Congrats! What an amazing accomplishment and inspiration to others. Good luck in the rest of your journey ahead.

Thanks. Was hoping to get more feedback about supplements. I drink a whey protein already.

I am 5'2 and when I started I was 138. I am now 124. My initial goal was 125. I honestly don't know what my ideal weight will be. My goal now is to be fit and healthy. I am thinking at this point its going to be more of how I feel and look over what the scale says. I am not overweight anymore, which is good. So I think you…

Agree with this 110%.

That is why I joined as well. I gained about 15 myself. MFP helped me. I am already down the 15 and have decided to lose 6 more pounds to be 120. I actually used MFP a couple a years ago that is how I knew about it. I had lost 30 pounds so I knew that it would be the right choice to do it again. Good luck to you.

Bump for later

Since you wake up so early it probably makes it difficult for you to eat anything. If you are up at least 30 minutes earlier than your work out time you should eat a little something. Fruit, yogurt, or you could even have a small glass of juice.

So jealous. Have always wanted to go. Have a great time.

I am half Italian would love to learn to speak it.

Most of the girls I know would all prefer longer over shorter. I guess I should said it that way instead of saying most women. Sorry about that. :wink:

I cheat every Sunday. If I don't I would indulge everyday in so many horrible things. It gives me something to look forward to. Also, I don't cheat all day. I will cheat on lunch or dinner. I have cheated on both a few times.

This is an obvious. All men like long hair. I think most women would prefer to have long hair. If I could have longer hair I would. Mine is super damaged due to the high chlorine in my water which fried my hair. Working on trying to get it back to being longer. My boyfriend doesn't hate my hair short, but would prefer it…

I just started weighing my foods this week. I went out and finally bought a scale.

Thanks for the compliment about my weight. I am 126 and want to be 120. I don't know if it will happen or not and I am more concerned with trying to get the last bit of jiggles to be more toned. I am by the way 5'2. So 120 would be fine on me.

I have changed my settings to a higher protein diet. Hoping this well help as well.

I actually have only been doing about 10 minutes a day on the lifting weights. Today will be my first real day of doing strength training. I will have to eat up the processed food I have so I don't waste a ton of food. But thanks I suppose you are right. I know its crap and I do cook for my boyfriend but for myself, I just…

Wow, thanks. I try to eat well. I do however miss the non sugar free creamer. I always buy almond milk as I found recently I was always having problems drinking cows milk with stomach cramps. Now that I have the almond milk I am much happier. I will consider your suggestions. Thanks.

Also, glad to hear that the sugar thing is no big deal. I have no health issues, so I am good there. :happy:

I am working on getting my calorie intake higher as well. You will see on some days I am actually higher. Hard to get above when you get used to the 1200 but I am slowly doing this as I have realized I will never reach my last 6 pounds unless I eat more.

You are welcome. You are gonna love it.

This is the best advise and was going to give you something similar. You don't need two of saying the same thing. So I go with Ditto.

You are welcome. Its very yummy. :happy: I am going to try the recipe with pumpkin as well.

loving all the suggestions. :happy:

I didn't think you were picking on me, lol.

more great ideas, thanks everyone.
