Congrats on your first step on your journey. Feel free to add me for support.

I found PB2 at my local Wal-Mart recently. Bump for ideas!

I can SO relate as I'm sure many can who are kicking their crutches to the curb and revamping their eating habits and lifestyles. Instead of fuel for my body, like you, food became fuel for my stress level way too often. You have made sharing a meal what it should be, a time for nourishment with no distractions while…

I work from home, so no takeout or drive thru. I like to double recipes so there are leftovers for a day or two. As I am putting away leftovers, I measure and pack my lunch for the next day so it is less hassle to remeasure and weigh it all the next day. Then when I enter it into the tracker, I can just recopy that meal…

Bump!

I used this site the first time about 2 years ago and had a great group of friends that were both an inspiration and a way to feel akin to people that are o:smile: n a journey similar to your own. We each travel our own road to better health, but it is great to have friends who give encouragement and also lend some…

Yay for you!!!!!!!! You have made the decision that enough is enough. Me too! This is a great site because you can log EVERY bite and feel good about your accomplishments when you get to add your exercise. Having friends is a fantastic way to glean support and be held accountable. Please feel free to add me. Best of luck…

Hi SWaT Team and Happy New Year to All! I lost 30 pounds since joining MFP and due to slacking in logging and too much holiday snacking, I gained back 7 pounds. It's a New Year and as you probably have I've rededicated myself to a healthy lifestyle and exercise (can I get a Amen to that!) This group is a great idea as I…

Great idea for a fall morning breakfast! Thanks.

Definitely want to try some of these! Time of the year for some great crockpot soups and stews!

Zucchini, Black Bean, Turkey Burgers I put together this simple recipe the other night and the burgers turned out really good. I shredded 1 cup of zucchini and squeezed all the moisture out between paper towels (this is important to get as much of the moisture out as possible so the burgers will hold together),1/2 cup of…

The main ingredient in these burgers isn't zucchini, but have zucchini in them. I haven't made these yet, but plan to soon. http://greenlitebites.com/2011/06/03/bacon-cheese-inside-out-turkey-burgers/

"I do the yoga/pilates on netflix too...it's so convenient! Plus it does feel really good after. I think the video I do is call Crunch: Super Slim Down or something- the instructor's name is Ellen Barrett." I've been wanting to do some yoga through netflix. Thank you for including the name of the one you do, I found it!…

Yum, thanks!

MFP is aimed at not being a "diet," but a change in your lifestyle, so unless you plan to eat the same thing for the rest of your life (which is impossible), I would switch things up, Plus, you pretty well have to change it up to give your body the nutrients it needs. Since you are starting out, why not sit down with pen…

Bump!

Saving for later!

Thanks for all the GREAT recipes! Will definitely have to try some.
