shrink in size as much.
