i love doing this! I also use non-fat sour cream (naturally yours) for a dipping sauce to cut the spice without ranch or bleu cheese.

i love them in a sandwich or open-faced toast. I mash a quarter of an avocado on a piece of toast, add a slice of tomato and a little bit of onion with some salt and pepper on top and it's sooooo good. they're also great in omelets. mix them with some egg whites in the morning and it's delicious. mmmm.

i just realized how much more i like running to music than to watching the tv! the beat just keeps me moving. sometimes i'll make a bet on a sports game with my gym buddy and put that on while listening to music. current favorites: black eyed peas lady gaga pop music and rap in general i tried to use "eye of the tiger" to…

I weighted in today and was at 136.0! That's my first time within the "normal" BMI and 1.2lbs down from 5 days ago. Woo-hoo! SW: 149 CW: 136 GW: 120

I didn't believe it, and I still don't understand it, but I agree that the change seems to happen fast. My weight hasn't changed much in the last two weeks (stress, TOM, etc) but yesterday I put on a pair of jeans that hadn't fit the week before and this morning I had to try on three pairs of work pants before I found a…

not sure where you live but safeway and a lot of grocery stores will deliver if you're too tight on time to go grocery shopping.

there are lots of shoe stores that will watch you run to see if you pronate or supinate (or look at your old shoes -- are the soles worn out asymmetrically on the heals?) and recommend shoes that will support you better. you could also have one leg longer than the other and an insert could help with that. definitely worth…
-
agreed, doctor knows best. just couldn't resist a few more information questions =)
-
Any chance you're on an ACE inhibitor? Is it worse at night or anything? It's unlikely that weight loss would really help with any of the things you listed. Maybe a little with GERD, but that's usually more of a chronic throat clearing than cough. Do you have other allergies or symptoms? Did you doctor have you take…

I believe a low sodium diet is usually less than the 2500mg recommended here. If you have hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, or something else where a doctor told you to be on a low sodium diet then that is most likely not low enough. Ask your doctor what he or she had in mind. I think it's usually depends on how big…

sleep can definitely have an impact on weight. i'm not completely sure of the mechanism, but the two are definitely linked.
-
Tons of things can have an impact on weight loss, stress being a common one. Are you having regular BMs? Time of the month? I haven't looked at your food, sorry. I too weigh myself everyday despite so many people on here saying not to. It's true, water and everything else can make you fluctuate day to day, but I still…

i actually hate that it encourages being under the calories. i'm at 1200 calories/day and have reached a point where i'm so adjusted to it that i'm having trouble consistently hitting my calories. i don't want to be encouraged for under eating.
-
I'd love to join. I started around 150 and want to hit 120. I hit 138 this morning. I love seeing that scale move =)
-
i really enjoyed that link. thanks so much for posting.
-
welcome! i feel the same way! this site just makes it all make sense. of course we can do this! i'm glad you've found your way here.
-
what workouts do you recommend? you can also just watch them on your computer if you have netflix, but the roku box is pretty great =)
-
thanks. good to know i'm not alone. i ate some fruit and pretzels and went grocery shopping (good to go when not hungry :smile: ) and hopefully stuff will sound better tonight.
-
This could be totally wrong, but I compared their green tea with the green tea lemonade and it shows 80 calories vs 130 calories which makes me think that the lemonade part (assuming they're similarly sweetened with the syrups and the only difference is the lemonade) is 50 calories. Since most tea has no calories, I would…

I list it as "aerobics - general" because I never know. Someone put up their calorie count from doing it and it seemed about right (~200+/-), which is what I'm most worried about so I decided not to fuss over the exact type of exercise.
-
i'm in! how long do i have to drop these 5 lbs?
-
Hey all, I'm pretty new here and so glad to see this thread. I'm 27, 5'2" and started around 150lbs. I realized, cliche as it sounds, that I am having a really hard times in relationships because I'm so unhappy with my body that I don't understand how anyone can like me. I feel like I'm using my weight as an excuse and I…
-
Thank all! Hopefully I'll make good choices. One of the nights is at a vegan restaurant and I feel like everyone thinks that means healthy but I fear they use a lot of grease and frying to try and make it taste better :-/ Also is there a good way for estimating the calories at restaurants for the food blog? I think I might…
