This is awful, but my husband is such a bad eater and very, very picky. He will not eat chicken, pork, or fish. He will not eat any veggies except for lettuce, I have never seen him eat a piece of fruit, and he will not eat any two foods mixed together. After 15 years of trying to change the way he eats to no avail, I have…

I used to have a hard time breathing when doing some yoga poses in my class. no, no problem!

I just used my polar f4 for the first time, and they told me when i bought it that they just changed the straps. mine is cloth, and comfortable. I have a huge skin issue if anything is too tight and I have a lytex allergy, which means usually any type of rubber will give me welts.

I got the F4. It has the comfy strap and was ten bucks more, and the instructions were a fraction of the ones for the F3! I can't wait to try it out in the morning. Report back then. PS: I would never, never spit a sacred cookie :laugh:

OH I DO I DO I DO!! I just don't know if I can. He beckons me early in the am, before the alarm goes off, before my husband can see me get on it. Ack! I am thinking about boarding him right now! And the worst part about it, he has spent alot of time shaming me, making me feel bad about myself, but yet, i keep going back…

public!

we have a deep frier party every superbowl. everone has to come with something different to put in the fryer, and the best recipie wins. I am going to cheat a bit BUT...... I am going to bake the chicken wings pre-party and then sauce them with different sauces and put the into the broiler to get crispy. you can eat 8…

The store told me I could return for the upgraded model that tells calories burned (more money), so I am taking it back today. I was just so excited about having the darn thing!!!

I use a home elliptical and I have a pro form. (cannot remember what model number) it was about $499. If you are going to buy one, either you or someone you know must be good at putting these type things together or pay for the store to deliver and set up. mine moves great and has no issues...... but. it only has 10…

just came back from buying a heart rate moniter. I am hoping it will be well worth the $85 I spent on it.

The best thing about this I have noticed is that they don't hurt when I work out, and they don't hurt so much when it is my time (sorry man readers!)

although we always eat together as a family, we do not eat the same meal here. I fix a meal for myself and maybe the kids will have some. Tonight, I made grilled chicken, and put broccoli, mushrooms and pineapple into the wok and sauteed. Mixed in 2 tbls. of Kens lite asian dressing (it was yummy!), served with steamed…

maybe it is becasue I live in Pennsylvania, but I find the farmers markets to be very comparable to the store when buying locally grown. The corn in the market is always cheaper than the grocery. Unfortunatly, it is very seasonable buying. So, when it is warm and the crops are coming in..... i do go to the market!

I have taken alli for 3 weeks. Here is the thing, I have had no issues at all (in the bathroom) BUT...... I think with a 1200 calorie diet boosted to about 1700 with work out, I am eating about 1600 calories a day. Now, saying that, taking alli is not allowing my body to absorb that intake hence sending my body into…

I am on my elliptical everyday for 45-60 minutes. Today I was on for 60 and it said I burned 1400 calories, I use the imput here on when I log in the workout and for 60 min, it says 676 calories. I am more apt to believe the latter.

I do the elliptical for 45 to 60 min. 6 times a week. I do yoga once a week.

I keep a box of Godiva chocolates on my nightstand. When I go to bed at night, (i am ritualistic) I get under the covers, and grab my box. I painstakingly pick one piece, and savor it. it works for me.

raised in Tampa, Fl., now live in Harrisburg, PA.

THAT sounds good. I'm writing it down!

braces. botox. maybe the braces before i get to my goal, they may help me get the rest of the way there. shopping. a vintage dress. bikini. allow my husband to chase me. go outside in the summer in a tank top and shorts. not be jealous of the skinny moms at school. wear rings again. not get welts from my clothes being to…

I was having this problem too, put in your weight again, it should work!

I am addicted to baby carrots. I drive ALOT for work, and I keep a bowl of them in the car, eat them all day long. They are my best diet friends. Keeps me away from fast food.

I have heard alot about the cheat day, and decided to have one. funny enough, I did not really cheat well. I went to costco and had a frozen yogurt sundae. it was really good too. maybe next time i decide to cheat.... i will work at it harder. I think the name "cheat day" just sounds bad. it makes it sound like you are…

I like the special K crakers (not the tomatoe ones!) the originals are a bit sweet and crunchy, which I need something as and alternative to fruit. They are 90 calories per serving (16 crackers, I think) I also love animal crackers. they are 120 calories per 16 crackers.

Its called loseitorloseit.com (I think) I thought it was funny, my husband, not so much.

mmmmm... there is one in my fridge right now. breakfast!

4 pounds.

I would eat before you go, that way, you won't be as hungry for high fat foods. also, work out a bit extra that day. good luck! I am staying right inside my box so no one can offer me food....... for now!

yep. i walk around with a bag of baby carrotts. they seem to help. although, nothing helps like chocolate, unfortunately.
