oohhh... i love a good quesion dodge....

lol yeah, that and a screaming baby with a loaded diaper might be the biggest mood kilers.

lol amen :)

lol that soooo sounds like something I would do...

I am waiting until I lose another 10 pounds to splurge for real. I did have a margarita tho. but I counted it, I want to feel like I really deserve it.

Thanks. I am giving it all i got!

Hi MFP! I have been on for just over a week and have lost 10 pounds! I can't believe what just simple calorie counting and moderate exercise can do. Anyone else here from LA?

I take in whole wheat and grain carbs. I do quite arying workout routines. I am sure I just need to be patient. It is just so hard to be patient when you have been heavy for most of your life and are only now enjoying healthy lifestyle habits.

I do this every day too. I want to force myself to see what the fat looks like, just like MFP forces me to look at my daily food and caloric intake.

yeah, i was gonna wait about a week before i check measurements

not yet. I am one of those scale people

Every day I snack on low-cal whole wheat bran and blueberry muffins I make, which are nothing but healthy and full of fiber. I usually eat three during the day. I come home and make a veggie and protein-rich shack. I work out. Then I eat a simple dinner, maybe wheat pasta and shrimp. I EAT! I eat plenty. I just happen to…

I am at that place where I am eating 5 times a day but only healthy foods and leafy greans, grains. I work out a minimum of 30 minutes a day. Yet, there is no change on the scale! ARG!!!

umm... I actually do something kinda silly. First of all, instead of an alarm clock, I use a digital kitchen timer. I have for years. I set the timer for how ever many hours I want to sleep until I need to wake up, then start it right before bed. I have one that actually beeps lightly when there is 10 and 5 minutes…

lol amen to that. Though, mine would be closer to about a gallon. Long live java!
