Thanks for the website. :) I def will be trying those out.

200. once you cook pasta it plumps up with water. so 2oz turns into a cup of pasta. just like when you cook rice.

I agree. There's no way they eat that many calories. Im interested in knowing about that too.

For me it's an everyday battle. It helps to remember why your doing it. What are your inspirations? And how great are you going to feel when you see yourself meeting your goals. I've been struggling with staying motivated and have definitely not been very positive at all lately. Sometimes I check out the success stories.…

Thanks so much for all the support guys!! :) I really appreciate it. Gonna hit up the gym with a friend in a couple hours. Im feeling better already :)

I haven't really ever used videos but walking is def a great way to get the weight off. My sister lost 100lbs just walking in about 6 months. And she didnt really do much to change her eating habits, so if your doing both you should have great results.

SW- 313.5 Week 1- 310.5 Week 2- 309 Week 3- Week 4- GW- 298.5 Lost 1.5 lb this week

im actually a mayo fan but the tangyness of the miracle whip adds to the flavor of the sauce so ill probably go for a lower fat version. but your right. two very different things.

Thanks for all the ideas guys. I think Ill have to try out a few of the ideas and figure out what I like. more then likely they'll taste diff but maybe ill find a new healthy casserole that I love just as much as the original.

Im totally in. Love this idea. Will def push me to work out much harder. Ill go for 3500 this week. :)

I agree, jump back to it. And drink lots and lots of water. Itll help re-regulate your body and clear out all of the extra sodium you probably ate. Im going to NY next week and Im super nervous about how Im going to manage it. Trying to eat well and get in a good workout while out of town is going to be extremely difficult…

2 weeks in as well. Doing the best I ever have. I usually stick with it until I get bored with my limited healthy food choices. Im learning that my choices arent nearly as limited as Ive always thought. Just gotta get a bit creative sometimes. You can never have too many friends or too much support. Ill add ya.

3/1- 130 minutes- ArcTainer, Elliptical, Incline Treadmill 3/2- zilch 3/3- 65 minutes- Incline Treadmill.

same goes for me.

I dont have an HRM but when i compare the database to what the machines at the gym say MFP is wayyyy high. Even double in some instances. Ive read a few articles saying that even the machines and HRM's can be very inaccurate. The HRM has to be constantly updates with your stats in order to be any good at all.

welcome! I just joined this site about 2 weeks ago. I hope you like it just as much as I do!

It takes time. Don't get discouraged. You may not notice anything right away and then a few weeks down the road you have a holy crap moment! I only lost 3 lbs my first week and I was like booo. I want more, but then I think well 3 lbs a week gives me 12 lbs a month and 144 lbs in a year. That gets me almost to my goal…

ok. first weigh in... 310.5. lost 3 lbs

Even looking for some text buddies for those moments of weakness when im not near my computer. inbox me if your interested, can…

I have a friend who is going to school to be a nurse and she only has on normal sized hand. she can do things with her little hand but she doesnt have fingers that grasp and she is making it work. I think that going to school to be a personal trainer is great. you'll learn everything you need to know to get yourself…

I completely understand this. Thank you so much for sharing. I get like that some days. Where I eat and eat and I feel so horrible because my stomach is hurting and I just keep eating cuz its better then thinking about why Im eating. Then I feel gross the next day because I just put all of this horribly unhealthy food in…

3/1- 130 minutes 3/2- zilch 3/3- 65 minutes 195/1440

I checked out the FitBit. Seems great. Anyone have more info about that one or perhaps even have it? It's not a heart rate monitor. Which worries me about the efficiency of monitoring calorie loss.

wow. thats a lot of hours. kinda scares me. but Im in. 2 hours and 10 minutes down so far! 3/1- 2 hours and 10 minutes 3/2- zilch 130/1440

You look great! congrats!!

I really like this one thanks. I had a rough day today, but Im pretty sure once Im able to go grocery shopping (hopefully tomorrow) It will be easier to plan my meals ahead of time and it wont seem so stressful.
