^^totally this. I love pozole.

I have had this same conversation numerous times recently. We are becoming a society that cannot communicate appropriately. I watch my twenty year old sisters texting their boyfriends while sitting in the same room! I have married friends who talk to each other through facebook more than they talk in person. Most people…

Love this!! Thank you for the inspiration!!!!

Welcome to MFP. I am rather new myself, and absolutely LOVE it here. I have sent you a friend request. I look forward to encouraging each other on this journey to good health :happy:

Feel free to add me as well. I am on here daily, and absolutely love all of the encouraging posts from friends like Brallen up there ^^ :laugh: I just started about a month ago, and I am ever so thankful to have found this site!

A friend of mine taught me a great trick some time back. I knew I needed to do menu planning, but honestly what single, working mom has time for that? Then, she taught me an easy way. Every week we eat the same type of food on any given night. This way, I can get whatever looks fresh at the grocery store on the weekend,…

There are countless threads and even groups dedicated to the 5:2. I would suggest searching 5:2 under General Diet and Weight Loss and the under the group search.

I was just talking to a friend of mine about this yesterday. I am terrible about sleeping. I normally go to bed about 11:30pm, and I get up between 5:30 and 6am. For a solid week, I went to bed between 9 and 10pm, and I lost weight consistently every night. The next week, I was back to my old habit of staying up late, and…

I am a practicing Catholic, but I will not be fasting tomorrow. I gave up the fasting days years ago, though my family still participates. I don't eat meat on Fridays though. I completely understand you wanting to stay true to your faith and rituals. Good luck to you.

It is just an educated guess at best. It is saying if every day were like today, that is what you would weigh. Now, you aren't going to eat exactly the same foods, drink exactly the same amount of fluids, excercise exactly the same way to get exactly the same heart rate and calories burned. No one can or will do that. Just…

Any authentic Mexican food, but especially tacos. You know, the ones you get from the street vendors. Oh my goodness.

I completely understand. I came to this site looking for supportive and encouraging people, and I have found so many of them. I decided not to tell anyone else that I know personally or professionally that I was on a journey to get healthy, because the few people that I did tell, were not very supportive. The truth is,…

I am a newbie, but I am on every day. Feel free to add me if you like. I try really hard to encourage everyone :smile:

Have you tried getting one of those Snuggly things or a backpack to put her in? That way you can carry her with you and take off on a walk. If the weather doesn't permit, try the walking videos on youtube. You can walk in place at home and still burn calories. Whatever you do, just be sure to keep moving. I am a single…

I rode seven miles on my bike so I could have one bowl of Breyer's Girl Scout Cookie (Thin Mint) ice cream.

Thank you everyone! There are definitely some great people to be found on here, as well as a wealth of information. I can already see that this is going to be an amazing journey :happy:

Thank you, will do!!!

Thank you. I will look her up! Life is too short to not have a good laugh every day!
