Beer. :sad:

Exactly! :drinker:

Fantastic progress!!

I've been eating Almond Thins (Blue Diamond - Almond Nut-thins Gluten-free Crackers Hint of Sea Salt) and I told my boyfriend last night that they really remind me of tortilla chips! They have a thicker consistency, but the flavor is similar to me. He didn't really agree, but who cares? Lol! 130 calories gets you about 30…

Why wait? What would be the benefit? I'm legitimately curious what would deter you from starting now? I'm just over 200 also...about 40 lbs. from my goal and very much prefer ST to cardio (but I still do cardio). The only drawback, as many have mentioned is that you won't see the scale move as quickly as you'd like. But…

Hi Mary! LOVE your profile pic! (Huge Ravens fan!!) I'm from the DC area.

Oh, S***! @ diespel ETA: Oops, I didn't know I'd get edited for that outburst (sorry mods - it was impulse!)

This is great advice, and I'm going to give it a try - thanks!

I was legitimately homicidal this past weekend. My poor boyfriend. :explode: But for me, that comes on a week or so before anything that would sideline me, like cramps. When I know it's coming (my hip pain - we all have our "tells"); I have the Aleve on the bedside table and set my alarm an hour or two before normal waking…

Sure, why not!

NICE!!!

YES to Quest bars! I think they taste better than most protein bars, with 1g of sugar and tons of fiber. There's a YouTube channel dedicated to recipes using Quest Bars. I haven't watched, but read about one idea to cut the White Choc Raspberry into 6 pieces, microwave slightly and then cook them. Apparently they come out…

Wait... so truth IS allowed?

Will happily take it off your hands! (And pay for shipping)

I LOVE PB, all kinds - even PB2 (but only in protein shakes). And now I know why this thread is titled "Beware" - because I just retrieved the jar from my desk and now I'm in search of a SPOON!! :bigsmile:

I'M SO HAPPY IT'S ALMOST FB SEASON!!!! Personally, I'm a Ravens fan. My BF is a Broncos fan, and I support them as long as they aren't playing my Ravens!!! However, I used to work for the Chargers & they'll always have a special place in my heart.

Deal! :happy:

Yep.

I didn't look at your diary, but it's helpful that you keep it open. Kessler is exactly right & I agree with everything he said. I prefer to chew my calories, rather than drink them. That ONE CHANGE ALONE will probably set you in the right direction. I also used IIFYM.com rather than the standard MFP settings because I…

I've always said if someone knew the trick to "flipping that switch" they would be unstoppable. I don't know what did it for me, but I went many years without it happening. My suggestion is to narrow your focus. Make small changes; set small goals and keep building on them. Decide you're going to exercise 3 times a week…

Bump

Sure! Why not? Couples have met under stranger circumstances. I met my boyfriend online (dating site) 4 years ago. I introduced my best friend to a guy who misdialed a number and accidentally called my house. They've been married 15 years & have 2 kids. Go for it!

Exactly!

This made me LOL!

I love the support of this site and in my opinion, having great friends to cheer you on is key! I've also been surprised to findthat cheering on others brightens my day!! Everyone can feel free to add me~ Best of luck, all!!

Pre-log. (Particularly helpful if you'll be out of internet range for a few days.) I always have the same thing for breakfast, so this is easy. I can add other things later, but I've still logged in. Create meals. I have a salad everyday. Sometimes it's a little different, but I can add the entire meal, saving myself 7 or…

THIS!
