I'm a local girl - Milwaukee Brewers and Green Bay Packers all the way!!!

Sweetie - it's time for you to take a long, hard look at yourself and stop thinking about other people. You are the one you need to make peace with. If you're angry or frustrated or upset with yourself - try to be kind to yourself and forgive. As the others have said, make small goals and follow through. You will never be…

I LOVE Ak Mok Crakers and light cream cheese. These crackers are whole wheat with sesame in them. They taste good on their own. I got tired of spending a lot of money on the laughing cow so I switched over to light cream cheese. Just as satisfying for me, but way cheaper.

I'm making chicken tonight like this: take boneless, skinless chicken breasts. Cut into bite size pieces. Stir fry in some olive oil. Meanwhile cook some whole wheat pasta (I'm using spirals). Add to the chicken the cooked pasta, some frozen green beans, 2 cans of tomato sauce, and spices of choice. This is a casserole I…

.. a whole crapload of leftover Easter candy to your food journal :smile:

I need to shake up my routine a little and although I only eat whole grains and fruit that are high-carb, I want to reduce my carbs for a little jump start. My problem - I NEED crunchy. I do eat almonds. Any other ideas???

We don't have any stores around us that sell them either. That's why I really want to be sure before I put down shipping to try them.

OK - this is going back a while, but my friends and I went to see Night Ranger when we were 15 or 16. On the way back from the concert, we saw their tourbus turning into a local hotel. The cool mom of one of my friends was driving us and followed the bus. We got out and got their autographs. They actually asked us to go to…

I've been looking at the Vitamuffins that Hungry Girl and others just love. They look great, but some of them (especially the chocolate ones) have sugar alcohols in them. Has anyone had stomach problems with these? Does anyone give them to their kids? I'd like to just get the ones w/o the Erythritol etc., but I know my son…

I'm a paralegal in a law firm.

Wow you guys - thank you so much for the GREAT ideas and suggestions. I'm going to print off this thread so I can remember everything!

My 9 year old is a girl.

My family and I (kids are 5 and 9) are going to Disney World in June. Any suggestions on what we HAVE to do?

120 lb - my goal weight.

every droplet helps as far as I'm concerned.

clothes off after I pee and blow my nose.

If you can limit yourself on how many you drink - Miller 64 is not bad and will save you some calories. I'm actually a wine drinker which is really whacked on calories. I've had to limit myself to one on Saturday (for now).

Go Danny!! How are they going to decide the last 3 for the top 12??

Fitness chick- My grandmother passed away Sunday and I've been having a pretty tough time all week. Thanks so much for this post. I cried through it, but it gave me some comfort. Just goes to show you never know how you will affect someone you don't even know. Thank you so much.

Go Danny! My hometown boy hit it out of the park last night!! If he doesn't make the top 12, I'll be so sad!!

I feel for you. There is always a bunch of junk in our lunch room at work too. I bring nuts and drink lots of water. Sometimes chewing sugarless gum helps. Unfortunately, it really just comes down to developing discipline to stay away from the fatty treats and healthy new habits.

Love it!! I'm rooting for Danny Gokey 'cause he's from Milwaukee where I live!! (he's the one who's wife died - soooo sad.)

I don't know what can be done, but I know I would call child social services and see what the options are.

You will be in my prayers! Keep your thoughts positive and attract those wonderful opportunities to yourself.

You can get the DVD, but I used it for free on my cable exercise on demand channel.

GTO - did you log that in your exersise? I put it in under 50 minutes of high-impact aerobics, but I don't know if that's right.

I just did Jillian Michael's Boost Metabolism workout - thought I was going to die! I've been working out quit a bit but this was a killer.
