I chop'em up and put them in eggs or just dip them in hummus. You could also do lean turkey meatballs and chop them and add it to that. Or I also do Mexican style veggie soup with it.

I just watched this episode and wanted to add that the female former D1 athlete started out at 331lbs not 350 that was previously noted.

Amazing! Thanks for sharing. This is so motivational!

Can't there be an activity for this without making it a personal intervention? I did an activity at the Y the other day as a volunteer for Healthy Kids Day; we had kids get stars for jumping jacks or pushups and we had an activity where they sorted plastic fruits/veggies and snacks as healthy etc. Pretty sure there are…

I wear my pedometer when I garden and it does count my steps so I just count that in my walking if that's of any use.

Lately I've been doing 2 whole eggs with 5 spinach leaves, a baby sweet pepper and a jalapeno (tablespoon of fresh salsa or a sprinkle of parmesan on some days)

Yes. I crave spinach/kale in my eggs and I crave at least one sometimes two apples a day. Before it was like yuck apples. The most hated fruit known to me. Now it's like, I *need* my apple!

I check the circular and whatever coupons I have. Once I got the hang of it I just bought the same things and I generally stick to the store perimeter (meat, dairy, fruit/veg) I only venture into the aisle with beans or coffee!

Oct Monthly total: 137.28 Original goal: 155 Last month I made 152 so I was planning to up it to 155 but that didn't work out. I've come a long way though so I'm going to stick to keeping it around 150 for the month. I also learned that 5 a day might not be reasonable for me right now, maybe 3-4 more like. Anyway, congrats…

Day 21 Daily Total: 5.05 miles Monthly Total: 104.8 miles (Slacked off a little on Sunday (3.5 miles) and Monday (4 miles) but back on that 5 mile grind) :|

My dog is like my child, so no. Yes, 140k could change your life but my dog has changed my life in ways that all the money in the world cannot buy.

Day 13 Daily Total: 5.3 miles (11,230 steps) Monthly Total: 67.5 miles Didn't think I'd get today's mileage in because of the terrible weather but indoor miles to the rescue!

Congrats! I can't wait til I get to 300 myself! Actually, 299. Seems like a dream right now.

I pretty much only wear Mountreks (sadly, they're hard to find lately because they were taken over by some company that never updates any of the stock but I try to find it on Amazon and 6pm.com). It hurts my heart to replace them but I'm pretty big so they wear down quickly. They usually come with a few inches of good…

Day 9: Daily Total: 5.25 miles Total for Oct.: 46.85 miles

Rainy evening/night-- feeling inspired by that 7.6 miles Asheea! Day 7 Daily total: 5.02 miles (10,615 steps) Total for Oct.: 36.6 miles

Sad I missed this post. Tried Hoka One One and didn't like it and of course my favorite brand (Mountrek) is impossible to find now that I need shoes more often!

Mine is like 2-3 blocks away, within the apt complex but I still rarely make it. Rather use what's in my apt. I can't imagine having to go so far out of the way. Just the time would bother me.

I wish people would notice and ask. Before, I didn't want them to even glance in my direction, now it's like, so much of my life/time is dedicated to this that it's like, come on, someone, anyone, NOTICE!

Started around 350+ (didn't own a scale til last month so I can't say for sure how bad it was), I had MFP set at 200 but I changed it to 199 the other day just because I haven't been in the 1's since like 6th grade. Might be nice. But realistically if I woke up at 250 tomorrow I wouldn't complain!

I line bowls with paper towels then chop up my romaine and other greens and toss'em in there (I also cover the top with a paper towel if I add baby spinach to this). I also wrap cucumbers in paper towels and they keep for like 2 weeks in the fridge (prior to this they were like melting within 3 days)

I wrap it in foil before putting it into a baking pan (toss my herbs inside the foil as well)

Never been skinny but I'd like to think there's got to be more to my destiny than fatness.

Loose skin yes. Stretch mark explanations. Comments about your size decreasing (ie, are you sick?)

Day 3: 5.25 Overall total thus far: 16.1 miles (averaging about 5 a day)

Yay! I'll definitely try to bump it up! I'm aiming for 5 miles a day for the month so hopefully I can hit 155.

I'm in! I've made 145.5 for the month of Sept already so I think I can pull this off for another month! Or at least I hope I can.

I've met 2 mini goals and have not rewarded myself but after seeing this board I think I'm going to go pick up another few pairs of good walking boots for the winter! Ultimate goal prize is in my ticker, hopefully the ability to do things I haven't done before, mainly, swim!
