I like lemon or balsamic. I use a bit of olive oil sometimes too. If I am nearing my calories and I don't want the extra. I have been known to put a couple of sprays of the Pam non stick olive oil cooking spray. It does give the illusion of olive oil with out the added calories. I do know some are so against those sprays,…

I have been using the Mio Link for about a month. It's pretty accurate. I tested with the HRM on the treadmill etc and with another HRM/chest strap combo. They are with in a few points of each other.

You look great. They are the ones with issues!!! What kind of family talks behind your back, who says eww your face and who would say you're to fat go join sumo wrestling????? Toxic, jealous people! That's who. You need to set boundaries. Explain to them that their opinions are not needed, and they should keep them to…

I mix it with FF cottage cheese ( probably would be good with FF ricotta too) and a bit of agave. Yum!

I am starting it today. I was wondering the same thing. I think I am going to use a HRM.

I did WW first to learn how to make smarter choices and portion control. Now I just use MFP. I go to the gym a couple times a week and started doing yoga. I think I finally found out why I always failed at diets. I always would try something extreme...no carbs or no fat. I would feel so deprived that I would quit. This…

I have been using the body media band since March. I love it. I like being able to see my results real-time on my phone. Also, it helps me stay on track to keep my weekly calories at a deficit to lose. Like the other day I ate more than burned on my Bday , so I know how much to cut back each day to make up for that day of…

cute but I like ladies :)

Not everyone has the luxury of getting a new job on a whim. My advice would be to bring proteins bars and put them in your purse. Take a 5 minute bathroom break and chow down. They legally can't deny bathroom use. ( in the states)

I am down 28 lbs and 2 pants sizes. I have the same issue...bottom heavy. So, I probably am down 3 sizes in the waist.

I have the same anxiety about doctors/dentists. For example, I had a baseline mammogram done yesterday and I have my self convinced I have cancer. The few days it will take to get the results will be torture!! So, anyway. I had a deep scaling on my teeth, because of bad plaque build up. It was not that bad. Dentist offer…

I use the Bodymedia Arm band

This confuses me too. I guess MFP builds in your BMR when it figures out your calories. So, any extra calories burned should be eaten??? IDK so confusing. I can't wrap my brain around MFP philosophy. I log my food sync it with my Bodymedia arm band and use the deficit there to make sure I am on track to keep losing 2lbs a…

I am diabetic ( I take oral meds) Since I started MFP at the end of Feb I try and stay under 200/day. I follow the rule of nothing white if possible. No white potato, rice, bread etc. I use Dreamfields pasta because there are only 5 net carbs. I eat brown rice, sweet potatoes and light wheat bread or levash bread, quinoa…

I follow WW to lose so I don't log fruits and veggies that are 0 WW pts on MFP. I use MFP to sync up with my Body Media arm band. So I just log food that has actual points. So far it has been working for me. I have been losing about 2lbs a week.

AWESOME!!:happy:

I got my 3 month blood work results and everything was normal! :bigsmile: February my sugar was out of control, my kidneys were not right and my triglycerides were way above normal. May Blood Feb Blood A1c 5.7 A1C 8.6 Triglycerides 110 Triglycerides 189 Total Cholesterol 158 Total Cholesterol 229 Not bad for 3…

a flourless, sugarfee chocolate cake. from a recipe I got from Whole Foods. It was like eating chalk.

I made SF/FF meringue cookie. They were weird but good at the same time. I found a recipe on ALLrecipes.com. I sub the sugar for Splenda. I also tried a flourless cake again subbing sugar with Splenda. A bit weird and dry...so I am trying to experiment with making it more moist.

I do WW because points are easier than calories. I also do MFP because I use the Body Media Fit band which is not compatible with WW. I pay $20 a month for WW which I hate but I am curious if this script will also tell you when you need to lower your points. As I lose weight WW tells me where to set my points so I continue…

Where can I get this. I currently use Walden Farms PB...not so good.

I have had my Body Media Fit band since March. I love it. I wear it about 23 hours a day. It seems pretty accurate. I have lost a 22 lbs so far.

I recently made a Pea Hummus. I wanted to see if I could cut down on calories and fat. So I used blanched peas 32 oz bag, 10 cloves of garlic ( love the stuff), fresh parsley and cilantro, juice from a lime, salt and pep to taste, and since tahini is what puts the fat in hummus I used a 5.3 oz container of nonfat Greek…

Maybe it's not your size he sees as your barrier, but your lack of "go-getter" attitude. I don't mean that to be rude, but he hasn't said that was the reason or even hinted at it (from the info you given) just because he knows you would love the position doesn't mean he sees the fire in your eyes to obtain the position. I…
