I have a really hard time with that too. Sometimes if i mess up and have something bad and over indulge i'll think "Oh well, i already screwed today up, better just start over tmw and eat whatever else i want today" which is NOT the way to go. Im learning to take it one day at a time, one meal at a time. If you ate…

Organic low fat banana yogurt mixed with some instant oatmeal and bluberries :-) Breakfast

You can even consider telling her you'll run "with her" but not really "with her" if that makes sense. I've been training with a friend who is MUCH faster than I am and runs a longer distance than I do, however, we meet up together in the mornings for our long run day and start together but then go at our own pace. She…

Interval/circuit training. Its quick, makes the time go by fast because you are switching things up, and burns those calories quick and easy!

You can always try running after work before dinner? Or eat a lighter dinner, kind of cut your dinner in half and eat it before and after your run?

Raw almonds are a good source of protien and good fats :-)

You should always be careful when you are sick and want to exercise. I took a cardiovascular testing class and learned about working out while you are sick can effect every part of your body. Your blood circulates more, and if you have an infection of some sort you can risk it getting into your bloodstream and effecting…

Scales can be a tricky and maddening thing! I've always heard and read that if you should always weigh yourself the same time of day each time you weigh in. For instance, if you weigh yourself weekly, you should do so on the same day and the same time. I've always heard that right when you wake up in the morning is best,…

Hey I'm Megan, been out of school for 2 years now but still feel like im in college because im at that time period between grad school and a big kid job :-) Im 25 and in need of losing at least 40pounds! Im one who likes to always "start" dieting/exercise but never accomplishes her goal and this time im in it for real! Im…

Yeah me too! Or im on the computer with MFP or FB. I love the flexiblity of my job, i work as an Aide at a Phyical Therapy office and work four 10hr shifts, so i have 3 day weekends with nights and holidays off! However, I hate the fact that my paycheck is sooooo small! One day something will come. Whether it be Grad…

I found that if i order a starbucks iced latte with soy milk it gives me some of the sweetness im looking for becuase they use vanilla soy.

I feel you! 5 years of college and im still working at a college pay job...so frustrating!!! but just know that you aren't in this alone!

I'd like to join if there is still room :-)

I like to add fruit to my yogurt to mix up the taste a bit, like grapes/pineapples. Also, it sounds kind of wierd but its really good...if you add yogurt and oatmeal together. Wait for the oatmeal to cool down a bit and mix the two togehter. Sooo good! add some blueberries or banana too.

Thanks Debbie!:smile:

Ive never done one of these things before. Is there where all the stuff takes place? On the message board or is there a group or anything else i need to know before I start? Thanks! Do we start from today or from yesterday? Since we weigh in Mondays?

I would like to join! SW 210 CW 210 GW 170 Ultimate GW 160

I was wondering if I could join this group...I see that it says Closed Group but I just thought I'd ask. Im looking to get motiviated and help people motivate by sharing stories/recipes/ideas and I'm not sure all my fb friends enjoy reading that I ran 3 miles today...and what not lol. My name is Megan and I'm 25years old…

An Elliptical is better on your knees however a treadmill is usually more accurately calibrated. It will tell you the true amount of calories burned as opposed to an elliptical. Just make sure when you walk/jog you aren't holding onto the handles
