It what i'm here for! :flowerforyou:

I'm stationed over seas and the banners i love are the "Looking to meet someone in APO?" Or "So and SO is waiting for you in APO" I'm like... seriously APO... that's not even a real location... It's a military post office. You know, maybe i will just start randomly walking up to people at the post office and ask them if…

I've always been one to dig into that old box of clothes to find that one thing that now fits and i know exactly what you mean about the self-hating portion and getting down on yourself. What i started to do is go into it expecting them not to fit and remembering what they felt like the last time they didn't fit. that way…

UGH YOU GUYS SUCK!!! (okay not really) I'm overseas and will have to wait at least a week or two before AFN starts showing it!!! I got so impatient during the first season to watch the next episodes that i ended up paying for it off of itunes! and now i deploy in two weeks.... UGHHHHHHHHHHHH :grumble: :sad:

i've noticed a huge difference in my abilities and endurance if i have just a banana or piece of toast before i run in the am... anything more and the belly gets way mad at me! i also noticed i don't want to gorge myself with a huge breakfast after working out if i eat something small first... oh and a nice medium glass of…

:flowerforyou: :wink:

no problem! :wink: figured i was't the only one out there!

i really enjoy cooking and creating things from scratch. well one issue with that is never having an accurate calorie or nutrition count. so i started searching around for a counter and stumbled across this website www.nutritiondata.com not only does it create a nutritional fact sheet for your personal recipe, it also has…

Well today is my new day to start. I actually packed a lunch for work and brought heathly snacks so I have something else to turn to besides the snack bar here at work. I talked to a friend and if I can get out of work on time I'm going to Zumba with her to work off the frustrations I'm going through with out the kids and…

I took my kids to the states about 3 weeks ago preparing for my husband and my deployments. Now the husband just left about 2 hours ago for his deployment and the pity party emotional eater that I am just kicked in full gear! I ate a stupid Chocolate Cholate Chip muffin! Wasn't even really hungry. Just walked into our…

Junsu... Where exactly is it that you live? I'm an american stationed in Japan and i understand the frustration you have with trying to log the asian food equivilants. I've sort of figured out how to work it and add certain foods. If you need any help please let me know! I have nothing but the utmost faith that you will…

I have 5 tats and love them all... each with a special meaning about me or the stage i was at in my life. I found this suggestion list online and it follows pretty close to what i go through myself everytime i get a new one (going through the decision process right now actually) 1. Consider the reasons why you want the…

Oh PL i so feel your pain on this subject. I'm AF also and I hate sitting there staring at the little sign KNOWING if i don't pick the correct smiley face they won't take me serious.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO after i got off work i suggested to the hubby that we ride our bikes to the BX (base exchange) so we did and 8 miles later we made it back home!!! it was so awesome! we just rode and talked and laughed! it wasn't a lot of calories burned but it was fun!!! So after all the hard work moving today and the…

I must say Japan is an amazing place with some absolutely delicious food! Which can make things tough from time to time!

My actual name is Kimberly Jo. When I first started dating my now husband, he for some reason started calling me kimmerly and it just kinda stuck!

So I just finsihed the first half of my moving project here at work! I had no clue what to put it under so i just did "moving boxes" and made my time a little shorter... according to the database it was 400 cals burned! I guess somedays I don't mind working so much!

It's Tuesday morning here in beautiful Japan! No gym work out this morning for me but I do have to unload and load a ton of heavy gear out/into a deployment bin so i'm sure i will be burning some cals doing that. The goal tonight though is to hit the gym for some cardio and maybe some weights with the hubby before dinner…

I know i'm a few days late for starting this group but i really need help! I was on such a good track with this a few months back but after my 35 day TDY to Thailand it all went down the drain. I've gained about 3lbs while i was gone and then just maintained. This week is my starting over week. I made the husband go…

I've been gone from MFP for a few months. I'm in the USAF and was pretty much addicted to MFP until i was sent on a TDY for an unknown ammount of time (ended up being 35 days). Let's just say while i was gone it was rough keeping up with normal (healthy) eating habits and actual exercise (other than walking everywhere)…

pecksun is absolutely right! take a break from running (or any activity with excess impact) for a few weeks. i had shin splints to the point i was waking up in the middle of the night with sharp pains pulsating through my shins. I am in the military and finally went to see a doctor that appeared to know what was going on.…

You know what... i'm right there with you! I make every excuse in the world why I haven't been able to exercise but i have this perfectly good stationary bike hanging out in my closet that i had to convince my husband to buy me and only used it for a month... It's coming back out tonight and I will shove all those excuses…

thanks girl i appreciate it. i'm sure the combination of not seeing my family for over a month and not having access to a gym to work out frustrations isn't helping much... at least i can say i have proven to myself the importance of diet and exercise. i haven't been eating all that bad but i know i haven't been working…

As some of you already know I left over 30 days ago to assist in the relief effort for Myanmar. Well prior to leaving I was on an amazing track and had lost 8lbs. Well the past weeke I started noticing I've been feeling rather uncomfortable again in my own skin. I finally found a place to weigh myself and i've gained 5 of…

Thanks again everyone. Things are going really well. Busy but well. Deliveries are going as planned and the people are very grateful. It might be going in small steps right now but hey as long as it's getting done that's all that matters!!!

i'm not on the actual aircraft itself but lets just say i help them get off the ground and am great friends with the people who are actually flying the missions. i wish i could make all of you realize how much your support means to me and everyone else here. honestly the eyes are welling up right now!!! :smile:

no thank you. we honestly couldn't do it without the support of people like you!!! :blushing:

I know not many of you know me. Those of you that do already know that I proudly serve in the USAF. Today I was part of an amazing event. I'm TDY in support of getting aide and supplies to Myanmar. If you haven't heard or read we took the first batch of supplies to the country today. I must say it's an extremely proud…

Oh of course I post my message then the site works... grrrrrrrr here's the link! http://www.hungry-girl.com/chew/chewdetails.php?isid=1309

Check out the Hungry Girl website! Search for Wing it on! (I tried posting the link for it but for some reason it's timing out right now :mad: ) I made these the other night and they were so amazing! The kids even loved them which for me is an added plus!!! :bigsmile:
