You are paying 100 dollars for shoes that will reduce the damage you can do to your body when you run, that should always be your primary concern, making sure they are right for your feet, it's imperative, otherwise you have truly wasted the 100 dollars I wear ugly reeboks,

I agree with you, I hardly ever crave sweets, it's an addiction to the sugar and really none of us need it, there are better ways to spend our calories

Wow, well done on your weight loss so far. Welcome to MFP, I hope you find it as useful as I have. Feel free to add me as a 'friend' if you like.

nice work, you are looking great!

Lol....

You have to put the IMG in small letters (img), I re-posted them for you below. Well done! Before: During [/quote]

well done, my goodness you must be so pleased. I have lost a lot (ok so it's nowhere near as much as you have lost) and even though I have seen a huge difference in my girth, I still can't comfortably fit the next size down and I have no idea what I was, but I am guessing I must have been a good size 20 wearing stretched…

I have no idea, I posted this list but I dont live in the states, I just found it absolutely incredible that there could be so many calories in one part of a meal....yikes... Thank goodness i can safely say I have never had any of the above

I do my elliptical in the full blow of a fan.... it's hot here too and we can't afford air con

Absolutely.... I wholeheartedly agree with you.

absolutely, I used to feel starving all the time and ate heaps of terrible junk foods and picked at things between meals, now I feel great and i really dont feel hungry all the time

While I agree with your about skipping meals, I just thought it might interest you to know, that long term, it is not a good idea to 'keep you blood sugar up' it is actually better for us to allw our blood sugar to dip, to prompt our bodies to create it's own energy from our stores. Keeping your blood sugar constantly 'up'…

That's a helpful post, thanks!

I dont eat mine back, defeats the purpose in my mind too. Lots of people say they do , but I figure, I am trying to push my body to use it up its STORED calories, why would i give it extra calories for the workout. Also, I think if you eat back your calories you can end up doing things like eating at the end of the day,…

I'm sure you can do it, especially with MFP, it makes things so easy and fun! Feel free to add me if you want.

Hi, I sent you a friend request, I've been here a couple of weeks

welcome to MFP, nice intro!

Exactly, and then it's sustainable as a lifestyle

what an achievement, you look great!

You are doing so well, it's a huge victory for you to have stopped smoking and healthy eating is no 'fad' (we all know that!) I know how you feel though, after years of telling my how heavy I am and how much she wishes I would lose weight, now that I am losing weight she offers me junk food and sweets whenever I go visit…

:laugh: I don't think anyone would know what my car was if I told you.... 2006 Dacia Logan, Diesel. It's fabulous and I get great mileage (also has about 75 000 miles on the clock)

I thought 'insanity' was just a state of mind !

"Dale Doback: You and your mom are hilbillies. This is a house of learned doctors. Brennan Huff: You're not a doctor... you're a big, fat, curly-headed f***! " "Dale Doback: Dad, why are you talking to me like this? I'm your son. Dr. Robert Doback: I'm not buying that c**p anymore! " "Dr. Robert Doback: You know what I got…

I have lost the equivalent of about 2858 paperclips. (4kg or 9lb) I still have to lose about 16 bottles of wine worth of weight (21kg or 46lb)

looks lovely but you would be bummed if you spilled your champagne on it...lol

this is a great thread.... I ate 2 choco wafers at work the other day, didnt enjoy them, didnt crave them, didn't even want any more which makes me regret the whole thing even further
