  • SW 150 GW 130 I have 20lbs left to my goal so this is perfect! I've been on a pace of losing 3lbs/month, so I may not achieve my goal in 3 months, but I love the support! Feel free to add me as a friend!
  • Sounds amazing! Thanks for sharing!
  • One idea if you don't want to do a complete fast is to fast from a particular thing, like sugar. Or try 100% raw for a few days. I myself cannot fast due to being borderline diabetic, so this could be very helpful. :) If I could fast, I only would for spiritual reasons and not as a weight-loss method. I believe in eating…
  • It will be 3 years this spring that we've been trying with no success. I did get a positive result on a PCO test, so I'm sure that is at least part of the problem. I just recently got health insurance again, so I will start the process of seeing what simple (inexpensive) things we can do to become fertile. I'm hoping…
  • I was a cashier for a couple of years. I never made any negative comments on purchases or asked nosey questions - that would be very rude and unprofessional!!! Sometimes I would make comments like "This looks delicious" or "You got a great deal on that" - because people like to receive honest positive remarks. It's all…
  • Two years ago I was my heaviest at just over 180. Now I'm around 155. My ideal weight is anywhere in the 125-130 range, which is what I weighed at age 20 and that was a very healthy weight for me! Good luck fellow 5'6"ers!
  • I was 26 and he was 34 when we got engaged. We were together 4 months as a couple, but had known each other for over a year. It was a 3 month engagement. Our third anniversary is this April. :love: Writing it out it seems so quick, but we are such a matched pair it didn't seem that rushed. I will say however, I didn't want…
  • I like the regular and 7-grain. I get it at my local health food store for just under $6. While that IS expensive for a loaf of bread, it is worth it to me (besides, I used to blow that much for a meal at Taco Bell or Sonic!). For those of you who didn't like it, what kind of bread are you used to eating? If you are a…
  • Thank you for taking the time and effort you put into this article - you are an excellent communicator and encourager! :happy:
  • Cuties! Those little clementines that are easy to peel and I can just throw a couple in my purse when I'm going out to keep evil fast-food urges away!
  • Cheeseburgers...but I make them at home now so they're way healthier than fast food! Usually I go with a turkey or veggie patty, whole wheat bun, deli cheese, tomato, spinach, and real mayo. Yummy!
  • I take a generic multi-vitamin, B-12, omega 3-6-9 and cinnamon. The cinnamon is because I'm pre-diabetic and it helps control blood sugar.
  • I want the little vertical lines on my abs :)
  • My husband was raised eating a lot of tv dinners and highly processed food. I grew up eating a lot of healthy and whole foods. Now that I'm returning to my "roots" and getting off the fast food, excessive carbs, and soft drinks, it is easier for me to adjust my eating habits. I also go to gym at least 5 times/week. Since…
  • When you set your goals on how fast you want to lose weight, MFP will give you a number of calories you should net per day. That will most likely be a lot less than you're consuming right now (which is why you are needing to lose) - there are a lot of reasons to not under-eat and lose weight too fast, which hopefully…
  • Thanks for the yummy ideas!
  • Another easy dinner is to pop some turkey patties in my Foreman grill and serve on whole wheat buns with a little bit of mayo and some sliced tomatoes, spinach and deli sliced cheese.
  • This is where I was 10 years ago: This is where I am today: If that's what my body looked like before, that's pretty darn close to what it can be again!!!!
  • There are some good breads (Oroweat) and granolas (Kashi, Bear Naked) with oats. You could probably find some good oatmeal cookie recipes too! I hate the hot cereal oatmeal also, but like oatmeal in other forms. I understand what you're saying totally!!!! I also always add instant oats to my sloppy joes - and no one has…
