Just out of curiosity, how many cals are you guys burning in an hour of Zumba? I don't have an HRM, but my trainer said it could be as high as 700?! I mean - WOW!

As a bread alternative, I like to use wraps - Mission brand makes a low-carb option (I think it has 18 grams per); I also have discovered Pepperidge Farms has a low-carb wheat bread. Now, these are not necessarily low in fat and calories, but lower in carbs and sugar. As always, everything in moderation. I usually have a…

I went from 170 to 245. Came home from the hospital at 213 - apparently I was retaining a lot of water at the end of my pregnancy.

My fingers swell when I work out, so wearing my ring can be uncomfortable. I usually just leave it at home:)

I try to live by an old Weight Watchers adage - "If you bite it, write it." :smile:

Jane Eyre is my all-time favorite book:) I am a high school English teacher, so I am spending the summer catching up on some young adult lit. I recently read "Little Bee" and am currently unable to put down the third installment of "The Hunger Games" trilogy. Loving these books!

I hear ya on the Burpees and Mountain Climbers. But my least favorite is definitely "high knees" - my trainer makes us do fast high knees for 1-2 minutes at a stretch in between sets of push-ups, squats, etc. and I HATE them.

I typically spend a few minutes in the morning plannng out my food for the day and logging it on MFP. If anything changes over the course of the day, I go ahead and adjust the log. I track my water as I go and submit at the end of the day.

Zucchini Chips: Slice into 1/4 inch slices Dip in skim milk and then into reduced fat bread crumbs Sprinkle with a bit of parmesan bake on 400 ( I use a vented pizza pan so I don't have to flip them; but otherwise I would turn them over after about 5 minutes) until brown and crispy on the edges Serve with Marinara for…

How could I lower the carbs on this one? Cut out the corn? It sounds delish!

Thanks for the words of encouragement! I am just at a point in my life where everything else seems to have fallen into place except this. I am tired of falling asleep each evening feeling bad about myself and waking up each morning feeling hopeless. I am sick of making excuses for myself and looking for quick fixes to what…

I was on Zoloft for about 9 months and gained 25 pounds. Now that I have been off of the meds for a few months, I am starting to very slowly drop the weight, but I am working hard at it. I am finding this weight much harder to lose than my baby weight was. I don't know if it is because I am 5 years older and my metabolism…
