I am in - thank you - Week 1 SW 321 Goal 306

I enjoy the 100 calorie yogurt pops and the root beer float pops from the Schwan Man!!!

I do the same thing - I like to plan for the day - I write out what my daily meals and snacks will be - then I log it in MFP - and I make adjustments before I even eat. I think I do this for a couple of reasons - one is because I can be in better control before I eat - I am able to undo a decision before I eat it - if I…

I always get fish - I like salmon - baked, chicken breast, ground turkey, turkey breakfast sausage or turkey bacon, no fat cottage cheese, greek yogurt, baby spinach, celery, carrots, green onions, broccoli, eggs, black beans, tomatoes, melon, strawberries or blueberries, low calorie whole grain bread, tuna fish, soy milk,…

Congratulations on your success and thank you so much for the inspiration - it is exactly what I needed today!!!! Enjoy every minute of your new life!!!

I put my frozen fish fillets in a glass pan sprayed with veg. spray and I squeeze lemon over the fish and bake it in the oven at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes or until flaky - I enjoy it with a baby spinach salad w/lemon and light virgin olive oil - I love it! When I have salmon - I save a piece for lunch the next day…

You are beautiful and doing just wonderfully! What an inspiration to the rest of us! Congratulations on your success!

I like the Chobani and I add a squeeze of lemon and frozen blueberries for breakfast or a snack. I have also just tried the Athenos strained which I prefer for a substitute for sour cream or mayonnaise - it is a little drier in texture.

Do you get a lunch break at work? Try to find time to walk during any breaks you have...also when at the grocery store park as far away from the door as possible. Invite your husband for a walk around the block either before or after your work day. These are the things that have helped me when the balance is totally…

I like to put a cup of cottage cheese into my sugar free jello when I am preparing a small box of it - when it sets it makes it a sweet treat - I really like to use lime flavor jello and add a little crushed pineapple as well - or orange jello and add a few dried cranberries along with the cottage cheese.

I would like to join the support group - Thank you for the help and the accountability - good luck on the journey! Name: Stacey MFP start date: Jan 2011 MFP start weight: 349 current weight: 327 goal weight: 125 #1 reason to lose weight: I have been overweight all my life and want to "feel" how it is to be a "normal"…

Rather than drinking the Pepsi, diet Pepsi I drink club soda, on ice - with a squeeze of lemon and a squeeze of lime - I enjoy the carbonation of the club soda and the flavor of the citrus - and it helps me get my water intake - maybe it could help you to replace one or 2 Pepsi's each day. Good luck!

Do not beat yourself up - I only weigh myself every 2 weeks - because for as much as I need to lose the weight - I am working harder on making a better life - which includes working out - I have never ever ever worked out in my life - I now go to the gym 6 days a week - I take every Sunday off - and on Sunday if I want to…

Work out - walk - just keep moving - empty your home of the unhealthy choices and be prepared - I keep celery in my fridge clean and in a container to just grab - also have discovered the "Wholly Guacamole" only 100 calories - I make that my tv time snack when I watch my favorite shows - better than chips or popcorn even -…

Treadmill is my machine! Still walking, but hopefully will someday be able to run!

I am in...good luck and be strong everyone!!! You can add me as a friend if you like.

Thank you for the suggestions - I will be looking into the WII - have thought about that one before - and I really liked the idea to stand more than normal - that is excellent - thank you so much!
