omg I can't wait to try these - thanks for sharing!!!!

I eat all the "worst" foods first too! I'm a save the best for last kid (I also save the "best" piece of a burger till the end!). I actually wish I wasn't like this....then I could eat the best when I'm not approaching full and can leave some of the "not best" foods on my plate.....

Dancing!!!!!!!!!!!!! No question about it.

I like people who are trying to change the world for the better :)

Men who are short have issues, I swear it's true.

Can't wait to try this one!!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!

I freakin LOVE LMFAO!!!! Going to have to look this one up. You should see me shaking it to "Shots" and "I'm Sexy And I Know It" in my Fuzion (Zumba-on-steroids) class!!!!!

MY GF predicted this would happen so we bought ours back in Aug/Sept before it was even out - I hope you find one!!! Seems to be the toy to get this year after all!

Look at it this way, if you decide to try and stop logging - there's no reason you can't start again! It's not something everyone wants to do forever so I think it's completely reasonable to stop, see how it goes, re-evaluate how you're doing without the tool (via the scale) and decide on the next course of action based on…

I too am trying to live my life as positively as possible. I grew up in a very negative toxic family and feel like a "white sheep amongst a family of black sheep". I used to feel exactly the same way you do :) I am also an overthinker! What I learned was that I have two options, shut these negative people out or rise above…

AYCE sushi is the devil - but I LOVE it! Love suhsi pizza!!!! To be honest, AYCE sushi is the reward my GF and I give ourselves when we've lost a lot of weight :P It's amazing how much less we eat when we go now.

I have a family that I have "given up on" but get this, they don't know! My family is really screwed up, mostly due to Mental illness that no one wishes to acknowledge. I had to make a choice, continue to invest my time/feelings into people who were in no way doing the same or "give up". Once I had kids, that choice became…

<RANT> I hate commercials!!! People trying to tell me what to use to look younger - who wants to look younger? What's wrong with looking your age? Commercials for foods that are so freakin' bad for you - why are we promoting that crap? Did you diamonds say "I love you"? I didn't either! Good thing a commercial told me so.…

I'm glad I clicked on this in my news feed! Thanks! :)

Horrible is relative :) I think this is a FANTASTIC option instead of what *I* would consider a "Horrible" option like McD's etc.

I'm definately more aware of the foods I'm eating - and they make a difference! Sodium has go to be one of the worst culprits. I've been counting calories on this site for a year and a half and slowly I have eliminated most processed foods.

You REALLY don't lol

Can't access Youtube here at work so BUMP

I logged mine as "High Intensity Aerobics". I got an HRM for Christmas and when I started using it I noticed that the amount was VERY close to the calories MFP was giving me for "High Intensity Aerobics" :)

I grew up in Montreal (mostly in the Lasalle area) but alas I moved to Toronto 15 years ago :P Not very helpful but the topic title made me look! I miss Montreal sooooooo much!

The key is to think of it all as a lifestyle change instead of a diet. I know I know, EVERYONE "says" that....but you have to believe/live thinking that way! Right now yes, my calorie deficit is to lose weight, but I'm thinking about more than just that. The choices I'm making within that "calorie budget" are GOOD choices,…

Holy cow girl, I knew you were kicking butt at this but the pictures are unbelievable! What a transformation! That bikini is going to see the light of day for sure!!!

I freakin love Jalapeno's and this thread is making me seriously drool. Unfortunately, my backside doesn't like them anymore and I have to limit the spice :sad:

I'm not going to be the only one to say this guaranteed :) ZUMBA! or any dance workout actually :)

I'm right smack in the middle of a crazy week right now. I'm always overdoing it on salty things too.....just great

You are so right, my biggest regret is not having taken my measurements :(

I weigh in once a week :) I didn't take my measurements when I started and have been kicking myself ever since :P

DANCING!!! I started with Zumba over a year ago and I now consistently go twice a week to a Zumba-on-steroids class called Fuzion. I have never ever stuck with something as long as I have with dancing aerobics and I don't see any end in sight! I also dance with my two young daughters whenever music comes on ;) I love…

YES! When I was a WW member and dealing with "points", we were taught that we could "bank" our points and carry them from one day to another, as long as we "reset" after the week was over. We could also bank all our exercise points for whenever we needed them, again, within the same week :) I do this all the time :)

I'm a room temperature water drinker as well :) I can't drink it if it's too cold. I had to force myself to drink it regularly and have set up "water times". I have to finish two 750ml bottles here at work for my day so I just put that target in my head and worked hard towards it in the begining. Once I kept it up for a…
