YUM! This sounds awesome! I will have to try it! Thanks for the idea of Fat Free Cool Whip. I wonder if the fat free Cool Whip comes in chocolate?

I always try to get between 35-40 grams of fiber a day. You have to start small and work your way up or you could have some digestive issues, like gas, diarrhea or even really bad cramping. So start with 12 grams and add 5 grams every few weeks until you get to where you need to be. Also, don't know if you know this but,…

On their website, it appears that a whole chicken breast (4.5 ounces) is 177 calories, so I would go by that but, if your chicken breast had any sauce on it, then also add in the calories from the sauce also. Here are the calories for each of their sauces. So I would add the chicken breast calories with the sauce calories…

I heard the same thing about vitamin b12 and I have just started taking a vitamin b12 supplement to see if that helps me. Mostly because I am having trouble staying awake in the afternoon at work, when I am near my computer. So I thought I would give it a shot. Since it's only been a few days, I don't know if it works yet.…

This sounds amazing! I also loike the variations that everyone makes to theirs too! Can't wait to try it!! Thanks for sharing!

Which fitness magazine? I need to get that issue! :)

YOU ARE EXACTLY RIGHT!

I love Winsor Pilates. I haven't done them in awhile but, I have been considering starting them again to help tone up. I bought my dvd's at Big Lots for $2.99 each! My sister in law swears by them and so does a friend of mine. I just recommend getting a very nice yoga mat for the floor work. The instructor is great and it…

:drinker: I'm with you!! Except for this Friday, it's my birthday and I really wanted to hit my 75 pound mark by my birthday, so I will step on the scale on friday just to see if I reached my mini goal. Otherwise, I am in the rest of the way!!!

What does your food diary look like and how long are your daily exercise sessions? It could be that you may need to bump each daily session by 15 minutes. Or you may need to eat more fiber. Fiber flushes fat, and the recommended daily allowance for fiber is 25-35g of fiber per day. Most people only get about 10g a day. 35g…

I have the same problem. I have lost 72 pounds and most of it has been from the waist up. I just measured myself the other day and finally started to lose a few inches from my thunder thighs and ghetto booty. I think the Step Aerobis dvd I have been doing 3x a week is finally starting to work. I am also considering adding…

I totally agree!!

A meet and greet would be awesome!!!

So sorry to hear that you are going through such a difficult time. I'll be keeping you in my prayers. Hope everything starts to smooth out for you and your family soon.

I know what you mean! Since I've been eating healthy, anything deep fat fried makes me feel ill! I feel so much better now that I eat healthy! No more constant upset digestive tract! I will eat 1 french fry every now and again but, that's my limit! I eat oatmeal, fruit and salads when I go for fast food and I feel so much…

Glad to know that the taping helped. I will definitely try the stretches too! Thanks so much for the advice! Glad you are pain free now! That is so great!

Thans for the great tips! I'll have to find a tennis ball around here! Definitely going to get new shoes, so thanks for the New Balance suggestion!

TWENTY FIVE THINGS YOU PROBABLY DON'T KNOW ABOUT ME 1) I am a Christian and I love Jesus. However, I will never cram GOD down anyone's throat or look down upon anyone because I am a Christian and they are not. 2) I am a people person and love making new friends. I will talk to a total stranger just to get to know someone…

Ha ha ha! I feel the exact same way!!! That is too funny!

I am going to go check this book out! We have it here at our library! YAY! Thanks for the suggestion!

I'll have to look at my Walmart when I go this week. Where are they located at in the store? Are they in the frozen section or the produce section?
