Hi tslee! I'm a mom of three too. I was just saying to another member how after forty we have to work so damn hard for every lb to drop off, and motivation is key. For me, I've been focusing on how much stronger and better I feel, and have seen a huge increase in energy in the last two months. Keep going! It's going to get…

Hi! I'm in the same boat! I've been on " this round" of MFP for almost three months and I totally get it. After 40 we have to work SO DAMN HARD for every lb to drop off. Here to support ya! We got this💚

hey there-great question since these are staples in alot of homes. For butter we use earth balance soy free. i love it for cheese-we use daiya cheddar shreds, these are great with anything cooked ie pizza grilled cheese enchiladas etc but i have not had anything i would recommend for cold things like sandwiches. I do like…

...this is why i private messaged you, like i said this types of thread always get nasty. why cant people give advice or opinions without getting nasty or offensive? noone i telling anyone what to eat, just giving an opinion on what they feel is more healthy. i hope you continue to educate yourself and find what i right…

i have a 14 year old daughter, we are very close and i will talk to her about anything she wants to talk about so i think the best advice on here has been to talk to your son, tell him how uncomfortable you feel. i opened a facebook for my daughter last month, attached it to my email and i made up her password so she knows…

hey there, almost five years for me, my hubby and our 3 daughters. we love being vegan. it has totally opened up our worlds to new foods, new flavors and we feel good about our choices. I am not raw,and do enjoy the occasional snacking and treats, but feel free to add me and i will help anyway i can :)

my hubby and i went cold turkey-literally overnight, steak for dinner woke up veg-head:) its just what was right for us, it was an epiphany thang. the first couple of days were very difficult so the advice i always give is to people going vegan is what i wish someone wouldve said to me- plan for it. buy some books, print…

i had an ultra, but i washed it SEVERAL times and it finally fell apart on me. then i got a zip for xmas. i like it alot better than the ultra-the rubbery cover stays on clothing much better. the program is the same and you get emails every week with your stats-i just got one last week congratulating me on my first 1,000…

hey snowy, weve all been there girl, you try so hard to make good decisions, but get swept up in the moment. anniversary dinner is the perfect storm, you wanna make it special and not worry about calories, but then ya put an emotional effect into the meal=romance and love when those should come AFTER the meal:blushing:…

this sounds amazing! thanks for sharing:)

took my daughter shopping for new clothes since she too has dropped a dress size since starting roller derby:) ate some awesome kale, chick pea and butternut squash soup. then...tried HIIT for the first time and loved it so much i did 3 videos. gonna be sore tomorrow:)

love your picture:)

you have beautiful hair:)

as far as fullness, i would suggest adding some sort of grain, brown rice, quinoa, barley, millet, polenta maybe? im vegan but i dont think i could do all veg all the time. with prep, i like to wash and cut in advance, big zip locks-slice onions mince garlic chop carrots celery etc, but my biggest is washing i hate having…

gonna be completely honest here- i had sex with a guy that was extremely skinny when i was a little over weight not much, and after he said to me" ive never felt so skinny" ---i felt like a whale.

I posted a recipe under happy herbivore group on here too-these chickpea frittatas are my #1 breakfast, I make a different one every week. today I made a sundried tomato-spinach-onion-garlic-field roast(grain meat)-and jack cheese(daiya brand) its so friggin good! little franks' red hot or low sodium salsa on top...im…

i drizzle 2 tbsp of smoky bbq saauce over mine-thats all and i love it so damn much i could eat it every day:)

mine's open, and it'll always be open. I dont think about profile creepers, im on here to be accountable for my eating and exercising- i dont feel the need to "hide" anything. and ive seen people post questions on here that i feel the same about and it's as easy as looking at their diary to get the answers which makes me…

well i wont be the one to argue with wika, but i know from how my body responds that if i dont eat within two hours of waking up, my body DOES hold on to weight and the longer i wait to eat, i will continue to put it off and that leads to "night time eating disorder"-dangerous ground for anyone trying to lose weight, and…

eco plant brand has a "cheese" cracker- ive never seen them in stores but ive seen them on veganessentials.com and probably pangea. my kids love love love" tings"-which are more like vegan cheetos and we get them at whole foods.

hmmm. well freedom of speech is a beautiful thing, but im sure some people will be offended, which i dont think was your intention. while i dont feel i judge people for being fat- i do understand that feeling of looking at people and thinking," why are they doing to themselves dont they know how bad it is for them, dont…

leavin for san diego soon and margaritas will be on ice at all times:)

can i ask what your sensitivity is to them? ive read the link with headaches and defiantly found the weeks where i have too many night shades i get small headaches.

yum lifetime basics vanilla is the kind i use too, they had it on sale at sunflower market when i picked it up, i use rice milk with it and any frozen fruit i have on hand with ground-up ( uncooked) oatmeal and flaxseed peanut butter:)

yup yup! vegan anyway...dieting-depends on the day :)

vegweb is such an awesome website!!! -"all that soy did me in"-ofcourse it did! if you are gonna go vegan, try not to make the mistake most peeps do, being vegan doesnt mean eating soy all the time there are many more options for a well rounded diet. too much soy really isnt good for you, everything in moderation:)

i skipped the veggie thing, and went straight to vegan. goin veg is great and when he sees how great you feel he wont be skeptical:) good luck!

i go here before bed and log the next days exercise and food- that way i wake up and already know what im eating that day, and what i have to do for exercise that way i dont get distracted/lazy etc. cuz ive already held mysefl accountable. the past couple of weeks ive actually been doing two or three days in advance-i have…
