I would just like to let everyone know that I WORE MY BIKINI today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Had to put extra sunscreen on my tummy (hasn't seen the sun in a while!!) But, I felt GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!! :happy: MAJOR NSV!!!!!!!!!! WOOT WOOT!!!

Thanks! Great ideas! I just had some strawberries. Gotta enjoy them while they're in season! Yum!

Profile pic is the new bikini.....still feel "ify" about this!!!!!!!! haha!!!!!!

Thanks Everyone!!!!!!!!!!! I decided to buy one!!!!!!!!!! I didn't get that one, but opted for a black one because it had a matching tankini top (incase I change my mind!!) BUT I still bought one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :happy:

Sounds delicious and like a great plan!!! Enjoy!!! :smile:

I just tell our server not to bring them out. If they are not on the table....no temptation to eat them!!! (if I am with a group of friends this does not go over so well....then it is up to me and my will power!!! lol)

haha...ok...I might have to go back and buy it...just cause I buy it doesn't mean I necessarily have to wear it just yet right? I just don't think my body is toned enough yet. Still a little jiggly!! I'll get there!!! :smile:

Haha!! Thanks!!! I think I have some more toning to do though!!! I think I just haven't ever shown off my stomach since I was 10? hahaha.....gotta get used to it I suppose!

Pic is in my pics....Not sure how else to post on one here!!! YIKES!!! hahaha now I'm showing a billion people!!!

Hi and welcome to MFP!! I found this site a while ago, but have been actively using it everyday for almost 2 months now. I can tell you, it is excellent and so are all the people here!! I too just found out I have high cholesterol!! :( I have my food diary set to public, so feel free to check it out and add me as friend if…

Greek Yogurt is my new fav!! I really enjoy Brown Cow strawberry (less $$$ than Chobani and just as good!) I also like Emerald's Almond and Walnut 100 Cal packs, Carrot Sticks, Cabot 50% reduced fat sharp cheddar cheese snacks, Fiber One 90 calorie bars, Special K protein Bars, Kashi Bars, 100 cal popcorn, peanut…

These are brownie muffins. Super easy and really moist and good. Go great with milk!! http://www.hungry-girl.com/newsletters/raw/367 I used Pillsbury reduced sugar devils food cake mix and MFP recipe calculator calculated fewer cals. If you're in need of a low cal chocolate fix for dessert...I would give these a try! They…

I just had blueberry greek yogurt with 1/4 cup of Special K protein mixed in....LOADED with protein. Does have some carbs...but I feel that the protein outweighs the carbs. Good stuff!!

i bought a digital one because I like being able to read to the next decimal place. I also think they are easier to read than the needle. I too get discouraged because my scale at home says one thing and the one at the doctor's says another. I just say go by the same scale as far as how many pounds you're losing. And weigh…

I also like Quaker Weight Control Oatmeal...the variety pack comes with banana bread, cinnamon, and maple and brown sugar. It is really good and is also filling

Just tried Kashi Go Lean Crunch, the Almond Flax one. I had it with Reduced Fat Vanilla Soymilk. It was very good and really filling!

I just made Tilapia for the first time last week and it was delicious!! I kept it simple....olive oil, salt, cracked pepper, and fresh lemon juice and then I grilled it. I know it is nothing that probably speaks "Pizazz" but sometimes simple tastes amazing!

What kind of oatmeal do you buy/how do you prepare it? Thanks!

My trainer told me to drink a serving size of low fat chocolate milk after the workout. I have also heard this from several others too!:smile:

Panera has a lot of healthy options I think. And all of the food I have had their is very filling. It is fast...but no drive thru window. The nice thing is that all of their cals are posted right next to the product...super convenient!

Good idea!! Any suggestions on good healthy movie snacks to bring??

It depends....on the days I work out I would say anywhere between 200-380?

Good ideas! I will make my food journal public so you can see it if you want. I would love feedback!! I am clueless when it comes to this stuff...that's why I got a trainer to work with. I just want to get this weight off!!

I try to shoot for around 1300. I am 5'6 and I weight 160 pounds. But on the days that I do work out I do not eat my calories back...so that may be too little?

Hmm...I have not been measuring myself...I am not sure I know how lol. Maybe I can find out and try that. When I work out with the trainer we do a lot of strength training so maybe I am building muscle?

I actually am not eating back my workout calories...and every time I don't do that the little note comes up saying I am not eating enough calories. I should eat them back?
