  • That is AWESOME! Way to go!!!! Keep up the great work.
  • ** bump ** Any advice for doing a 5K if it's icy or snowy?? I already know it's going to be COLD.
  • I know this is old, but does anyone have any idea how to accurately figure out nutrition information for this? Is there a tool on MFP for creating recipes??? I want to eat more of this ( I just made it) but I can't do it until I figure this out......) Anyone? Here's what I put it in it 8 oz fat free cool whip 6 oz…
  • HOly moly that sounds awesome. I'm heading to the store tomorrow! I don't have the yogurt.
  • Great advice, jc! You set yourself up for failure if you say "NEVER" a lot. It's so hard with food because we all have to eat!! Many other types of addicts can stay away from their drug of choice. We have to eat food. Our bodies need the fuel. It's harder to handle, in my opinion. And unfortunately many of us learn early…
  • I think it's an addiction too. To carbs usually. I snack on carby stuff and I get so mad at myself. That's why I really try to have "snacks" around that are more protein than anything else. LIke hard boiled eggs. That reminds me I need to make a new batch. I would try to snack on things like that. Or cottage cheese with…
  • I have a big goal (I'd love to lose 50, although closer to 60 or 70 would be better!), but it scares the heck out of me. I hate looking at such big numbers and it discourages me. It's been YEARS since I've lost a good amount of weight (I lost 50 within the year after having my now-11 year old son and it's been bad ever…
  • Way to go! You can do it! I'm 41 and trying to get back on track after doing well and losing 15 pounds last spring/summer. I did my first 5K (ran/walked - I'm NOT a runner!) in October and was pleased with how I did. But then once that was over, my working out went downhill and I used the "I'm too busy" excuse. Then I saw…
  • Not for FitBit. BOdyMedia and BodyBugg have a monthly fee once you use the free months included. But I've heard BodyMedia is the most accurate so I'm so torn which to get!! I guess whatever gets us moving more is the most important......that's what I think either one will do for me.
  • I did C25K back in August when I wanted to attempt my first 5K. I am NOT a runner. I don't enjoy it AT ALL. I do have to force myself to work out. I liked the beginning of C25K and kept pretty on track with their schedule and the timing of walk/run. About 1/2 way through it, I just couldn't jog as long as it told me to. I…
  • Good feedback! I'd love to hear others speak up too. I don't know if I should do FitBit, BodyMedia or BodyBugg (which I think is pretty much the same as BM, right?). I am trying to get back on the treadmill and jogging/walking to train for a 2nd 5K, so I know any of those will help with that. But I also am doing round two…
  • I was glad to come across this thread because I've been spending (wasting - ha!) a lot of time researching FitBit, BodyBugg and BodyMedia devices. Sounds like the BodyMedia one is the most current version of the BodyBugg, right? I will keep checking to see what people post about comparing more than one while wearing both.…
  • I'm online right now researching the exact same thing, so I was excited to see a recent post. I've been reading back through posts 6-12 months old. I now see that even BodyBugg will sync with MFP which I really like. It seems that BodyBugg is more accurate, but I don't like the idea of wearing it on my arm, especially in…
