I have lost almost 3 lbs... I haven't updated my weigh in yet... maybe i can change my exercise regimen... i don't see a change in my inches though... it has been the same for a while...

I have been looking into getting a hrm... right now I am using a pedometer to track my steps I take... I walk up and down 6 flights of stairs at work and up and down 6 flights of stairs at home as well... I also walk up/down a hill everyday to catch the metro to work... Which is only about a 10minute walk one way... On…

It seems as if everything I eat has lots of sodium in it... And my sugar count is high because I do eat lots of fruit, but when I do that my sugar exceeds for the day so I figured I would eat less of it. I am so confused... :sad:

I noticed the sodium level when I first started was so high... I am trying to watch that as well... And the water, its so hard for me to get the 8 glasses in a day... I am trying... the only time i can really get 8 glasses in is when I work out extra hard at the gym... Otherwise I may get 6 in a day at the most... :(

I would like to know that answer as well, myself... :happy:

Good job... WOW... Looking good too... Keep it up...

I am going to try some of these out myself... I am now really conscience about the foods I eat as well and what I intake in my body... Its very important to know that.

I would suggest just getting the fruits and veggies that you like... If you want to add yogurt you can, you don't have to... Also, if there is a particular juice you like you can add it, but you don't have to. I have recently just made my smoothies with frozen unsweeten strawberries and a little bit of OJ and a dash of…

thanks for posting this... i have been looking for nutritional facts from restaurants all on the net and can't find too many listed.. I am really surprised at the pizza hut link you posted... I thought pizza was so high and calories I just stayed away from it...

Congrats... :happy:

thanks for looking it up for me... I was really looking for a store local to me as all I kept coming across was online stores... I will give them a call soon as it is not far from where i live...

I may have to use this site at work as well... Thanks for that link...

I use a food scale to determine the measurements... I bought mine from bed bath & beyond and it was 20 bucks... I am sure you can probably find one at your local walmart for cheaper maybe... that would help a lot of food measurements.

Glad someone asked this question, because I was curious about steak too... I have been eating fish and chicken and cut the beef... but I see its ok to still eat it... Watch the size and cut of the steak... Thanks all for the info.

M scale and recent pics told me to join this site... :)

Well, I have lots of bored days @ work & just like you Jon my job blocks everything... So I listen to my ipod, go walk around sometimes... step outside for fresh air... but lately MFP has been here to help me pass the time quite well... Thank you MFP...

I feel your frustration as I have always worked office/desk jobs for the past 9 years now... It is very difficult... I realized now that in order for me to lose this weight I have to take the iniative and become more active during and after work... I sit at my desk majority of the day, but i do try to take the stairs more…

Some songs that I love to work out in are: Ester Deen- Drop it Low Rihanna- Rockstar Keri Hilson- Pretty Girl Rock Ludacris- My Chick Bad Remix Five Star Chick Anything fast song that will keep my attention and keep me working out... Those are my top songs that keep me going during the work out sessions... :)

I was looking for an alternate for the maple syrup myself and I can do without the powered sugar... I love fruit on my pancakes anyway without the syrup so that should not be a problem... :)

I just got finished reading this article on CNN myself... Its so true...

This sounds so tasty I want to try this out before the week is out and let everyone know how it taste... It sounds delicious though... What did everyone have with the chicken... (i.e., salad, brown rice, etc)? Any ideas?

Good Morning, I am closer to the hyattsville area.. I used to live in Bladensburg, now i am in capitol heights...

Hi MzBug... Dreamom i wish you luck to as I did not have a weight problem all in school but now that I am getting older I want to stop the weight gain as I have not had any kids yet so I am determined to get the weight off and keep it off...
