I wouldn't worry about what other people think. I use my ipod when I went to the gym (which I used to 6 times a week) and just put my ipod on and went for it. When I first started I did probably 20 minutes,then some weights, and then on machine again for little bit. After awhile I did 30 minutes first at varied speeds,…

I have a treadmill and it works for me; but I much prefer elipitcal! Gives you both lower body and upper body workout. I had bought a treadmill before I tried an elipitcal at a gym! Like it much better. When my treadmill dies I will get an elipical next.

I have a smartphone and have the app; it is good for when I have been away without my laptop. Although I like using my computer better but it sure helps. When I go to work though I usually enter night before what I'm planning to eat and just add the few other things I might eat extra either by my smartphone or my computer…

I will drink diet coke in the evening for my treat or when others are having wine...I saw on tv it spikes your insulin which isn't good; so am planning on trying to even stop having it. I plan it ,but I think I have to go "one step at a time". I also was drinking my decaf coffee with a little equal in it, and have…

Congrats! Is a great feeling for sure. Keep it up :smile:

I weigh myself with basically just underwear and after my "business in bathroom".....figure it is true weight! always weigh myself within an hour of getting up in the morning.

Awesome! Keep up the good eating habits, etc.! You have to be proud of yourself! We are!

I still will eat at special occasions. Just "healthy portions" ; a little of this and a little of that is my treat! I still have wine and I snack at night a little at times, or will have a lemon square or whatever when out to a friends but I do plan on it and will eat accordingly before I go. I think it is all in planning…

WOW, WOW,:smile: WOW!!!!! Congratulations!

Makes sense to me! :)

So what I did while I was away from home....Have it; but as someone suggested have with a tossed salad and just eat half; and take leftover home and make a 2nd meal with another salad. Also have a glass of wine with it!....hehehehe Won't hurt and will really feel like a big treat; your craving and a glass of wine!

You should be able to find it when you go to message boards; and look under my topics....

mmmmm must try these sometime!

I haven't deleted anyone. I think we all are looking for support. We have things that may go on in our lives that may distract us; or things happen. When I have noticed friends that haven't logged in I have sent a message to them...telling them I'm thinking about them and hope they come back soon. Can't see what difference…

I will have a diet coke sometimes. Also love have Liptons herbal pure pepperment tea (decaf) and it's 0 calories and sugar...Also like water; so don't have a problem with that. I also will use 4oz of skim milk with Almond Breeze Vanilla 40z . Find the almond breeze little to thick consistency compared to skim milk which…

I have a Weight Watchers scale...It's great! Gives weight in 10ths of a lb too...lol It also stores,etc but I only use it as a reg scale...get nude and weigh myself at same time of day of last time...

Becel is recommended by the Canadian Heart Association. That is what I use, and there is also low salt,etc in it. It tastes the most like real butter to me. I use extra virgin olive oil for cooking most times. I will also use real butter sometimes; but overall I use the Becel and like it!

Tried that local friends and it says no such page and check address....was worth a try...but not working for me

Agree 100% with all you said....lol My best friend passed away; and have another close friend that's goes away all winter. The rest of my friends are in another city. Does make it hard. I do have some great golf friends; but in winter we don't golf here...lol

Definetly don't skip meals as you are planning...not good! Your body will make your metabolic rate slow down thinking you are starving it! Eat all your calories and you will loose your weight, as long as you don't go over very often... Good luck! Add lots of friends so you can get encouragement and help. People are very…

Noticed my sugar daily intake is much too high! After my yogurt I have in the fridge I'm going to start buying "sugar free" I think! Also so much sugar in fruits! :cry:

Amazing difference!

:laugh: Too funny!

I also weigh myself in my birthday suit and pick a day and try to weigh only once a week!

Awesome! Now you can say you wear the pants in your house!....hehehehe:laugh:

Congratulations! I would go with MPF's suggestions. If you keep on the lesser amount you most likely would keep loosing and you probably don't want to do that. To maintain you would need the little bigger calorie count. Keep up the good work and hope you maintain for years!

looks good....wondering how I can save this receipe.... :smile:

Hard to get back at it but you will! You have made the first step and are back on the MFP site! Welcome back! Great suggestions here as far as foods, but if you just make the usual foods with alot of difference spices/ or sauces (healthy type) you can get at small town stores. I try to shop the outside perimeter of the…

WOW! Great inspiration for mfp! :smile:
