Most of my cravings are for salty crunchy stuff. I love raw green beans with hummus (with olive hummus is the best), and raw bell pepper strips dipped in Greek yogurt. Once in a while I'll sprinkle sea salt on the veggies if I'm really really wanting salt. Also agree with the previous poster, special K cracker chips (and…

Try using nonfat Greek yogurt in its place. It works wonderfully, IMO.

Pre-"trying to lose weight" it was potato chips. Especially the Ruffles cheddar & sour cream, or any of the Cape Cod ones. I seriously could eat an entire bag without even realizing it. About four years ago, I pretty much had to just ban any type of potato chip from the house. For me, it's the only way I can do it. My one…

Just like previous posters, I mix them in yogurt, oatmeal (regular and overnight), salads, water to sub for butter/oil in some recipes...But smoothies are where they shine for me. I use 1/2 cup of oatmeal flour and 3 (I think?) T. of chia seeds per 4 cups of fresh fruit/yogurt/whatever is going in the blender, and make it…

Thanks y'all. I am generally healthy, no medical problems (other than 10 stubborn pounds LOL). And trust me I don't generally have this problem! Just feeling so crummy that the thought of food is nauseating.... however I'd force some food down if it was going to do any serious harm by not eating. (At the moment I think I'm…

I'm 5' almost 5" and 136ish. I don't have anything insightful, just echoing the frustration already expressed by many of how hard it seems to be to get the scale to move in the desired direction. I'm nervous about doing this the "right" way.... the only two times I've ever been successful at losing weight was when I was on…

Why did Duck Dynasty have to make beards the new "cool thing" to do?

Hey y'all, watch this! *picks up blowtorch and a beer can*

OMGoodness....grey beards, brown beards, red beards, it not matter!! All beards = sexy. Period. But not mustaches. :oops:

Happy birthday!!! *insert dancing cake GIF here*

You certainly don't look like it!! One year left for me too. :(

Hahaha, then YES! They absolutely would.

I wish I was brave enough to get a tattoo on my arm(s). <---- is a chicken.

Ahhhhchooo!

Prob not, I'm scared of heights. :)

I have used a FitBit for over 3 years and I absolutely love it. I have used it for logging all my food, exercise, and sleep (used to, not logging sleep anymore) and I couldn't be happier. I only joined MFP this week to try out the food logging and see if I like it better. So far I'm still a little iffy, but I'm giving it a…

I'm right there with you both. Nekked top o' the muffin here too, unfortunately. There is some great advice in this thread. I've been on MFP just over 24 hours, and I've already read enough to know that I need to start adding in resistance training instead of just cardio 5-6 days a week to start getting better results. How…
