I mix my cottage cheese on my salads in replace of dressing, I like cottage cheese though. I also like it with just a little bit of a greek seasoning mix I found. I like it on my baked potatoes in replace of sour cream as well. Not so sure about the greek yougert though.

I also fight depression issues and it has really helped me, when I am feeling down or frustrated...instead of eating...I take it out on my treadmill. :-) But also, just seeing the small improvements, my cardo...being able to last a bit longer, my strength and energy!! I also encourage my kids (2-1/2 and 5-1/2) to workout…

Thanks Everyone!

I started mine today :-)

Wonderful job! Any inside pointers for the rest of us? Exercise, food....etc.

I did the 30 day Shred last year, I would love to join and start it again...more accountable goes a long way for me!! Let us know the start day you have chosen! Thanks and great idea!!

Way to go!! Keep up the great work!

HOLY CATS!! You are one beautiful girl! What a wonderful job you are doing!! Any pointers for the rest of us? Keep up the great work and cheers to the next 100!!:flowerforyou:

HELP!! Pizza party at work tomorrow...I need more will power!! Any advise?? PLEASE!!:sad:

I am very lucky, my children really do love most vegetables and for the most part we eat fairly healthy, once in a while if I don't feel like cooking I will make my kids mac and cheese and I go for a salad but 97% of the time they eat what I make. :-)

I have done really well this week. I am hoping to be able to break the 150's by the end of next week! Weekends are so hard for me and this weekend it is cold and icky (maybe snow), hard to keep motivated when I just wanna curl up on the couch with my babies. :-)

oh, boy, yummy.....bump

I have been back and forth from 168-163, I would really like to see the 150's again! I know I can do it, I did it last year but lost my motivation and gained back 15 of the 30 lbs I lost...so now I am starting. This is the ending to week 2, I lost 3 lbs last week, I had the flu for a day and a half so that helped, I hope…

I bought a HRM today and it was 200 calories different than my treadmill. I went to several different sites and calculated what "their" calories burned would be and my HRM was still way over what the sites said...I am not so sure I want to trust it. It was a $40 dollar Wal-mart one...I am going to return it and save my…

That sounds wonderful!

Always like new friends! I have a little less than 30 pounds to go...Everyone could use encouragement. Good Luck to All!:ohwell:

Thank you everyone! I am so looking forward to Spring...Wisconsin is not to friendly durning the winter months for exercising out doors. Maybe with the nicer weather I will get more motivation. :-) I really appreciate all of the pointers!!

Amazing!! I needed a little motivation today, Thank you...Thank You...Job well done!

Also, I was on the first spreadsheet but I am not on this one :-( Am I doing this wrong?

I agree, any advise would be appreciated!! I have two active little ones and work 10 hour days, if I got up in the AM it would help me out, I would actually get a workout in!

I am a fan of Malt O' Meal (orginial), its yummy, filling and only 130 cal per serving.

I would love to join, was thinking about it last night! This will give me the kick in the shorts I needed to actually do it! Starting tonight?

I didn't know: I actually like to work out (most of the time, LOL) Eating healthier and at home has brought my family closer (we actually cook together and its fun) How working out lowered my stress levels That doing simple 50 squats a day really helped the dreaded "love handles" (each bathroom break just knock out 10 or…

I said I was going to start it a month ago, now...I am going to start it!! I am trying to get up early in the morning and do my running so on my off days I will do the shred again. I really enjoyed the work out the first time I went through it, I saw results!

Way to go! This site has really helped me in maintaining where I want to be, I sure hope it as useful to you!

I am having a hard time myself lately. I have made some 5K goals and I still cant seem to "find the time" to get my butt out and exercise. I would love to help you account for exercise as I myself need that as well!!
