Yay!

http://www.skinnytaste.com CHECK IT OUT!

AWESOME! I love hearing these so we start focusing LESS on pounds lost and are able to identify other ways this lifestyle change is helping us feel awesome!

I am a Lane Bryant junkie but I don't pay full price for nothing in that store!!!! Here is how: 1) go online and check for coupon codes/printable coupons/discounts. If you have a smartphone, they will even get the code number off of your phone if you pull the coupon code up on your internet. I can walk out of there for 2-3…

Michelob Ultra 95 Calories Skinny Margaritas---100 calories (applebees makes OR buy at the ABC store to make yourself!)

I think the consensus is pretty well on target! No confusing messages here! :-)

That is a little rigid, don't you think? What about moderation, staying within your calories and choosing healthy choices. I know for me, if I am craving a bite of chocolate, a small piece of dark chocolate kills the urge and keeps me satisfied. If I don't, I try other fillers and only end up eating more than I should…

ummmmm, this is a lifestyle change. You can't just tell yourself you cannot eat anything like that ever again! Moderation, eat back, stay within your calories and make good healthy choices! One small bar isn't going to kill you, a whole bag might! You know yourself best to determine if you can indeed eat one or two! I have…

That was perfect and I could totally visualize that! Thanks!

Awesome! How did you cook the tilapia? I am not a fish eater but bought some to try it again! Thanks!

Some of my favs: Greek yogurt Plain oatmeal with strawberries Sting Cheese Special K Fruit Crisps Fat Free/Sugar Free Chocolate Putdding with strawberries (tastes like a chocolate covered strawberry!) Veggie Chips Hummus and Veggies Cereal Tapioca Pudding (no sugar added) Pretzels and mustard Tomato Sandwich Slim Jims…

I agree....talk with your doctor! Everyone's bodies and medical history is different and you need the medical expert to guide you on this one! Good luck!!!! :-)

Ok, I know that everyone feels the same way whether they want to lose 20 or 100lbs.....but girl, you have got to STRUT your stuff....you look fabulous and have worked far too hard NOT TO! Keep it up and you will reach your goals....keep posting, you are an inspiration for all of us who aren't there yet! :-)

Several options I use: broccoli is very low and can be made several ways! I read to boil or sautee it in balsamic vinegar--I tried it and LOVED it! sauteed veggies with jasmine rice (add a few pieces of chicken strips!) petite sirloin is actually pretty low and gives you great flavor and taste! turkery burgers with lite…

Can you give me the recipe for this rice you talked about? Sounds YUMMY!

Thanks! I am going to go on and check there now! I take it you work for them? Any place to get coupons for a discount on-line?

Do they fit true to size? I am currently in a 24. Should I go down one with losing weight? Thoughts?

WW partners with SOME companies to include their points on the food....it is not on everything. I also found it was HARD to eat out unless you could find what you were eating in their book. The book had a lot of stuff but not everything, which left me guessing. Don't know about Jenny Craig.

Mine too! I have never tried granola though! I feel great know that when I eat my greek yogurt it is HEALTHY for me and not full of crap! I also enjoy cold sugar free/fat free chocolate pudding with strawberries! It tastes like a chocolate covered strawberry!

Very well said.....break the stereotype of "skinny" instructors!!!! Go for it!!

I have done WW twice now (one time was a success the other time was not!). I agree with the previous posts about the counting points is tiring because you have to calculate them and the second is the cost adds up and third, minimal support! I also found that if I didn't maintain visits at the meetings, I regressed.…

Yay for you to get started! I think what has helped me over my first few weeks is getting very familiar with this site and calorie content in food. You will be surprised at what you can eat at the dining hall! Also, exercise (i am not a huge fan but i am doing it and it is paying off!). Pace yourself, get familiar with the…

I am TOTALLY in! Beach trip in September here I come and I NEED accountability! How do we keep up with this page? I am new to this and want to be sure I don't lose this group! Thanks! HW- 299 Starting MFP Weight- 287 CW- 281 GW-180 Perfect Weight- 140 Can't wait to support one another!!!! :-)

Awesome idea to take the yolk out and fill with hummus! Never have thought about that before and I LOVE hummus!!!! Thanks! :flowerforyou: I also like to have them in the fridge for a quick breakfast on the go! Simple, filling and great protein!

I feel like that ALL THE TIME! My problem is that I can't sleep if I work out that late. I am assuming I am releasing endorphines and it keeps me awake...however, I usually have limited time to get the walking in! Good luck, do what you feel your body needs to stay healthy and lose weight! Good luck an SWEET DREAMS! Alicia

I am new too! Everyone can add me! That support would be FABULOUS! Alicia

Oh, I know that feeling all too well. I just joined MFP and am determined this has to work or nothing will, I will die fat. Then I think of my funeral, how large that casket will have to be and how bloated I will look. Is that how I want people to remember me? Do I want to die before I accomplish my goals? No!
