Sound advice from everyone! Thank you! I've been struggling for about two weeks, so I'm not quite at the three week mark yet. There's that. I'm cracking down on logging. I did miss a few condiments this morning. When I added them, it was eye opening how many additional calories they added! I just ordered a food scale.…

For those of us who have to eliminate gluten, I suppose you could say we're "fans". Much like someone with myopia is a "fan" of their glasses.

I would check with your doctor before doing a restrictive diet change. There tends to be a lot of hokum out there that sounds amazing, but may not have any legitimate medical based research. I'm not saying that's the case here because I don't know, but my go to is always my doctor first before any big changes, just to be…

Tuesday goals: get a handle on my calories and macros, begin running again. I had started Couch to 5k and LOVED it, then I tore both meniscus in my knees. Terrible pain, but I have been able to avoid surgery so far. Doc said they should repair themselves, because aside from being overweight, I'm in decent repair. And I've…

Sunday sharing: I've had 3 babies in 4 years. October 4, 2013, October 5, 2014, and May 10, 2016. I gained the majority of my weight (100lbs) with the middle child as I was on bed rest and didn't watch what I ate. So far, since a week after having the last, I'm .6 pounds away from hitting the 50lb loss mark! I'm more…

I'm not in Canada, but I've got 50 to go! I've lost almost 50 so far, but I still have 50 to go!

I LIVE on that yogurt! That and they have new crunch kinds, delicious and all 100cal and under! I'll have to try the banana idea!

I've seen these but was a little hesitant. I'll have to try them and see how they work!

I eat apples every day and I dust them with a little bit of cinnamon sugar. Granny Smiths give me just the right amount of sour and sweet. I cut them into thin slices so I can snack at my desk throughout the day. Also unsalted pretzels, about 100 cal for 20. Hard boiled eggs. And lots of h2o!!

Thank you! It's just one of those little things that bug me. I figured I'd have to wait it out.

I love Green Machine!! I drink 8oz almost every morning. I make my own as well, but I always have a big bottle on hand in case I don't have time in the morning.

2 eggs 2 oz Wegmans Organic Ham 1 tbsp Wegmans Basting Oil Freshly ground Italian seasoning to taste Delicious!

This isn't just for me alone obviously :wink: Beef roast with carrots, baby potatoes, and asparagus. Not pictured is the massive sweet potato I baked for me because I don't eat regular potatoes :smile:

Starting paleo here in the next few days!

Good ideas! All of them! I'll check out the websites, too! Thanks so much!

You guys are making my mouth water, for real. I have to try these!

Me too! I'm going shopping on the 10th to stock up on a few things! I've never "eaten clean" before, I think the closest I came was when I was veg for a few years. Who knows, maybe I'll go back to that too! I also have 100 pounds to lose! I'll add you :) One of my hurdles is that my husband is a very "meat and potatoes"…

So for the most part, everything here has been a whole bunch of tl;dr, but I did read the snarky (in a funny way!) comment about pregnant urine. Then this response. And this absolutely disgusts me. "Duh, it's distilled urine! SHEESH!" Is what I'm reading. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's what I get from it. And personally I do…

Prepare for lockdown in t-minus 3...2...1...

I'll jump on that bandwagon.

I have no idea. I see this question come up a lot, and to be perfectly honest, I went to Target, got a 64oz Rubbermaid bottle, and I fill it every day. I make myself drink it. There's literally no trick. It's like running or working out. Sure, you can ease yourself into it, but you're still drinking it. Just drink it.…

Oooh I'm in.

I will be starting C25K today, just found this thread :) The husband and I are beginning a 4 day a week gym regimen as all of a sudden it's important we go now that he feels heavy *rolls eyes* At least he's tagging along, right?! I'll post my feelings when I get home tonight. I used to run in high school, I've been out for…

October 17th will be my three months. It's crazy how time flies! I'm so happy for you! I bet you feel so much better!

I ADORE underwire, but I've had this ridiculous case of "swamp t*t" as my mother loves to call it so I've had to ditch the wires and actually wear an ace bandage around my ribs to keep the gauze and such in place so nothing rubs against the rash lol. Oh the joys of being stacked!

It initially created tension between us because when he runs, he gets whipped into shape in like a month because of his metabolism. Of course being a 23 year old woman and having a relatively sedentary job, I have to metabolism of molasses in January. It's gotten better now though because we go to the gym together, we just…

Here's a typical response from me to ANY stupid question: How'd you do it? Do what? Lose weight! What do you...HOLY GOD ALMIGHTY WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON. Last time I got my arm tattooed, a co-worker goes "Did you get a tattoo?" I went "No?" Which of course prompted an odd look. They went "You're kidding, nice joke,…

Good luck girlfriend. When I was pregnant, I was a fit 160 and went from a DDD to a G. Biatches never went down. I have yet to find a non-maternity bra that fits nicely that I've spent less than $60 on. And forget about sports bras! I could go on all day. I will say, it's a very love/hate relationship. I love them because…

I didn't judge, I merely stated how a comment came off to me. I didn't say YOU seemed arrogant :) If you want to get into it, you are judging them by saying they are jealous. You know? It's no biggie, I'm not trying to ruffle your feathers or anything. Like I said, it was the comment that seemed a bit off, not you…

Say no. Put your foot down. Someone else said it as well, if you let this happen, you are saying it's ok to treat you like that. She will continue to bully you into things. Nope. Make her go to HER home, and tell her to take her crap with her while she's on the way. She doesn't pay bills, she doesn't contribute to the…
