  • SW 198 CW 195.5 That's one and half pounds from two weeks ago when I weighed in. Like Vicky technically it's bigger loss, but since I didn't log the gain I'm going to only count the one and half which still makes me feel fabulous!!! XD Happy Losing everyone!! ~Sarah
  • I think the two pounds lost is in relation to the original weight you put in. So if you gained after to made your toolbar, but now have lost, then it will reflect only how much you are under that weight. Of course, it could be a malfunction of the program as well. Hope this helps. ~Sarah
  • Dreamer- that sounds terrible. Will you have physical therapy to accompany the recovery? Can you meet with a nutritionist who can help you prepare for the down time? Did that person ever get back to you about sitting exercises? Vicky- I have a hard time getting my arms and legs doing two different things as well, but I…
  • SW 198 CW 197 One pound, but considering how bad this week has been that's exciting.
  • SW 198 CW 198 No movement, but Wednesday I had that huge awful meal right before bed then last night I made Banana Bread for my husband's work and ate some right before bed. So I guess I'm at least glad I didn't gain. This coming week I'm hoping that my logging will help me make it through and encourage me to eat well. I'm…
  • Ugh, I totally messed up last night and went to dinner with my husband and had all kinds of BAD stuff, and I was so sick this morning that I had to stop my workout to take the porcelain bus for a spin. It was awful. I feel better now that I'm done working out, but I feel like shunning food for the rest of my life! On a…
  • Hey Everyone, Today was tough. I didn't get in my exercise, but I tried Boca burgers for the first time and I really liked them. I went over on Protein and Fiber but stayed under my calorie total which means not as much fat and sugary carbs. YAY! I hope to get in some exercise tomorrow, but tonight I'm just enjoying my hot…
  • Happy Mother's Day everyone. Congratulations Sheila on a new baby Grandniece! I got up and did my workout today for the first time in what seems like FOREVER. I think I planned out a pretty healthy menu for next week I've just got to get to the grocery store. Today was left over day which means bad breaded fish sticks, but…
  • Hey everyone! I've heard lots of good things about Zumba both on here and from IRL friends. I want to try the wii game and see what it's like. I've been really bad about exercise and eating right lately, but now that the quarter is winding down and I'm about to graduate I'm feeling super motivated. I'm shooting for ten…
  • Good Job Sheila on getting your elliptical time up! I love the elliptical. It's my favorite machine.
  • What an AWESOME opening! Reading through all your posts is really inspiring. It's so nice to know I'm not alone! I love that you've started naming one thing you did right for the day. My day hasn't really begun yet, but I have high hopes that I will fit in a dvd workout and get some veges today. I'm SOOOO terrible at…
  • Yay for fruit and vegies! Does T.H.E team have a new challenge every week?
  • I would suggest changing up your exercise routine. Running is a cardio exercise which means your heart rate is probably up in the aerobic which means it goes into super-efficient-calorie-burning mode. Take that half an hour and do strength exercises instead and keep your heart rate below 150 (like squats, push-ups,…
  • I saw my coworker cut hers in half then turn the half inside out and score the flesh then scoop each piece out.

  • This year my purchase goes straight to Operation Cookie Drop. Goodness knows those guys and gals will enjoy them a helluva lot more than I will, plus they won't face the guilt I would if I devoured the whole box of samoas. I support the girls, they get a little piece of home, and I don't gain 3 extra pounds the next day.
  • Thanks for the link! I've never heard of this.
  • Kentucky Fried Chicken.... I... hate... the.... colonel....and he hates me back. I used to like the skin on poultry period but now it just grosses me out completely!
  • When the craving hits, I go to the grocery store and splurge on something super yummy and still healthy. Like warm delights mini when I need something sweet or a lean pocket when I want something hot. Something from Subway also makes me feel better.
  • When I was REALLY little (and it was thought of as "baby fat") my mom called thighs "thunders", so when I tested for Kindergarten (which I got to skip) the only question I missed was my "thunders." I knew my fingers, toes, hands, and feet. My mom stopped saying it after that. Now it's really funny to think back on. Of…
  • I read in Fitness once that most people in the age of sugary soda confuse their thirsty signal with their hunger signal so definitely drink lots more water. Fiber helps slow down the digestive process and keeps you fuller longer and my nutritionist seconded the combining of a carb and protein (ex. apple and low fat peanut…
  • Thank you so much! You are an inspiration! Good job and keep up the great work.
  • Thank you! I LOVE this site! The free part is so amazing because of the extensive ways it adapts to individuals. There are other sites out there that either aren't free or don't adapt. Thank you for touting the great things about it!
  • 1. Books and dvds from the library (Kim Lyons' Your Body, Your Life is my all time favorite workout) 2. MFP :D 3. Just Dance for the wii and EA Active 1
  • Definitely the thighs rubbing together as it makes it sheer torture to wear a skirt.
  • HOLY COW that's A LOT of protein!!!!! I'm going grocery shopping for this stuff NOW!!!! It sounds SOOO good!
  • Remember the order of operations in that equation or your results will be skewed!

  • I know a bit of French and Italian, but I'm fluent in knitting. k2p2k2tog :P
  • I can waste 3 hours on the message board in what seems like a heartbeat, but when sitting in my 2 and half hour class time moves at the speed of smell. (There needs to be a sweatdrop smiley)
  • When it's illegal to ride on the sidewalk, pull off the road allow the line of traffic to PASS you, and then proceed without holding up traffic!!! It drives me nuts in the U district when they don't do this!!! When I'm driving in the mountains and I know I'm not brave enough to do the speed limit I pull my car over and let…
  • But having to touch a germy toilet seat to put it down and then proceeding to wipe our very sensitive-to-infection parts is NO good. Therefore boys should have to touch it to put it up because their fleshy parts are not as prone to infection. Toilet paper doesn't provide enough of a barrier, case in point we still wash our…
