Bump ... these are great ideas.

I plan out my weekends otherwise they go straight down the tube! I also exercise a little longer on the weekends so I have more calories to burn. For me the hard part is remember to drink water on the weekends because I'm not at my desk. So now I load up the car with water bottles on Saturday morning and keep one going at…

Bumpity bump bump!!! Thank you!

bump for later... looks yummy!

Thank you so much for this post. As someone who has a considerable amount to lose, often the threads lead to more confusion than clarity and it gets even more overwhelming. Again, thanks!

hmmmmm... I'd take any of these beautiful ladies and be happy if that became my goal body. Bump for later motivation!!! Thanks, great topic!

Question - do any of these work while you're swimming? That is one of my major exercises right now and it would be nice to know that I am burning the calories MFP says I am.

Congrats... you look great!!!

Bump... I think I'm making this tonight!!!

Popcorn!

I went to a shoe store that specifically has sales people who listen to what you need, what you are having problems with, watch you walk, jump, run in different sneakers before recommending a pair. And honestly, its the first pair of sneakers I've loved in a long time...

I'm the same way... if I don't eat protein for breakfast or enough for lunch then I'm hungrier all day. .. I'm at a desk job too and on top of it I'm a corporate chef so I write and think about food ALL DAY long... I have started drinking lots of water... making sure I have something healthy to munch on in the…

My husband went through this last year - he was in agony too. Anyway, he couldn't eat any fat what so ever... he pretty much ate grilled chicken or steak and steamed veggies because dairy and anything other made him miserable.

First I drink a big glass of water (16 oz) then if I'm still hungry - 1/4 cup of nuts (I love smokehouse almonds) OR Popcorn if I want to eat something for a long time... OR If I really want something sweet - greek yogurt with fresh fruits (usually berries)

Bump for later!

I weigh in on Wednesday and this is my first one too... 3 lb loss!!! Congrats to you too!

Congratulations... Happy Anniversary and thank you for being so inspiring. I have 100 lbs to lose and this was motivating!!!

That's awesome! Congrats!

Thank you... they have a lot to choose from! Hoping to get one on sale!!!!

I love this!!!

OMG so many good answers... that I've now added to mine: Get my boobs lifted and reduced (depending on what's left!) after the weight is gone!!! And then of course, a whole new wardrobe to enjoy! Thank you for this post... totally made me smile about the possibilities that are in the future.

Bump... i'd love to know too!! I've been using Cooking Light Magazine and website for inspiration.

Definitely a bump for later... this sounds awesome!!!

Sounds awesome... both recipes!!! I love cabbage and when I'm dying for something super tart and salty I'll even take a couple bites of sauerkraut from the jar. I'm going to try both these recipes very soon... How thin is the cabbage sliced ??? Shredded? or a bit thicker?

Thanks for the great ideas... I'm starting yet again and made a list of the ideas to start using ... hopefully to stay on track!

Bump... going to make this - this week!!!!

I'm so craving cottage cheese now! My favorite is I make a faux lasagne with zucchini slices (sometimes I dip them in egg whites whisked and brown them first in a nonstick pan), then chunky marinara sauce, cottage cheese (blended with Italian herbs, salt & pepper) and then on the top with a small sprinkle of Parmesan or…

I like the Ruffles Light Fat Free ones - they do have Olestra in them but taste much better than the baked ones to me and you get about 15 chips for 80 calories.
