Either a subway club on honey oat w/ provalone, honey mustard, lettuce, tomato, cucumber olives & salt & pepper OR a turkey on honey oat w/ the items above & add avacado *Yum*

I only smoked for 6yrs...started off with black & milds, then moved on to prime times, then cigarettes. I quit for 2 weeks because i had my wisdom teeth removed, once they healed i had a smoke, didn't like it so i quit again; until we had a family gathering and i had a few drinks [i get the urge to smoke when I have more…

I log everything so the holidays are no different, however since i know what I will be eating I try to eat lightly in the morning and have a small snack for lunch. I drink a lot of water too. On Easter [this year] I samlped a little bit of everything [in a circle on my plate] once it was filled i stopped and ate that. If…

My goal is 1500 and I try to get at least a 30 min workout 4 times a week...sometimes it's a 60 min workout 3 times a week. I try not to eat back all my calories that i've burned though

^^ This is what i usually try to do...i end up eating two slices of a delight pizza without feeling guilty. However the time i get all the greasy, full fat pizzas I cut one of the bigger slices in half [because I'm used to eating 2 slices]. In either case I enjoy it and move on :wink:

I'm in...i have no problem finding what's wrong [even when i do really good]. Time to start bringing myself up instead of down :smile:

Hello all! :flowerforyou: I'm 22 and 5'2"....i started this journey at 197lbs and now weigh 168! I have about 30-35lbs left to lose until I reach my goal of being between 130 and 135. It has taken me almost a year to lose the 29lbs and I look forward to share this experience with other fun sized people like myself :drinker:

Crystal Light packets :smile:

^^ Same here...i log walks, house keeping, and even gross motor games i play with my preschoolers esp if we play tag, plus my intentional exercise. I think it's all about what works for you

I'm 22 and also 5'2". At my highest, i weighed 197 [in august 2011]. I currently weigh 168 and my goal is to be between 130 and 135. I was set in my ways when i first started [in march 2011] and took control when I hit my highest weight. I know that if I can lose 29lbs in almost a year, then anyone can do this! We can be…

Challenge accepted :bigsmile:

I started out at 194 lbs [in march 2011]. Then I gained 3lbs so 197 was my highest [august 2011]. I'm currently 168 and my goal is to be between 130 and 135 lbs. I'm 5'2", so that should be a good goal for me.

Thank you all so much! Your adice is very much appreciated :happy: I plan on doing what i need to do; if that means getting up a little earlier or taking 10-15mins breaks from homework then i will do it. I'm not going to let my busy school scedule get in the way of me becoming a better me. I have to take charge :smile:

I move on but am more mindful of what i put in my mouth because i know i messed up

I use it....it helps you monitor you're fat intake (i started using it because i was always going over my fat; like 102g a day...not good). The only side effect i had was [when i had too much fat at a meal/for the day] an oily spotting that accompanied gas. After this happening twice, i've learned to really pay attention…

DONE So much for splitting them up....i was in the groove so i just did the 50 at once (on each side for a total of 100) and another 10 (on each side).

^ I completely agree...i have had a few friends and family members say "Oh looks like your DIET is working" and i simply reply "My DIET is a permanent change, and yes it is working." I've come to think of the word "diet" as another word for what i eat/ my eating habits not something i'm doing....too bad they're not able to…

I'm in...1/2 this morning and the other 1/2 in the afternoon

A new outfit or pair of shoes! But if i don't have money for that, i treat myself to an at-home spa day; soak in a warm bath, facial, mani, and pedi works for me

I don't always eat back my exercise calories...i try not to for the most part. I usually have a deficit of 330-400...210 at minimum I drink 64oz of water a day

Thank you all for all the information :happy: I've been only using the scale [even though some of my clothes are fitting a bit looser]. I'm going to start using other measurements to record my progress

I try to weigh and measure out everything before consuming it, when i can't find it in MFP then i add my food using the info on the package and go from there. When i'm not able to do either i find something that is close to it [but that rarely happens]. I do log everything [even when i know it's something "bad"]. I will…

I ate mashed potatoes, potato soup, and chicken broth (because it was so hard to chew) after getting mines out.

I just discovered spaghetti squash a last month & i tried out the Herbed Spaghetti Squash recipe from Emeril Lagasse. I didn't like it too much because one of the herbs gave it an after taste. So last week i made some again. I just baked it in the oven (cut side down in some water) covered with foil for 45 min. then cooked…

I'm 22 and i've been self conscious about my weight and unhappy with myself since the age of 10! I always acted like it didn't bother me until my senior year of high school. When college came i had this stress put on me to be perfect and do well in school even though i didn't really want to and this stress led to me eating…

Done! :bigsmile:

DONE: 40-LEVEL 1 60-LEVEL 2 100-LEVEL 3 I feel accomplished. Thanks for the challenge :smile:

I'm in

Count me IN!
