I just joined a DietBet too! I’m hoping it’ll be a continuous reminder that I need to get up and move! We can do this!

spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread.. lots of garlic bread.. and lots of spaghetti

I have always felt the same about cereal- I like it but a serving isn't very big and it's never been filling enough. Now, I'll have 1 serving but as a treat. If I want dessert and have the room, I'll have a bowl of chocolate cheerios instead of chocolate ice cream. That way, my chocolate craving is taken care of but in a…

Congrats, Mackie, and welcome!

It also depends on what you are eating your exercise calories back as...I always eat back some of my exercise calories.. how much depends on whether I've been a good girl that day or not. :wink: Basically, like others have said, listen to your body and do what it is telling you it needs.

Mine are: -Amazing Grass Green Superfood Berry Powder -Bailey's Non-alcoholic Chocolate Coffee Creamer -Bear Naked Chocolate Granola -Boar's Head Low Sodium Turkey Breast -Bolthouse Farms Organic Baby Carrots -Chobani 0% Vanilla Greek Yogurt -Fresh ground coffee and I am having every single item to eat tomorrow at some…

One of my biggest motivators is to be able to ride rollercoasters again too!!!!! :)

And if you mix in the chocolate PB2 to the brownie mix... heaven!!!!!

bump!

We have one every year, but I've never been able to go. They mostly hold them in FL, for some reason, although this past year, it was in AZ... they need to bring it north! :)

I remember coming home for spring break right after being initiated and walking around Petsmart wearing my chapter jersey. I was watching the dogs in doggy daycare (I was waiting for my dog to finish with the groomers) when this sweet little old lady came up to me and asked where I went to college at. I told her and she…

I just realized that I didn't introduce myself. If you can't tell from my previous comment and my name on here... as well as the color of my dress in my picture, I am a Phi Mu- Delta Eta from Georgetown College in Georgetown, KY- initiated Spring 2006.

Yay! Phi Mu! :happy:

As annoyed at the idea of hiring a recruitment consultant to help your daughter get into a specific sorority makes me, I definitly could see people doing this, especially if you want your daughter in a specific sorority (or your daughter wants to be). I know that on my campus, even though it was a very small college, there…

My favorite soup, when they have it, is the black bean soup! I also love getting you pick two classic salad and turkey avocado sandwich, no mayo. I have to say, though, that my favorite is the strawberry poppyseed salad-no pecans... it is, by far, the tastiest ever!

It's a two way street... yes, our bodies aren't physically designed to function off of man-made and processed chemicals... and a lot of manufactured food items are very processed and contain little "real" ingredients.. at the same time, life is also about moderation. If you want a freaking McDonald's hamburger, eat it...…

:bigsmile: Am I banned from coming, Lyndsay?

Sargento has a good Italian Turkey Burger recipe... just Italian seasonings (basil, oregano, onion, garlic, salt, black pepper), topped with 1 TBSP low sodium spaghetti sauce and 1 slice reduced fat provolone (their thin sliced provolone is good too). It's soo tasty!

I went to school to be an elementary age teacher and am working as an aid in a preschool classroom for students with autism right now in a different state... and my work is one of the major reasons I wanted to loose weight. I could barely make it thru the short days with the kids... plus I couldn't run after them if they…

I totally know how you feel. I would, like others have said, carry some healthier choice with you for when sugar cravings attack. I always have a serving of Blue Diamond's Dark Chocolate Roasted Almonds with me.. as well as really strong and minty gum.. if I just HAVE to have a candy bar of some kind, I get a skinny cow…

My weird older sister :wink: is an Alpha Phi from Florida Institute of Technology in Melbourne, FL My Grandmother is a Sigma Kappa from Georgetown College, in Georgetown, KY

I work as an aid in a Preschool Classroom for students with Autism.. so I get a workout every day!

The chocolate goldfish are delicious too! Especially if you eat some at the same time as the vanilla cupcake ones. It tastes like a party in your mouth!

bumb x 1000!!! this sounds so yummy!

A great resource for different recipes for different taste buds is skinnytaste.com.. you could also try the cooking light website or allrecipes.com.. they have a bunch of different recipes on there that are healthy. It's fantastic that you've lost so much already... know that you are doing a fantastic job. Instead of…

I gotta have one cup every morning.. fresh brewed with 1 truvia and I splurge on a good creamer. Every now and then, I'll stop by starbucks, but I usually get a tall skinny something... and now that it's hot out, it's iced.

I make these cupcakes constantly! They are sooooo yummy and you can't taste the pumpkin at all. All of Gina's recipes from skinnytaste.com are delicious... and have really helped me "diet" without feeling like I never eat anything good! :)

I have those days too... i start chugging water and chewing low cal very minty gum.

My realization hit when I went to the beach with my whole family and didn't have enough energy or strength to keep up with my 8 year old twin cousins who wanted to spend as much time with me as possible. I felt so bad everytime I had to tell them that I was tired and needed to rest. :(

I'm a coffee addict too and I can go without sugar, but I cannot go without creamer! I find a creamer that I really enjoy and just use a TBSP in it... or 1/2 a tbsp if it's a small cup. It helps me to start my day on a happy note. I would say that, like everything in life, moderation is the key. Also, using high quality…
